Commenter hell

I'm probably about to get pounced on over at Gawker, but I couldn't help but open my big mouth again. You see, someone when commenting on Paris Jackson speaking at her father's memorial felt the need to talk about her 'straight hair' and their lack of comprehension, like it makes any fucking different. This child is barely holding it together and you're speculating about her parentage? Clearly, class is not in session. I'm sure I'll be accused of being a bitch and not having a sense of humor and I confess I have made jokes in the past about the same topic, but seriously when referencing her speaking at his fargin memorial? Man, that's just shitty.

Now, I agree that the likelihood that Jackson is the biological parent of those children is low. (I mean that one boy [Blanket?] looks straight out of Village of the Damned with that peroxide blond hair). However, I also acknowledge that babies of biracial parents can come out a variety of shades. Heck, kids in general can come out with all sorts of baffling attributes. A couple of friends of mine have a daughter with ocean blue eyes. Mom's are green and dad's are brown. It took another friend three tries to get a kid with the same super-curly hair and brown eyes as hers (all still blond though, heehee). So while I appreciate people's curiousity, this need to put these kids' DNA in a box is disturbing, and unless you have a stake in the estate, ir-fucking-relevant.

Oh, and then their was the person who decided that Paris' speak was 'rehearsed' and came off as 'choreographed'. Um, maybe she did practice what she planned to say at the memorial service for her dad that was being simulcast/livestreamed practically all over the world. The comment "real kids blubber when their upset" just knocked me out. I'm glad my heart is bigger than that.

Later: I got ripped for accusing someone of 'viciously criticizing' a child. I was also told that asking "Who are those kids' biological parents?" is a valid question since it's rumored they were sired by his plastic surgeon. Not sure how that makes it anyone else's business, but okay.
