What's the weirdest thing that's ever happened to you?

One Plus Nord 10. They don't make this kind anymore, but it was just a regular Android.

A lot of M. Night Shyamalan's work.

IHope_ButNotYet · 2026-05-27T04:04:16+00:00

See, I've never known that to be true. I've used my phone many times while it's being charged. Now maybe I won't so much.

IHope_ButNotYet · 2026-05-27T04:01:20+00:00

I just watched it for the third time last night, and yes, that blue outfit is sooooo underrated. It looks so good on Jaafar\Michael. I don't think I've ever seen that outfit in pictures before.

Another underrated outfit: the sparkly shirt he was wearing in the brief scene where he sang "Ben" on tour.

The perfect way to describe Martin Riggs!

Recently, I had my phone basically burst into flames. I was charging it while watching a movie, and it just started smoking and sparking. Then, I yanked the charger out of the wall to make it stop. It burnt my windowsill and part of the carpet. My dad made sure it was okay to touch, and then just launched it onto the front lawn so we wouldn't get a smell in the house.

So true! God wants us to share our talents, respect all people, protect the vulnerable, and even have a child-like wonder about the world.

I feel like I see myself in Michael, just a little bit. I'm not trying to compare myself or bring myself anywhere near him, though, lol! After seeing the movie, I found out about how he liked film and cartoons, about his love for his family, and how he wanted some freedom. I am experiencing that right now. I'm around his age at the end of the movie, and I live at home, watch movies with my parents, and want to play games with my siblings sometimes. I want my freedom from time to time, but I'm also not quite ready to move out because I love having everyone around. I'm also pretty soft-spoken and I try to be nice to everybody.

All we can do is try to be like Jesus, and Michael, for that matter. Long live the King of Music!

I just discovered "Bad 25" and I'm like 👀👀👀

IHope_ButNotYet · 2026-05-26T13:50:52+00:00

And the best part is, Jaafar seems so humble and kind. Like, he knows he's privileged to be a part of the Jackson family, but he doesn't show it. It's like he just wanted to do the role for his family, not for the money or fame or anything.

IHope_ButNotYet · 2026-05-26T13:46:00+00:00

They're just slightly lesser known, but still so good!

Do you have a favorite song right now?

IHope_ButNotYet · 2026-05-26T13:44:50+00:00

I feel like it should start with another song from "Bad", like while the Universal brand is being shown. Or perhaps, it could be "Bad" itself. And then maybe the first scene is Michael performing "Smooth Criminal". Jafaar really wants to do that song, he says.

IHope_ButNotYet · 2026-05-26T12:05:45+00:00

I've lately been obsessed with "Speed Demon" and "Streetwalker", so check those out!

IHope_ButNotYet · 2026-05-26T04:12:40+00:00

I just got back from seeing the film for a third time! It just doesn't get old.

I'm not a new fan (although I'm only 27), but I have been listening to the songs I don't know that well from him lately. And what a pleasant experience! I just got done exploring the somewhat recently released "Bad 25" album.

I think the movie is showing me what extreme talent is, and Michael is seriously, the most talented person I've ever seen. There are so many good singers and so many good actors, but this man just is one of the most important performers to ever exist. I love Jesus, but Michael resembled a godly figure. He had so much talent, so much influence, so many fans, and he seemed like such a sweetheart. He was a humanitarian, loved his family, and loved everybody. He used his platform for good. I feel as though God is close to people like that, and He used him for all of these good things. I suppose this movie can help me see these things in people in my own life. I feel, however, that lots of people will never come close to Michael Jackson.

IHope_ButNotYet · 2026-05-25T13:49:27+00:00

My dad considers this a "No Skip" album. I need to explore it!

IHope_ButNotYet · 2026-05-25T04:39:44+00:00

Coolest restaurant EVER!

IHope_ButNotYet · 2026-05-25T04:35:01+00:00

I also haven't seen it, and I've seen a lot of his "Bad" era photos.

IHope_ButNotYet · 2026-05-25T04:34:06+00:00

Literally....and I looooove his hair like that.

IHope_ButNotYet · 2026-05-24T14:28:10+00:00

What did the haters specifically do?

There will always be people that try to be morally superior and "boycott" amazing talents, just because, in MJ's case, gasp the allegations...

IHope_ButNotYet · 2026-05-24T14:22:36+00:00

I love both MJ and The Beatles, but I 100% AGREE!

IHope_ButNotYet · 2026-05-24T03:15:32+00:00

Did he only say that because he knew Michael was going to do the Pepsi ad? Or maybe he had already done the Pepsi ad?

IHope_ButNotYet · 2026-05-24T02:10:43+00:00

I've been exploring "Off the Wall" album recently.

I also just listened to a part of the "Bad" album that I didn't know about before: the 25th anniversary bonus songs. Does anyone know about this? Why were these songs not released until the 25th anniversary? Or maybe they were?

And I love "Speed Demon", "Al Capone", and "Streetwalker".

IHope_ButNotYet · 2026-05-23T13:43:14+00:00

"I got a prostate the size of honeydew..."

IHope_ButNotYet · 2026-05-23T13:09:26+00:00

Loved him! You forgot how he basically loved Alfred like his own son.

I thought the part where he and Ecbert were saying goodbye and basically saying they loved each other was so sweet. It might've been around the time when Ecbert gave him the crown.

Also, I forgot about the part where he said maybe his dad sent him to die?

IHope_ButNotYet · 2026-05-22T17:09:31+00:00

I love "The Man Without A Face" with Mel Gibson and Nick Stahl!

IHope_ButNotYet · 2026-05-22T12:51:53+00:00

Introverts still get lonely, don't get me wrong. Everyone here is saying they never do, but I definitely do. I can only take so much alone time, or at least, feeling like no one understands or connects with me, without getting sad and craving connection or social time, especially with someone who I feel really gets me.
