Elvis is Way Popular

Tagline from starpulse.com's new blog:

"The 30th anniversary celebrations of Elvis Presley's death turned sour on Wednesday when a 67-year-old fan died in the searing Memphis, Tennessee heat."


So, let me see if I'm reading this correctly. Elvis' 30th anniversary death party hit a bump in the road when someone actually died at it. Everyone was having a damn fine time celebrating the fact that Elvis is still dead till some random asshole had to go killing everyone's buzz like Carrot-top at a comedy show. Can you believe the nerve of some people?

Additional, starpulse seems to have a firm grip on the court of public opinion when it comes to Elvis. And the ruling is...people hate him. Why else would they celebrate his death thirty years later? That puts him at Hitler level in my book. The only people whose death I celebrate every year are that damn sasquatch and Victoria Beckham - you know she died after the Spice Girls broke up and was replaced by an evil cyborg semi-twin, right? I thought people like the swivel-hipped crooner, but as usual I guess I'm wrong. You learn something new every day.
