BILLY MAYS! Er.. Billy Mays
I have nothing against the guy personally but could he please go away. I'm not going to buy the Big City Slider Station or any other junk product he promotes. It is like the guy standing up on the stage selling a miraculous tonic to people in the audience. One that promises to regrow hair and cure the cold and keep away witches.
Cmon. Can we end the damn commercials?

The only reason I think he is the spokesperson for the crap he advertises is because he invented them.
I hit the mute button too.
His voice=

I am waiting for the new knife sharpener. Once that comes out, off he goes.

The "Samurai Shark" has been out for a little while now.
I just Google'd it and it has nothing but complaints.

"Your fat ass broke a chair? Why not just fix it?"
LMFAO. If he spoke like that I'd actually buy the products.

Police: TV pitchman Billy Mays found dead at home
| Quote From Source: | TAMPA, Fla. (AP) -- Billy Mays, the burly, bearded television pitchman known for his boisterous hawking of products such as Orange Glo and OxiClean, has died. He was 50.
Tampa police said Mays was found unresponsive by his wife Sunday morning. A fire rescue crew pronounced him dead at 7:45 a.m.
There were no signs of a break-in, and investigators do not suspect foul play, said Lt. Brian Dugan of the Tampa Police Department, who wouldn't answer any more questions about how Mays' body was found because of the ongoing investigation. The coroner's office expects to have an autopsy done by Monday afternoon.

As much as I hated his commercials the guy was still a legend. RIP Billy.
