OT Billy Mays, Dead

As much as I hate using Fox News, http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,529328,00.html.  Billy Mays died today unresponsive.  He was an awesome pitchman, with his show Pitchmen.  With Products like orange glo, oxyclean, and his own brand of shams.  He was the 'infomercial king'.  I was going to ask you guys, what your favorite product he endorsed was.  Personally, i liked the ESPN 360 commercial.  pure hilarity.  Discuss amongst yourselves!

OxyClean

That stuff works. There was some other kind of all purpose cleaner he used to pitch but it eventually came out in stores. I bought it and it worked too. No telling what kind of cancer it will eventually give me. But it cleaned stuff.

The Awesome Auger has to be one of the stupidest things I’ve ever seen on TV.

Maybe it does

…but for some reason I found his ad for it to be his most annoying. Maybe just because it was one of the more recent ones.

pffffft, no you wouldnt.

then youd change the channel.

mormons stole me and held me against my will with Oklahoma beer and 12+ hour work days.

With me it's the opposite

I hated his yelling so much I always turned the channel as soon as I heard it.

Why are you yelling at me?

I’m only 3 feet away.

Crazy...

he seemed in full health when he was on Conan’s show on Thursday.

A guy dies....

you dedicate a fanpost to him and your first comment is most certainly politically inspired. You’re pathetic.

HAHAHAHAAH

it was the first link i could find. It was a joke, but in no way shape or form am i making light of his life by that. I dedicated a fanshot to him to honor him by asking what people liked of him.

You criticizing somebody else's diary style

Hysterical.

...And where was he on the night of Mays' death?!?

Get the First 48 on the case.

Man, it’s a bad time to be a celebrity.

I think they should use this tool

to dig his burial site and bury him with one in his hand. A 21-gun salute with little flags that pop out showing the Kaboom logo would also be a nice touch.

Well we do know Vince can batter hookers...

I’m sure he could eliminate competition too.

I know there is probably zero correlation,

but with that dark ass hair and dark ass beard, he looked like the picture of health. Weird.

Since yesterday he was involved in that plane that had the blowout

…and he admitted stuff fell on his head, he very well may have died from an epidural hematoma.

by TRanger on Jun 28, 2009 1:33 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Yeah...

when I heard about him being in that plane crash too and having something hit him on the head, I was thinking it could have been something to do with head trauma whether concussion or something else.

moral of the story?

If shit falls on your head get it checked out or if you fall and bang your head like Natasha Richardson.

If indeed what happened to him on the plane is the C.O.D.

Not the moral of the story

He died of Heart Disease apparently.
