Billy Mays Dead at 50

He's not kidding... a hooker bit the shamwow guy's tongue. And then he punched her in the face. I think he looked a lot more fucked up when all was said and done tho.

But that's not why Billy Mays died, obviously. I have NO taste for mocking the dead.
 
He was talking about the shamwow guy, not billy mays...

And you should lighten up, I don't think the dead mind tbh =P
 
Vance Offer deserved to get his ass beat by a hooker. He ripped of his entire act from Billy Mays.
 
Vince's lines were gold.

"I don't know, it sells it's self."
"Your gonna love my nuts."

Real golden stuff.

EDIT: Actually, the second one is pretty classic, considering him getting beat up by a hooker;)
 
I don't see any similarities between Billy and Vince, tbh.

Zorbees and Shamwow. Same product, same commercial, different people, slighly different lines.
 
No, Zorbeez came two years before, but is an inferior product.
 
Billy did consider Vince to be sort of his rival. It was funny watching him rant about Vince on Pitchmen.

Man, I really miss Billy Mayes now :(
 
Of course no one would remember him. That was his style. It made him. Saying you wouldn't remember someone if they weren't who they were is pretty rediculous, IMO.

I just realized right now that he yelled in his commercials.

I just remembered him as the oxy-clean guy.

That's wasn't really what I was getting at. You said he ripped of Mays' act, but other then having the same occupation they don't really have much in common. Vince markets only two items, (correct me if I'm wrong on that) he looks like he's on meth, and he can't tell the difference between a strawberry and a mango, yet people still know who he is and and for the most part they remember what he says.

Mays marketed god knows how many products, but people only remember two of them and they remember that he yells.
Not exactly what I would call ripping somebody off.

Have you seen the Zorbeez commercial? Everything in the Shamwow commercial is in it. I didn't mean he stole Mays' style, which he obviously didn't. They're two completely different people. I meant that he stole his Zorbeez act. Only the Zorbeez act. That's it.
