Alas poor Billy Mays, I knew him well, Horatio

Billy Mays, who gave us OxyClean and Kaboom, and many other fine products, has left us.

Age 50. Same a Michael Jackson. You might say they were contemporaries.

You may now STFU. ;)

RIP Billy Mays, many folks found him annoying (I did not) in fact he was for some odd reason imitated alot in my DnD group.

I hope police are checking the alibi of that Sham-Wow guy. He looks... off.

Hey, leave Vince out of this. He's had a tough year.

Wow, just reading his colorful wikipedia entry... Seems when Offer "Vince" Schlomi isn't suing people right and left he's smackin' hookers around.

My life is so ordinary.

I'm going to have trouble missing a guy who made his living misrepresenting products on shrill and annoying commercials. I'd rather he had retired than died, though. The world just got a bit less interesting.

Billy and Vince were on a local radio show less than a month ago doing PR for Pitchmen. totally nice guys.
The commercials make me laugh. I'll miss Billy.

[Aberzombie]

Although I found his commercials exceedingly annoying, it still saddens me to see someone pass at such a young age.

R.I.P. Mr. Mays.

[Guy Humual]

Celebrities are dropping like flies! Anyways Billy Mays might not have been a household name but you've probably seen his commercials. He often sported a blue shirt and beard.

Here he is Here Selling something you probably don't need but probably want after watching the commercial. Rest in peace big guy.

In loving memory of Billy Mays OxiClean is having a limited time offer: if you order within the next 30 minutes OxiClean will send you another bottle absolutely free. Just pay shipping and handling. Call now, operators are standing by.

ALL CAPS DAY

Does this mean that they will show all of Billy's infomercials on HSN? It's only fair with the all MJ channels right now.

HI! I'M BILLY MAYS,

MY LAWYER SAID THEY WEREN'T ALLOWED TO AIR MY INFOMERCIALS BECAUSE HSN COULDN'T AFFORD THEM!

BUT WAIT, WE'RE GOING TO DOUBLE THAT TO STILL NO INFOMERCIALS! CALL NOW!!!

[Gene 95]

And yes. I went there.

Also, yes, I'm a horrible person who feels nothing; shun me or whatever. But know this! Billy would have laughed at it!
