    Wow, a lot of celebrities have been passing on these last few days and probably one of the biggest was Billy Mays. I always found his commercials mildly entertaining. The ShamWow guy doesn't hold a flame to this guy.

    :/... Poor guy. Even though his tele-mercials were kind of annoying at 3 in the morning while you sleepily watch some stupid MTV show, he'll be missed. I wonder what Oxy Clean or any other product from the same company are going to do for commercials now...

    Oh man.
    I read this thread while I was speaking on the phone with my mom.
    It's sad, but I had so much trouble keeping a straight-face while I told her.

    I mean, it's effing BILLY MAYS.
    He is the king of infomercials.

    The laughs he gave are priceless. Unlike Mighty Putty which is 19.99$.

    I mean yes it's sad that there's one less person to verbally harass me during detergent commercials, but this "ZOMG so many celebrity deaths so close together"

    Guess what? Real people die all the time

    A classmate's father just died. That has a larger impact on me than the oxiclean guy, a burnt out musician, or a pinup model from the 70's.
