Hey, we've all been there and it's not like they are people or anything.
 
But Billy Mays will always be the King of Pitch and his show on the Discovery Channel was actually fairly entertaining

It seems pretty legit, though they say that he never had any signs of cocaine use before. Maybe someone laced his food with cocaine to make him overdose and die. Maybe it's a conspiracy.

Or maybe he was just a crackhead.

I was really shocked to hear the cocaine news the other day. Not sure what to think about that.

But I still think Billy Mays is freaking awesome. He actually made you (well, me) want to buy the product, even though deep down I knew I didn't want or need it. Tongue

And I'm a horrendous tightwod.

Vince is pretty hardcore. He got arrested for assaulting a prostitute.

Now Billy Mays's death is thought to be linked to cocaine, though.

I love this show. Some of these "inventions" people come to Billy and Anthony with are just stupid.
For example: The locking cooler, to make sure the cooler is 100% locked so no one can get in.

Billy Mays: OK, so its locked...theres no way to get in this cooler.....but you can still take the cooler?
*dead silence*

LOL

Nothing wrong with beating up a hooker, we've all been there
She must not have loved his nuts (I really hope you get that)
 
Anyway, I think Vince's ads make for more fun viewing but Billy now has a TV show that's actually pretty entertaining plus he's from my area.  I don't know if I can vote just yet.

If only Billy would get one of those headsets with the the microphone, we'd have perfection.

Also Billy really needs to shout a little louder. Tongue

When it comes to hilarity in infomercials, it has to be Vince.

Although both are beaten by the Magic Bullet ensemble.

Ah Vince is scarier, well deff creepier. Also, he DID beat up a prostitute.


wtf?

Both make me want to remove my brain with a spoon, I'll go with Vince because Billy Mays is way overexposed, sort of a go-to spokesperson.
