hey shut up, hey shut up

i'm sitting in the cafeteria, eating my french fries and watching the news. it's relatively quiet, with most people either watching the tv or studying and whatnot. and then, out of nowhere, the loud and obnoxious voice of billy mays is shouted across the room. and he is loud. i mean, seriously dude, for the love of god, shut up. or at least turn yourself down. did your parents never teach you the concept of an 'inside voice'? and can someone please tell me why every single product is suddenly being advertised by this obnoxious man??

no i do not want to buy your mighty putty.

i don't want kaboom.

i don't want oxiclean.

all i want is for you to shut your face and get off of my tv screen.

for the sake of my sanity, please just go away.

    he doesn't really scream like that all of the time haha. did you know a two-minute spot for him is worth $30,000? plus did you know his craziness has sold 14 million units over 60 countries? he turned oxiclean into a '$200-million-a-year brand. in 2008 their ads cumulatively ran for some 56,000 minutes on us television at a cost of about $170 million' according to forbes.

    yup. you may hate him but the rest of the world doesn't. personally i'm on the side of vince with the shamwow. for real, i watch that infomercial with my mouth hanging open.

  8. at least we learned that, despite being a loud talker, he was also a very good listener.
