Title: Use new Oxi Clean, and the Billie Mays is Dead!
Post by: Plumber X on June 28, 2009, 04:38:55 PM
No, but seriously. Died of head tramua at his house from a rough plane landing yesterday. RIP Oxi Clean's claim to fame.

Are they sure it was his head injury? It makes me really sad.

It's also interesting to note that he was just starting to sell health insurance!

No Billy Mays jokes.

It's true. Anyway, I have to admit that Mays' death affected me more than Michael Jackson's death.

Same. Billy was always smiling and had an upbeat/friendly personality. Michael was...kind of strange.

I guess he got Oxi-Cleaned!... oh yeah, no jokes... sorry.

When he hit his head, he must have yelled bam!


Yeah same here. I was really upset when I first heard it. R.I.P. Billy Mays

Well actually, if you watch Pitchmen, he was kind of a diva. But he was still really cool.

This SUCKS.

Also, now I feel really guilty about watching Billy Mays YTP, especially Suicide Putty.

This sucks on two levels: one, he's dead, and two, people will pretty much only remember him for the Oxiclean and the various YTPs, YTMNDs, and internet memes he inspired.

And I seriously think Vince Offer should take over Billy's role.

Billy's dead, Vince beat a hooker, that other guy with the accent is never on TV... now who's going to pitch me convenient household products?

But seriously, yeah, this is really sad.

Michael Jackson, Farrah Fawcett, Ed McMahon, and Billy Mays.  This is surreal.  Who's next, 2Pac? 
Title: Re: Use new Oxi Clean, and the Billie Mays is Dead!

Yeah, this made me sadder than Michael Jackson dying too.

Maybe we'll all feel better if everything somehow ties together. How about this: Long ago, there was a love triangle between Michael Jackson, Farrah Fawcett, and Billy Mays. One day, unprovoked but plenty angry, Mays lashed out at Jackson with a blast of OxiClean, bleaching the latter's skin. Jackson was furious, but bided his time for many years, finally retaliating when he sabotaged Mays' plane last Wednesday. Exhausted from the effort, Jackson swiftly succumbed to a heart attack.

Meanwhile, Ed McMahon stood by and watched.

Post by: superstarMASIAH on June 29, 2009, 03:27:22 PM
I was pretty sad to hear that he died.  Me and my best friend used to always go around school saying "Billy Mays is my idol." to random people.  We were also thinking of making a shirt that had him on it from thefabric glue commercial shouting in quotes "Can withstand storm force winds!!!".

What in the world is going on here? This is unbelievable, another celebrity...gone.

Rest in peace, Billy Mays.

...At least until David Carradine gets his way. By the way, doesn't Paul McCartney (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_is_dead) belong on that list? Just sayin'.

That was a list of the celebrities who, in the current frenzy of celebrity deaths, have had death rumors circulating concerning them.

Now, for the lighter side of things:

I read that he also has a son and daugter. And I feel sorry for them if they overhear someone cracking a Billy Mays joke. Geez, you guys, show some respect for the deceased.

From about a year ago:

I don't know, I think Billy Mays would make a good Mario. Facial hair; about the right body type; loud, excited voice.

Now he'll never get to play him in the sequel to the SMB movie.

Upon hearing this, Vince had no choice but to ice Billy. (http://shampow.ytmnd.com/) As for Mario, at least there's still Ken Davitian:

FBM certainly has a respectable point, but the awesome images are just... so... there. ;~;

Believe it or not, I think his son's a red haired clone. He was on the season finale of Pitchmen doing test pitches, and he is just like his dad. Somehow, I think he'll be the subject of season two.

Well... P. Diddy reminds me of Diddy Kong so no. And who the **** like Miley except for the reason that she's a girl? As for Britney Spears? The same reason as Miley. Ellen Degeneres is ok I guess fine for promoting individualism.

-Britney Spears - She's mad hot as of present, so good for her

Louie Anderson was almost as bad a Family Feud host as John O'Hurley is now. Probably worse, actually. John O'Hurley could at least be like Richard Dawson if he got a few scotches in him before the taping. Still, I don't want him to die, I just don't want to see him hosting my game shows. Bring back Richard Karn!

Seems like all the good creative stuff comes out when celebrities die. Wonder if there's any for Farah Fawcett.
