Not wanting to irritate those saddened by his death, but…
:

William "Billy" D. Mays, Jr. (July 20, 1958 – June 28, 2009) was a television direct-response advertisement salesperson most notable for promoting OxiClean, Orange Glo, and other cleaning, home-based, and maintenance products. His distinctive beard and loud sales pitches made him a recognizable television presence.

Salespeople are celebrities now? Oh right, he has a beard. Disregard.

Dark Elite_H2 06-28-2009 11:49 AM

But he was a recognizable man, ya know...Not only for his *coughs* manly facial hair and extremely loud, but perky voice, but he got the message out for the products he was pitchin'...That, and he made a reality series...*blinks* Well, a bit awkward, yes...but interesting, nonetheless...

Fuzzle Guy 06-28-2009 11:56 AM

What you in the states call a good, friendly salesman, we in the Kingdom call a fucking irritating turd.

used:) 06-28-2009 12:47 PM

Don't worry, he is thought of as the latter by many here in the states as well.

But yeah, it saddens me too.

Wil 06-28-2009 01:24 PM

Let me guess. Sales of OxiClean will now top the charts.

It's the second stage of Scientology's plans.

SOON XENU WILL COME FOR US ALL

I would like Scientology more if they threw out L. Ron Hubbard and appointed H.P. Lovecraft as their prophet.

Seriously,

Apocalypse by Chthulu > Apocalypse by Xenu

Well, my comment would suggest I have.

Who cares, he was a freak, and he abused children, by inviting them to his ranch and smoking pot with them.

I'm not saying his music's bad, I think it's good music, but He got kind of weird, also I probably think he's really weird, because I never really saw how he was before his child abusing and his plastic surgery

So does MJ.


Anonyman! 06-28-2009 07:52 PM

You call that a beard? That's disgusting. That's not a beard. That's stubble. Nasty, creepy, black-person-but-on-white-flesh stubble.

Pilot 06-28-2009 08:33 PM

:(

That is really disgusting.

used:) 06-28-2009 08:40 PM

Moreso with the nose.

Pilot 06-28-2009 08:59 PM

His whole face is faux... yet completely fire retardant.

Egh.

Thanks for that one MAX

Anonyman! 06-28-2009 09:20 PM

His features just don't match up.

Remind me to never try to turn into another race via cosmetic surgery. You know, if the situation warrants a reminder.

Pilot 06-28-2009 09:32 PM

It's strange... in retrospect that picture is something I'd have expected you to post, Anonyman.

Anonyman! 06-28-2009 09:45 PM

Nah. That particular picture has always given me the heeby-jeebies.

My pleasure. Tempted to make it my avatar, but I don’t want to top the Big Bum one. Also out of respect for Michael.

Just had a thought. If there’s anyone in the world you could walk up to and declare ‘Your face!’ who would actually get upset…

MeechMunchie 06-29-2009 05:33 AM

If Jacko has a waxwork, it probably looks more realistic than he did.

Wings of Fire 06-29-2009 05:57 AM

Did.

AlexFili 06-29-2009 06:09 AM

Wow I would have never thought that Launch Base Zone's theme and Bad are one and the same. Good find!

From what I've found, the final closing theme for Sonic 3 is "Stranger in Moscow", Marble Garden Zone is "Thriller", Ice Cap Zone is "Who is It", Carnival Night Zone is "Jam" and Metropolis Zone is "Beat It".... and it goes on. The Youtube user Yuzoboy has a bunch of overlays so check em out.

Supposedly there's a story that Jacko was working on the entire Sonic 3 soundtrack BEFORE the first child scandal and ensuing media mania. Sega withdrew him from the credits and remixed the music a little to circumvent copyrights.

In the recent re-releases of the Sonic games you may notice that ALL the gameplay scores have been replaced with new LAME ones.

Jordan 06-29-2009 11:15 AM

I heard those replaced tunes, and they're awful. I mean, really, they're terrible. This is why I'll never get Sonic 3 & Knuckles for the PC. They screwed up badly there.

I only heard snippets of them and started crying blood; they also gave me the runs.

Mac Sirloin 07-02-2009 09:20 AM

Holy shit, folks, get this.

There was a tent selling T-shirts at Ribfest and they had a huge shipment of Micheal Jackson 1958-2009 shirts in on Sunday. All of them obviously made hastily and the tent was owned by some filthy immigrants.
