Should I order Billy Mays mighty putty.
Billy Mays is always yelling, always have to turn down turn the tv when he is on.

I wonder if he yells at home like that.

2. If mighty putty really works it would be nice to have around the house.
Billy sells a lot of stuff, just checked him out on the internet.

10. Why it is womens always thinks someone who really works would be nice to have around the house?
You need expand you's horizons

Maybe if you was more open-minded, you might could learn someone who doesn't work too much but sits on the couch drinking beer and watching television could be even nicer to have around the house

See what I'm sayin?

16. The way Billy talked about it, Mighty Putty can do anything.
I don't see why it can't cook.

3. Was thinking about it
I have a small leak in the PVC for my right kitchen sink. It would be great to just putty it up rather than call a plumber.

4. Pipes have to break on the weekends or at night.
I really don't believe it can replace a link in a chain but it might do the other things.

24. A while ago, I read that jerkoff drove a Bentley and lived in FL or something like that.
I'll tell him where to drive it.

23. He is.
You might have seen a few dozen commercials of the latest crap turdboy's peddling:

- Samurai Shark
- Hercules Hook
- Handy Switch ( this should be permanently embedded on his mouth, secured by Mighty Putty, of course )

11. I find it quite odd that everyone hires Billy Mays to sell their products on TV, but
he has quite a speech impediment. (Not that there's anything wrong with that...)

I told my wife the other day that I need to get some of that mighty putty.

13. HIS INCESSANT YELLING IS BAD ENOUGH...
...BUT WHAT REALLY BUGS ME...

Sorry, what really bugs me is the way he keeps pushing his hands at you, like he's shoving the product into your lap. It's a sales technique as old as the souk; if he can make you think in terms of the product being in your hands, you're more likely to buy it. Unfortunately, that's the only gesture he knows, so his ads look like a first-person view of an amateur boxing match.

19. My first thought was, "There's no way it can pull a semi!"
My second thought was, "But if it can pull a semi, how could the putty EVER be removed from an object?" :crazy:

21. We are not surpose to think about things like that.
I could never get the putty in right shape anyway, like for the coffe cup handle.

22. I'd buy him some to get him to seal his trap, but that idiot probably....

I hate that asshole.

And his stupid repetitive hand gestures make absolutely no sense.
