Yeah- that damned Billy Macy... although I like to look at his rugged bearded handsome-ness... he's sure a screamer! What the hellz that all about? Only ones who scream more on TV are that fake annoying steroid-injecting buffed-up work-out dude who wears the hat with the fake pony-tail... or that crew-cutted/flat-top dudette Susan Powter who screamed "Stop The Madness!" at the top of her lungs for years. (at least Richard Simmons has finally piped-down somewhat, though! Jeez- what's with the OUT-GAGIOUS-ness?)
Whatever happened to that sensible idea on the old seventies perfume commercial that said: "If You Want To Capture Someone's Attention- WHISPER..."? Last edited by chubbyalaskagriz; 08-26-2008 at 05:02 AM.

Basic rule of advertising: If you want to capture peoples attention the ad has to be either very good or very obnoxious.
Being as the level of advertising talent is all but non-existent, lately, they are forced to go the obnoxious route. It's a sad indictment of the American public that it works. Billy is either the #2 or #3 (depends who's counting) salesman in media today.

I hate that guy!! What an annoying piece of crap HE is!!!!!!!!!
Yeah, that loud-mouthed jerk Mays was on TV at 3 this morning peddling health insurance and was goddamn screaming at the top of his lungs!!!!!!!!! Does it take THAT much yelling and screaming to advertise a product or service?!!!!! This guy is so goddamn annoying until it's not even funny any more!!!! What a jackass!!!!! For Pete's sakes, I truly wish that he would go find another line of work, such as picking up dog crap on the sidewalks!!! Wouldn't have to hear that aggravating loud voice invading my TV's at all!!!!!!!!! Last edited by Big Daddy's Kitchen; 08-27-2008 at 09:27 PM.

[quote] Oh no you did not.....  shame on you for knocking one of my favorite motivators...For shame, shame, shame Even my fiance can't stand him, well to each their own!!! I actually had a trip in an Ambulance one time and stitches in my head once I reached the ER from being in a hurry and not wanting to miss a minute of my morning workout with Richard Simmons!!! He has an empathy and compassion for over-weight folks and I love his bubbly up-beat self
