I'm dead.

http://www.latimes.com/news/obituaries/la-me-billy-mays29-2009jun29,0,6116879.story

He was found unresponsive in his home by his wife and he couldn't be revived. America has now lost a valuable infomercial salesman. Who will yell at us to buy products on TV now? Vince Shlomi the Scout?



...[tornado fang].

Image aside, RIP Billy. God damn, this has been a bad week for anyone considered famous in the public light. What's worse is Mays was also 50 and died in the same vague manner as Michael Jackson. No cause of death confirmed yet.

I agree, these deaths can't all be coincidences can they?

Someone has hired an assasin. I know it, but this chain is suspicious. SOMEONE is killing them, it's the chef, how else how can they die from a random heart attack?

By all means, first Micheal, now Billy. Both died from a random heart attack. and both were 50. Something is odd.

Workshop/DA/YT/Photobucket なにかんがえてるの!?
So its about ass now huh? EVEN THE ASS HAS 'EXCEEDED'!

One mention of LEGENDS and everyone goes batshit.  :\

Yep, every time when someone mentions that game people get energized for an apparent reason whatsoever. It's like this everywhere else, trust me.

It got really messy to find my sprite and comic topic, so it's in my sig.

Well, a lot of the people we know as famous are getting older. It's only a matter of time until they really begin dropping like flies. In this case, this was a guy who burst on to the TV yelling at us to buy OxyClean and Easy-off Bam. He only became famous because the Internet grabbed on to his loud ways and ran with it... sort of like an American version of Barry Scott. This may be a death that hurts the Internet more than people in real life, though it's still sad nonetheless.

I say the scout did it. With that sponge of his.

...When Larry the reploid accountant goes maverick of his own accord, he's certainly formidable during tax season, but he isn't going to provide X the challenge needed to make him grow as a warrior and reach his potential.

At least Billy Mays images won't be mounted on the front page of Photobucket, or be mentioned on the Radio followed by one of his best songs.

this is weird. of all the emotions this could make me feel, i'm only left confused, flabbergasted, even, at how this is even possible. four important people to pop culture (some more important than others) have died in less than a week. Billy Mays said it best: "You shitting me?"

Billy will be missed.

and yes, we should start protecting all the important, older celebrities.


What happens in Vegas stays on Youtube. I also stream on Twitch from time to time.

This year is really f**ked up: 2 famous Slovak people (actor - cancer, Writer - old age)
                                        1 famous Czech singer
                                        David Carradine
                                        That actress who´s name I forgot
                                        Michael Jackson
                                        Billy Mays (someone I hear the first time about lol)
.........I would really watch over Elton John, Madonna, George Michael, Paul McCartney etc.

WHAT. THE. [TORNADO FANG]ING. HELL...?!

Although the police suspect no foul play, I agree that something is up. Although I never really thought that real Death Notes actually existed before, I'm having second thoughts now. If a Death Note really IS involved, there is no way to protect any other celebrities.
But why Celebrities? I'm thinking that it might be somebody is doing this outside of the country (will not say the "T" word in case of banning or some government official tracking my I.P address and arresting me). This is just too damn suspicious.

This one is just a freak accident, likely. Still it's a bit soon to say, but I wouldn't be surprised if it is ruled as one.

What the hell's going on!? Is the Grim Reaper trying to kill everyone because of our economy!? I heard rumors about this, at first it was a joke but it turns out that the news was real. Aww man, there's goes my favorite meme. T_T
