First time I saw that commercial I thought to myself...that guy looks like he's been strung out on heroin at some point in his life and probably not too long ago, at that. It's a great product, though (gf uses it all the time). Also, you'd think he could afford to buy a decent shirt

[clanglee]

It's a great product, though (gf uses it all the time). : What? Heroin? or the sham wow? Yeah I saw this yesterday. My wife and I got a huge kick out of it. Dude looks like Willem DeFoe on a bender.

[AcesandEights]

What? Heroin? Yeah, it really loosens the inhibitions if I can get them hooked on the ol' horse. Dude looks like Willem DeFoe on a bender. Ooooh, good call!

[krakenslayer]

I feel a little sorry for him. Sure, it's his own fault for hiring a hooker, but I'm not sure if he should be the one in trouble seeing as the crazy bitch bit his tongue and wouldn't let go. I'm not surprised he threw a few punches just to make her let go, it would be a natural reaction I think.

[ProfessorChaos]

yeah, i'd punch a chick if she was biting my tongue like that. but i generally don't go for those type of ladies... have you guys seen the other commercial this goof does? the "slap chop"? it's like a kitchen appliance that slices, dices, all that jazz...anyway, in the middle of the spot, vince says: "you're gonna love my nuts" plain as day, as a stand-alone statement. pretty irritating fellow, that guy.

[MaximusIncredulous]

Whole thing might have been avoided if he didn't kiss the hooker. What John in his right mind does that?

[krakenslayer]

Whole thing might have been avoided if he didn't kiss the hooker. What John in his right mind does that? ^ Here's a man who knows the protocol.

Whole thing might have been avoided if he didn't kiss the hooker. What John in his right mind does that? Are you speaking from experience?

[Wooley]

Guess she didn't love his nuts, huh? I think that's a hospital scrub shirt. Probably had some blood on his other one, and they wanted him looking half way presentable for his booking shot. Does he have the look of someone who realizes life just defecated in his mouth, or what? Think he'll get to keep his huckster job after this? You know Billy Mays and that other guy, the one with the accent are laughing their asses off right now.

[MaximusIncredulous]

Are you speaking from experience? Actually... yes

[MoonSylver]

It's a great product, though (gf uses it all the time). 'Cuz it's made in Germany, & y'know they make good stuff!

[bassman]

'Cuz it's made in Germany, & y'know they make good stuff! Germany does produce Warwick bass guitars, which are the best in the world, imo. Sham wow dude looks rough when he's not on the tube.....

Germany does produce Warwick bass guitars, which are the best in the world, imo. Sham wow dude looks rough when he's not on the tube..... (For some reason that line always cracks me up.) That & "Cuz we can't wait around all day!" Why? What th' hell else you got goin' on that's so important?!?! (apparently picking up hookers & beating them up & getting beaten up in return...) What is it about TV pitch men . They get some cash in pocket & go nuts. First Dell Dude, now this guy. What dark secrets do Billy Mays or the PC/Mac guys harbor I wonder....Hurm....

[krakenslayer]

What is it about TV pitch men . They get some cash in pocket & go nuts. First Dell Dude, now this guy.. It's because they're they kind of people who're willing to sell their dignity for a wage and, by extension, a few minutes of pleasure.
