I'm conflicted about Vince, the Shamwow guy
On the one hand, I want to take a baseball bat to my TV when he appears. At those times, I'd rather chew tin foil than hear him say another word.

On the other hand, I have a grudging fascination with such pure unapologetic hucksterism. And he does point out the virtues of German craftsmanship. Attention must be paid.

What to do, what to do.

:crazy:

1. His head looks like an inverted butt crack

Serious. It looks like someone sat on top of his head and squeezed their butt cheeks together.

7. agreed
I don't like people yelling, why would someone think that is going to get me to buy their product.

I don't remember name either, and the only advertisement I think he does, is for any other channel then the one he is on (cause I turn the channel when I see him)

6. I love his line about "you spend $20 on paper towels a month"
and i always wonder if there really are people who spend that much a month on paper towels.

8. We (gullible) got 'em. They work.
We saved thousands of dollars on paper towels in just the first week.

9. I am in love with the Shamwow and therefore I hate myself
I've never got one, it would feel like cheating to my tired and true dish towels, but every time I see the commercial I yell, "WOW!"
