The ShamWow Dude Must Die

I have developed yet another pathological hatred for a late night infomercial spokesidiot.

The ShamWow Dude.

"Are you getting this, Camera Guy?" Mr. Manners likes to walk around saying that because he knows how horridly annoying it is.

He has the spiky hair, the skinny nerdy look, with I do believe some sort of ear piece to make him look techy, and he talks so fast you just know you are being conned into something.

"I just can't live without 'em".

I especially like his appeal to your image of yourself - you know, buy an extra one for your car, your RV, your boat. Those luxury items you have that you spend lots of time cleaning and drying by hand.

There was even a second rate ShamWow Dude at BuckARama; complete with fake hightlighted hair and everything.

He's almost as annoying as Dual Action Cleanse.

But what could be more annoying that constantly talking about nine feet of shit?

"I don't know, it just sells itself"

People, this guy talks about olympic swimmwers using it to dry off.
I used one while on a swimteam in 1980 and it was supplied by Speedo. This shit is not new. It is a shammy, period. go to autoZone or the like, they are a couple of bucks, have been selling there forever..

Must say however, it is much better than "Dual Action Cleanse"
