MAKE THE SCREAMING STOP!!

At the end of a hectic day my family likes to eat our dinner together in the living room and watch the news and or Jeopardy. Then while chomping on our food, this chia-faced guy with a LEE press-on beard and a boom-box mouth bursts into our living room screaming..."HI, I'M BILLY MAY AND I WANT TO TELL YOU ABOUT KABOOM!" It so startles us that peas come shooting out of our mouths...the cat shoots up off the floor inflated like a furry blowfish and it sets off the alarm in my car that's parked in the garage....This is the same guy who in another commercial, puts fish hooks in the wall and shows you how to hang pictures from them! I don't know how to break it to ya Billy...You don't have to shout..YOU GOT THE JOB! By the time the commercial is over there isn't a dry pair of pants in the house!
And as if it isn't enough to put up with the music on the elevator...now you have a six hundred pound gorilla trying to sell you a retirement plan ON that elevator! Don't even get me started on that annoying "AFLAC DUCK!" trying to sell you insurance. His competition?? an upright GECKO with an austrailian accent also trying to sell you insurance followed by those so easy a caveman can do it guys! What is this "ANIMAL PLANET??" HAVE YOU MET ME??
Send me an agent who doesn't need his cage or cave cleaned out twice a day wearing an off the rack suit...Him I can deal with! I must admit that I do on occasion miss the Taco-Bell chihuahua! But come on guys... let's put the KABASH ON THE KABOOM!!! KAY???
