Nuts From Underground
Last night my brain was assaulted by a commercial for THIS:

I wrote about the original Underground Comedy Movie some time ago, while attempting to figure out what the deal with the Slap Chop Guy’s name was, but I never would have guessed that Vince Offer would throw his Sham-Wow money behind attempting a second stab at his real dream, acting. 
For those who don’t recall, we’re talking about a fellow whose original effort at breaking into the movie business was so bad that he ended up selling it himself via late night infomercials; it’s actually how he got into the business of selling garbage no one needs.
I would love to show you a youtube clip of the original Underground Comedy, just to demonstrate how drab and soul-sucking it was, but Vince has had every scrap of it removed from the usual public video feeds.
– including the trailer.
As much as I laugh at “you’re gonna love my nuts,” this guy is reprehensible. You didn’t even mention his arrest, which I believe was either for assault or date rape.
Ugh, it’s almost worse than that. From http://www.hollywoodgrind.com/vince-shlomi-arrested-and-mug-shot/:
“Vince Shlomi, from Sham Wow fame, hired a prostitute named Sasha Harris (26), who bit his tongue when he kissed her and wouldn’t let go. Shlomi told police when they arrested him, and the hooker, that he had to resort to punching the escort in the face until she let go. Sham WOW!
– Shlomi meets Sasha Harris in a Miami club. They go back to his hotel.
– She propositions him for “straight sex.” He pays her a thousand bucks in cash.
– He kisses her.
– She “bit his tongue and would not let go.”
– He punches her in her face repeatedly until she lets go.
– He runs down to the hotel lobby.
– They both get arrested.”
Nice.
