Why he might be annoying:

He coined the phrases 'Set it and Forget it,' 'As seen on TV,' 'It's not sold in any store,' 'How much would you pay?,' 'Sorry no C.O.D.s,' 'Operators are standing by,' ,'Just 4 easy payments of...' and 'But, wait, there's more.'

Why he might not be annoying:

He got balding men to spray-paint their heads with GLH (if that doesn't make you laugh, you must be a customer of such a product).
Weird Al Yankovic wrote a tribute song to him.
Most of his products are reliable and are of excellent quality.
