Thank you “Douglas”
Okay.
Hey doug, congrats on getting #21 for gaming on this video where you rank commercials
Oddly timed contract, but I oblige
????
I love how at the glue advert at 18:47, Twitch chat starts saying "GLUE POG" but then when Billy says "it's not a glue" they all switch to "NOT A GLUE POG"
like a fish swarm
it’s so funny they’re like a bunch of children naming things they see “GLUE!!!” “not glue” “NOT GLUE!!!” they all knew simultaneously to type whatever they see in all caps
Doug:So it's glue
Billy:SHUT THE FUCK UP!
@@semisemicoloncolon Twitch chat is amazing because it's all of the funny parts of children with a little more class for those dono jokes
Billy Mays: If you call right now I’ll throw up a tube of glue!
Doug: So I get more glue?
Fun Fact: When the car runs over Billy's hand in the impact gel commercial, it's not actually his hand. Somebody else had to put their hand under the gel because Billy refused to do it. That's why there's a super quick cut to and from a close up of the hand as the car goes over.
And the hand was okay?
I just assumed it was a fake car
Why the hell do you know this what
Were they ok
Been watching the vods now, makes the videos even better looking for the moments you know are gonna be good
I love how frantic infomercials were, it's a 30-60 second clusterfuck and you come out the other end with your credit card and whiplash
Could not have said it better if I tried
I want to like, but it is at 666 likes
@@demonicloaf2100 You should like anyways. The truth is, it will not stay at 666 forever. It will be surpassed. Do not let the fear of the future stun you from moving forward.
This comment is so good I’m imagining someone recovering from a Billy Mays commercial breathing heavily, eyes spinning, credit card clutched in hand, no memory of how it got there
I love the end where Doug was pretending to be Billy.
I think my favorite thing about Doug’s zorbeez read at the end is that in the few spots where it made contact without much pressure it did actually absorb the milk.
Idk it seemed like it was just wiping it onto the floor
My mom said when I was a kid (no more than a few years old) everytime a Billy Mays ad came on I would stop everything I was doing and silently watch.
He undeniably had a magic ability to SELL things.
The funny thing is, Billy Mays isn't the one who actually had his hand run over during Impact Gel, it was his manager.
Billy was genuinely nervous about having his hand run over (rightfully so). His manager pushed him aside, wore a blue shirt, and did it himself.
Billy was willing to smash his hand all day long, but the car running over his hand was the line.
even the cocaine wouldnt give him the courage to run over his hand
If the impact gel failed for the hammer, he might get some bad bruises, if it failed for the car his hand is GONE
That's absolutely fucking right, you don't do that just for an informertial, even if it works a small mistake and you're fucked
@@ciphergacha9100 I feel like a hammer would cause more damage tbh. The force distribution of the car would probably cause less damage than the strong impact of the hammer. But this is just me whose foot got run over by a packed minivan without breaking, so who knows
His manager should've pushed him another line of nose candy and he would've been on top of that
DougDoug Mays is the best cameo of any Infomercial star I’ve seen in my life. Sad that he didn’t triple the milk, triple the cash in the trash.
DougDougDoug*
@@2bruhiscool mf, nobody actually calls him dougdougdoug, some call him doug, some call him dougdoug, but you are a special breed my friend
Triple the coke
@@2bruhiscool okay so he tripled himself 🤔 so we got triple the value, that's fair
Yeah but imagine the cleaning
I love that Doug's content is just one man slipping deeper and deeper into insanity as the thousands of voices in his head egg him on with POG
😅
It's literally why I watch him, every video is just him vs chat
Yet another reason that chat is the main character.
@@DKdrop *main antagonist
Doug: "I dont need a hook"
Billy: "We'll give you 20"
Doug: "I need this hook"
AND YOU CAN GET TEN MORE EACH MONTH!!!
@At_Dead_of_Night_Fan sell it to impatient people.
@@At_Dead_of_Night_FanI mean, that is an actual killer deal.
Can we all thank Doug for wasting an hour of his life by cleaning up all the milk he spilt for a 20 second bit
With the power of zorbeez it'll take seconds
Just the thought of him cleaning that mess with none of the energy he had in this video is hilarious.
I made a similar mess the first night in my own apartment. Probably took him longer than an hour, and he's still finding milk stains.
I was cackling so much when I saw him start that bit. 😂
nah, with zorbeez it'd evisorate all milk in a 20 mile radius@@ian562ADF52E
Now this is pure quality content! Thank you Chat and your side character Doug!
This channel is just the spin off series based on the epic Chat series
During the Billy arc, both are side characters.
@@DenDenDenDenDen13 Nah, This IS chat's series, it has always has been, the name is only DougDoug for marketing due to Doug's success explaining the entire universe with food.
Finally someone who’s states the truth, that chat is the main character
Chat and doug are like batman and batcow. Like yeah he is there but he dont do much does he?
Can't wait for doug to realize there's an extra 20-30 dollars tied to 'shipping and handling.'
Service fee
don't forget the tax
"AND I'LL DOUBLE THE PRICE OF THIS PRODUCT, ABSOLUTELY FREE!!!"
I love how the tier list just descends into borderline serial killing effectiveness randomly😂
I was literally coming up with how I can use them for murder throughout the entire video
Zorbeez can be used to clean off the blood of the fallen victims
@@thegooseking818glad to know I am not the only one
@@Brejdu the thing for car dents?
Use it to get rid of the dents from when you hit your victim in order to either kill them or kidnap them
The “not tape” thingy
Use it to tie their hands and legs together
The puddy?
Weapon repair or feed them it to see what happens or just fix the chair you tie them to
The clothing glue
Fix clothes if they escape and try to fight back
If these infomercials didn’t air on the ID channel, then that was a severely missed marketing opportunity
The Hercules hook design is now under a bunch of random names at any hardware store and I have never used anything but those things to hang stuff in my house. They work so well, oh my god, my pictures are so sturdy, I love the hooks.
I was thinking the same thing, a couple of the products are still around but that one became generic picture hooks
Much like all good infomercial presenters, you are a major advocate of hookers
I can just appreciate the sheer commitment of doubling the milk for FREE
BUT I'M NOT DONE YET, I'LL THROW IN A 20 GALLON CONTAINER OF STAINS FOR ONLY 5 EXTRA DOLLARS
But wait there's more, IF YOU THINK That's IT IF YOU CALL WITHING THE NEXT 5 MINUTES THEN ILL THROW IN 1 GALLON OF ORANGE JUICE FOR COMPLETELY FREE
I need Billy Mays to rise from the grave saying "But I'm not done yet!'
You summon him from the dead by offering 10 grams of cocaine to Billy Mays’ grave.
@@GrassiestGrassy but thats not all!
I WILL DOUBLE MY LIVE TIME, FOR ABSOLUTELY FREE!!!
"AFTER MY SECOND TRIP ROUND THIS MORTAL COIL, THEY'LL SEND ME TO A TWICE AS BAD CIRCLE OF HELL, ABSOLUTELY FREE"
"AND IF YOU CALL RIGHT NOW, I'LL TRIPLE MY LIFE TIME"
I met Mays during a convention along with his bud Sully. Mays was such a chill guy who loves poking fun at himself for his persona. You didn't have to watch late night commercials to know who he is. He was just that well loved by everyone. The only thing you can hate about him is: he's got no haters to hate on.
I HATE THAT ABOUT HIM
and also probably the cocaine addiction, but hey, no one's perfect
@@yoshikagekira2311 hey, you cant control chronic addictions man
@@yoshikagekira2311 that’s a positive also he did not die to a overdose he had health problems
@@yoshikagekira2311 Who do you think convinced Snowflame to start?
doug unintentionally giving chat a list of items to become serial killers for free is crazy
Exactly. He should at least bill them a consultation fee
But for 10 bucks he'll double the list
@@vladyugay64 and he will double your milk absolutely free.
@@jojogacha974 but hes not done yet, he will milk you for absolutely free!
@@voidgamer7122 BUT I'M NOT DONE YET, IF YOU CALL, RIGHT NOW, THEN YOU GET 5 LITERS OF DOG MILK, ABSOLUTELY FREE! THAT'S 80$ OF VALUE, FOR THE PRICE OF 1999$!
19:26 the skydiver is in a suit made of impact gel, rendering him invulnerable
I can't believe DougDoug actually snorted coke and filmed a Billy Mays commercial. Honestly, he deserves an Oscar for his commitment to the role 35:14
Fun fact: For the impact gel car bit, that’s not actually Billy’s hand being run over, it’s Sullivan’s hand. Billy didn’t want to go through with the demo cause he thought he’d fuck up his hand. They go through the whole thing on the show Pitchmen that was on Discovery way back when.
But he did at least really hit himself with that hammer, right? Please tell me that not all of my boyhood days are a lie!
@@unclefranklin4575 oh no, Billy did do that demo. Sullivan was making fun of him the whole time though cause it was after the car bit 😂
Now we only need a tierlist on how washable different breeds of dogs are
Wait I thought I was supposed to dry the dog, leaving a path of clean.
Imagine a DougDoug collab with Girl with the Dogs. His high energy combined with her deadpan humor could be hilarious.
I read this wrong 💀
Some are dry clean only, delicate, or machine dryable. Don't mix them up.
Like machine washable? I’ve only ever machine washed mutts
The fact I just watched over a half hour of infomercials and I don’t regret anything, is a testament to how much I love Doug’s content
And billy may
I’ve watched this video too many times 🤣
“The Zorbees man is going to kidnap me and use all the Billy Mays products to hide my body.” -DougDoug 2023
34:53
This still has me dying.
not just you, but Doug too!
@@SuperBroy1ALL OF US
Your profile pic is a monster
The moment someone said "It's Zorbin' Time" we all knew how this would end lol
That ending is exactly why it's important to always watch the edited video even if you've attended the stream or watched the VOD 😂
29:42 - Billy missed a great line here. "if you only use it to make a vegetable tray, it pays for itself on the first day" should have been the rhyme.
after i watched that part I convinced myself that's what he said omg
my respect for billy mays when he misses that line: 📉📉📉
Doug and twitch chat are the best comedic duo they have such great chemistry and bounce off each other incredibly well
Billy Mays is the type of guy to rise from the dead screaming "But I'll double my lifetime, ABSOLUTELY FREEEEE"
New dnd character found d
And if you call now, I'll TRIPLE it! The value of life, for 0 dollars!
doug looking at all the milk spilled everywhere he's gonna have to clean with a face of pure regret is amazing
It was planned. The milk will leak into the basement so twitch chat will have something to drink.
at least he has to zorbeez to clean it up 😂😂
And then he DOUBLES DOWN!
That part had me laughing SO hard
AND WE'LL DOUBLE YOUR MILK FREE
My mother unironically bought the Big City Slider Station, she still uses it to this day, One of the only infomercial products that actually works
wasn't the magic bullet originally an as seen on tv product?
@@heliveruscalion9124 the bullet fired at JFK or a different magic bullet
@@weskintime4177 That's the correct one, they advertised it's ability to make a shot impossible for one gun to shoot but got caught up in a false advertising court case so they sent somebody out to prove it, and they were already in trial so they figured "go big or get sued".
i love that both doug and jerma are persuaded by infomercials so easily
we need a collab someday
You're not?
W Jerma enjoyer
Doug is literally coherent Jerma who actually takes his ADHD meds lmao. I've noticed their content is surprisingly similar to how unhinged it is, but as if it's on two sides on the same spectrum.
I'm pretty sure doug has mentioned he's a pretty big Jerma fan at some point
5:45 I adore how the Zorbeez commercial fades in during the introduction when you least expect it to
Doug "how does it work?"
Infomercial *immediately explains how it works*
I've been suffering from accidentally grabbing my shower head and spraying water all over myself, it's nice to finally have the solution I've been looking for. Thanks Doug
RIP Billy Mays. He partied like it was $19.99
edit: thanks for the heart, hopefully it will repair my marriage.
edit 2: editing takes the heart away, who knew?
Call right now and he'll DOUBLE that partying, ABSOLUTELY FREE!
@@scytheleaf But he's not done yet! If you call right now, HE'LL ALSO ADD A HANGOVER FOR THE SAME LOW PRICE OF $19.99!
That is brilliant
Deserves the Doug heart
this is the only hearted comment
deserved
My grandfather was handicapped and used the grabber in his scooter all the time when I was growing up. He made like $5k a month from the state for government work and just blew a lot of it on billy Mays and qvc so this was a trip down memory lane. Ive held half of these products and tried using them. It's so funny seeing these again
Were they good?
@@Loderyod most no, some were like the gripper
damn 60k a year, bro was pretty much making a salary wtf
Of course he is making salary he said he was working for the gov.
Genuinely shocked at how a twitch chat can be mature enough to decide something other than S and F tier
As a self proclaimed game developer I always think whenever I watch this video how cool it would be to have a game where the tutorial for each new item you get is an in universe infomercial in the style of Billy Mays.
God that ending was amazing. Props to Doug for destroying his counter 😂
Imagine the damage to the floor
Möp
but that amazing offer of doubling the milk really sells you on it
@@thundergaming3657that's a lotta damage!
i laughed to tears
"There is no chance that a skydiver would jump out of a plane with a glued together parachute"
Doug, I think you may be underestimating the power of cocaine
Doug’s Twitch chat has this weird quirk where they just get so fixated on one very specific thing, and it sways any and all chat related voting, choice making, etc. for the entire rest of the stream.
That headstrong and dedicated thinking is exactly why chat is the main character
@@mkhcfire9684 So true.
Also why Doug is in the category of his own
rigged
bruh that's just a hyperfixation
When he was talking about the awesome auger and did the grocery store bit you can just feel the ‘explained with food’ energy coming back
"We'll throw in a freakin drill for no cost, and no reason."
Hearing “You can double or triple stack ‘em, and watch your family attack ‘em” has just awakened a long lost core memory for me and now I need to go stare at a wall for a while
What could cause that?
For me it was the Billy Burger, which I'm now certain included cocaine.
I like that DouglasDouglas revived the mini-chat in the bottom corner, it really adds a layer of enjoyment to those who remember the story, and brutal murder by Doug's hand, of chat's clone child.
I like to imagine Doug waking up in a cold sweat hearing the Zorbeez ad. Either that, or somehow, Chat will convince him to get a Billy Mays cardboard standee, and he'll just get trauma seeing it when he remembers the ad.
Edit: That ending confirmed that Doug has PTSD from Zorbeez.
Billy Mays wasn't just an infomercial guy he was the infomercial guy. RIP Billy
“Handy switch” is just a hood way to say exceptional handgun
Imagine a world where Billy Mays got to team up with Phil Swift. We’ve been robbed of the most unhinged infomercials
T o o m u c h p o w e r
I'M GONNA RUN MY HAND OVER WITH A BOAT REPAIRED WITH ONLY FLEX TAPE
0:03 As someone who regularly watches doug, I can confirm that we hibernate unless doug is streaming
as someone who watches doug’s vids but not livestreams, i can confirm i only sleep, not hibernate
Well personally I’m just dead in between
I am sorry @theinsectking6715 you are wrong I simply cease to exist
@@spingleboygle I watch the streams and the videos I sleep and hibernate aswell as ceasing to exist and dieing
I think I got brainwashed into loving Oxi-Clean as a kid through infomercials
I will say that vince was right about the quick chop, it's really hard to clean some types of food off the blade if you can't get into it with a sponge and suddenly your strawberries taste like garlic
18:54 The product is not glue, glue sticks things together and keeps the connection point solid and rigid, preventing movement. This is great when using more rigid materials like wood or plastic, but rigid connections are terrible for flexible materials like fabric. The rigid connections take away fabrics ability to flex and bend around objects which is very important for things like clothing and blankets, whenever the material tries to flex, the connection made by the glue gets worn down and eventually breaks, leaving behind annoying glue residue.
The product is similar to glue but not the same, it can bend and stretch, which allows you to easily connect two pieces of fabric and use it like a single piece of fabric. The product does not stop fabric from flexing and bending, it connects fabric together while being barely noticeable.
It's actually a very good, useful product. it lets you fix holes in your clothes like they weren't even there without having to sow.
The putty is actually something I really wish I had when I played a lot of miniature war games. Any missing pieces can be molded with the putty instead, and you can mold your own special touches to give your models a lot of really cool posing options.
Did Green Stuff not exist?
@@7isAnOddNumberprobably did, but it’s just another option / possible use for it
With the putty thing and any other item shown. The whole psychology behind it is basically tricking the brain into thinking "Well if the product works under extreme conditions, then surely it'll work for anything I would need in a day." If it can handle this extreme then there's no reason it can't handle any mundane task.
"Died from a [spicy sugar] overdose"... That *definitely* explains a lot of his commercials.
Billy mays here with [spicy sugar] only just [19.99] and if you call now we will [triple it]
@@Entertainment0verdose what a steal
Spicy sugar? So you're telling me that Billy Mays died from..
Too many Mexican candies?!
@@meperleaper just need you to be BIG with me
@@unclefranklin4575 I wouldn’t call it spicy, it’s basically like a really overpriced version of the sweetest sugar
Doug is becoming far too powerful
Now he has (at least) two penises, an alter ego who turns games into interdimensional sex simulators powered by necromancers, and the spirit of Billy Mays possessing him whenever he holds Zorbeez.
@Dr. Sick what you don't realise is twitch chat gives doug double the power. without twitch chat he wouldn't have zorbeez
bordering on godly levels of power, DUDE HAS A LEFT DICK WHICH IMPLIES A RIGHT DICK
15:10 fun fact that wasn't actually his hand that got ran over it was actually Anthony Sullivan's hand because Billy was too scared to have his hand ran over
Was really expecting Billy to throw in a second health insurance set for free
Man I've been loving these super frequent uploads! Thanks Doug!
I used ChatGPT to come up with a script for the perfect Billy Mays infomercial targeted to serial killers:
Product: The "Clean Kill" Murder Kit
Target Audience: Serial killers and true crime enthusiasts
Script:
[The camera opens on Billy Mays standing in front of a black backdrop, wearing his signature blue shirt and khaki pants]
Billy Mays: Hi, I'm Billy Mays, and I'm here to introduce you to the most revolutionary product to hit the true crime scene in decades. Introducing the "Clean Kill" Murder Kit!
[Cut to a dramatic video montage of crime scenes, with ominous music playing in the background]
Billy Mays: Are you tired of leaving behind evidence at your crime scenes? Sick of being caught by the cops because of a stray hair or a tiny drop of blood? Well, fear not, because the "Clean Kill" Murder Kit is here to save the day!
[Cut to a shot of the product, which looks like a black backpack with various compartments and tools sticking out]
Billy Mays: Inside this sleek, stylish backpack, you'll find everything you need to commit the perfect murder. From gloves to masks to special knives and cleaning supplies, the "Clean Kill" Murder Kit has got you covered.
[Cut to a shot of the "Clean Kill" Murder Kit being used at a crime scene, with no evidence left behind]
Billy Mays: And the best part? The "Clean Kill" Murder Kit is designed to leave absolutely no trace of your crime. That's right, no fingerprints, no DNA, no nothing. Just a perfectly executed murder that you can be proud of.
[Cut to a shot of a happy customer holding the "Clean Kill" Murder Kit, smiling]
Billy Mays: So if you're a serial killer looking to up your game, or just a true crime fan who wants to experience the thrill of the perfect murder, the "Clean Kill" Murder Kit is for you!
[Cut to a shot of Billy Mays holding the product, with a big smile on his face]
Billy Mays: Order now, and start living your dream of being the perfect killer. And remember, when it comes to the "Clean Kill" Murder Kit, you don't need luck. You just need a little bit of planning, and the perfect tools for the job.
Why’d he not double his offer, or at least add an extra knife to commit the murder with?
I was waiting for him to say but I'm not done yet
So unrealistic, he didn’t even double it!
fake he didnt double it
BUT WAIT, IF YOU CALL NOW I’LL DOUBLE IT! THAT’S A $70 VALUE FOR ONLY $19.99!
Man, these infomercials took me back to my childhood. RIP Billy, a legend taken too soon.
33:17 Billy Mays stays true to himself as he swims in uniform to save a diver
5:23 i'm sorry but i am fucking dying at "big shitty slider"
I feel like I really shouldn't be surprised at how good DougDoug's Billy Mays impression is, and yet somehow I still am
I have legitimately waited months for this to be made into a video
This is a series of TH-cam videos that were streamed on Twitch and then uploaded to TH-cam
Now that's some quality Doug content
The one thing I always remember about Mighty Putty is some random forum post I saw on the internet:
It's just epoxy putty. It's nothing special. But seeing the commercial makes me think we aren't using epoxy putty to it's fullest potential. Like, in millions of years aliens are going to find the ruins of our civilization and be like, "The fools! They had discovered epoxy putty technology, but they were too set in their ways to use it!" before they gather up the artifacts and fly away in their Epoxy Putty spaceships and return to their Epoxy Putty Utopia.
That ESPN commercial was ahead of it's time
I had an absolute blast watching the original stream, and I thought that my laughter had finally subsided, but then doug started screaming and pouring milk everywhere. Quality content.
I am surprised that this was not a mess. Great job to the editor. This stream was a lot.
not a mess? did you watch the end 😂
@@Crazyclay78YTHe had zorbeez to clean it. So no more mess.
You'll get 1 Jumbo stream of Doug PLUS several clipped moments all for 4 hours of your time! But watch right now and you'll get another 30 minutes of Doug, absolutely free. That's over 5 hours of Billy Mays for only 1 lifetime locked in Doug's basement! And as a special bonus, Doug will include our Micromen Microfiber Duster! Free! It's great for basement walls! Divorce papers! Parkzers and more! And attracts Dollarydoos like a magnet!
But you gotta call now!
24:23 Vince said, "You're gonna love my nuts" tho. Iconic
30:49 That’s definitely a pet skunk with it’s stank glands removed. Probably smells better than your average dog.
Definitely considering nobody would want to voluntarily spray themselves with a skunk
But he was on coke
35:25 this sealed the deal for me thank you for filling the hole in my heart once Billy Mays died I was saddened. Thanks to him I could tape up my marriage together with the super tape
Doug pouring milk all over his apartment is just the embodiment of chaos
This is so amazing it should have gone on the main channel
Rest in peace Billy. You were a real one.
If each hook holds 150 pounds and you get 20, plus the 12 any time, it means that essentially for 20 dollars you can hang over 2 tons on your wall
billy is the god of “double it and give it to the next person”
*Double it ang give it to YOU.
Man that commercial at the end of the video killed me. I’m here crying and laughing so hard. And then he DOUBLED the milk!
A B S O L U T L Y F R E E.
I like how Billy just casually dives down no suit to save a man with mighty tape
33:48 "Okay, this has been a long and -heroin- harrowing* journey"
Fun Fact: The commercial at 23:35 is used in Better Call Saul Season 2 Episode 6.
One thing you have to remember about infomercials is sometimes the items they’re marketing are especially great for people with disabilities or mobility issues.
Things like the quick chop, the lightswitch, or the grabber are all helpful with people who struggle with fine motor skills. The classic Snuggie is perfect for people in wheelchairs. Obviously not every item, but I feel it’s important to look at it from that lens of helping people live safer and easier lives.
I never thought about that before!
i never thought about a snuggie being great for wheelchair users before but that actually makes sense. cool
I love how billy mays even when hes pretending to whisper hes loud enough to create distorion in the mic.
billy mays oxiclean commercials are genuinely nostalgic and comforting to me. I loved them as a kid because they were so common and so easy to parrot. I'd literally go around sometimes with "Hi Billy Mays here!" stuck in my head
12:05 also Hercules hooks are great. Just stick it in the wall and it holds pretty much any photo you want and easy to remove without leaving big ass holes in the walls
Also insane that we didn’t get to see Zorbeez vs ShamWow and the Billy Mays tape vs Flextape
“There’s no wrong way to use it.” That sounds like a challenge.
I'm an idiot... during the Jupiter Jack commerical (starts at 16:41), I eventually started hearing Ryu's theme from street fighter and thought, "wow, I wouldn't expect that on a commercial." Then, I realized it was the background music for Doug's video.
The world needed Billy Mays and the Shamwow guy to team up for the greatest infomercial of all time. Alas now it can never happen. Rip Billy. Gone but not forgotten.
I literally watched this vod yesterday wishing that it was edited for the channel. One of my favorite things Doug has made, true fever dream energy
Handy Switch in B is a crime that shit is iconic
13:15 the laser is for seeing if the is a piece of wood behind that spot reinforcing it and making it harder to put the hook in
You experimenting at the end with the video was actually really good. I hope to see more of this sort of experimentation in the future, never fear experimenting!
This makes me remember being super drunk with my roommates in college back in 2001 (yes, I'm a fossil as well) and just drifting off to sleep to the sound of infomercials for the "set it and forget it" oven. "It keeps two side dishes piping hot!!!!" That salesman had this creepy energy about him along with disturbing subtle on camera makeup that made him look like he was wearing lipstick. I'm sure cocaine was also involved.
I actually have a big city slider pan. The thing I always hated about it is that all the fat would render out of the meat and you were basically just boiling it in its own fat.
9:05 my grandma actually has one of these and it helps her pick up stuff off the floor cause she can't bend over sometimes.
My grandma has one too. It was originally for that purpose but now it's mostly to pet the cat.
