I hate this commercial, and it is hard for me to say why.

Something about it just seems a bit arrogant. Like the commercial is saying “look how cool these people are. They live in Manhattan and they spend their Saturday afternoon playing flag football in Central Park. Don’t you wanna be like them? Well... you can, by wearing LL Bean.”

Yeah, I spend many a night foaming at the mouth in fury at the arrogance of New England clothing companies.

Oh wait I never do that.

I think you’re being overly sensitive. Do you even know that is Central Park? Doesn’t necessarily seem like it to me.

I ain’t furious. I just hate the commercial. It rubs me the wrong way.

Honestly I don’t want to spend any Saturday afternoon playing flag football anywhere. I don’t give a frick where it is.

I’d much rather spend my Saturday afternoon fishing off the coast or in the marshes of Louisiana.

They should want to be more like me.

That's kinda what advertisements do. Make you want to buy the shite they're selling. It's like the entire point of it.

I’ve never in my life ever owned a pair of Crocs. Not that there is anything wrong with them, just not for me.

I feel you...it really grinds my gears when they show people playing flag football in khakis and a polo.

“It’s gotta be crawfish!”

- dumbasses who made coca-cola tailgate food commercial

This just in...advertisements are often stupid and miss an intended audience...but they hit a large one as well
