I think the main marketing failure here is if others are anything like me, they had to read this several times to realize it wasn't advertising "un-sexy" pants.

Me too!

Perfect for when you need to think unsexy thoughts.

Yes, me too, but then I looked at the pants and thought, wait, those are kinda sexy.

I can practically throw a stone and hit that address. I think it's a currency exchange now.

Do you have your Bankamericard handy?

[jblaque.livejournal.com]

No, but I definitely need a pair of those un-sexy pants. Think they'd take a check?

The male is definitely a vampire. Just look at those eyes.
I remember wearing clothes of that type back then (shudder) even though I was merely a teenager and not a vampire.

This reminds me of that one Are You Being Served episode....

I saw this ad and automatically started singing that stupid Lady Gaga song my daughter likes, except I changed the lyrics a bit: "Just Pants, gonna be OK..."

My first thought was "how does she zip up her pants if they're backwards?"

It's 'coz they're uni-sexy. Guy or girl, front or back; it's all sexy.

I think it's quite the accomplishment that we've already integrated "Hot Dan the Mustard Man" into our everyday speech.
