Buygone Ad of the Week: O Brother

COPYRANTER

The "Anti-establishment" Post-Grad slacks...My guess is Stokely Carmichael never wore this particular pair of protest pants while marching on the Capitol. Slack Power! OMG, what a movement-killing pun and pic! "Our Post-Grad Slacks have soul" purrs the copy. Where? Are they reversible? It's not just that they're plaid pants, it's that they're those plaid pants. In the history of tough guys, I don't think a tough guy has ever looked less tough—though his expression says he's ready to punch a hole in the wall as soon as the photoshoot's done. Even young Nick Nolte in his tight white h.i.s jeans looks like more of a badass.
