Oh my god. How did no one start a thread about this abortion of an ad? Kmart ads have never been good just like Kmart stores have never been worth shopping in, but now they just want you to know they completely stopped trying. They stopped giving a sh*t. The entire ad is just the same joke punching you in the face over and over, much like this guy. A joke about sh*tting your pants. Wow. Bravo Kmart. You managed to realize that "ship" and "sh*t" are a whole letter apart. Congratulations, you now share the IQ of your average 5 year old. Maybe if the guy said it once and the joke was that other people thought he said sh*t when he said ship, but no. The rest of the ad has people joining in on the joke. It's so one note. I grew out of thinking people sh*tting their pants was funny somewhere in my youth. Apparently the ad executives at Kmart never did. Aparently the rest of America didn't either since people think this ad is rip roaringly funny. TEE HEE IT SOUNDS LIKE HE'S SAYING sh*t! sh*t HIS PANTS! HAR HAR HAR HAR and then everyone starts jacking each other off in a huge back-patting circle jerk for their crowning achievement. Go choke on a bag of dicks Kmart. |

One big reason I personally never started a thread on this is because I hadn't seen it .. until now. Kmart, you have got to be kidding me. |

one of the articles I read basically said, "kmart knows their audience - people who don't like the commercial probably aren't shopping at kmart anyway". fair point. I thought it was funny.

Which is a good enough point. But at the same time isn't it kind of making fun of people who shop at Kmart? From the outside looking in it looks like they're basically calling their target audience low brow idiots. |

The Kmart near me is really depressing.
I dunno what it is. I guess it's a lot of things---the layout, the lighting, the fact that the store is usually nearly empty, the wilted plants in their garden department, the cheap miscellaneous sale items right as you walk in, the spills on the floor from the Icee machine, the fact that there's an Icee machine to begin with, etc.

^ One of our Kmart stores in town closed the other year, which I'm surprised it hadn't done decades ago. The other is on life support. And I agree about the depressing atmosphere... and for pretty much the same reasons.
The "drawers" lady around :21 sounds like she actually says "sh*t". It's like she dropped the "pped" from "shipped" and was left with "shi" plus a sound almost like a "t". Sorry for all the " ".

Maybe they're all like that. Maybe they all look like they belong in the Soviet Union circa 1965.

I don't even know where the nearest Kmart is to me anymore. They've pretty much become obsolete around here, which is likely why I haven't seen this commercial until Herza posted it.

They are really scraping the bottom of the barrel for commercials these days. This is worse than Booking.com by a far sight.

The drawers and nightie ladies sound like they actually said it - I wonder if Kmart wanted to see if they could actually put it in sandwiched between the shipped jokes.

"I just sh*t my pants for free" - I wish I was as lucky as this guy. They always try to charge me whenever I do as much as release a fart.

No Surprise there, those whiny homophobes hate everything that isn't Christian Conservative propaganda. I may not find this commercial funny but I refuse to associate with their ilk.
