BITCH how are you gonna tell me that, shoe company? WTF just let me watch tv and live my 'pointless' life

oh and sometimes, I'd just rather NOT get out if where I'm going is THAT world out there

To quote Bill Hicks ... ( 9 months ago by thesoup)

To quote Bill Hicks: "He's going for that anti-marketing dollar! That's a huge market!"

I love this. The ... ( 8 months ago by JCJustChilling)

I love this. The way she looks off camera and the ending quote. Hah. So random.

But then again, ... ( 8 months ago by djm5714)

But then again, your being a conformist just by doing what Converse says...Hypocritical? I mean, I happen to like video games.

But obviously it's ... ( 8 months ago by sociopathicregret)

But obviously it's just a marketing ploy, because if it wasn't they would use a non-advertising related screen.

Lol thesoup, that ... ( 8 months ago by Psychonaut222)

Lol thesoup, that was what I was thinking.
Seriously ad guys, kill yourself. DO it now! Suckers of Satan's cock. Gotta love Hicks.

All you people ... ( 8 months ago by moozeditty)

All you people praising these ads are suckers. They are whoring out people's legitimate concerns for society to sell shoes. Hope you feel really badass and rebellious buying sweatshop-produced shoes from the people who brought you Space Jam.

this commercial ... ( 8 months ago by hehetimmy)

this commercial pissed me off when i saw it... it basically said that if you watch tv then youre wasting youre life away... well screw them

I think it's ironic ... ( 8 months ago by mickeymousey)

I think it's ironic that Converse designed this commercial, considering that Converse shoes are the "poster child" for items of clothing that define conformity. I mean, if you actually look at all those "I'm so unique," self-proclaimed rebels, you'll notice one thing for sure: they're all wearing their "I'm-such-a-little-rebel" black Chucks. And Converse still thinks they have the right to critique superficiality?

That Bill Hicks ... ( 8 months ago by SlaughterMcKill)

That Bill Hicks quote nails it. Watch less TV, buy more of our outdated-looking shoes, most of which were probably put together by Southeast Asians for fifty cents a day. Classic disinformation.

I totally agree ... ( 8 months ago by likeno1sbusiness)

I totally agree with you. They might have an arguement that someone might agree with if they aren't so arogant to think that what they say is right. This commercial was made so that angsty teenagers can feel rebelious when all they are really doing is pissing everyone off.
Anyway, if they are so against television, then why would they advertise their product ON TV!!!!!?

EXACTLY!!! ( 8 months ago by hehetimmy)

EXACTLY!!!

This ad in nutshell ... ( 8 months ago by SkyGunnerHero)

This ad in nutshell:
STOP PLAYING GAMES. STOP WATCHING TELEVISION.
*buy Converse*
DO SOMETHING TO HELP THE WORLD
*buy Converse*
GET OFF THE COUCH AND DO SOMETHING
*like, for instance, buy two or three pairs of Converse shoes*
Could the irony be any sweeter than what Converse has displayed in these ads?

Nope. ( 8 months ago by iwontdieinthisplace)

Nope.

maybe the fact that ... ( 8 months ago by likeno1sbusiness)

maybe the fact that everyone wearing the shoes, are pprobablky sitting home watching tv, playing video games, and altogether, not caring.

While what's said ... ( 8 months ago by ZZTX)

While what's said is a vastly under-expressed sentiment, slapping a corporate logo at the end of the commercial (however minimal in its marketing) is self-defeating. Most viewers are too cynical to take the message seriously otherwise. Now get off the damn computer.

This commercial was ... ( 8 months ago by SacrierJak)

This commercial was just fine till they took a stab at video games outta nowhere. Converse is just getting desperate since all the 90s kids no longer like to pose their not so "classic" shoe anymore. What a load of corporate marketing crap. Sucking and dying is the only thing left for this shoe brand.

If I wasn't saving ... ( 8 months ago by wbbrwsr1)

If I wasn't saving money for the coming great depression, I would buy a pair of Converse shoes.

Exactly. bye ( 8 months ago by Missevann)

Exactly. bye

i know sooo many ... ( 8 months ago by OutsidersLover12)

i know sooo many people have already brought this up, but converse is saying "be individual... pave your own path..... originality is cool... but while your at it, buy a couple pairs of converse like everyone else.... BUT BE INDIVIDUAL!" irony alert. i like the pageant commercial, until they put the converse sign at the end. i was hoping it was just an anti-pageant commercial. they are soo degrading.. anywho... back to converse and their hypocracy....lol.

The anti-commercial ... ( 6 months ago by Slaphappy1975)

The anti-commercial commercial. Brought to you by Nike via Converse. Obvious ad is obvious.
