LL

...as in "Bean", not "Cool J". An LL Bean store opened here in Albany a few months ago, and there were news reports about throngs of people lining up to get in the door. People lined up for LL Bean? Really? That store has the planest clothes in the world -and I don't mean plain in the cool, minimilist hipster sense. I mean bland. Look at this chick below, as shown in a recent LL catalog. Blech! What's LL Bean's slogan? "Do you want to show the world that you're thoroughly bland? Do you want to pay way too much for what basically equates to grown-up Garanimals for lobotomy patients? Then come shop at LL Bean!"
