As someone outside the US, and someone who hasn't seen advertisements in a long, long time - outside of memes that make fun of the shittiest ones - what is this about? I am always curious about how ad culture evolves, and having a bear literally talking about his shit-encrusted ass, on television no less, would be a rather fascinating escalation of the more publicly shown ad-culture to take into account.

It's a play on an old saying "do bears shit in the woods?".

At one time, humor was used a lot more in ads.
