Target’s Holiday Hostess on Crack
By
Paul is the founding editor of The New Islander, a New York City-based literary magazine for young writers in the ... We’re all familiar with Target’s above par TV commercials. There’s always some ubercatchy jingle with lots of bright colors and/or near subliminal message-type flashes and “dings!” mixed in throughout.
This holiday season, however, Target has definitely outdone itself by introducing what I’d like to call the “holiday hostess on crack.”
As you merrily watch the above clips in simultaneous shock and awe, I suggest focusing on her facial expressions. (The actress’s name is Maria Bamford. Some of you may know her from Comedy Central. Others might recognize her voice from CatDog, Daria, or Hey Arnold!)
I also suggest watching the commercials before having your Thanksgiving dinner. Watching them after may induce vomiting (out of excitement).

A Narcissist’s Love Letter
