Weird Al Sings About Drones in the Only Holiday Commercial That Matters Anymore

Sorry. I don’t care how many heartwarming, soul-nourishing commercials retail giants put out this year. Weird Al prancing around RadioShack and singing about toys is all I ever wanted for Christmas. His absurdity is a perfect match for the absurdity of the idea that anyone goes toy shopping at RadioShack.

Oh wait! There’s suddenly one more thing on my Christmas list, and that’s a musical Parks and Rec spinoff where Shauna Malwae-Tweep befriends a zany RadioShack employee. Please, NBC?
