Life is messy, but your home doesn't have to be.

Do you think that would be a good tagline for Target?

not bad I guess. although I feel like maybe I've heard/seen the sentiment "life is messy" a few too many times already.

another problem I have with the tagline is that the messiness of your home has ~ 99% to do with effort and 1% to do with products/systems/anything you could ring up at Target. I was looking at a California Closets ad the other day thinking the same thing. I could fuck up a California Closet pretty quick.

i have always wanted a california closet
i see your point...

of course an ad's bearing on reality has little to do with its effectiveness

marie kondo says this to herself 100x a day i bet.

lolol. xp yes i think that can be true. it just seems SO obvious that it might work.

I'd agree

XD

that makes me happy

i've been decluttering. i feel so free.

I have this book and am going to sneak it on to the desk of the coworker who kept singing the praises of KonMari

One of the openers for Louis CK, whose name escapes me, had a good line about home organizing schemes. Something like "I hired a personal organizer, and she told me I should take all of the clothing in my closet and turn all of the hangers in the same direction. Then, each time I wear an item, I should turn the hanger the opposite direction. At the end of a year, any hangers still facing the same direction are articles of clothing I should throw away. Well let me tell you, if you can follow that system, you do not need a personal organizer, because you are already the most organized person on the planet."

That is awful comedy. Awful.
