In a move sure to make the guys in OK Go rage-shart, residents in what appears to be a subdivision in the American Southwest (palm trees, mountains, no snow) synced up a neighborhood-spanning light show to TSO ripper "Wizards of Winter" ​and filmed the whole thing with a drone.

It's as if an entire subdivision of Clark W. Griswolds set aside their egos for the good of Good Ol' Fashioned Family Christmas' everywhere. It's over-the-top, and ultimately pretty pointless. Basically, you're looking at the Most American Thing this side of Black Friday, perhaps ever.

For my part, ​"I'm gonna park the cars and get the luggage, and well,​ I'll be outside for the season."
