I had 2 dads, and both are gone now. And guess what ? They were 2 heterosexual dads. One of my dads was my biological dad, who made me and the other dad , my step-father is the one who raised me up. Jesus had the same thing, God was Jesus's biological father and Joseph was his stepfather who raised him from infancy into adulthood.
I feel very attacked with the peace sign shirt as a 44 year old from the Midwest. Honestly, you nailed it because I do like that shirt. Love your reviews 😂❤
ok its official. I found You because of Matteo, but you are officially my favorite of the Matteo/Nick Dynamic Duo. Congratulations Nick! Youre Number 1 in my heart!
Yes, I totally agree: the rainbow as a symbol of Pride is one thing, but then using six (or more) colors as the overall decorative pattern for a patterned shirt is just too much. One looks like an "ice cream man" or a "candy man" from the 1950s at best, or a style-conscious clown at worst, and either one is pretty high on the creep factor for a variety of reasons in the current era.
The "EQUAL ITY" segment killed me 😂😂😂 I live for your reviews. I hope that Target reaches out to you so you can brainstorm for their next collection ❤️🌈
The mug SCREAMS supportive mom to me. Like my mom would so buy that and then just "casually" give it to any queer kid visiting her house to drink out of and pretend it was a coincidence.
It's selling really well at our store! Give them credit for pulling through and still selling Pride merchandise at all. The two birds are two of the most collectible items out there right now.
It all looks like Target isn’t trying any more because they aren’t. The screaming bigots came for them and they flinched. Prior to last year, Target had great Pride merch. Then the whole attack on LGBTQ+ people as “groomers” happened and Target got scared. Now they’re just offering Pride merch and pandering so they don’t miss out on a little bit of money. I know it’s more expensive and not everybody can afford it (most of the time I can’t afford it) but try to buy from LGBTQ+ owned sellers on Etsy, Zazzle, etc.
That second shirt with pride written 3 times was terrible!!! The colors weren't even the rainbow, and were in such random order. They were all bad, but i found that almost comical. Dont know how those shirts made it to production. Also just want to say, you are the best Nick! I discovered Mateo because I fall asleep watching standup on TH-cam, the first time insaw Mateo I definitely didnt fall asleep lol. Then I quickly doscovered you through his channel! I find you both so funny and so genuine. You guys have both helped me feel more comfortable being my genuine self and coming out to more people. Keep up the awesome videos!
There was no thought into the production of these shirt... The bag is by far the best.. looks so much better when you took the stuffing out of it!!! Nice video Nick
Very disappointed with Target this year. Last year they had a ton of cute Pride items, and they were front and center! This year, a small rack in the back of the store😢 Great video as always, Nick!💛
Speaking of merch, what about a mug or shirt with the portraits that you and Matteo painted of each other and then you can place whatever pride indicator you would like on the back? Love you Nick, keep posting ❤🧡💛💚💙💜 Mucho Smooches!
Such a great video Nick! I agree with your reviews. Target could do better. I wish you had the bird to show in person because it looks adorable and something I would buy. Also, yes to those lights!!! Love those! Happy Tuesday and thank you for this great video! Love you! ❤😊
Omg that #Love tee looks like an unused design from a decade ago that they pulled out of the archives for all the 60+ year old grannies that have gay grandkids and want to show their support. In saying that, my own granny would have burnt the tee and me along with it.
OMG I love the peace sign one 😂😂 I'm not 40 yet though. No it's more hippie than pride. I want it though. Hahaha! Hahaha! Noo I like the LOVE shirt. 😂😂 It feeds a part of my brain. LOL
I think the mug is more for allies to purchase, some comments were saying for example teachers, and I was thinking as a manager in a workplace it would be nice have and/or see someone with. Also yes, keep reviewing!! I love your perspectives
OMG, you are the best , so funny 😂 😂 😂 Your videos are the best! The 'I'm going to show it to you one more time', line, I watched it twice and laughed as hard the second time as I did the first.
Nick, Target’s HQ is in the Midwest! They cater towards their biggest demographic which is midwestern housewives/moms. I feel like a lot of the shirts are designed more for the Allies like moms or aunts of the gays. Which is nice they can support without it being “too much” for a Sunday bbq and then target can make more money.
That bag got me to break my boycott this year. I was all "forget target" after their garbage, until two seconds after I saw it. I feel dirty, but I look cute.
What "garbage"? Being the victim of vandalism? So, you're blaming a victim for having PTSD? IF they released a Pride assortment in stores they KNEW it would get vandalized. SO to keep everyone safe in their stores they toned it down, which is a common response to trauma and abuse. This isn't the victim's fault. You should be posting to the jackass that said the Pride merchandise was for children, when it clearly never was.
I am old enough to remember a time that you didn’t need merch to be gay. Perhaps the 2024 Target PRIDE collection is so bad that lack of sales would be the perfect excuse not to have a collection at all next year? 🏳️🌈 Paul
I am interested in the dress Nick mentions, the linen-y one. Go back and get the dress. The rainbow flower peace sign had a Grateful Dead vibe. I love these segments. TY!!
I love your product reviews. I'd love if you also went back to trying different foods...That time you had spicy chicken with Bob was so funny! But after today, I'll never say "equality" the same way ever again without thinking about this episode! I've been imprinted.
I think the mug would be great for teachers to keep on their desks as a sign to kids that they're in a safe space.
That was my first thought
Oh stop
@@lazr4096never
Literally the only logical application
@@lazr4096Why?
Can there be a tshirt that says " Jesus had two dads and we think that's FABULOUS!"
I had 2 dads, and both are gone now. And guess what ? They were 2 heterosexual dads. One of my dads was my biological dad, who made me and the other dad , my step-father is the one who raised me up. Jesus had the same thing, God was Jesus's biological father and Joseph was his stepfather who raised him from infancy into adulthood.
these shirts are giving Temu vibes
Yes, this merchandise was definitely designed in China.
@@sipe34 and designed by straight people lol
I feel very attacked with the peace sign shirt as a 44 year old from the Midwest. Honestly, you nailed it because I do like that shirt. Love your reviews 😂❤
Same
I was dying laughing thinking oh that one is OK but I’m old!
I literally went "oh cute" and then he got me lmao
He's so right about the age this is something my aunt would wear lol
Famous Last Words: “Gays like to eat…”
6:51 “My fans in their 40s and 50s” I feel seen and for once I like it
I think we need a Nick Pride Merch line. I would totally buy something from his line
It would be a fierce slay
Yassssss
Like a blouse!
oooo yea!
get the interns to design it
Bingo!! I'd wear the flower peace sign shirt to garden. A 56 yr old straight woman.❤❤love you Nick...you are my sunshine.😊
58 year old ace spectrum gal - and hello garden shirt. 🤣 💗
(Except I've seen nothing Pride in my local Target. SIIIGH.)
Itty bitty tittle committee, I’m crying😂
"The Target Higher-ups! I know you're watching." 😂❤😂
Is there anything more welcome than a Nick Smith video at 6:20am on a Tuesday morning? I think not!
Totally. I always save it for later in case I need a day improver later on!
‘who’s buying this?!?’ You Bea, you are. 💜
The way I would look forward to and archive Nick’s reviews of products 😂
NO ONE IS SAFE
"so santa knows..." 🤣🤣🤣
It seems more like the flower peace sign is a Woodstock/hippie reference. ☮️
they were trying to be slick smh
Oh darn it you beat me to the comment. 😂😂
“Gays like to eat, so give them something to eat on” - the best marketing copy
ok its official. I found You because of Matteo, but you are officially my favorite of the Matteo/Nick Dynamic Duo. Congratulations Nick! Youre Number 1 in my heart!

The facial expression after the sleeveless crop top cracked me up.😂❤

The mug SCREAMS supportive mom to me. Like my mom would so buy that and then just "casually" give it to any queer kid visiting her house to drink out of and pretend it was a coincidence.
“I want you to look me in the eyes…” I’m scared 😂
That shirt is the exact shirt I would wear to garden. The truth of that take is flooring.
It's selling really well at our store! Give them credit for pulling through and still selling Pride merchandise at all. The two birds are two of the most collectible items out there right now.

I loved rainbows so much as an 80s kid obsessed with Rainbow Brite & Lisa Frank... it's so hard to mess up anything with rainbows. And yet... Target😮
That second shirt with pride written 3 times was terrible!!! The colors weren't even the rainbow, and were in such random order. They were all bad, but i found that almost comical. Dont know how those shirts made it to production.

That rainbow purse is so cute and perfect for concert venues where you have to have a clear bag.
12:34 WE LOVE HILARY DUFF IN THIS HOUSE
damn, you thirsty as hell
I died 🤣when
Nick described who would wear the peace t-shirt. 😂
Shots fired on the peace sign flower shirt 🤣
The last time I came this early I had to run out in shame 😂
😆 oooooooooookkkkkkkkkk thanks for sharing
Terrific Nick! Save for those last two items, Target "approximated" Pride, and they did it shamefully. You, Sir, are the best reviewer around!
4:10 You just had to drag her, didn’t you? You’re supposed to be a loyal friend 😂
I feel like everything but the lights, plates/napkins, and bag are getting returned... 🤣
“Ity bitty titty committee“ thank you. I had a crappy day at work and this brought laughter. I adore you 😂❤❤❤
“some intern made it on like the paint app“ 😭😭😹
Happy pride, Nick. I think the rainbow meaning shirt is the color puce. To quote Blanche Devereaux, "Is that puce? I always wondered."
There was no thought into the production of these shirt... The bag is by far the best.. looks so much better when you took the stuffing out of it!!! Nice video Nick
Very disappointed with Target this year. Last year they had a ton of cute Pride items, and they were front and center! This year, a small rack in the back of the store😢
Great video as always, Nick!💛
Love your videos ❣️the purse was cute. You have to show us your Christmas tree with the lights on it. 😊
Oh no, the PRIDE x3 shirt just looks like one of those school field day shirts they used to do back in the 90s😅
All I’m saying is that I think Santa already knows…
He sees you when you’re sleeping, he knows when you’re……
The background music gets me everytime 😂 ily nick
I love Nick's reviews! His opinions and how he expresses them are perfect! I always feel like he's Mateo imitating him though..... LMAO
Me a straight woman who buys those birds.. 😂
I could watch hours of this!! Great way to start my day, thanks Nick!! 🙌✨
That bag is definitely the winner! Can't wait for the next review!
Speaking of merch, what about a mug or shirt with the portraits that you and Matteo painted of each other and then you can place whatever pride indicator you would like on the back? Love you Nick, keep posting ❤🧡💛💚💙💜 Mucho Smooches!
Love the review videos. I watch them over and over...can't get enough of your reactions.
Such a great video Nick! I agree with your reviews. Target could do better. I wish you had the bird to show in person because it looks adorable and something I would buy. Also, yes to those lights!!! Love those! Happy Tuesday and thank you for this great video! Love you! ❤😊
That Love shirt gives me 1970's vibes. Your Target store had more Pride items than mine.
I know it looks like a t-shirt I wore back in the 70`s , then my older sister took it & lost it I was so mad .
Also, the flowers on the peace sign shirt are Poppies and Poppies are usually associated with peace.
Omg that #Love tee looks like an unused design from a decade ago that they pulled out of the archives for all the 60+ year old grannies that have gay grandkids and want to show their support.
In saying that, my own granny would have burnt the tee and me along with it.
Equal-Ity is sending meee. 😂💀
If I can’t find a rainbow nutcracker this year… it’s going to be hell to pay! Come on Target!
OMG I love the peace sign one 😂😂 I'm not 40 yet though. No it's more hippie than pride. I want it though. Hahaha!
Hahaha! Noo I like the LOVE shirt. 😂😂 It feeds a part of my brain. LOL
3:57 I understand what you mean because rainbow as a ‘colour’ is so tricky to pull off.
Never stop making these videos, Nick! Lol!
I think the mug is more for allies to purchase, some comments were saying for example teachers, and I was thinking as a manager in a workplace it would be nice have and/or see someone with. Also yes, keep reviewing!! I love your perspectives
OMG "Hey, gays like to eat ..." Too funny.
“Lackluster” is due for a comeback. It sounds meemaw-ish in the best way. ❤ U Nick! 9:49
OMG, you are the best , so funny 😂 😂 😂
Your videos are the best!
The 'I'm going to show it to you one more time', line, I watched it twice and laughed as hard the second time as I did the first.
Nick is the perfect person to do Target Pride Merch reviews. That's why I love this video.
That shirt with the red trim reminds me something I owned when i was 9 and had pigtails and waslearing to roller-skate lol.
oh my- Nick looked through the camera and saw me! I'm heading out to target right now to get my peace sign rainbow flower shirt to garden in
Watching nick bash target while doing my 💅 was a great combination
That was my first thought about the shirt! Give it to Mateo!😂
Nick's voice about the mini purse is so cute
Nick, Target’s HQ is in the Midwest! They cater towards their biggest demographic which is midwestern housewives/moms. I feel like a lot of the shirts are designed more for the Allies like moms or aunts of the gays. Which is nice they can support without it being “too much” for a Sunday bbq and then target can make more money.
“Santa know’s I’m a homo “ is my favorite saying now 🎅🏼🏳️🌈
Alright, Nick. I keep clicking on your videos. I love your attitude and style. I'm clicking subscribe now. I don't know what took me so long.
That bag got me to break my boycott this year. I was all "forget target" after their garbage, until two seconds after I saw it. I feel dirty, but I look cute.
😂❤

“I did another review video because *some* of you really like them.” I’m so glad for some of us.
I am old enough to remember a time that you didn’t need merch to be gay. Perhaps the 2024 Target PRIDE collection is so bad that lack of sales would be the perfect excuse not to have a collection at all next year? 🏳️🌈 Paul
I am interested in the dress Nick mentions, the linen-y one. Go back and get the dress.
The rainbow flower peace sign had a Grateful Dead vibe.
I love these segments. TY!!
Thank you Nick, loved it!❤😂
Gurl, that rainbow button-down could b a crop-top on you 😂
This is going to be a good one.😂😂😂
OMG IM ONLY AN HOUR LATE TO A NICK SMITH VIDEO LETS GOOOOOOO
Loved this! Thanks for posting links!! Very kind of you ❤
these things were designed by AI... weren't they?
........ WEREN'T THEY?!!?! 😵
Okayyyyy! Nick you look wonderful and yet it’s funny to see you in a “modern”’shirt 😂
Nick, you’re my hero! Agree with you 100%. Love you and your content. 🫶🏼
Now I want a safe space doormat
I love your product reviews. I'd love if you also went back to trying different foods...That time you had spicy chicken with Bob was so funny! But after today, I'll never say "equality" the same way ever again without thinking about this episode! I've been imprinted.
Safe Space: stay tf outta my cubicle 🤨👍
I think this was an excuse for Nick to make a video and get away with saying “Don’t ‘come’ for me” as many times as he wanted to 😂
Microsoft Paint out here catching strays 😅
Fully want the lights too 😂
I’m sorry, but I can see anything other than that led reflecting on the glass 😂😂😂 #HappyPride
You've singlehandedly made everyone want to run out and buy an Equal ITY pride shirt!! Or, maybe its just me?!
Another great video! I only wish you that would have modeled all the shirts.🎉🎯
June is Nicks month! Happy pride everyone
Thanks! You captured my feelings exactly!
There's no Target in my country. Otherwise I would be running there right now to buy that bag 😍
Nick you're right, the purse is the clear (and only) winner ❤
Nick you should design your own line for next year's pride!
Nick, you should wear the purse the next time you record "I never liked you" with Matteo & he should wear the rainbow shirt :)
The mug makes no sense but you can put it in the hospital cafeteria 👍🏽😂
