i ask for peace on earth SANTA, YOU'VE FAILED ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!! no but seriously, why do we have to demand gifts for christmas. when one asks me what i want for christmas, i say absurd things like: - a legitimate special edition George W. Bush pubic hair - a flying pig - peace on earth - sexy times and people get the point: i don't fucking want their charity if you are 12 years old, it is understandable, as an adult working full time, i will buy my own underwear, but thanks anyways, Grandma...
i try to explain to people that i dont need anything but then i get the your so hard to shop for answer...
I think it's important to give people an idea of the types of things you like so they at least have a direction to go in. In my family we draw names out of a hat since there are so many of us. My brother-in-law drew me last year and got me an automatic air pump that plugs into your car ciggerate lighter. For most people this would be an ok, if impersonal, gift except that I don't have a car. I ride a bicycle everywhere and it doesn't have a lighter installed. I drew his name this year and wanted to get him a present that reflected exactly what I thought of his gift from last year. So after much thought I've decided to get him a plain white trash can (you know the kind you find in a kitchen under the sink). It's practical, but completely impersonal and toughtless.
I know this is the Men's Issues Forum, but I thought I'd put in my 2 cents. Guys, I think you are being too materialistc about this. As far as gifts from your girlfriend, my hsuband and I have been married for 2 years, and living ogether for 4. All four years, he's asked for the same thing. Me in a bow and a month of Blowjobs whenever he wants them. Ya know what? He got it all four years! Even if a girl isn't like me and doesn't love giving blowjobs, she's more likely to say OK if that's what you're asking for for christmas. Even if you arent' havin sex or dont want to ask for something sex-related, the idea is the same. Every guy says he doesn't need anyTHING. So think of somehing you wanna DO. A concert, a movie, a play, ask her to cook you a special meal, The possibilities are endless.
Lol, Maggie, My grandma does the same thing! When my greatgrandma was still alive, she would write me a check for $5 every year for christmas. And every year, she'd tell me not to blow it on "one of those records with the men who wear makeup on it" Sorry, not really related to the thread, just made me remember!
OMG.LOL! My gramma is no longer living as well, but that was really funny. Men who wear make up. Classic.
