SO, since I've spared Teh Jounge
Dec 12, 2019, 11:46 AM
|

asking advice for most of the year, I don't really feel guilty about this one.
What are you gentlemen and scholars getting your wife for Christmas (or if you are a wife, what gift do you want)? I'm looking for multiple perspectives, so I need lots of answers from different types of people.
Thanks in advance for the post about trips to pound town and a ride down the hershey highway and all that stuff. Also in advance- no pigs of ICShe. #sorrynotsorry

Reminds me of when great uncle of ICT told me the story about nailing a woman from the bar and her accidentally farting and getting all embarassed saying "ooohhhh, I'm sorry" and without missing a beat, he replies, "don't worry baby, I usually make 'em ####".
RIP uncle junior

Drapes for the dining room and a massage gift card.
Dec 12, 2019, 11:59 AM

And she asked for both, and sent a link for the drapes. I know her well enough not to try and purchase something such as clothing, jewelry, etc. that elicits any level of aesthetic interpretation because she will then immediately NOT LIKE IT, and tell you such. No one buys her clothes, or anything decorative, etc. She's the gift card queen.
But there is one gift she will be guaranteed to enjoy.

Build her a huge deck on the back of your house.

Paint it black.
Every woman wants a big black deck. Just type that in your search bar if you don't believe it.

Made some comment once about BBC to wife, offhand. Son of started laughing hysterically. Wife looked at both of us with bewilderment. I looked at son weird too. ANYWAY, told wife that was short for British Broadcasting Corporation. Son cracked up even more.
I'm about 97.3% sure she knows darn well what it stands for. Only about 63.27% son knows.

There's a church in Durham named Bragtown Baptist Church.
A few years ago, they were having a festival and there was an old lady (in her 80's probably) wearing a shirt and selling shirts that said "I heart BBC."
I asked her how sales were going and she said she hadn't sold many but they were popular and several people had asked to take her picture.
Next year, no t-shirts for sale.
I was wondering how many of the Baptist guys knew but didn't say anything because they would have had to explain how they knew what it meant.
Like how you always invite 2 Baptists when you go fishing because if you invite one he'll drink all your beer.

If I bought her a bottle of any perfume the day we were married in 2001, it would still be unopened, I'm pretty sure. If I bought one today, she'd get mad and ask if I'm hinting that she smells bad or something. She hates flowers because they're a waste of money.
Seriously, I might try this for sheets and googles.

(ones that actually go places) so we've decided to "not" give each other any big gifts but he definitely bought some Tory Burch flats I sent him a link to and was asking questions about replacing the Kitchenaid mixer that wobbled off the counter and broke.
Little luxuries like nice bath products (bath salt, lotions), nice pajamas, cozy socks (got my MIL the ugg bootie socks), yoga pants, my favorite wine are always welcomed.

bubble bath, lotion, socks, and yoga pants? That feels like a stocking missing a "headliner" gift... we all know the kitchen appliance is a sucker gift. I guess the headliner is the shoes.
Give me another gift idea similar to the shoes.

I'm not exactly deprived. I actually love cooking and baking so anything kitchen related is awesome. The bike was at the top of my list and at $500+ it was the headliner.
This chick has some good ideas..

Unbeknownst to me, she is taking a trip to Vegas for some girl's bachelorette party in March and asked me to buy the ticket.
Done and Done.
I also bought her a few cast iron cookware items.
She got me a Pit Boss Austin XL pellet grill (joint gift between her and her parents), so both sides are happy.
