    Default Who do you know that always gives Bad Gifts?

    There are just some people clueless when it comes to gift giving.

    Who do you know that fits that bill?


    Education: that which reveals to the wise,
    and conceals from the stupid,
    the vast limits of their knowledge.

    I prefer not to give or receive gifts; it's just much easier that way.

    Doro-politics is not the sort of politics one ought to be pressured to engage in.

    I have an aunt that gave me, a twenty something year old man who goes to the gym....a can opener. Looks like a cheap one at that. But I still love her, she is in her late 90's now all the power to her for being independent thus far.

    I only give presents to close family, so I just ask them what they want - best for everyone that way.
    At the end of the day politics is just trash compared to the Gospel.

    Last girlfriend got me a penicillin shot.
    There, but for the grace of God, goes John Bradford

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    I'm wondering if more and more people are just going to abandon the practice of giving gifts entirely.

    Every time my uncle visits from Chicago for Christmas he gives me socks. One time he even bought them in front of me using my employee discount!

    I think he's still mad at me for not liking the $80 dollar haircut he made me get and not letting him give me a makeover when I visited him in Chicago when I was 15.

    When you are older you will look back and realize how great a gift those new socks were.
