Gift Wrapping Tips For Men

My wife, like many women, actually likes wrapping things. If she
gives you a gift that requires batteries, she wraps the batteries
separately, which to me is very close to being a symptom of mental
illness. If it were possible, my wife would wrap each individual
volt.

My point is that gift-wrapping is one of those skills, like having
babies, that come more naturally to women than to men. That is why
today I am presenting:

GIFT-WRAPPING TIPS FOR MEN:

* Whenever possible, buy gifts that are already wrapped. If, when
the recipient opens the gift, neither one of you recognizes it,
you can claim that it's myrrh.

* The editors of Woman's Day magazine recently ran an item on how
to make your own wrapping paper by printing a design on it with
an apple sliced in half horizontally and dipped in a mixture of
food coloring and liquid starch. They must be smoking crack.

* If you're giving a hard-to-wrap gift, skip the wrapping paper!
Just put it inside a bag and stick one of those little adhesive
bows on it. This creates a festive visual effect that is sure to
delight the lucky recipient on Christmas morning

Your wife: Why is there a Hefty trash bag under the tree?

You: It's a gift! See? It has a bow!

Your wife: (peering into the trash bag) It's a leaf blower.

You: Gas-powered! Five horsepower!

Your wife: I want a divorce.

You: I also got you some myrrh.

In conclusion, remember that the important thing is not what you
give, or how you wrap it. The important thing, during this very
special time of year, is that you save the receipt.

Are smart pots like air pots? You should put air pots on your list instead if they're not... everyone's ravin about them air pots, but they're too expensive for me to bother buying them...

I like wrapping as long as it's not a crazy shape... it'll just frustrate me if I can't get it looking perfect. Maybe it's because I like origami... and you all know how much I like bows ;3

Whenever I wrap presents, they end up looking like someone with one hand made them :(. So I just wrap them in tissue paper and put them in Christmas bags with tissue paper coming out the top and lots of bows haha! I love christmas :mrgreen:

whenever i give someone something that i wrapped myself they always give me that "aww, you tried, that's cute" look. i like to use a whole roll of scotch tape purely for my own entertainment. the edges are always jagged and the folds are always puffy and wrinkled.

some people are really sick, though. perfect folds, lining up the pattern, taking 15 minutes to place the bow and card, wrapping tiny things individually...just have the lady at the booth at the mall do it.

And a big rip off some dank before, during and after said trip makes things a lot more interesting.
More like a necessity, gotta have a buzz to shop. The only things I actually like shopping for are cars/motorcycles/guns...most of which I cannot afford anyways.
