Hellfire Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 Nothing at all. Not only am I short on money, but I had no idea what to buy my parents. I can't buy clothes, because I don't know if they like them and they don't have time to read, see a movie or listen to music. So no to capitalistic Christmas, yay for love!

Athriller Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 Just thought I'd mention that that is a fantastic present — it's the kind of thing I wish I could give to someone. If I were still wearing my paper hat, I'd take it off. Cheers. As an avid hat collector, I appreciate the nobility of the hat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arab_freak Posted December 28, 2005 Author Share Posted December 28, 2005 What is it with those? Why do girls love them so much? I just dont understand them.... It's all just a very clever marketing ploy designed into attracting both genders of the human race. Much like Pokemon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weeyellowbloke Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 I was very dull in my giving this year, just stuck to what I know, music and film. Got my parents a dvd selection including Curb Your Enthusiasm series 2, Leon, Oh Brother Where Art Thou, and White Stripes at Blackpool. For my sisters friends friend who is living with us while my sisters friend, who was living with us until a few months ago, and my sister, original occupant, are away in East Asia, I got REM and the Coral.

jayseven Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 What is it with those? Why do girls love them so much? I just dont understand them.... I think it's the whole customising thing that people like. The place is kind of scary, as it's staffed by middle-aged women who seem to believe that the bears are actually real.
