Tin snips to replace the fiskars scissors my wife ruined, because she doesn't understand the difference between high quality shears and something you use to trim sheet metal, another ratcheting screwdriver from China to add to my robust collection, a Harley Davidson shirt to go with the bike I don't have, and a box of whiskey oak wood smoker disks for a bradley smoker that I asked for, but didn't get.
But it's not about what people give me. Being the breadwinner for the past 30 years, its been my responsibility to make everyone else's Christmas special. After all, that's what it's all about, right?
If I want (or need) something, I just go get it myself. Saves me the trouble of trying to explain it to others, and the disappointment of still not getting it, even when I pay them up front for it.
Isn't that hilarious how that works?
