Understood.
I'll be honest, I draw a blank when I think for myself. I don't really want anything in the normal realm of "stuff". However, we don't look at tools like chicks do. We actually like them. Get a chick a vacuum and you're a fuckinasshole, get a guy a cordless Makita drill, genuine happy. But these are the things we each need to do our self-appointed home tasks.
Hows he in the rechargeable drill department? Someone got me one two years ago, and it had a layout of about fifty bits included, all sorts of wizardry tips. Great gift.
Haha, I want a vacuum cleaner for Christmas.
Cool.
Well, asking for one eliminates the fuckinasshole lashback that typically accompanies gifting a chick with a vacuum. We as men seek to eliminate the fuckinasshole lashback from the gifting process.
We've had meetings on the subject. Spontaneous gifting of household appliances in lieu of frivolities is discouraged under manlaw. In gifting of household appliances, the subject must be broached by the female, and at least two separate affirmations must be extracted prior to gifting.
This was unanimously ratified under manlaw in the cohabitation accord of 1982, and passes unchallenged each revisit on a biannual schedule.
