What you getting your Mrs for Christmas?

Sign in to disble this ad
If you ask the Mrs what she wants for Christmas and she replies with “Ooooh, a Sat Nav would be nice”, do NOT respond with any of the following if you hoping for some new musical equipment (or sex) in the next 15 years:

1. What do you need a Sat Nav for? You're always too busy at home baby-sitting or doing the washing and clearing up to go anywhere.
2. You don’t follow directions from me, why would it be any different if they were coming from a complete stranger?
3. I don’t think they have maps of our kitchen.

what is a Sat Nav? is that like GPS thing?

also I don't have to worry about any of the 3

1 - she works while I stay at home.
2 - I'm new to the area and have no idea how to get around so she gives me directions anywhere I go.
3 - I do the cooking ( hey she finally stopped puking after the first 3 bites!).

Anyway I was going to get her acoustic refinished, because apparantly the cats thought of it as a scratching post but then I found out it'd be roughly 600 dollars :/. time for plan B i think.

I actually got my Wife a large TV for the house, much larger than I would've gotten by myself, I probably would've spent the money on an MIA Fender if had I been single. Of course it will be good for her to see the cooking channel from in the kitchen with the pots and pans I got her too

But seriously, nothing major. My girlfriend is ridiculously simple and never wants anything. Probably write some sappy acoustic guitar song

Another new place. Fringe benefit is I can live there too. I guess I bought her enough trucks!

My new girlfriend of about a month and a half is a huge animal dork like me, particularly with reptiles (like me) so i found an epic shirt on threadless perfect for her, and i'll probably find some necklace or something. idk. lol
Girls like swarms of things right?

She tells me that, so far, I've gotten her a nice bracelet, a ring and some really cool shoes.

Many women get sucked into that strange world. I can't get pasta few minutes of it myself. Make a funny looking character, build him a house made out of hedges and give him nothing but a bar, a BBQ and a pool. Long before he dies I lose interest.

Although, if she ticks you off, here is a great way to get back at her. Put her sim kids in a room with a fireplace and remove the door, then make them start a fire. They'll resist at first, but eventually they break down.

Gift card from a spa. No chance of me buying the wrong size, color, or style and is still something she can talk to the friends and family about.

Kindle (treated myself to one too) and a new TV for the living room since the cat felt ours looked much better smashed on the floor.

It must just be the fact that I've owned cats that makes this hilarious. My cat decided my mom's $200 vase would look better smashed on the floor.
