Is a Frog Hat really a lame gift?

Sign in to disble this ad
If youve seen the GC ad at top, they claim that a frog hat is lame gift idea #47. I'm sure there are way more than 47 lame gifts we can think of than a frog hat... am I right?

1. Socks
2. Underwear
3. Wool Knit Sweaters
4. A rock (yes, even petrock)
5. Mini Slinky (not regular sized slinky)

Add to the list, if only to get your mind off the Post Count issue. All your posts will be considered valid!

Thats what Im saying! I mean, a frog hat might no be the most practical gift, but I'd rate it as, like, the 47th coolest gift I could get.

I agree with you on the alarm clock issue. Anyone who has a cell phone really doesnt need one anyways. Im glad I dont use mine anymore (it was a gift!), it had the most annoying alarm ever. I still am disturbed when I hear any similar sound.

I've NEVER received an alarm clock as a gift... but I'd be very happy with one if it was a Wifi media / internet radio kind...

If a frog hat is NOT a lame gift idea to you, I'm glad I'm not on your Christmas list. (no offense)

You dont even know the joy youre missing out on! Not only is it a frog, but it's also a hat. That serves, like, 2 purposes man!

I'd prefer a frog strap (padded, of course) I guess.

I use one. I want my cell phone off when I'm sleeping.

A Kermit frog hat seems quite acceptable.

I'm speculating as to where a frog strap might be worn - especially if one is not using it on a guitar. Could get ugly.

How about a frog purse? I'm sure all the ladies would love one.
