this thread is a little old and at the other end of this topic...

so, with the silly season upon us and some young barbers having early twenties birthdays with angst gravy and chips instead of cake and candles, what is the bestest ever present [i shall try not to write 'evar!!11!' in the body of the thread. o, fuck. sorry] you ever got, as a kid or as a real growed up person, for christmas, passover, birthday, name day, whatever day...??


i think the chuffedest i ever was at a present was a scooter for xmas when i was about seven. gee that was a good summer. thanks, santa!


and what is the bestest present you ever gave?? hmm, tougher one.

i gave my s/o an antique wedding ring for xmas early in our relationship and she was well pleased, and well surprised! go, me... [nine years later, though, i am living elsewhere, so unlike puppies, it was for xmas not for evar!!11! (oops, fuck. sorry again)]

I think the best present I ever received was a birthday present in 2001. My girlfriend took an old wooden cigar box with a lock and everything, painted it black, and covered it outside and in, in maps from a book about Marco Polo. Inside was a bottle of ink, in a special holder, a fountain pen with nibs, and art pencils. (I was learning to draw antique maps at the time). It was a complete suprise and rocked my world immensely.

I've never given anything all that special... the best I can think of was a plane ticket to Greece for my girlfriend for Christmas years ago...

Mine was a pony. She was a consolation birthday prize when my parents were getting divorced. I loved that pony. Thanks Grandparents!
