How do you buy something for the person who has everything? You buy them things that they should have, but would never buy themselves. I came across the Prank Place website and found truly hilarious, not to mention gross and disgusting items that you are almost guaranteed that hard-to-buy-for person doesn’t have.

First on my list is my boss. He lives in Colorado and is a world traveller. In fact, he even called me at 8:00 tonight to tell me that he’s out of the office tomorrow ‘cuz he’ll be skiing. He is virtually impossible to get off the phone with once he has you. I can say goodbye, later, adios, etc. 18 times during a call and he keeps going on. (I can be just like that sometimes too) I’m sure there is a Seinfeld episode about people like that. So, as a hint, I just sent him the Get off the phone sound excuse machine. The product page is pretty cool, with demos of the six sounds that it makes.

Second on my list is also my boss, but I already got him number 1 on the list. A close second for him was the misnamed The Official Countdown Calendar for Despondent Democrats and Other Thinking People (at the bottom of the page). I say misnamed because it says it is for “Thinking People”. It should say “knee-jerk-minded induhviduals”, as Scott Adams might say. I imagine that Scott Adams is not a thinking conservative, but I like his spelling of “induhvidual”.

There are other amusing things on the Prank Place site. The same page link that I had in the paragraph above had a dog poop calendar at the top of the page. It was mildly disgusting, but I’ve seen worse.

On the topic of knee-jerk socialistsdemocrats, this very un-PC T-shirt is amusing too. I had a doctor friend of mine from my BBS/WWIV days that used to say “Stupid People Shouldn’t Breed”. Same concept I guess.

If you have any other Christmas gift suggestions for the hard-to-buy-for person, feel free to send links to me.
