As usual, my parents are asking for Christmas gifts for the family now that Thanksgiving is upon us. I always tell them to just get gifts for the kids, and not to get anything for me, but they insist on buying something for me too. That being said, I usually just buy stuff that I need, when I need it, so I don't really have much to give them for ideas.

ITT provide cool gift ideas that you'd want, or something that you use regularly that I might want.

TIA.

Could go with some shaving stuff. Send them links to the cream and/or aftershave lotion that I use.
Scuba diving is the coolest shit I've done not fucked up. If you have a high pressure job or you got to think about a million things all the time scuba diving will make it so you can only think about surviving under the water at that exact moment. It is fucking glorious. I also grew up a strong swimmer and on boats and fished in everything Water Wise since I was two so I'm biased also

Dad just gives me cash and I give him a Lowes' gift card. Usually cancels each other out.

My wife excitedly tells me last night "I ordered your Christmas gift yesterday, and you're gonna LOVE IT".

Spoiler...I ain't gonna love it.

If I tell someone to don't buy me shit, I wish they would just listen. If I want it, I go buy it. Spend my hard earned money on people that will at least act like they would appreciate it.

I know, right? Throughout the course of the year, I pretty much buy the things I need, and many times the things I want also. Just spend extra on the kids...I'd rather have them excited about something than me getting some stuff I don't really need or plan to use.

I'd love to go diving. I love snorkeling and have gotten to where I can dive down 30-40 feet, but have never been diving with a tank
Get to myrtle Charleston or the keys and I'm in. I'll tell you if you learn to dive in Charleston gulf stream you can dive anywhere in the world just about. I used the least oxygen of any new diver ever via Charleston Dive. Dude owner asked me how I cheated. I said I got high. We laughed. He offered me a job and to pay me to get certified. I'm a natural. I think I'd be the same w horses but I've never sat on one. It's like kicking a dog either you can or can't. I'd never kick a dog who didn't need to be kicked. I also carry bear spray in case I see a polar bear bc of climate change

This response is amazing...lol. All over the place and I love it! Diving is definitely something I could see myself getting into. Only problem is I live in the desert. Diving in Lake Mead, only thing I'm gonna find is some bodies with concrete boots from the early Vegas mob days.

Myrtle or chuck to Vegas isn't bad. Or didn't used to be. Hell go west. I'm just saying diving is worth a go of it. I lost all my gear but I've decided to take it back up late spring(may) and yeah I was just having fun w my answer. Tomorrow I love cooking the whole meal. So if I'm drunk enough to sleep by 8 I can be up by 4am and serve at 1pm. Or just get a ball a hooker and a turkey sandwich

A couple rounds near you? Maybe a new club you've wanted?
Rounds of golf is a good idea. I'm good with the clubs I have right now. I don't play enough to justify getting new ones since I hit my current ones pretty well.

Every time he posts, it's like he's talking to 3 people at the same time, and someone's transcribing it. Always gives me a chuckle.
