What should I buy for a wedding gift?

[Masato]

Canuckster, you know the couple: Add and his girl, remember we got high in their apartment that night?

I'd like to re-ask the question;

- is it weird to give a book like 'The Prophet'?

I consider it to be a great resource for wisdom and insight, but 1 man's wisdom is another man's folly... etc.

I'm gonna go through with my plan I think, unless I hear or see a strong sign to do something else. I think its a great gift :D

Cooler if they don't. Some cash in an envelope and they are happier than a pig in shit.

Or do the promises...Just keep your ass covered, you artistic fuck.


CAREFUL WITH THE ARTISTIC SHIT! IT COULD COME BACK TO BITE YOU IN THE ASS!

If you got a firm handle on it though, 5 promises would be even cooler than cash, imho.

[Canuckster]

Ask add if he's got a gift registry set up anywhere.

Off to the wedding now...

THESE STUPID CLOTHES.

My god they are so fucking dumb. I can't move in this shit, lol

[Winnson]

What did you get them?

What did you get them?

Well, after all that fuss and indecisiveness, I scroll down on a page of the wedding website I had not yet seen before that read:

Your presence at our wedding is itself a gift, but if you would like to help us in our new life together there will be a box for envelopes at the receiving table.

So guess no one is bringing gifts - (classic Masato, lol)

Was OK, I will keep the books for future gifting opportunities... and I get to keep this baby all for myself!:
:D

Wedding was great, very romantic.

I got to sit at the 'cool' table (younger people, lotsa old folks there), which meant a nights entertainment of interacting and flirting with 30-something women getting progressively drunker and drunker, lol Some good food, free booze, touching speeches, and I even danced a bit

I swear to god though, formal clothing is the dumbest fucking thing. Everyone there was dressed up to the gills, and everyone there also looked totally uncomfortable. Women's heels were sinking into the grass, lol... they were always adjusting their dresses so they could sit on a chair, men were all collared/leashed in tight suits (it was hot), etc etc etc

I was seriously contemplating this and found it really quite odd that the most fancy/respected clothes are also the most uncomfortable/impractical. This is a fact, and it makes no sense at all. Would one suspect that at a fancy event, everyone would be dressed as comfortably as possible? We have the precise opposite in western culture. How the fuck did that happen?

Also, did you know that the typical way to tie a tie is called a WINDSOR KNOT? Perhaps after the 'royal' family?

- the tie itself is a weird fuckin fashion anomaly too.. how did the idea arise to put a fuckin collar around your neck and cinch it up as tight as you can? lol

Stupid clothes.

Good wedding.

Great couple.

...wishing them well

Wearing uncomfortable shit means you don't have to do shit you don't want to do. I think the noose was Henry VIII way hiding chins. It's entirely an agricularian thing.

what does agricularian mean?

I think wearing that shit MAKES you more likely to do shit you don't want to do. Yes boss, right away sir, etc etc. You already have the noose, no chance of slouching in those monkeysuits.

In the Conor McGregor vs Uriah Faber debate (clothes). I'll chill will Faber any day. Spend yo dollas on better things
