Hollydale Gift Ideas for the Procrastinating Fool


FOR THE BAD PERSON

Now you can give a rotten person a gift that says, "Hey ... you stink". Of course the beauty of this is that everyone will laugh and your kick to the groin will go un-noticed except by the recipient. That is GEEEEEENIOUS!
This gum is actually pretty tasty, and has the ability to make your tongue look like coal too.



FOR BLOGGERS

Bloggers love uploading photos to share with other bloggers. That's just the way it is. The problem with that is finding someone to TAKE all of the photos where you project how happy and good your life is. Now, there is no need to find a table, rock, or otherwise to set the timed shutter camera perched up like a sparrow on a twig. The photo wand does all the work, and doubles as a walking stick. Trust me, with this baby, blogging will be elevated to a whole new peek of goodie shit! This is also great for the single folks out there like me, as each picture will make it seem like you're with "somebody" as you do stuff all alone. Makes loneliness happy again :-)


FOR THE WOMAN

These cleaning slippers are the perfect gift to place some kind of jewelry inside. After getting hit, you can then say, check the size to see if they fit ... and be persistent. When the lil' woman finds the surprise inside, she will melt because you have already lowered her expectations of yourself. The emotional roller coaster is the best way to ride a big tasty wave into a ladies heart.

After she has the new jewelry, she will then also love the slippers, and possibly wear them to bed. Yes I know ... women ALWAYS say they do not need or care about fancy / expensive jewelry, but I have yet to see one get diamond earrings and not turn into a puddle of goo. Men also know this guarantees them at least 5 get out of trouble free cards, so it's really a gift for two.


SpinMaster Air Hogs Zero Gravity laser controlled carFOR KIDS

The Zero Gravity SpinMaster Air Hog puts a new twist on RC as the Vehicle chases light beams on the wall, floor, or ceiling. You just point the light beam and watch the vehicle follow .. it also glows in the dark. How is this possible? The car utilizes air pressure (or the lack of it) to hug flat surfaces like Spiderman. No doubt kids will love this one. In fact, I want one too.


FOR MEN

While this "virtual reality" set of wide screen 3D video glasses will not excite a woman, but a man will turn into a hyped out, love struck orangutan jumping up and down with Christmas glee.

The box will be torn off in seconds, instructions tossed aside, and a video source will be plugged in before one minute goes by. Trust me ladies, if you want some hot french style kissing from your normally lazy and short attention spanned husband, get him a set of these.
If you would just as well prefer him to leave you alone in the recliner, get some DVD's too.



Of course, as much as I think these gift ideas are in fact quite good, this post is written with a bit of cynicism. I have always thought that Christmas has become way too commercialized, and actually a hard time for many. I don't think that shopping truly envelopes what the holidays are about.
I do think that this season can produce a caring and "giving with your heart" emotions to be elevated. This year, lets all focus on letting the people important in our lives know just how special they are ... and why stop there? Let's reach out to anyone and everyone. A hug, a smile, a helping hand? I realize one person cannot change the world, but maybe the small things we can do make all the difference.

(( Santa told me that ))

I love the coal gum.....I wish I could send that to people like my old boss and the bitchy workmates. Hehehe!
Does that photo wand really available in the market?
You are right, the true meaning of Christmas and the focus of this holiday should always be the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ. Unfortunately , people forget that.

I agree with you - Christmas is mostly fun because I get to hang out with my favorite people, not because of a bunch of gifts.

Having said that, those cleaning slippers are intrguing (only they need to be moccasin-style, they are not designed for Canadian winter use!). I suppose a pair of diamond earrings could be put inside them, it would make such a nice presentation :)

And thanks for the link :)

Bingkee: Yep, all of these are real products I found on internet shopping sites. I made one for myself out of a stick and duct tape :-)

Speedcat Hollydale said...

Lidian, how about Mukluks??

Sandee said...

I would hate those slippers for the cleaning woman. Just saying.

Christmas is about being thankful and giving. Not about shopping and getting. Just my humble view.

I loved the video. Some folks are just so talented at putting those together.

Have a terrific day and weekend Speedy. Big hugs. :)

Hi Speedy! I don't want the coal. Just saying. I've been pretty good this year. Not the best behaved but pretty good.

Have a terrific evening. Big hug. :)
