Post your brilliant gift ideas
 

Like many OOTers I like porn, video games, a certain card game, fringe movies and alcohol. Sadly many of the people on my gift list do not share these interests. After many years of this wretched holiday exchange I still suck at finding gifts for people who have very different interests than I.

I can't be alone in this, do everyone a service and post your great successes and horrofic failures at pleasing the hard to buy for.

For a lot of girls a book is a good present, as long as you write something and sign the inside cover.

When in doubt, just pick up something cashmere.

Gift cards are terribly impersonal, I never liked to give them except when I just didn't give a [censored].
