In the Ft. Wayne mall there's a "Build a Bear" store. Basically...you customize a stuffed animals...naming it, choosing different shit for it to wear, even addings sounds and shit like that. That was the route that I took this year and it was quite a hit. If you think about it, it really is an amazing gift guaranteed to impress. I highly suggest it.

I dont have a girlfriend but i got a gift for a girl and sure enough it was a build-a-bear. I bet your bear was darn cute cap'n.

BigDongedHoe · 12-23-2002, 04:45 PM

Although this is extremely fruity you can never go wrong with making a collage of pictures and putting it in a big picture frame. It shows your ingenuity as well as a point that you spent a lot of time hinting that you care quite a bit about this girl. Some guys may not have a lot of pictures of the g/f's but if you did, than this would surely impress her a lot.

My bear was actually a bunny...and the goings on in the store are irrelevent

FROM A GIRL'S PERSPECTIVE:

you guys all have great ideas of what to get a girl...and BDH yours was good and true. the thought is what counts, if you spend a lot of time on something and really put thought into it the girl will appreciate it more no matter what.

the BUILD A BEAR thought, it seems like the more i talk to guys about what they are getting their girlfriends the more the bear subject comes up. most guys are doing the bears. so come up with something unique and personalized by you. not something that most guys are getting their girlfriends. girls don't all want the same gifts as each other. they want to tell their girlfriends what their boyfriends got them. brag about it.

so really put some uniqueness in gifts and thought.

i'd give you some thoughts but only if you ask and really want them.

thanks and good conversation/topic.

No girlfriend here, *sniff sniff*, but I do need to get a gift for a girl that I am really close to. So Miss Brown, a PM of some ideas would be greatly appreciated.

BigDongedHoe · 12-23-2002, 08:05 PM

Yah i fall into the single categorie as well Niger. There are two girls who I would drop anything and be with them but they obviously do not feel the same way back. It sucks....alot.

Well, I just gave my ex (and now it seems, quite close friend....yeah, I know...) her Christmas gift last night.

It was a pic of me acting like Spider-man (me and pliedes took them at school....freaking hilarious...) and I put it in a frame and a big bow. Then I got one of those sticker cards where you pick from an assorted amount of word stickers that make sentences and stuff. It was quite ingenuitive.

She loved it. Which was good, cause if she didn't....*shakes fist*

Get her a fucking gun and two bullets and tell her to kill herself.

ninjaface · 12-24-2002, 02:20 AM

I really couldn't rationalize spending more than $20 on a woman.

12-24-2002, 03:14 AM

hey ninja how about you go fuck yourself you gay piece of shit.

12-24-2002, 03:44 AM

ok, first, while the build-a-bear thing is cool, i believe it will quickly become cliche'ish.

But i once gave my now ex-girlfriend the best gift ever. (or pretty darn close)
I made her a quilt. I had to go over to my grandmother's house every day for about two weeks. I hand sewed every damn part of it. Whilest some may say this makes me less of a man, giving such an awesome gift is pretty damn cool. Basically the thing took me forever and i put a ton of effort and thought into it and it was bloody awesome.
Oh course now the girl is crazy and i haven't been with her for over a year, but still...
So there is my two cents...

StDx · 12-24-2002, 04:59 AM

well, I don't have a girlfriend right now... but I bought gifts for two girls. one I gave an assortment of shit that she had mentioned while we were out and about a couple months ago... she was impressed I remembered (like when kramer gave elaine the bench for her birthday). the other girl I gave a book and a pearl necklace. what book you may ask, well it's none of your damn business.

Combat Chuck · 12-24-2002, 07:46 PM

It was the menopause pop-up book....MenOpop...heh.

bert · 12-25-2002, 01:02 AM

StDx-
Nothing like a Seinfeld reference by a young enthusist early in the morning.

I happened to purchase a gift for two girls this year:

Girl A: I got her a huge bag of Vanilla Chai (that cost $45

), and I got her When Harry Met Sally on DVD (we watched that together once).

Girl B: She really didn't expect me to get her anything at all. We went on one "date" last week, while on this date, she mentioned that she wanted Avril Lavigne's new CD. So I got that for her. She was shocked that I bought her something, and that I remembered what it was that she wanted.

Both of these gifts were Home Runs in my book.
