Christmas Wish List

[AlexDaGator]

My wife and her family circulate Christmas wish lists (yes, for the adults too ). I think it's a little silly, but it's what they do.

Every year I get in trouble both for being the last one to submit a list and for submitting a crappy list. It's really not my thing.

The fact is, I pretty much have everything I need.

At my own peril, I'm asking this group of degenerates and reprobates for gift ideas for me. Yes, yes, I know some witticists will suggest feminine hygiene products and adult novelty toys (I bet I know which one of you will post the first Austin Powers Swedish Penis Enlarger gif), but maybe there will be some good suggestions interspersed among the laughs.

So...is there a little-known gadget you just love, or great product I might not know I need, or something that works great...whatever.

If you make apple sauce or apple butter this thing is a life saver.

Shaker & Spoon

Each month you’ll receive a box with 3 brand-new, original, unique recipes created just for you by world-class bartenders, and everything you need other than the alcohol to make 12 drinks (4 from each recipe). Every box revolves around a different spirit and one Shaker & Spoon box takes down one...

Broadly speaking, what are your hobbies / lifestyle presences? And **** everyone of you for juvenile jokes you're going to make.

Price range please... like are you looking for several things in the under $50 range, or can it be one bigger thing as a combined gift?

Why not get both? Marylands mom is definitely one of the bigger things, yet she's under 50.00...just trying to help a feller out during the holidays...

Instapot or Ninja Foodie. Even I can cook with them and not poison people.

How about something you can do damage with? Maybe a MIG/TIG or stick welder. Maybe an acetylene torch with tanks and caddy?

Screw this…
I keep seeing these damn Lexus and BMW commercials with that big ass red bow on top , for some unexpecting lucky rich guy or gal.

So what the hell, throw it out there.

What’s your favorite car or truck?

Me?
I’ll have the GMC Denali 3500 Dually.
In case anyone wants to hook me up.

This thread could be helpful. My dad asks for one every year too except I have to submit a list for the four of us. Your price range would be helpful.

Last year I decided to throw a 25’ Contender on there for Seedy. He actually ended up with a boat!
The remote control was not included though.

I had on my list a sous vide machine but didn’t get it. Figured that was the best way to try it out. Also suggested a subscription to a meat club like Butcher Box or some other food place. Didn’t get that either.

However I ended up with the best gift ever. A Yeti cooler and then dad took me to the seafood market to fill it up before I returned to KY. Hoping to return the cooler this year and get a refill for us.

Liquor store gift certificate. Buying booze on others' dime is the way to go.

It's also a good time to ask for stuff you don't want to waste your own money on, such as a Gators hoodie/sweater/long-sleeve shirt (not sure how gay you dress, but wanted to be all-inclusive for sofla) for those 5 days a winter it actually gets cool outside in FL.

My MIL and I play a game every year: she asks what I want and I tell her to buy me a gift card from B-21 in Tarpon Springs. She chastises me for asking for the same thing every year and then gets me the card. It gives me the chance to buy some bottles I never would. And everyone is happy.
