Presents You Do Not Want To Find Under The Tree

There are some things you should not gift.

Sometimes we want to be creative with our gifts and this causes us to get a little "wild." It is best to play it safe and not get people gifts they will hate this holiday season. Because remember: what goes around comes around.

1) A box of raisin cookies in a package that says chocolate chip cookies. That is just a cruel cruel gift. With one bite into the cookie, your life will be over.

A moon rock. Not going to lie this is pretty creative, but no one wants to only receive a tiny "moon rock."

3) A name necklace with your name misspelled. Mark or Cark? That is just rude. If you do not know how to spell my name correctly, then you lose the right of getting gifts for me. Oh also, name necklaces are non-refundable so you have to keep them. HORRIBLE.

4) A tiny sample bottle of perfume that smells nasty. Do not gift perfume. It's that simple. Every person likes a different smell and the fragrance you enjoy does not mean your friend enjoys. Also it says "SAMPLE" on the tiny samples, so save the embarrassment.

5) Granny Panties. Not really sure why anyone would think gifting granny panties is okay? Just get your girl a gift card to Victoria Secret because a pair of sexy undies is about thirty to fifty dollars.

6) Or even worse... camel toe undies. I have no words for this. All I can say is that these undies sure look uncomfortable and I am sure no women in your life would want a pair.

7) An avocado. I do not think anyone could be this happy with an avocado gift. You actually have to slice this avocado to make toast or guacamole. The better gift would have been a bowl of chips and guacamole.

8) A fanny pack that looks like a stomach. Now come on, this just looks creepy. I will give it credit that it is creative, but it looks a bit too realistic to the point where it seems like you literally unzipped your stomach.

9) A candy cane shaped vibrator. This is definitely something you do not want to unwrap in front of your younger siblings or parents. Oh the horror.

10) An opened bottle of wine. Someone actually have my dad a present like that. The bottle was opened and a fourth of it was gone. How hard is it to go to the store and buy a twelve dollar bottle of wine, instead of ruining your image and giving someone an opened bottle?

11) Getting someone a sweater that is triple their size. Funny, but this also happened to my dad. I find this to be beyond disrespectful. It shows you are making fun of the person's weight one way or another. If you want to gift a sweater, then ask someone who is close to the person what size the individual actually wears. Or include an gift receipt.

12) A weird pencil shaper. This just looks wrong and I am sure no one wants to display this at their desk at work.


These gifts will be a topic for discussion and might even cause a few laughs here and there, but it is best to avoid them. These gifts might cause you relationships, friendships, and your family members abandoning you.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
