Tis The Season For Christmas- A List Of Gift Ideas For Christmas!
Humor Cafe

Buying Christmas presents can be a hard thing for some people. Christmas is supposed to a peaceful holiday spent with friends, family, food, and Christmas jams, but instead it can be a bit stressful because you have to buy presents for all the people you care about. I usually start thinking about Christmas before Thanksgiving and figure out what to get everyone after Thanksgiving. If you are one of those people who had no idea what to get anybody in your life, then have no fear, I will offer up some ideas! Here we go-

  1. Music gifts-

This is a pretty easy category of presents, all you have to know is your family member's/friend's favorite band. With that fact you can buy a vinyl record from their favorite band, concert tickets, a shirt or buttons with their favorite band on it. There’s lots of options, and every time I get a new music thing to add to my endless collection, I get stoked.

2. Gifts for Mom-

We have a running joke in my family that every year we tell my mother we’re going to get her a coffee maker or a vacuum cleaner. We never end up doing that but we always joke about it. The point is don’t buy anything that involves a chore, like a vacuum. Get your mom a set of towels for the kitchen or something totally random like a garden gnome. Last year I got my mom a tomato soup kit that came with a bowl and she still uses it!

3. Gifts for Dad-

My dad is weird when it comes to presents. He always wants something that no one has ever heard of. Last year it was a book about engineering that was like, 1,000 pages long. For your dad, you could get a pair of funny socks, a nice shirt, something for his car or a pair of slippers. If your dad likes coffee, you could get him a custom coffee mug with your face on it. You could wear a shirt with your face on it and then take a picture of you wearing it on the coffee mug. If what I just said is confusing, check out the picture below!

4. Gifts for your siblings-

My younger siblings (and siblings in general) usually have different interests from you. My little bros like video games and board games. Sometimes I don’t understand why, but I do try to understand as best as I can. Get them something based off their interests such as a board game, a video game that they want, or a gift card to a store they like. This is probably the easiest thing to figure out because your siblings might not even expect something from you, so whatever you get them they will be happy.

5. Random small gifts for someone has everything-

Every year I get my friend band aids. I’ve been doing this for like 7 years. It’s become a tradition but it started out as a joke. If you know someone who has everything you can think of then something completely random can be good. By random I mean things like Chia pets or a Snuggie or weird band aids. It doesn’t have to make sense but you’ll most likely get a laugh from whoever you give the gift to-and that’s pretty cool.

Good Luck with your gift giving endeavors! I know I just wrote an article about gift-giving, but remember: gifts are not the most important part of Christmas.

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.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
