What I would like to know is why this British invention, created by a British guy named Martin Grix, seems to be marketed at 'idiot' Americans. What's the matter? Aren't there enough 'idiot', thumbless Chavs in Britain that have forgotten how to fold paper and use tape?

Well there's me, my dad, and most of my friends

Oh and of course mum it's not much but it's a damn good start

OK that's just freaky

I just got back from the meal and my wife said, I'll cut your hair this weekend babes it's getting a bit long

Where's the camera mum ?

Cody

I'm ok at wrapping presents, but I HATE it. My mother hates it too so she always trys to pawn off her present wrapping onto me. I no longer fall for that. It just seems so ridiculously pointless you know? "Here, I bought you a gift so now I'm going to waste more resources to wrap it in fancy paper so you can't see it."

But, I suppose on the list of offensive, wasteful, idiot things humans do this is relatively far down the list.

I love wrapping gifts. I use toilet paper and duct tape sometimes.

My husband wraps my gifts in newspaper and fluorescent orange duct tape. Requires a lot of cutting to open those gifts...he thinks it's hilarious.

Men.

Dearie, all mums have eyes in the back of their heads and some degree of psychic ability. Remember the time that I caught you....well, never mind. I don't want to embarrass you in front of your friends.

Damn!

Peace

You put ribbon on it?

What's that for?

edit on 18-6-2013 by butcherguy because: (no reason given)

So that you can carry it like a six pack!

We all know how to carry six packs.

I have a 14 year old daughter who is my wrapping slave.

All is good in kdog land.

There is already wrapping paper for men. It is called bacon.

Hubby and I are gonna go unique for our wrapping...if we make it to our 50th wedding anniversary....His idea too. I'm gonna wrap his gift with "me"

That reminds of my dad
One Christmas he wrapped about a dozen boxes inside each other, complete with all the annoying packaging materials that make a mess.

When mum eventually found the ring box she was elated, only to find it empty
Mum was

Dad knew better than to let that one lie and pulled a gorgeous ring out of his pocket, looking sheepish, he'd genuinely forgotten to put it back in box.

It sure is. . Hey, we annoy those we love.

reply to post by cody599


That's hilarious. Yeah, sometimes we get so carried away we forget the important part.

Real men just cover gifts in Epoxy and then roll them in wood shavings, broken teeth and roadkill

ETA: My back step offers similar opportunities, though it's flint and glass shards, wood shavings and sinew - i like my teeth and dont kill critters, i just rip their tendons out and make stuff with them.
