I Need To Confess. I Can't Wrap Gifts For Squat.

[SlowwHand]

My daughter, Summer, offered to wrap some presents for me. Asked me did I know how to wrap presents.
I don't remember exactly what I said, but I imagine it was something wiseass.

Well, I just wrapped them. They look like crap.



Are you wrapping presents? If so, did they come out better than these?
I'm hoping, at this point, that I don't mistake them for garbage and throw them out.

I can wrap pretty good. Especially things like books .

But I can also wrap shirts and stuff nicely, as long as they are folded properly. Unfortunately I can't fold, so I just don't do anything to it after the clerk folds it nice for the bag .

I was just telling Playful about this, and I should add this to the confession, because it gets even worse.


My brother and his other, we got them restaurant cards and I put the gift cards in a little tin. All I had to do was tape a tag and write on it. I washed my hands and didn't dry them well enough, and smeared the ink on the tag.
I swear...

Use the man's Xmas wrapping. Only homosexuals use wrapping paper. Real men use the plastic bag from the store!!!!!

I order from Amazon and tell them to pre-wrap it for me

These look like a rat's been gnawing on them.
A homosexual would likely die of embarrassment, if that's the case.

That's still unmanly. A plastic bag demonstrates the appropriate male indifference to social niceties.

I'm disappointed in you Sloww. I thought a Texan could do anything.

One problem is children's toy which are mounted in a 1/2-box...just the base and back, with the toy exposed. 2-year-old Sam is getting a piggie and a doggie "Shake & Go", and 4-year-old Brian is getting a dragon (flapping wings and fiery lightbulb). I'm wrapping this beastiary tonight.

I shall be massacred.

He's from Dallas.

Now, if he was from Fort Worth...

They're wrapped. That counts as "anything". Kind of a low standard to have on the situation though.

Your presents suck!!! I'm getting a bottle of Jack Daniels for Christmas.

Heck, you should see mine. I just give up and cut little squares and tape them on individually.

If they were MY kids, I'd certainly want them passed out drunk. But they're friends' kids, so I'm giving them gifts that make a lot of noise.
