My wife and I were originally not going to get each other anything due to me being out of work for a good while. Anyway we decided to get each other a couple of small things. I just have to ask the Brothers here a question: Do you suck at wrapping like I do? My wife wraps like no ones business, and I am like I have to compete with that? Do you have someone else wrap for you, like the mall? Or do you put in a bag with a little tissue wrap, tie the bag shut, and grab a beer and watch some more football? Merry Christmas, Happy New Year! Happy Holidays!
i would wrap it yourself! i bet she dont care how it is wrapped and would get a laugh on how bad it is...give you both something to laugh about
I did bro, and did the best I could with the ribbon to make pretty bows for her. I wanted to see what you and others do for wrapping of gifts.
little bag with the tissue paper......i am TERRIBLE at wrapping...its uneven, bulky, too much and looks like crap when i am done with it... it seriously looks like the ups box AFTER jim carrey kicks it all around in the begining of ace ventura.....so its all about the bag with tissue paper with me... under our tree is all these bags with obscure colored paper sticking out of them its hilarious....
I'm am possibly the worlds best male gift wrapper... I'm not sure if I'm still considered heterosexual having admitted that, but I'm an awesome wrapper.
so when a male offers an unwrapped gift you wrap it back up? Male gifts??? I'm confused.. are these the wrappers you speak of?
I can wrap better than the wife. I hate to wrap gifts, but I am good at it. It is much easier to buy a gift box and slap a bow on it.
I usually do that bro, but this year she had none of those peel the label off and stick, so there I was making two of them out of ribbon and stuff. She came in there was trying to help me.

I remember one year, for my girl's birthday, I just put everything in a Safeway paper bag, rolled it up and gave it to her. Needless to say, it wasn't my best effort. I can wrap boxes, but if it isn't a square/rectangle, it turns into a holiday mess. Bags are a guys best friend, but then the tissue never looks right. I say, get her gift cards. No mess required.
Im gonna have to go with Mor on this one. I can wrap anything. My mom is the biggest procrastinator and would always have to wrap all my brothers and sisters and families presents like the day before Christmas eve and Christmas eve. I became a pro at it and even did it at the mall.
Like samphin said if it's a box or a rectangle or something evenly shaped I can wrap it just fine but other than that... it's hard.
I wrap that **** myself.. I confort myslef in knowing it looks like **** by telling me they will be destroying the paper soon.
i wrap my own presents. people know its from me. i just get a **** load of wrapping paper and and just fold it all together somehow and use a bunch of tape
Has it really been twenty years ? <sigh> Wrapping is not one of my strong fortes either, but I do it. No once cares anyways, they just rip the f&&k out of it and get to the prize
