LordCowCowCowCowCowCowCowCow Posted June 22, 2015 Report Share Posted June 22, 2015 Let's talk about something nice, YCM. Gifts. What kinds of gifts do you like to receive, what kinds do you give? Are there anyone in particular that you tend to give/receive gifts to/from?What do you think of the idea of obligatory gifts? (Giving things to significant others on Valentine's, birthday gifts, Christmas gifts, etc.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmo. Posted June 22, 2015 Report Share Posted June 22, 2015 Gifts are fun (more receiving them than giving them, but let's hide egoistic Cosmo back into his shelter in the deep void and continue), i really like surprise ones. Once my sister and dad went to Bologna to do some shopping and they bought me macarons! (I adore macarons.... Seriously you give me a box of them and i'll be happy for the whole day) Valentine's gifts are the usual flowers and chocolates (But i certainly don't mind the chocolates!), so pretty meh. Obligatory gifts are at least a way for everyone to be nice at least once in a year (Unless you gift something they hate...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitchermitcher Posted June 22, 2015 Report Share Posted June 22, 2015 Obligatory gifting's a nice pretext to not be embarrassed about giving someone something. I like it. Plus I also get gifts that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodrigo Posted June 22, 2015 Report Share Posted June 22, 2015 After I grew up, I found that receiving actual money so I could buy what I really wanted works better for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simping For Hina Posted June 22, 2015 Report Share Posted June 22, 2015 Give me money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sethera Posted June 22, 2015 Report Share Posted June 22, 2015 I appreciate gifts as long as I'll find a use for them. Clothing I'll never wear, knick-knacks I'll never use, and gift cards to places that are hard for me to get to are the kind I don't care for as much. My favorites are books and video games, though, cuz I'm a huge nerd. XP For giving gifts, it depends on the person. Just whatever I think suits them best or that they'll appreciate. Whether it be clothes, books, chocolate, jewelry, art supplies, or money. I like obligatory gifts cuz they're my main source of video games. Everybody in my family knows I love video games so every birthday and Christmas that's pretty much all I get. Sometimes I buy them myself but it's never as exciting as it is to open a present and wonder what game you got. For obligatory buying, however, when I'm struggling on funds it can be a bit difficult but somehow I've always managed to get through it. Plus, I like giving things to people and seeing their faces light up. ^_^ It's one of my simple pleasures, along with eating good food and being lazy when there's nothing you need to do that day.

~British Soul~ Posted June 22, 2015 Report Share Posted June 22, 2015 Nowadays I like receiving money or gift vouchers as a gift so that I can buy what I want with them. Other than that clothing or video games are gifts I don't mind receiving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fusion X. Denver Posted June 22, 2015 Report Share Posted June 22, 2015 I like gifts with some thought behind them. I prefer comics, books and games of course, but getting something like a Spider-Man mug or some Nintendo shirt that I wouldn't necessarily want or buy is a nice gesture since they're thinking of me. And I'll proceed to use them of course.That said, I'm terrible at buying gifts for people. I can never think of anything to get and usually ask someone for advice.

Cosmo. Posted June 22, 2015 Report Share Posted June 22, 2015 Also..... If you'll give me some nerdy themed clothing i'll love you to the moon and back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shradow Posted June 25, 2015 Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 Socks and underwear. I can always use more socks and underwear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordCowCowCowCowCowCowCowCow Posted June 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 Clothing yes, clothing is very good. Clothing and money is honestly what I like to get, because that means I don't have to spend my money on clothes. Though i do enjoy getting video games, books, and movies/TV shows on DVD. I love owning things like that and they're good gifts cause they can last me a long while. Though my favorite gift I've gotten is something I don't have yet because the gifter isn't able to get it to me, but it's amazing.(I BELIEVE this is it)http://www.amazon.com/Premium-Plush-Cow-Promo-Anniversary/dp/B00ART1M9W As for giving, I SUCK at it, but I do enjoy making people happy by giving them stuff they like. ^^; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
