Wife Wants Very Specific Gift For Christmas And Also Wants Husband To Think Of It Himself
Babylon Bee ^

PODUNKSVILLE, GA—According to sources, local wife Kristi Boren has something very obscure and specific that she wants for Christmas, but she also wants her husband to think of it all on his own.

"This gift would be tangible evidence of my husband's deep love and appreciation for me," said Boren. "If he buys me this very specific gift that I've always wanted but never told him about, it will be proof that he really 'gets me' and has been paying attention this whole year!"

Sources say Mrs. Boren has been leaving behind subtle clues since January, like dog-earing a page in a catalog one time, or thinking about it really hard and then looking into his eyes to transfer her wish through the air into his brain.

God help me. The last thing we need is a wife who needs you to “prove yourself”. Man, guilty until proven innocent.

Babylon Bee always comes up with the perfect photo to go with their headlines.

I hope this husband does not let this wife down or there will be hell to pay - that I can guarantee.

My neighbor said his wife wants something that will go from 0-200 fast and doesn’t care what color it is! So I suggested a bathroom scale.

Oh honey, it’s what I’ve always wanted! (Ick!)

Kind of like when a friend got married and someone
gave them a set of fancy Silver ice tongs.
Later I saw the wife using them to clean the cat box.

Take my advice. I’ve been married for 41 years.

Ask her mother/sister/best friend.

They’ll know.

LOL, this sounds, hands down, no question, like a lose-lose proposition for whoever this guy is.

I hope she had some quality or qualities that make it worthwhile.

Because I don’t see how this ends well in any way, shape or form.

This feels like one of those things you install on a web page so that when someone goes to click on the button, it moves no matter what you do.

Poor guy.

Yeah. I don’t get hints. Told my wife that years ago. Don’t hint, don’t beat around the bush, just get on with it. Hit me with direct statements. It’s better if applied with the force of the Sledge-O-Matic on a watermelon.

A guy where I used to work came home with a dozen roses and a splendid anniversary gift for their 20th anniversary.

She handed him a set of divorce papers......................

I will have to say that the one year I got a vacuum (not even a fancy one) and TWO irons, was not my favorite.

But I had no way of knowing that I would get an Aaron Judge bobblehead for my birthday, years later.

I swear some women actually do this! I go buy my present early in the shopping season and wrap it so it is ready for Christmas morning. I get something that I really do want. By Christmas day though, I usually have forgotten what it was so I really am surprised. My husband does get me something and it is always a thoughtful and really nice gift. But it my way works well.
