...brown paper can be made into a beautiful wrapping option, especially when spruced up with a sprig of evergreen, a dehydrated orange slice...

[raybbr]

Kohl’s had boxes and boxes of Christmas wrapping.

There will always be something else to demonize.

I always liked the Niven And Pournelle twist on Dante's "banner chasers" in their "Inferno".

[zaxtres]

These liberals could screw up a wet dream.

liberals try to bring their wet dreams to reality which is why they are screwed up in the first place.

Ah sayed cottin pickin like the good ol’ South’ner Ah iz...

All I want for Christmas is right wing death squads to get rid of these people for good.

---

Death squads for whoever has a propensity for turning on their own when they are out of targets. WWII was a demonstration of this.

I listen to OTR. IIRC, the Hearst company sponsored “The Green Hornet” and bragged about its 32-page Sunday comics section.

So true. I reuse the Amazon boxes when I can, otherwise I get bags and tissue paper. Save them for the next year for presents I get. They are timeless anyway until they start wearing out.

For my Quilter friends I wrap theirs in Cloth they can use for a Quilt. Sometimes I make quilted Grocery bags for those that like them.

I use bags for all my Christmas gifts. I hate wrapping. Anyway, I bought a bunch of bags from the Dollar Tree last year because there was 4 big bags in a 99C bundle. They’re essentially large brown paper bags with a Christmas scene printed on them. I had enough to bag all the presents this year. Just yesterday I was glancing under the tree and thought...wow! how drab all the presents look. At least I used them all up and next year I’ll know better. lol

Use the color comic section of your local newspaper.

No panda skin. My wife says we have to stay with the winter season theme and use Snow Leopard skins.

[Calvin Locke]

Panda skin? Probably holds up better than the ones with the Spotted Owl feathers I use, but probably not as durable as the polar bear fur ones.

[econjack]

Use old newspaper or magazine cutouts, and make wrapping an event, said Kellogg: “If I had children, I think it would be a lot of fun as a family tradition to draw on paper.”

Keep up the good work...don't have children.

We were always careful not to rip it so it could be saved for next year and the year after and the year after and the year after.

[BookmanTheJanitor]

I am guessing multiple mental health issues.

[ar15ona]

I got a concealed carry permit for my plastic straws

"My wife says we have to stay with the winter season theme and use Snow Leopard skins."

I wish I had thought of that! But I'm pretty sure our local zoo was out of snow leopard. :(

[jdege]

I’ve been using brown craft paper to wrap presents for years, because I’m lazy and cheap, and because it means is easy for everyone to see which were mine.

If it’s going to start becoming the politically correct option ... does anyone know where I can get empty boxes with Sturm-Ruger logos?

Liberals want total power and control over everyone’s life.
