Final Shopping List

Scratch what I said last time about looking for more gifts - I just realized I don't have the time! I don't want to pay for extra fast shipping, so I want to go with the slowest option - and if I want to be sure the presents will get here in time, that means I have to order it right now! So, here's what I've decided to order:

Over the Hill Gift Set (from me)
Body Part Replacements (for guests)
Electric nose & ear cleaner (from one son)
Over the hill tool belt (from other son)
Weener Kleener (bonus gift from me)
Over the hill toilet paper (for party)
Caution floor sign (for party)
Decorating kit and centerpiece (for party)
Caution: Old Zone Barricade (for party)
Pin the Part on the Old Fart (for party)
Candles
Prune Juice Shooter (for party)

I have to say, when I started this blog I never expected it would end with me ordering so many things! As exciting as it is that the party's right around the corner and I've finally got all this stuff figured out, though, I can't help but feel a little sad because this means this is the end of this blog. And I really have enjoyed it. I like this blogging thing, maybe I'll start up another blog about something else in the future. If I can find the time (or something worth talking about), that is... well, anyways, thanks for all your help in deciding what gifts to get for George, even if all you did was give me a place to sort out my own thought process. I'm sure he'll love the gifts, and I'll be sure to let you know what he thinks of them!

Weener Kleener

I found another small gift today that probably wouldn't be appropriate to present at the party. I know, I know, I should stop even looking at things like this, but I can't resist. They're some of the funniest gifts on the website! Come on, look at this thing and tell me I'm wrong:

It's even called weener kleener. How funny is that? A ring of soap to use on the penis? Who came up with that? It's hilarious! I'm not really sure why it was on this site, because I don't understand why it's an over the hill gift per say, but it's a hilarious one nonetheless! I really like this. Not only is it a funny gag gift, it's one of the few gag gifts that actually has practical application... I think? I'm really not sure if you can even use this thing. I'm guessing you can. And I know George would. Although, judging by some of the things it says on the package about its use, I might not want him to!  Haha. I think if I'm going to get him one of the more "personal" gifts, it's going to be this one, but who knows - I could still find something even funnier yet! I'll let you know if I do, of course. I probably ought to get back to looking for gifts I can actually give him at the party, though...

Toilet Paper

I found another fun-looking gift today. Although, I think I'm going to use it more as a party decoration than a gift, but it's kind of a cross between the two. Take a look!

It's Over the hill toilet paper! You probably can't see very well from that picture, but it's a roll of toilet paper where every sheet has a cartoon about getting old on it. I think it would be so funny to put this in our bathroom when we have the party to surprise the guests - and George! I can't see what all the cartoons are, but one of the pictures shows one that's pretty funny, so I think this would be a pretty funny decoration worth getting. If I can even call it a decoration! Really, what a strange product, but in a good way! It's funny how many decorations and things for the entire party I've found while searching this site... this blog was just supposed to be about gifts for George - that's what it's called, after all! So I think next time I'll get back to actually searching for things that fit the title of blog... if I don't get distracted by something else as funny as this or the Whyagra again!

Wow

Okay, when I saw this product, I couldn't help but laugh out loud. I knew that I had to put it up here, even though I'm not planning on buying it. But it's just too funny not to share with all of you.

They're called Whyagra. How funny are these? It's a gag gift, obviously, but what it claims to be is a "male supplement" like Levitra or Cialis, or specifically Viagra (the name is a play on it!) But instead of making it easier to have sex, it makes you feel like you don't want to have sex in the first place - because after all, like it says, old people shouldn't be having sex! Now, I don't agree with that at all, I think elderly people are just as entitled to have sex as anyone else, but it is a pretty funny concept. Now, I'm not planning on getting these for George - for one thing, I'd have to give them to him in private like the pecker exerciser (which I might get him) - but for another thing, they're not really applicable. He's not THAT old yet that he has to worry about those sorts of things. But I just thought it was the funniest gag gift I've seen on that website so far so I had to make a post about it. But that's all I have to post right now, because I haven't gotten a chance to really look for anything else I might actually get George - I was too distracted by this! But as soon as I do, as always, I'll post what I'm thinking about here!

Electric Cleaner

I just found the perfect small little gift for our other son to "give" George. Look at this thing:

It's an electric nose and ear cleaner - how funny is that? It looks like it's just a little elctric motor that spins around and come with two attachments: A cotton swab (for the ears) and a little plastic finger (for the nose)! After all, it gets to be a lot more work to keep up with hygiene when you get older, as George would know! It says (as a joke of course) that it's "guaranteed to improve your sense of smell and hearing" - well George could certainly use some help with that second one, with how long it takes him to do what I ask sometimes! Anyways, this is just the kind of small gift I was looking for to get from whichever boy doesn't get him the tool kit. It's a little less expensive, though, so I think I might pair it with the birthday blues kit - those two combined are about equal in price to the tool belt. Well, that takes care of the gifts from the kids, but I still haven't figured out what I'll be getting him. That's a little backwards if you ask me! I really should make them start actually buying people presents themselves one of these days, but boys will be boys, I suppose. Okay, that's all for now, but next time it's time to recommence the hunt for a gift to George from me!

Tool Belt

I think I finally found a gift on that website that would be good for one of the boys to get George (or at least, to say that one of the boys got George, since I know better than to expect either of them to actually pick something out and buy it for him). Anyways, here it is:

The call it the over the hill tool belt. Of course, I don’t know what else they’d call it, because that is exactly what it is. It’s made to look like a tool belt with various tools attached to it, except that instead of normal tools they’re an assortment of little old age gag gifts. And these gag gifts seem like my sons’ sense of humor – things like a “fart alarm” whistle and a fake Tylenol-like medicine called “Tyrd-N-Old”. I think George will appreciate and get a kick out of this gift, especially if it’s coming from one of the boys. So that takes care of shopping for one of them. Now, I wonder what I’m going to do for the other one. It should be something like this, pretty cheap and an assortment of little gifts. Maybe that birthday blues kit I posted about a while back. But maybe I’ll find something better. I’ll just have to keep my eyes open and be on the lookout for another gift from our other son. And, of course, I still need to figure out what I’m getting him for sure. Right now I just have a bunch of ideas floating around in my head – seems like it’s like that more and more these days, huh? Okay, well, that’s all I’ve got to talk about for now. Talk to you next time!

A couple more small gifts

I went on that site again, in search of some small gifts that could go along with the pen I posted about last time, and I think I found some. One of them’s a little questionable in taste, though - I mean, I don’t have a problem with it, and George wouldn’t, but, well, you’ll see. First, here’s one that’s a safe bet:

They call it the over the hill hearing aid and yes, I know, it’s just a funnel. But it’s not as dumb as, say, golf balls, because funnels aren’t really something you normally buy by themselves, and this gift went ahead and turned a strange object into a funny gift that actually makes sense. I think it’s quite clever. And I think I might get it for George, along with the pen and a couple other little things. The thing I’m hesitant about, though, is this:

Yes, you read that right, that's called the "pecker exerciser." As you can see, this isn’t something I could include if one of the boys was going to be giving George all the little gifts. It would pretty much have to be a gift from me, for obvious reasons - coming from me it would be funny, but coming from anyone else, it would be very strange! And I don’t think I could stand to give it to him in public, either - he might not be embarrassed by it, but I know I would be! I think this product is absolutely hilarious and is one of the best gag gifts I’ve found online so far, but I’m not sure how I could go about presenting it to him. Maybe I could give it to him as an additional gift in private after the party, but then it doesn’t even seem worth the effort. I don’t know, I guess I’ll just have to think over this one while I’m looking for more small gifts that the boys could get George!
