Wedding Gift

My boss is getting married next month.

How do you feel about this as a gift ?

Its a symbol of eternity or sometimes called The Circle of Life.

I like the continuous circle and I especially like the heart shape formed by their arms.

I do have a spare from a wedding that, uh, didn't happen?

More a gift of good taste, I think.

Isn't Eternity or the Circle of Life present in all cultures?

sorry guys but I'd be putting that in the back of the closet.to each their own though I suppose

I'd be giving you a Dixie Cup dispenser.

It's a plastic holder for paper cups. Usually for the bathroom. It's about six bucks in the grocery store. You wouldn't like my taste in art so I'd give you something FUNCTIONAL. :wah:

Recently when two friends of mine got married, choosing a gift was a real chore to put it mildly. It was her second marriage and she works in the reptile house at a zoo about 12 miles from here where she spends all day looking after snakes and he is a driver for a Funeral Director. They had done one of those gift lists but I wanted to get something more personal so in the end I just got them some towels with Hiss and Hearse monograms on them.

Its art. A carving. A statue. Its intent is to symbolize eternity thus the thought behind it is I wish you both well forever.

Some people like the sentiment.

You asked , I gave an answer and now I'm being shot down for it ........well don't worry i'll know for the future when someone asks a question. thanks for teaching me the rules of answering a question

Youre freakishly belligerent.

Its nothing I said so it must be you.

Im not getting involved in any emotional sagas tonight.

Wheres daddy ? Go pick on him.

It's not art It's kitch.I wouldn't be caught dead giving that to a newly married couple. At least if you're going to get someone a statue get them an antique at least it will be worth something eventually

There you asked and now you have a proper response

:wah: Im on it.
