Almost forgot. Two or three years ago, somebody found an exact replica of the leg lamp from "A Christmas Story". Even packed it in a box marked "Fragile" (that's pronounced "fra-gee-lay" for those who don't speak Italian).
Take a picture of yourself similar to the one George Costanza took on Seinfeld where he posed in his underwear and black socks. Frame it with a $3.00 frame from Walgreens. http://static.flickr.com/19/116450033_4266fb5229_o.jpg
I wanted to post what I decided on and what were some other good "gag" gifts... although it turned out to be pretty normal gifts like gift cards and kitchen gadgets (which I guess is good to have so there is actually some stealing going on). I decided on wrapping wrapping paper. It is probably something that has rarely been done and a good gag gift. But it wasnt nearly the price range so I found a elephant umbrella to shove through the middle of the wrapping paper. Probably, by far, the most creative gift of the party and actually a hit as far as humor goes. Someone us wrapped an orange and a toothbrush but followed that with a gift card as the real gift. I ended up getting a checker set with the the pieces being shot glasses. I like it. I feel sorry for the girl that got my gift. Probably the worst pleasing of all but thats what happens what I listen to the instructions...
