Hmmmm...

I got a total dilemma here.

It's my Dad's birthday today. He's somehow 59 years old :eek:

Problem is I have no ideas whatsoever what to get him. He's got dozens of different aftershaves (givenchy, cartier, jean paul gaultier, etc...) lots of clothes already, and I can't get him any games because whatever he likes on PlayStation 2 or the XBox 360, he already has.

Any suggestions on what I could get? What do you normally buy your folks on their birthdays?

Go for some type of wristwatch. Everyone likes watches.

Draw him a picture with you and him with your house on he back and a big smiling sun on top.

Give him a card and a kiss, cheap and thoughtful, but you probably wont be son of the year...

I recommend getting him a fine bottle of cologne.

If you don't mind spending some money, buy a grill. Everyone likes to grill things. Plus, you win too, because food is good.

As a gag gift, buy him a walker.

Buy something he doesn't have.

Like a pie. I bet he doesn't have one.

PS: I got a pie for my birthday once.

Give him what every Dad wants. A day filled with fun with their kid.

Unless he hates you and you could NEVER bond with him.

Yeah, middle-aged people are the toughest. Thinking they're so smart having every damned object in the world. Well, I know one thing they don't have. Two bruised knees and a punctured lung. Ok, so that's three things.

Get him your body. :p

I have the same problem with my father every year. It's really difficult to figure out what to give him. The best advice I can give you is to try and think outside of the box... you know, maybe improvise and take some chances instead of just always taking the safe route.

That would require the love of a female, which is too often covered in issues. And an 18 year commitment on your part; it is almost as bad as getting wrapped up in one of the 12 DVD for 1$ deals.

I would go for a CD. Buy him something from his favourite band or favourite musical genre.

Lol. My Dad always gets socks for Christmas. I feel sorry for him... who needs more socks?

People with feet that won't stop growing probably need a plentiful supply of socks :D

Go with his interest's. He read's, buy him a book. He's a movie buff, buy him a DVD he enjoy's, etc.
But whatever the present, thought is what stand's out, so make sure the present you get him is one that will put a smile on his face. :)
