Holidude Gift Guide

Now, I’ve seen enough Holiday Gift Guides out there and I decided to make my own.  This is for the guy who has submitted to his life of being an adult, but is not quite ready to leave behind the stuff that makes his girlfriend roll her eyes or get super annoyed. Work Shirts, Ties, and Cardigans won’t make an appearance on this list as those are things almost everyone knows to get already.

1. Playstation 3 - $299


PlayStation 3

At it’s current price point, it’s almost dumb not to get it.  It’s got great exclusives now, plus it’s a Blu-ray player.  If you get this for your boyfriend you are also setting yourself up for a long run of cheap gifts like Blu-rays, or games or peripherals for lesser holidays.

If He Has It:  XBOX360

2. WWE Replica Championship Belt - $100 WWE Championship Spinner Commemorative Title BeltMost guys have thought about how awesome it would be to have a real Wrestling or Boxing belt at some point in their lives, but they keep that desire deep down in fear or looking like a complete moron.  It’s 100 bucks, but if you buy it the reasons for why he needs it will present themselves later.
If He Has It: Get Him Tickets to RAW


3.  Kenneth Cole Italian Leather Passcase - $75 

Italian Leather Passcase - Kenneth Cole

Wallets are the type of gift that most people appreciate as they probably have a wallet that is falling apart, but until it completely does, they wont feel the need to get one.  Save the guy the trouble and buy a nice one so that you wont have to do it again.

If He Has It: Good.

4. Two Tickets to the Game of His Favorite Team - $75-$400

If you are a girlfriend that has been converted to liking his favorite team buy two tickets and go with him.  If you have not been converted or don’t like the sport, still get him two tickets so he can take his best bro.

If He Has Season Tickets: Two Tickets to his Favorite Band

5. Panasonic - Arc 4 Nanotech Electric Shaver - $179

8984575 Angle Large

It’s super practical, but it also is one of the best shaves you are going to get outside of the shave you get at a barber.

If He Has It: Underwear

6.  Beats by Dr. Dre Studio High Definition Headphones - $299

These are a pair of high end headphones where you really are not just paying for the name attached.  The sound quality associated with these are unrivaled when it comes to the average consumer.  They are well worth every penny.

If He Has It: DJ Hero for Xbox 360 or PS3

7. The Pig Next Door (Bacon of the Month Membership) - $149 (plus shipping)

http://www.kaboodle.com/hi/img/2/0/0/91/e/AAAAAsi_Zc8AAAAAAJHiWg.jpg

Beer and Wine of the Month clubs are fairly standard, but I don’t know many people out there who belong to bacon clubs.  On a monthly basis, you receive a package of extremely high end artisan bacon.  Along with that come a bacon mug and also a guide to helping the average bacon eater to gain a more discerning palette.

8. Mad Men 1st and 2nd Season DVD or Blu-Rays - $100 (49.99 per season)

http://feastofnemesis.files.wordpress.com/2009/10/mad-men-silouhette.jpg

Both the DVD and Blu-Ray sets are the same price is weirdly, but the holiday season is the perfect time to catch up on tv, and there are few shows around that are as engrossing as this one.  Anyone who watches an episode is usually hooked.  If you buy these, definitely buy online at Amazon, as they are being sold for much lower than their list price.

More To Come!

Even Hipsters Love Will Smith.  Pearl and the Beard-Will Smith Medley

This is the policy at Hugs in Williamsburg.  Can’t they just save time and say “No Black People….Wiggers Too!”?  Seems easier to me.

Does anyone wanna meet me at The Creek tomorrow @ 8pm for their tribute to Sega Dreamcast?  It’s easily my favorite system ever owned, and IMO really paved the way for what ps3’s and 360’s do nowadays.   i HATE the term “NOWADAYS” as an aside, and apologize for using it.

If this movie came out in 2001, I would be shitting my pants over this trailer, or if I was a freshman in college.  Unfortunately, I’m a full grown adult, so it means far less.  I will still see it tho

I don’t know how to feel about this.  Yea Warner Bros. owns DC, but I feel like Disney might just be TOO family friendly.  It will probably be awesome for the theme parks, and the gross amts. of cash disney can throw to films, but do I really wanna see Steamboat Spidey?  No. We’ll have to see how this plays out.

I came across these photos online and I must say I am pretty amazed at what designers can do with a regular pair of nikes, I would otherwise loathe.  They combine my two favorite things:  Sneakers and Beef!

please look at these adorable pics of dogs when you get a chance.  I can’t even stand it!!!

I HOPE THIS IS TRUE…Hulk 2 got such a bad rap even tho it was great

Brooklyn Bound

i am putting the finishing touches on my current apt. cause in less than two hours i’ll officially officially live in Brooklyn. 778 Lincoln Place.  If you’d like to send me housewarming mail, i’d love to receive it!

someone buy me a cool scarf!
