Reminds me of a tv show I watch, the husband got his wife a trash compactor for their anniversary.

I can top steak knives!! The first year we were married I got new toilet seats!! Yes that's correct about 2 wks before we had been walking through the hardware store and I had commented on the toilet seats that you unlock and can take completely off when you are cleaning. I came home from work on valentines day and there stood my smiling and very clueless husband who did not see the storm coming. My teenage son did however, as soon as I walked in he started laughing and shaking his head as he went to his room. So for his birthday that year my bald husband recieved a hair dryer and a curling iron!! :)

A spatula and the toilet seats definitely top steak knives. I just don't understand what men are thinking sometimes. After 16 years of marriage my hubby can still be so clueless regarding appropriate gifts. He has Valentines day down pat. Now he has to work on birthdays as I mentioned wanting to get a pony for our Granddaughter and he brought home a baby goat for her. Apparentlly a coworker's pet goat had twins.......he wasntq too happy taking baby goat back to work with him the next day in his car,lol. He still does not see where he went wrong with the goat. Gotta love em!

HA! HA! I can totally see my husband buying toliet seats and genuinely wondering why they are an inappropriate gift!
For the record, I did not want or ask for a spatula. The first year we were married, my husband went out and bought the wooden spoons, kitchen utensils, pots, etc. that his mom had in her kitchen because obviously, what other ones could be better than his mom's? I will also note that his brother did the exact same thing during the first year of his marriage (with the same results). It's pretty funny now but it sure wasn't at the time. And yes, I'm glad that my husband has a wonderful relationship with his mother (all his siblings do) but that doesn't mean I want to live in a re-created version of her house!

The problem is men totally forget the golden rule when living with a woman. There are only 2 kinds of decesions they will ever make. The right ones and the ones we won't ever let them live down! LOL I did however solve the gift problem now I just buy my own and wrap it up when I open it he finds out what he got me. :)

When my husband and I were dating, he gave me a wireless computer mouse one year.
A old co-worker of mine was given "Sweatin' to the Oldies" tapes from her ex husband one year, might have been for her birthday, though. You men...

Mine is well trained on what should happen on Valentines Day. However, the Christmas season leaves much to be desired. I think the worst was, a flannel, high necked nightgown, with the ruffled yoke, you know like they wear on the Little House on the Prairie? And it was covered with Scottie Dogs.
SCOTTIE DOGS????? He'll never, ever do that again!
I actually regifted it to my mom... just to see her reaction when she got it... priceless ... LOL she was trying so hard to say something nice about it....LOLOLOL

I like "guilt gifts".....you give them something much better than what they got you, so you get a follow up gift...along with few other perks...LOL.
