Things to give a RobbieRobTown
So, when people say they can’t find the right gift for someone, it usually means either they can’t be arsed to put in the effort, or they’re just not thinking. Cuz there’s always something…
Case in point, RobbieRobTown. My wife (katewares) is really, really good at this game. Whenever Xmas rolls around, she always seems to have a brilliant idea for what we can give Uncle Robtown (as he’s known in our home.) This usually means something that he both loves, and would have to explain at great lengths to a casual bystander. We know we’ve succeeded when he opens the gift and laughs hysterically, and immediately squirrels the gift away.
A few samples of recent gifts…
The infamous hand stiched pillow of truth.
I have a feeling Tomass is going to be snorting coffee when he sees that. We seem to like giving RRT pillows.
Katewares (who blogs over at www.katewares.com) is pretty awesome. She also made me these t-shirts, using slogans we found around the interweb.
But this next one is my favorite, so good that when mine wore out, she made me another one.
And, based on prior performance, I suspect either Tbinns or RobbieRobTown will be calling her to ask nicely if she can make a Correctness T-Shirt for the winner of the Smackdown insult contest, assuming they get around to deciding on one.
If you like any of the above, we can probably convince katewares to make us a few, drop us a line and we’ll figure out costs, etc.

Can I get that aquaman pillow on an apron instead? The wife’s birthday is coming up soon.

Coffee snorts… fuck that I think I just lost bladder control. They’re all great.
I like to do this kind of thing too. My wife and I made a good friend of ours Dian Fossey “Underoos” a few years back. She was/is nuts about Fossey and has a good sense of humor, they went over well.
I’ll toss some pictures of the designs up on my server when I get home and link em’ back. They’re cheese-tastic!
