Stocking Stuffers That Are Naughty Yet Nice

With global warming, there’s a strange disconnect between what’s going on outside versus what’s happening in the malls.  As holiday music blares over the sound system, I still can’t believe in a few short weeks, we will be celebrating Christmas.  I only have two words:  Holy Canoli! 

Many of us (myself included) leave the gift purchases until the very last minute, nano-second.  But those proactive list-making shoppers will undoubtedly be enjoying a leisurely skate on a frozen pond followed by fireside snuggles while the rest of us will perspire mercilessly, enduring the crush.  In the parking lot, we will be leaning on horn whilst screaming “You MF’er!” at nasty drivers.  Did you like this dream sequence?  Inspired by Scrooged.   

My favourite gifts are those that are humourous, stylish and thoughtful.  Here are my top picks for stocking stuffers or unconventional hostess gifts.

I mean, have you ever? You had me at mix tape. Amazing, emo, hipster, ironic greeting cards from ableandgame on Etsy.

With these American Apparel leg warmers, I propose a dance party. Grape vine, kick!

"Is that coal in my stocking? Um, are you trying to tell me something?" Your friend will feel better once you tell them it's edible.
