Being that it's almost Thanksgiving, I figured I'd put together a few recommendations for the inevitable Yankee Swap you'll begrudgingly take part in over the next few weeks. The gifts for these things almost always suck. Christmas ornaments, a giant nutcracker, OOHHH a Starbucks card!, DVDs, a bottle of booze.
If one has to participate, one can suppose that those things are all pretty safe bets. But ask oneself this: would one be excited about taking any of those home? One would not.
Here's a little tip for everyone, just go to the ICA museum store and pick out something somewhat decent. That Gin and Titonic ice cube set or some weird little book that whoever can put on their coffee table to feign having cultured interests. Maybe the Dylan Christmas album if your group is ironic or whatever. But do the rest of us a favor, fuck off with that ceramic Dunky's cup that looks like a styrofoam cup please.
