Don’t forget noisy. Have you considered an Otamatone?

[pavel_lishin]

The ideal "fuck you, parents" present must be noisy, and yet must require no batteries. Drums & cymbals are a good choice, as is a vuvuzela or an Aztec death whistle.

[bigstrat2003]

A vuvuzela is mean. I'm not even related to you (I think), and I want to disown you for that suggestion.

[bdangubic]

the absolute best fuck you present is no present at all, there is nothing parents like more than kids that have nothing to do

[tasuki]

As a parent: no. We have way more toys than necessary, and yet keep getting more from all sides. All the parents I know have the same situation.

[pavel_lishin]

There are five stuffed tigers on the floor of our living room right now, liberated from their packages.

There are 37 more in the child's bedroom.

[bdangubic]

I am 51 and have never (nor will ever) buy a toy for a human - pets only

[oblio]

I'm confused. Are you bragging that you never gifted a toy in 51 years?

[bdangubic]

aha, I am. and everyone should strive to be like me

[losvedir]

Are you saying you only give pets as gifts?

[pavel_lishin]

Do you want to expand on that?

[bdangubic]

for kids, only money for college/investment fund. nothing else, ever
