Which Christmas Kind Of Guy Are You?
A. use store purchased boxes to wrap presents with "un-cruppled" white tissue paper as stuffing. Try to use multiple different colored Christmas wrap so that tree has an assortment of colors. I use the special little name tag stickers and try to decorate at least a few with bows and ribbons. I crease the wrapping paper as i fold it to provide crisp corners and neat,professionally looking wrap job.
B. use whatever box is available, usually just remove the packing slip and use the box it shipped in. Whatever packing peanuts or wadded up newspaper it was shipped in is good enough for stuffing. I use the roll of wrapping paper until it's gone, if that means the entire space under the Christmas tree is "lime green with snowflakes" then so be it. The bows are always smushed and a ball point pen writes the names just fine right on the paper. If the wrapping tears while i'm wrapping it then i just use extra tape to patch it up.

Anyone who says they're the "A" option needs to immediately turn in their man card.
And it should've been a public poll. |

I open the plastic walmart bag it came in, take the receipt out, tie the little 'carrying handles' into a bow knot (like on your shoes) and hand them the bag.
Oh yea, then I ask them how many of the presents under the tree are mine. ![]()

Well, I fit under B. But I do use those name tag things. Sometimes I throw a bow on just because they are there (the wife buys all that stuff anyway).

I'm a B for the most part. I try to make it look half way decent, but I'm a terrible wrapper. I use the name tags and stick-on bows, but that's as far as it goes. Oh, and I noticed today that the wrapping paper was bought in 1994 and there's still a boatload of it left. I'm pretty sure it was bought in an after Christmas sale for 75% off or something. It'll probably last until the day I die.

I like to torment my children, so this year a wrapped the boy's Wii in sheet metal (with wrapping paper over it) and the girl's mechanical dog thing accidentally had a leg removed.

By your choices I am neither.
I use gift bags and I crumple the paper. The reason why I use gift bags is because I am lazy and I suck at wrapping. |

I used to do stuff like that to my son, one year I wrapped his present with 2 entire rolls of duct tape. He never seemed to find as much amusement in it as I did.

I strive for A, but it comes out B. I'm a terrible wrapper, but at the same time I use a variety of papers and make my own tags out of the little pieces of wrapping paper that are left over.

Where is the Christmas Jokester option? You know, when you wrap the gift inside of a box. Then wrap it inside of another box. then another, another, etc.
