If someone were to tell you...

shadowhound · 08-15-2005, 08:58 PM

If someone you were dating were to tell you that they have purchased a gift for you, but refuses to tell you what it is and instead gives you these hints (some untentionally), what would oyu think they were getting you?

- It is reasonably expensive (circa $180)
- It is different colours
- You can get one in green
- It comes in a set
- It can easily fit in the backseat of a car

Morbid curiosity is killing me, what do you reckon?

First thing that comes to mind is a low end guitar or bass (but not lowest end) [img]smile.gif[/img]

The set would have to be an amp and cord. Maybe.

Other than that, I'm out of ideas.

Diffrent coloured, very expensive boots?

1. Emerald cufflinks
2. Potted plants
3. Pot plants! (small ones)
4. Autographed books w/green covers
5. Used sports equipment (with grass stains)
6. Strangely enough, the first thing I thought of was a baby car seat. I've seen them in green plaid.

Unless you at one time pointed this 'gift' out, then these rules may apply.

1. Cost is irrelevant
2. In a crayola world, this now limits it to 8 colors, and 64 shades, with an additional 64 sub shades, or 32,768 color possibilities.
3. Green is irrelevant due to the other 32,767 possibilities.
4. A set = plural, so more than one. Relevant only to the beholder.
5. Size only matters..Irrelevant.

So, a matched set of jade handled black powder Spanish revolvers.

Baby seat!

Calaethis Dragonsbane · 08-15-2005, 10:20 PM

why not wait and see? my guess would be... hmm... maybe a graphics card? naah, too much to hope for [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Matched seatcovers is my first guess... but unless they're leather, I'm hard-pressed to imagine them around $180. Window tinting?

Ok well to eleminate certain guesses, I do not have a car. The fitting in the backseat of a car was just to limit the size. NO BABY SEAT [img]redface.gif[/img] !

CD: Wouldnt be shocked if it was a graphics card, she is well aware of my technosexuality.

Felix: You are so very helpful

Lurcern: Oooh that would have been nice, but no.

Jorath: Nope
