QotD: Christmas shopping

Filed under: Business, Humour, Quotations — Tags: , , — Nicholas @ 01:00

A day in the life of a male Christmas shopper is one of trepidation and resignation.

Let’s be honest, the expectations on a guy at Christmas time to come up with the perfect gift are tremendous. Are we equal to the task? No.

Not to paint everyone with the same brush, and there are exceptions which prove the rule, but guys are out of their element when it comes to Christmas shopping … or shopping for that matter.

Christmas shopping for women is like deer hunting season for guys. They prepare for the season, they’ve spent hours scouting, they’re dressed for it, they read all the magazines, purses and budgets are finalized, and when they hit the woods, er, I mean the stores … they are ready to make the kill.

Men on the other hand, are like the deer caught in the proverbial headlights.
