The Colorado Independent: Nothing Says Merry Christmas Like Re-Gifting

  • Leslie Robinson · 3 years ago
    Please Help Me Re-Gift There's a painted leopard-skin toaster I've been trying to re-gift for years. Recipients in my family and circle of friends laugh and hand it back every time I've thought it has finally been passed off.


    So who may be the most deserving to receive this priceless item? Maybe the next time I am invited to a "roast" party for a Democratic politician, I'll make sure they are toasted, too.


    Is there anyone on your list who may appreciate a toaster that would blend in at a zoo?

    the bigger question Who thought there was a market for leopard-print toasters? Was it lovingly hand-painted or is it a commercial product of a sweat shop in Indonesia? No wonder they hate us.


    My office has an annual white elephant gift exchange to unload weird stuff like your toaster. Not exactly the most conventional way to build employee moral but we do have fun with it.


    Last year, I got a 99-cent DVD of "The Big Cat" starring Forrest Tucker of F-Troop fame. Haven't had the guts to watch it yet.
