What the heck Yahoo!?
What the heck Yahoo!?
Honestly, the articles they've been linking to a lot lately are really pathetic. Somebody got paid more than $3 to write this!
Common gifts you should never give anyone, ever, but especially around the holidays
If you're wondering why I'm saying $3, that's the most common offer for upfront payment for an article on Associated Content and I've read plenty of articles that are much better than this one on Yahoo!.
Let's see . . .
Themed gifts, more than twice. Okay, I can see why. Of course, I never knew what to get for my Daddy. He was basically impossible.
A holiday sweater. Okay, I agree there.
A gym membership. Yeah, I get that, though right now, I would probably think it is pretty cool. However, I don't like most modern exercise equipment. All that automated stuff. I liked the old stuff where it's smaller and I fit.
A subscription to a magazin you don't know that they read. Yeah, I agree. You could just ask me some interests of mine and I'm sure you could find a magazine that matches. It wouldn't be that difficult.
You old pots and pans or your old anything. Yeah, I agree, unless they are wanted or needed.
A stuffed animal to anyone over the age of 8. Hey now! I like my stuffed animals! I have a stuffed animal collection. I just don't need more. However, if somebody got me some special stuffed animal, I'd like it! There are so many cute ones by now!
An I.O.U. for a gift you plan to give. Yeah, I can see the problem here. However, sometimes it does seem necessary.
A dusty tin full of edible stuff. Yeah, I agree, make sure that the tin is clean and the edibles are fresh.
Still, just 8 gifts? Honestly? Shouldn't there be at least two more?
I often feel like I could write better articles than the ones feature on Yahoo! lately. I often wish I could have those jobs - just e-mail in my articles.
