It would be more believable if he wasn't totally dodging everyone who asked what the gift was. How can you make a topic about a $200 gift and not be prepared for people asking what it was, usually TC is better than this no i mean his reputation is solidified as sword guy. so natural assumption would be something sword related. and then when he confirms she wouldn't realize that it was a $200 gift which makes it a niche item and then him saying she was weirded out by it by cringing out a thanks... --- http://i.imgur.com/4ihiyS2.jpg "I am not gay!

I dunno I haven't been friendly enough with any coworker I've had that giving or receiving a $200 gift would be appropriate tbh. I have given and received gifts from coworkers but nothing more than maybe 20 bucks.

If TC isn't a troll making this up, he's got a gaping gunshot wound in his social skills.
A) Giving large gifts like that to coworkers is extremely inappropriate and makes them feel very uncomfortable. B) If you're going to buy women, you have to be rich. Life is not a Harvest Moon game. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

I mean, if you're talking about me, then I only got a twenty-five dollar Foodland gift card (that was a gift to every employee) and a bag of homemade confections.
Oh yeah, and my boss gave me his secret santa present that he didn't want at the company potluck the past Wednesday. --- Number XII: Larxene. The Organization's Savage Nymph. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I'm guessing that your gift was something she has no interest in whatsoever and you were placing a lot of expectations on her about it. This is why I just make homemade chocolates for everybody for Christmas, everybody likes them and it's never weird to get chocolate for Christmas.

Homemade baked goods are always a hit, and people tend to think of them as being more personal and thoughtful than storebought gifts, but they actually require far less thought because everybody likes cookies.

I have to question the intelligence of anyone who actually thinks I would give a weapon to a woman, and a co-worker at that.
It's hilarious because what I got her is something I'm sure many of you own and have enjoyed over the years, something completely normal to you. It's even more hilarious that I now know the gift isn't working like I thought it would, and not because she told me either, so she probably hasn't even taken it out of the box yet. Yeah, I'm done with her. Oh well, I'll just have some fun myself, just a few more hours, haha. --- Nil- ... Copied to Clipboard!
