This t-shirt perfectly sums up their frustrations in a funny apparel design that can be worn on weekends or when they’re hanging out in their man cave!

8. Christmas Vacation
For those of you that love the cult-classic Christmas Vacation, getting your loved ones or friends a movie-inspired mug will surely brighten up their mood. In the movie, Clark and Eddie are sipping eggnog while looking at Eddie’s RV parked in the driveway.
Eddie tells Clark not to get too attached to the vehicle because he’ll be taking it with him when he leaves “next month.” After hearing this, Clark spits his eggnog all over the floor in shock, revealing his famous moose mug.

9. Personalized Socks
With the colder months upon us, items such as socks, scarves and mittens are needed to trap the warmth close to us. However, giving standard socks is boring and dull. Instead, take a picture of a friend or family member making a funny face.
When you have some private time, go online and order that individual some personalized socks with the face they made plastered on the outside. This gift will be useful and give the recipient a good laugh in return.

10. Addressing the Neediness
Do you have a pet that can’t seem to get enough of your affection and love? You could be in the middle of a Zoom conference call or studying for a test, and they’ll plop down and take a snooze right on your keyboard.
Playing into this need for attention, we can plan a funny prank on our family and friends. Inside the Pet Petter box, we can plant a thoughtful and endearing gift that will surely be appreciated by the recipient. However, when they open your present and see the Pet Petter, they’ll have to pretend to enjoy your gift. Once they open the box, they’ll see the real gift waiting for them. This idea is a great way to pull a fast one on friends and close relatives.
