Now tagless for your comfort.

If there is a portion of the bachelorette party that's at a home or hotel (usually the start), I bring some piece of lingerie. But if it's strictly a bar-crawl, I don't gift in that situation. I judge the naughty factor by the bride's sense of humor.

Not everyone finds edible underpants funny.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Oh, I should have explained myself: my friend is hosting that party mostly because they're gonna have a very small wedding, for family only (under 50 people). And they still would like to do something with their friends.

First I suggested to organize a wedding-celebration-picnic and thought that that would be my gift, but they're under a tight schedule and it won't happen.

But this party, which will probably involve alcohol, but not strippers or anything like it, is the way to celebrate with friends.

And I need to find a symbolic gift. Hummm.

candlesticks always make a nice gift, and uh, maybe you could find out where she's registered and maybe a place-setting or maybe a silverware pattern.

If you think that Britney Spears being 27 is astounding, consider that Michael Jackson just turned... 50.

“Not dead yet!”

Michael Jackson just turned... 50.

As did Prince and Madonna. Helluva year.

They don't have one. Besides, it has to be all creative and shit. I don't know the first thing about romantic relationships, not alone handling them, so I'm not sure I find something symbolic enough for it.

If hell break loose, I think I'll appear with a bottle of wine and say: "here. Drink. You'll probably need it".

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I guess Britney being 27 still makes me 7 years older than her -- I think the problem is that I'm older than I think!

Ah, that's the problem. So, not lingerie or a wooden salad bowl, then.

I just got a coworker all of the cooking utensils off her registry because the only other things left that I could afford were like literally one wine glass. (The affordable ones had already been purchased...)

This is what is killing me. Madonna - 50? Unpossible. It was just a bit ago that she bouncing around in lingerie and neon and damn, that was over 25 years ago (ok, and likely yesterday too)....crap. Old now.

Yeah, have you seen Madonna lately? She should maybe put some more clothes on. Not that her body isn't impressive, but it looks a little....stringy.
