Any ideas on what I should get for a present?

My birthday is coming up this week and while I don't make a big deal about it, my girlfriend asked me what I want. I spent about 250 on her for her birthday so she said she'd do the same for mine.

The thing is I really don't want anything that badly. I thought of a couple things.

- Flat panel LCD monitor
- Nintendo DS + couple games
- New leather arm chair
- PSP

There are downsides to all of those things though. My monitor is fine and I don't have a real need for a new one, especially not at 250 bucks. I don't like spending money myself or people spending money on me for stuff I don't really desire that much.

For the DS, I'm not really a big fan of handheld systems, and I know I'd beat the 2 games I got with it, put the DS in my drawer and never touch it again.

The chair... I wouldn't want to blindly buy a chair without knowing if it is comfortable or not and there are no real chair stores around here or anything.

PSP... same as DS, though if a gun was to my head I'd take the DS over the PSP because it has better games.

Any suggestions?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Yea I know about that, but I'm all about the games. That stuff can be nice sometimes, but it isn't a selling point.

But maybe it can do things I don't know about. What are some of the best things you can do with it?

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I have no sense of fashion nor do I really care about it. I wear what I find comfortable. Usually I wear a white t-shirt and shorts every day unless it is under 40 degrees. Then I'll wear a white t and sweats. I really don't buy new clothes that often. Only for special occasions like if I need a new suit, pants, etc.


The thing about the monitor is I'm going to need to buy a new video card probably. The video card right now I have is pretty crappy. I pulled it from an old computer because my previous card crapped out on me. So that is probably out of the equation.

I might just get a DS after all. They are impossible to find now though...

What are nice things the PSP can do?

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I don't really care that much about how people see me. It isn't exactly looking like a slob. I don't wear paint-stained pants and shirts with holes. I take good care of my clothes and have a lot of clothes, but I usually wear my casual clothes when I go out. I never was a fan of jeans at all. Not comfortable at all to me.

If people want to judge me on how I dress that is their business. I don't do that to people myself, but I don't control the world. I can only be who I am.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Everyone has their different tastes. I personally never understood why it was social etiquette where wearing suites is nicer than wearing something like a sweat suit. I guess it is all a matter of opinion.

That is one of the things I like about my girlfriend. We both think alike on social etiquettes. She prefers me to dress down instead of dressing up. I like the casual look on women a lot too.

One thing I'll never do is change who I am to fit in though. I'll be who I am even if I'm the only person in the world who is a certain way.

Double Post:
I think it's going to end up being an ipod.

I was speaking idiomatically.

I ended up getting a DS Onyx with FFIII and New Super Mario Bros.

Thanks for the input fellas.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?
