Okay, brilliant hive minds. I need ideas for a cheap gift for my dd workmate. (Our Xmas party was delayed)

I want the gift to be acceptable but send a subtle f**k you message 😊

Surrounded by idiots
Why men hate women

Sports Direct mug.

Tic Tacs breath mints and an extra-strength deoderant.

How about some discounted crap Xmas biscuits from home bargains that obviously cost 50p

girlmom21 · 05/01/2022 11:37

Ask the other poster for their child's haul of left over Christmas sweets

Bluebluemoon · 05/01/2022 11:43

Some excellent ideas here - I'm chuckling my head off!

I always find anything a bit scratched and battered with the bargain bin sticker still on it is nicely passive-aggressive (I know that's an oxymoron but ynwim).

What is Kris Kringle? Do you mean Secret Santa?

roarfeckingroarr · 05/01/2022 11:53

Feminist literature every time

AppleJane · 05/01/2022 11:56

Marmite chocolate.

GertrudePerkinsPaperyThing · 05/01/2022 13:14

I like the idea of feminist literature. Sends a good message. Plus the breath mints maybe?

As an aside, why do you think that mug girlmum linked to is based around someone who can’t properly straighten their middle finger?

Sockpile · 05/01/2022 13:19

A sports direct mug

Isonthecase · 05/01/2022 13:29

Feminist tea towel?

EurghCobwebs · 05/01/2022 13:34

From "I want one of those"

@EurghCobwebs 😂

YES!! One of these mugs filled with mints. Bonus points if you can buy the little fondant filled chocolate cocks.

SwanShaped · 05/01/2022 13:38

I like the Sports Direct mug idea. Or plain black socks.

Boopeedoop · 05/01/2022 13:49

I got a silicone masturbation aid for my asshole colleagues, I cleared it in writing from the HR manager anything went.

Big boss tried to tell me off. I showed her the letter from hr manager clearing it.

HR manager is bosses daughter 🤣🤣

A desk plaque that says "my pronoun is cunt"

Oldenoughtobedead · 05/01/2022 14:28

A badge that says “pronouns he/him”

Hugoslavia · 05/01/2022 21:49

Am laughing so much at the Sports Direct Mug.
I was going to suggest something from the stationary cupboard!

Hugoslavia · 05/01/2022 21:50

Love the pronoun badge idea too!
