Gag Christmas Gift for Short Man

Thanks to everyone that responded. Lots of great ideas. As someone said in one of the posts, eventually this will wear thin. I will have to come up with just plain ol' gag gifts. Once again, I appreciate everyone taking the time to respond to my question.

Thanks,

I agree with susanmajp's post.

But if you are set on a gag gift how about quick grow plant food or a little stepstool or a thick book to sit on in a chair .

I think making some "BBQ Short Ribs" would be appropriate!

How about a money tree. Get a nice branch, paint it red, I used red nail polish, then once dried, tied bills to the tree as leaves. Placed the branch in a pot and gave it as a beautiful gift.

How about a mushroom shaped pillow he can hide under in case it rains?

Are you sure he thinks these gag gifts are as much fun as you do? I know a few short men who have great senses of humor, but after a while that joke wears thin, and truth be told, they are as sensitive about their height as anyone else is about their own "shortcomings." No one likes their inadequacies continually pointed out to them. Maybe it's time to step back and reconsider. He may be short in stature, but sounds like a very big person with a huge sense of self.

How about home made shortbread cookies, or shortcake, or a package of Scottish shortbread?
Or a can of shortening? Like he needs to be shortened more. . .
I'm so funny.

How about some shortening, or short bread cookies?

Providing he has a good sense of humour (which you both seem to have), how about giving him a pair of wrist sweat bands but tell him they're legwarmers? :)

A pair of children's knit gloves in a wild color in case he expects to be "handled with kid gloves" as many people do.
