here's what I know about the couple...

-lesbians
-both are college professors (one teaches film, the other photography)
-both were born in NJ but live in CA
-they shop at trader joe's (whatever that is) and consider themselves hippies (but don't do drugs)

and that's about all I know about them. I don't want to give cash or a gift certificate because that's kinda tacky, but I'm scratching my head trying to think of a $100-200 christmas gift for the couple.

Lesbians love getting dildos as gifts from people they barely know. It's a welcoming note of acceptance that says, "Yes, I know that you're a lesbian, and that's awesome." It's the unwritten rule of lesbian friendship.

Just curious - why the fuck are you spending $200 on a couple you hardly know?

gift certificate to a Subaru dealership? :p



I'd probably end up going with a GC to a major retailer either BM or online and a card. Easier to let them pick out the gift if you don't know them well.

get them a pound of that coffee that gets p00ped out of goats

http://www.seattleweekly.com/f...ffee_taste_like_sh.php

It turns out that civet coffee isn't the only food that comes to us before being conveniently predigested by other animals. Argan oil, for one, a Moroccan specialty, is made from nuts "harvested" from goat poop - in traditional manufacturing, the goats eat the fruit of the Argan tree, then poop out the nut. Amazingly, some human was smart enough to dig around in the poop and find a use for the nuts. I'm so proud to be a human.

Here's a stupid question: If a gay man and a gay woman have intercourse, can it be considered gay sex?

Well lesbians can't have children. Because they have witchcraft. So ya its gay sex.

they're family.

the film teacher is my cousin... I know basically nothing about her because she's ten years older than me. I was like 10 when I moved to NJ, at which point she was already in college, and then moved to LA straight after graduating.

but they're going to be in town for Christmas, so I thought it might be a nice gesture to get a gift for them and ~$100-200 seems appropriate for a couple..
