We must band together to get this woman her Christmas wish list!


My brother and I have decided not to exchange Christmas presents this year. Instead, we are going to help someone in need. You know how they have those Christmas Lists that kids write and they get printed in the paper? Well, we got way lucky. My brother found someone's Christmas List on the Metro North, while commuting from NYC back to Connecticut! Actually, the guy who was sitting next to him forgot it when he was collecting the rest of his fancy Wall Street Investment Reports and got off the train in Mamaroneck.

I would like to propose that we all band together and get this poor girl the items from her "dream wish list." I think this girl has really and truly embraced the spirit of Christmas. Her boyfriend already put notes next to everything so some of the legwork is even done for us!

Let's pause for some commentary. I like how her poor, obviously long-suffering boyfriend, put a question mark next to bicycle and "whatever the newest Chanel makeup is (as long as I don't already have it.)" What is this guy supposed to do? Look through your makeup bag, take notes, and then go to the counter and say "Give me everything newer than this?"

She also wants Louis Vuitton City Guides, which you can clearly get on the cheap by another publisher. Has she heard of Fodors? Frommers? Phonies? Okay, maybe not that last one. But, she wants classic literature cheap. In fact, that's the only thing she is price sensitive to. Poor Dickens is rolling over in his grave right now.

Men, please listen up. Any girl who obsesses this much over purses at this price level is wasting your time. There will always be some new, fancier, more expensive purse she needs to have -- and don't think it ends there. If $1000 purses don't keep her appeased, she'll be trading you like yesterday's Louis in no time.

I had to check the price on the Cartier Love Bracelet. While Cartier won't give you prices, it does appear it is $6200 according to other websites. Yowsers. Honey, I know you're living in a bubble...a purse and Cartier filled bubble with your noise canceling ear phones on, but we're in a recession. R E C E S S I O N. Do you know how many people will claim less than $6200 in income this year on their taxes? Probably one for each perfectly coiffed hair on your head.

My dog and I are currently sharing a chenille blankie that set me back $29. I'm warm though. I wonder how much warmer I would be if I were under the fancy Hermes Orange blanket. Would I be $1096 warmer? I dunno.

All right. So we have a plan laid out in front of us. If 150 of us can each contribute a dollar to this poor thing, we can buy her the Smythson Passport Cover.

Who's with me?

Here is what a LV Speedy looks like

I am not a woman but how is that fashionable? It looks like something you would bury a chihuahua in.

Make no mistake, if I were rich enough to be able to spend 1000s of dollars on my girlfriend, I would do it. Maybe some really good wine and some really good food, tickets to a really good opera or play, a really good 1st edition of a book she loves, and finally some really good... you know :groucho:

But this ho asks her husband/boyfriend to spend thousands of dollars on, what? Not even stuff that's valuable. Just stuff that shows off "Hey! I am rich!" She even wants her books to be Louis Vuitton - what's wrong with DK Travel? Even her DOG BLANKETS have to be brand name.

Now I know there are people who will jump into this thread to say that this entitled princess keeps people employed ("Without her all the yacht-makers would be out of a job!!!!") but something makes me think we should cut out the middleman. Boil her alive and feed her to the poor! :yumyum:

Didn't you say you won a million dollars?

It's not even that; we should be thankful that some people are frivilous enough to agree to give their money away to people that'll make more sensible decisions with it.

Yeah but "giving money to people who will make more sensible decisions with it" is more than likely how her Wall Street fund-manager boyfriend got his riches in the first place.
 
if a woman I was with asked me to buy her a $1k bag (or the other over priced crap on the list), I'd dump her, even if I could easily afford to buy 10 of them - conspicuous consumption makes me ill

I'd be happy if someone gave me a list like this. It would ensure they were genuinely surprised when they unwrap their Cadbury's selection box.
 
Probably a hot chick who uses sex for leverage on her man to get herself stuff. I hope he cheats on her and she finds out in the worst way. And it goes without saying that he shouldn't buy her anything and work on an exit strategy.

I fully support this paragraph.
 
The list does say DREAM Wish list not Realistic Wish List

With that amount of detail (e.g. "a dark color, not black") I don't think she is just dreaming.
 
Guys, it's a Christmas Wishlist. Nobody writes those properly anymore, and so I'm glad that she took the time do so.

In any case, she's probably a normal woman that likes the purses a little too much and her boyfriend is probably a complete idiot for actually trying to buy everything on the list. Don't hate on an anthropomorphized version of the invisible creator of a list whose authenticity you have absolutely no idea about. She's entitled to her expensive tastes in whatever purses, granting for a second that this isn't just an obvious parody (which would lend even more credence to the "her boyfriend is a complete idiot" theory) and you guys savaging a creation of your own for exhibiting commercial values you've ascribed to such a creation is fairly pathetic.
 
Wanting a $1000 dollar purse when a $25 dollar one (I think thats the cost in a store I saw) will do is dumb.

Not when everyone you know has a $1000 dollar purse and you really care about impressing them, or, at least, avoiding the "shame" of having a purse that costs less than $500 or so.

It simply will not do!
