Concept of Wedding Registries
This is a topic on the mind because a friend is about to get married. The Wedding Registry is clearly one of the greatest inventions ever, since you can dictate what you get. However, why the hell hasn't Best Buy introduced wedding registries yet? The woman gets all the silverware and china and cuisinarts and $500 napkins and shit, why the hell can't the guy put in for his Harmon Kardon AVR 435 7-channel receiver? Hmmm?? Just allow individual people to make a $50 contribution towards it, it's not like 3 years from now they're going to remember who got them the f(*%cking toaster, so individualism in wedding gift-giving is totally out the window.Well, except for thinking outside the box and going in together on a most excellent bar for Matt and G. They'll remember that 20 years from now. Gesina perhaps not so fondly. But we are all thankful she still loves us.

I do love you guys! And I'm glad we have the bar - not only are the guys at work impressed as hell that I have a (fully stocked) bar in my living room, but I also agree with the assessment that gift registries are pretty one-sided. Guys should not be expected to get excited about towels and fondue pots.
