Cool Gift of the Day

What it is:
A hilarious book describing all of the worst possible relatives, from "Holiday Drunk" to "Grandpa Speedo".
Why we love it:
The kids are back in school, Halloween is behind us, and the weather is turning quite chill. Oh sure, fall may bring many pleasant things, hot chocolate, fall apples, crisp and sunny mornings, but sadly with the good comes the bad, and for many people, the bad comes in the form of endless family gatherings. Everyone has a few nuts on the old family tree, but some families seem more... well, nutty, than others. For those who are looking forward to a few months of holiday lunacy, consider this fabulously funny book, 50 Relatives Worse Than Yours. Your recipient may recognize a few of the characters, like "Holistic New Age Aunt" and "The Cheek Pincher", but hopefully most of the cast will seem far worse than what your hapless friend will actually have to contend with this holiday season. Of course, if you want, you can always give this book as a gift to a few choice relatives. Maybe then they'll get the hint.
Who we'd give it to:
Those with crazy family, your own crazy family members, anyone in need of some ironic Christmas cheer.
Where to get it:
From
Amazon.com for a bitterly funny $10.17
