Is it Wrong to Give a 'Used' Item to your Wife as a Gift?

Scenario -

I've just recently been asked by a male friend if it's okay for a man to give a gift to a woman that has been used by someone else?... "Such as" I asked "pawned jewelry, estate jewelry or a used appliance?" ...he laughed and wasn't sure it made a difference but I assured him after a few moments of deliberation it makes a difference and is just a wee bit complicated a) because every receiver is different and b) the gift itself would also play an important factor.

Personally, I think that depending upon the sincerity or reason behind the gift then the end result would play out accordingly... such as...lets say your spouse came home with a used Kirby vacuum that has no box, no instructions, no extra pieces, is crusty dirty and looks well, used!... I'd think a big fat no is in order if he thinks I'm going to clean it, then clean with it!

But, lets say for arguments sake the gift is estate jewelry like a stunning bracelet or a pawned diamond ring or a gorgeous pair of earrings, would it be okay to gift a 'used' item then? Remembering that it is always the thought that counts...I say 'go for it' but please be sincere with the gift and the reason behind buying it and giving it (and perhaps don't advertise it came from smokey Joe's as opposed to Tiffanys!)

p.s. by the way boys, do not under any circumstances bring your wife home an appliance as a romantic 'gift' at any time of the year unless, you want to sleep on the couch for the rest of it!!!    

...so please, my awesome readers...let me know what you think and feel on this subject so we can help out our fellow man!

Male Body Hair, Love it or Lose it?

Summer sun strips clothing from men's bodies but sadly, it doesn't take their body hair! Our good ole' boys are packing an awful lot of information under, in and around there and everywhere. Therefore, it's time to take a little lookie loo at what's going on in their hair department, before one of them wirey suckers falls into someone's mouth...I'd be gaggin'!!

Interesting note: As men age panic begins to set in as hair vanishes from their head and mysteriously begins to grow out of their ears and nose. While women, well, we just can't wait to get rid of our hair so we've been known to rip it out on purpose! 

If this is you or resembles you in any way and you are and always have been single you need to ask yourself a question: Love it or lose it? Answer: Lose it!

(...unless you're still weaning yourself off of your sweatpants it's all gotta go sometime but you're not my old man anyways and some ladies love furry creatures ;)

Hint: Although the troll doll tattoo is a rather unique and creative approach in dealing with what nature gave you, do you think he regrets getting that tattoo and wishes he'd chosen a razor? It also makes me wonder if any of the above have the toenail hygiene thing down pat, yet?
