    Why is it so difficult for people to get to know their own family members so they don’t need to resort to generic gift guides? If that’s too much, then just ask them what they would like. Communication is dead it seems, despite nearly 100% connection time

      Sometime you want to get closer to people though gifting. Sometime, your loved one has ni idea of want they could want. Sometime, they already have bought themselves the thing they wanted. And you have left with no inspiration.

      All the things I personally want that I don’t already have are things that are too expensive to gift, or involve me physically going to a store to try them out (e.g. clothes).
