    Default Evil Christmas wrapping and gifts

    It has become a tradition amongst my brothers to make it a pain in the ... to open our Christmas presents from each other, or come up with totally useless gifts. Last year, the best one was a 0% AR10. A chunk of aluminium, a steel rod and assorted wood screws and springs from ball point pens, all wrapped in an AR10 box. The changing of look from excitement to utter disappointment was great.

    Duct tape and zip ties are getting old for wrapping gifts, so other ideas are in the works. Anyone have any new ideas for tormenting siblings or significant others?

    You could do a wooden box and put it together with bolts and then use stainless wire to secure the bolts like they do in the aviation industry.

    That packing tape with the fiberglass strands is some seriously tough stuff as well if you don?t have a knife handy.

    Metal box and weld it closed.

    Wood box, steel band straps, security screws with an obscure head. Inside a heart shaped chocolate box containing dried dog poop.

    Have to make sure the gift inside is flammable so torching it open would destroy the present. Maybe a one pound can of gunpowder?

    Whatever you give them and however you package it just make sure to include plenty of glitter. That shit gets everywhere. It will be months before they don?t look like they just came from a strip joint.

    Boom!!! No more brother.

    Would be funny if you could make it look like it was stacked full of cash that burned up.

    This was my idea. I was thinking steel foil and some tack welds. Or Ray's idea about the wooden box, but just glue everything.

    If someone gave me a gift that required me to download a mobile app that needs access to all my contacts and photos would piss me off.
