It looks like a blind, one-armed first grader did the wrapping. I'm bad with presents but I keep it under wraps.

Yes. Its the one time every year I get my wife back for her chronic dishwasher loading ignorance.

You my Arky boy, Pioneer!

Some items are simply not wrapable. (A tricycle?)

Keep being you.

I tell my wife I wrap them that bad so she'll do it, but really it's the best I can do.

Yeah I’m an awful wrapper. I wrapped one this afternoon for my wife and it was the best one yet.

Practice makes perfect.

Try a few times on a box laying around the house.

I find a box to put a gift in, tape that bitch up, but a bow and card on it and that's how I wrap.

frick all that wrapping paper nonsense. Most of the gifts I buy are for kids anyway and they don't want to have to tear through all that bullshite to see what they got. All of that wrapping paper creates a bunch of mess anyway.

They get my gift, they pull of the ribbon, rip open the box and pull out their gift.

I'll start out wrapping a perfectly square or rectangular box, it turns out alright, and I get overconfident.

The moment I move on to something asymmetrical, my wrapping skills devolve like I had a stroke. I somehow then manage to screw up the previously easy boxes too.

Happens every year. It's uncanny.

I can’t wrap a gift for shite.

And I’m extremely artistic. I can do pretty much anything that requires good hand skills, have done clay sculpting without training, do hand-cut custom matting and framing, etc. But despite all of my artistic ability, I can’t wrap a damn gift.

I don’t

Five-year-olds wrap much better than I do.

Gift bags for the MF’ing win!

I gave up long ago being a good gift wrapper. I'm either gonna make it a joke at how shitty it's wrapped or get someone else to do it. Or bag it

Buddy of mine from high school spent his teens and college years wrapping for J.C Penny, then later Macy’s during December and a few days in January to supplement his allowance.

It’s pretty straightforward. Once you master the double reverse fold under/tape method, you’ll have seamless packaging for life.
