Need suggestions for a gift for me from Japan

[Dari]

Wife and kids are in Japan. She hasn't given me a gift in years and really wants to give me something. But I have no idea what I want. She suggests a robot but I wouldn't know what to do with it. Most things that I want I buy so I can't think of anything that would excite me. I would lean towards electronics but have no idea.

 

[MagnusTheBrewer]

Ecchi of course.

panties from the vending machine would be the obvious unique choice.

Posted this way too early. The kids aren't in bed yet.

Some of us are mature enough to talk about our sick twisted fantasies at 4:26pm.

Snacks? Giant cheeto logs, soy-flavored rice crackers, Pocky flavors other than strawberry and chocolate, the real made-in-Japan version of Hi-Chew.....

 

[Carson Dyle]

Sounds like you and the wife are pretty rusty (or clueless) about how the whole gift thing works. What's the point in her buying you something that you select?

I'm going to take a wild guess that neither of you do anything for a living that requires even a hint of creativity.

That would sure explain his reaction to reply #3.

Interesting -- I liked the tomato and the ... cheddar? (was long ago)... Pretz flavors I've tried before. I have no idea what to expect from a tea-flavored pretzel stick

It's mildly sweet. And awesome.

Japanese hooker so you can be sure you got the authentic thing.

Have her kidnap Isao Takahata and force him to admit half of anime is made just to mess with western minds.

I was wondering what that strawberry store I walked into was all about.

have her send you a kobe cow and bull. Start breeding them here. Then you can share with your atot brothers some really nice bulk beef

 

[sdifox]

Real wasabi roots

Mind blown. But I think there is an export ban on them.

I drink green tea, but can't stand any other food product with the words green tea on them.

and then he would have to hire a professional cow massager

 

[WhoBeDaPlaya]

I wouldn't mind a Gatebox

anything that can Samurai-you up. Kimono, Gi, some swaggy Geta, a Hakama, or even (heavens forbid) a Nihonto !

because Samurai are cool.
