You know, this is pretty sad. But I'm thinking about all the presents I got in my life and pondering which one was really cool to me. And none come to mind. Haha.
On the giving side. There is one gift I gave a dear friend once, that I would totally and utterly love to get myself too. (Well, not the same one, but a similar one.)
Was a person I knew for several years in WoW and for some reason we always stayed in touch, even when not playing together. And I made an ingame movie of my character searching all over Azeroth for flowers, with this orchestral quest like song on the background, only to have a rogue ninja them from me everytime. Until finally getting in Orgrimmar, buying a flower bouquet from a vendor. And when walking from the vendor, turns out the vendor was the ninja'ing rogue. And then I hand the bouquet over to the person viewing the movie with a fancy HAPPY BIRTHDAY text.
I was quite proud of the gift movie after it was complete. And thought to myself, how I would love to get something like that sometime.
It was also tons of fun to make! Added a blooper reel and everything.
