Heard in the thread that it’s for your MIL, so you have to pick something that she can’t hate. Professional photos of you and your boo are a good start, but are too easy to just stash away. Get her a spa day to the WORST parlor in town. You pamper her, yet she has the balls to complain? It’ll be flawless —Lockshala

My progressive friend was in law school for environmental law when his (very conservative) mom got him an autobiography of Antonin Scalia for Christmas —thattiredgradstudent

This isn’t totally passive aggressive, more just self centered but I think it would serve this purpose. One year for Christmas my narcissist MIL gave everyone a bag of her favorite things, but not even cool favorite things. It was her favorite gum, candy, pens, etc. I think she was truly trying to be thoughtful, like “I love these things and want to share them with you.” But it definitely came across as “I don’t care enough to know or find out anything you might like so here’s my favorite things.” —hotlavafloor

The best thing you can do is get them something extremely thoughtful and nice. It will absolutely destroy them because they either have to admit they may be wrong about you or convince themselves that they hate the gift. —outoftouch49
