A new imponderable for you all.
What are the protocols, for ostensibly heterosexual non-familial males, buying random gifts for each other?
Say you see a splendid ascot that would just absolutely complement his lovely crushed velvet blazer. Is that within the bounds of friendship?
As another example, is there a difference if I were to buy a tie for say, Cation versus Ed (other then marriage and or girlfriends)?
Also if there are no protocols, should there be some?
And don't worry I have a long winded post still to come.
-Cheers

If you and your boys are close like that, you aren't buying them any kind of under garments, and want to spend your money on them - go for it.
ostensibly?
i do not think that word means what you think it means. or there's something you're not telling us.
drinks are obviously fine, i think t-shirts are within reason, but ties are a little murky.
It can mean apparent, or pretended! Besides making the situation as murky as possible only adds to the fun.
I don't want your ascot. Ironically, the word I have to type in for verification is "alick"
ostensible:
1 : intended for display : open to view
2 : being such in appearance : plausible rather than demonstrably true or real
Ostensible:
1. outwardly appearing as such; professed; pretended: an ostensible cheerfulness concealing sadness.
2. apparent, evident, or conspicuous: the ostensible truth of their theories.
I think the only appropriate gift would be a matching tank top or muscle shirt, where you keep one and wear out together with the particular person you choose to give the gift to
Perhaps with a nice leather vest?
my point was you're calling yourself ostensibly heterosexual.
and mike, i think that's ironic the same way rain on your wedding day is ironic.
Well I am sure some people would say it was ostensible.
Tyler.
You're a douche.
(no, you're not)
ALick.
(actually, this time it is exted. Like if I had an ex named Ted. Which reminds me, I need to call that fucker)
When am I getting a gift?
