I'd suggest SCP. There's a "there" there, besides the Apple Store.

I dunno. My oul' Woman's pretty tough and rough and ready (imagine if
you will, living with _me_ for twenty-five years) and we give each other
useful and nice down-to-earth presents, but y'know, whenever I give her

and I get ... you know.
