Human beings, even ones you don’t know that well, all have
two things in common: They love to laugh, and they love getting gifts. In fact,
speaking on behalf of all humans, if we may, we really can’t decide which we
love more—laughs or gifts. That, of course, is where gag gifting comes in. Gag
gifts make the perfect stocking stuffers and white elephant
gifts, but there is an art to choosing them. You’ll want to find something that
shows you know the other person and pokes a little good-natured fun at their
quirks. “Good-natured” is the key phrase there.
From classic gag gifts to the strangest things, you had no
idea even existed, this list has it all. We’re talking about everything from
cat pants (for humans) to chicken harnesses (for actual chickens). Many of
these will make the perfect gifts for your brother, but we’ve got
something for everyone in your life. That said, you might want to balance out a
joke gift with something a little more serious, depending on the occasion, so
make sure you also check out our guides to the best gifts for men, women,
and kids. Note: These gifts are best paired with the perfect ugly
winter sweaters. Happy pranking!
