Jim Gaffigan on the gifts no one should give for the holidays

Some of you may have already completed your holiday shopping, but most of us are normal.  If you are like me, over the next couple weeks you'll have the following thought: "Oh, I should probably get that person a present."

Maybe it will be for a friend, a neighbor, or a business associate. If you don't get them a present, it could be awkward. Better to err on the generous side. Now what you get them is obviously up to you, but here is what you should not give anyone this holiday season.

Don't give them food. You are giving someone a gift, not arriving at a potluck.  I understand cookies, candy and fruit may seem like a thoughtful, delicious idea, but nobody wants anything perishable.
