Oh, ok, fair dues. I had a mental pic of little Timmy opening a brightly wrapped box to find a certificate for a carbon offset. This is the sort of gift that makes serial killers.

Myself, I prefer bituminous coal. It's got two tuminouses, so you can't go wrong.

Personally, I would prefer that people donate to the ASPCA, local humane society or shelter rather than give me gifts.
But yeah, give carbon offsets to Little Timmy and he's going on a 5 day 7 state killing spree. Definitely making Santa's naughty list next year.

I'm selling my relatives for Christmas.
Wanna buy a couple of annoying Catholic women?
