Yow! I want to get a great, unique, 50th birthday present for a friend/colleague (guy). I need the help of someone way more creative, clever, funny, inventive, than I, but someone with equivalent economies. I guess I’d go $50 - $100 on the guy, but past that, he’s not THAT great. Oh, man o man, dopers (I already thought of that!), I really need your help!

Since this question does not have a factual answer and is more of a poll, I think it is better suited for IMHO.

I’ll move it for you.
