My brother is turning 40 and one of the things my family is doing for him is buying him a digital picture frame and fill it with pictures of “40” and I need some more ideas.
So far I have
Baking a giant cookie with 40 spelled out in chocolate chips
Spelling 40 in a bowl of alphagetti
Getting a Wii fit age of 40 (along with the depressed looking Mii)
I have about a week to get the photos together, so something quick would be best.
Oh great and creative Dopers, any ideas?
You could use pictures of random signs that have the number 40 – a 40 m.p.h. sign, a building’s street address number, the price from something selling for 40 cents/pound or $40.00, the sign from a 40th street or 40th ave. if there is one near you, any kind of dial that you can put at 40 (an oven timer set for 40 minutes?) These are off the top of my head, but I’m sure you could come up with many more.
There’s always this movie poster, depending on his circumstances/sense of humor.
Oh I have bottles with 40% alcohol.
Tttt
dddd
Picture of a S&W .40 semi automatic pistol.
Also think cheap beer comes in 40 ounce bottles.
You could take a picture of a UB40 CD cover.
I just turned 40 in February.
My wife got me 40 presents and gave them to me over the course of a week.
I live in Canada so the bottles would have ml not ounces.
I might check it out just in case, the odd thing has ounces on it.
My absolute favorite -
I gave my brother a very nice golf shirt, embroderied with : I M 4 T. (I am forty)
You could do the same thing with a t-shirt -
Hilarious -
A picture of a 40 year old bottle of whisky, which you’ve bought for him.
The chocolate chips might melt in a way that the number isn’t visible anymore. You could bake a loaf of bread in the shape of a 4 and a 0.
Are we looking for funny, or cute? What’s his sense of humor like? You could take a picture of a size 40DD bra. Only if that would be cute/funny to him!
A departure from the “40” motif, you may find this inspirational…
