I love gift cards

I wish everyone would just give me gift cards for Christmas...and other holidays for that matter.  Personally, I'm NEVER offended by receiving gift cards or cash.  This etiquette thing with not giving money because it's not as thoughtful is such crap.  How about when people give you stuff you never use?  How about when it's the type of gift you're forced to show off somehow otherwise people will know you didn't like it?  That's weak.
