A Buyer’s Guide to Funny 30th Birthday Presents

Buying a funny gift is much harder than it sounds, and this is especially true for age-related gifts. If you want to give them something that they’ll truly appreciate, you’ll need to shop carefully and avoid the most common pitfalls of raunchy or sarcastic birthday presents. Here are just a few tips!

Be Sensitive With Age Jokes

There’s a fine line between “funny” and “mean” when it comes to age jokes, and if you don’t want to be the jerk that makes the birthday girl start crying, you should stay on the right side of it.

Look for fun, good-humored gifts that aren’t overly rude. Stay away from anything that’s harsh, negative or offensive.

Avoid Their Insecurities

Another component of not being a jerk is avoiding the topics that make the other person uncomfortable.

For example, if they’re sensitive about their receding hairline, they aren’t going to appreciate a “funny” gift about baldness. Don’t force them into a situation where they feel obligated to laugh about something that upsets them.

Keep It Practical

Don’t buy a gag gift that will be discarded as soon as the novelty wears off. Look for something that has practical, real-world use even if it’s telling a silly joke.

This is one of the reasons why t-shirts and coffee mugs make such popular gag gifts; they still serve a purpose even when they’re humorous.

Don’t Be Inappropriate

It’s common for 30th birthday gifts to use swear words or make raunchy jokes. While these might be fine at a private birthday bash with your BFFs, they aren’t suitable for an office party or family gathering.

Think about the setting before you buy a naughty gift. Think about all of the guests that will be there. Think about what is and isn’t appropriate.

Consider the Gift Through Their Eyes

It doesn’t matter if you find it funny. Will they find it funny?

Everyone has a different sense of humor, so put yourself in their shoes and see if the gift is still a good idea.

Will it embarrass them? Will it depress them? Will it get shoved into a drawer and never seen again?

Final words

As you can see, there’s a lot more to buying a good 30th birthday present than just picking up something that cracks a joke about gray hair. If you want them to love your gift, you’ll need to put some thought into it!

These are just a few suggestions for funny 30th birthday gifts. Do you like our choices? Do you think we missed anything?
