Ah, selflessness.

Mom: I want to get her (name redacted) something more substantial.

Me: It's unnecessary, don't worry about it.

Mom: No, I want it to mean something.

Me: Well, I think a gift certificate to the movies would be nice.

Mom: That is a good idea. Which movie theater?

Me: It doesn't matter.

Mom: But which does she go to?

Me: AMC, most of the time.

Mom: Forget it, I'm not schlepping all the way over there to get a damn gift certificate.
