Grandma is still confused about the messages you sent her.

To show your mates how much you hate to love them, you should get them something stupid this year which pokes fun at their personalities. Get a laugh from these 17 types of phone cases, which’ll fit your friends’ personalities like a glove.

Every time you pick up your phone, you get to intertwine your fingers with this inanimate detached hand, which was modelled after the creator’s wife. When you’re feeling lonely, you can even rest your head on the loving palm. This is the real gift of true love.

Everyone has decided that this year, your friend finally need to part with their 20 year old Nokia phone.
