Hello!

I'm just casually starting to think about what to get my boyfriend for his birthday in October. I'm normally really good at thinking of personal, meaningful gifts but I can't seem to focus in on something and thought I'd see if anyone has any cool ideas!

Here's a little background:
-We've been dating for 8 months (but have known each other for much longer)
-Some things he really likes: Ghostbusters (original and new), TMNT, Magic (the Gathering), Dota, art (he's an artist), movies, comics, board games
-Some things I've already gotten for him for holidays, etc.: a really cool Ghostbusters mug, a deck of cards made into a book of 52 things I like about him (thank you, pinterest!), a TMNT pizza cutter, a sketchbook where I personalized the cover with some of his old Magic the Gathering cards

It doesn't need to be elaborate or expensive. I'm currently riding on an idea of getting him pairs of socks for many of the things he likes/things we like together (we watched the entire Rick and Morty catalog together, as well as some other shows...turns out you can socks for pretty much anything).

Thanks for any suggestions!

A really good quality nail clippers and cuticle clippers and/or tweezers. Or a really good horsehair brush or finely made wooden comb.

Yes please, I'd love a boyfriend for my birthday, good looking, and rich if you can swing it.

As a guy, I can tell you not to get him socks. Take him to a SciFi convention if there is one nearby or look at their FB for gift ideas.

No one has mentioned the kind of present I'd like to get from a girlfriend.
