Unless your friends need anger management session, don't give them stuff toys or teddy bears. You could give a small punching bag though.

Well, this is just our opinions and your friends choice can differ. So while we do not fancy teddy bears or stuffed toys as a great gift, your friend could be loving it so go ahead. The same goes for other gifts on the list. So it totally depends on your friends choice, but we think you can choose better than these too common and conventional gifts.
