A woman wrote to Miss Manners, asking how to respond to
friends who thanked her for the theater tickets she gave them as a present, but who said that they wished the seats had been closer to the stage.
Miss Manners gave her usual amusing reply: Tell your friends
that you won't be running the risk of disappointing them again.
I think that, in this day and age, the gift-giver is lucky
that the friends didn’t call the box office and help themselves to an upgrade
on her credit card.
