I can't think of any other time that it would be appropriate to register for a birthday than if you have 800 people coming and you've spent $500,000 on the party/guests.

my dad felt that my fiance and i were being rude by registering for our wedding. we went to target.com and picked simple stuff. we needed everything on the list. he thinks that he should give you what he wants you to have, this coming from a man who eloped lol...

birthdays? nah. kinda conceited.
christmas? hell to the naw! the only thing i think is ok to tell people is size/color preferences.

I like registering kids for their birthdays and Christmas- so family from far away can get a gift that isn't a duplicate. But once you hit, oh, 10 - nope!
When my eldest daughter was four, we went into Toys R Us to register for Christmas. She started to throw a fit - lying down on the floor and wailing fit - yelling "I don't need any more toys! I have enough!".
Parents were stunned.
I was stunned.
(Shhh . . .she's still my favorite child)

We registered for a bottle of good tequila knowing at least one of the husband's friends from work would find it entertaining and buy it. Otherwise everything else was your regular dishes/linens/household needs stuff.
