Oh, the horror. Generations of married couples have been given things they don't need or would never, ever use. They said thank you -- and if possible discretely exchanged them -- and moved on.

Miss Manners would not be amused period. Miss Manners is firmly of the opinion that the gift registry is appropriately maintained only as a reference if the gift-giver asks. Anything beyond that constitutes begging, not gracious acceptance of the generosity and thoughtfulness of others, and puts the generosity in the hands of the recipient, not the giver.
