Worse Christmas Gift - The Orange Mane

elsid13 · 12-16-2006, 08:03 PM

OK

I'm bored what the worse Christmas, Hanuka, etc present you ever got or gave.

theAPAOps5 · 12-16-2006, 08:21 PM

My aunt when I was 16 gave me this 2 foot statue of an Indian. I never had expressed an interest in Native American trinkets so I was pretty confused.

elsid13 · 12-16-2006, 08:26 PM

Yeah my aunt gave me some African Stone game. It was a OH gift

I look at it differently , if some one takes 5 minutes to think about getting me a gift , I am thankfull , no matter the gift ............. but then I could go without gifts , seein your kids excited and happy is what it is about for me

Last year I told the wife one of her presents was a 50% discount to have sex with me.

When my ex gave me some Tupperware.

No wonder he's my ex.

old spice. every ****ing year i get old spice from someone, what am I 50 years old? no thought required, just buy old spice.

I got car ramps from my wife our 1st Christmas together. That would've been like me giving her an iron. I just smiled and said I loved it!

smalltowngrll · 12-22-2006, 12:53 PM

I guess the question begs to ask.... Are "useful" gifts bad gifts?

But giving an iron to someone that doesn't iron would be a bad gift, though.

Hotrod · 12-22-2006, 12:59 PM

I actually got an apple peeler from a aunt once. I was around 15 at the time

WTF

The worst thing I ever gave.......this is some funny ****

The wife likes to sleep in these night gown looking things. (Im sure they have a real name) Nothing special just long softish t-shirts but not really t-shirts. Anyway on Valentines day I bought her one. Thinking I had done a good thing I was so proud of myself. She opened the box and said thank you....Its great....I love these....I love you etc....

Years later she finally burst my bubble during a normal converstaion and told me I had bought her a nice slip. Only then did I realize how strange I must have looked standing in the ladys dept holding up a slip in the mirror.

My mother in law keeps giving me the same bottles of hot sauce every year and one year she gave me a roll of duct tape.

BMF Bronco · 12-22-2006, 01:55 PM

The most retarded gift I have ever recieved was a friggin singing fish from my ex-mother-in-law! I used it to sight in my rifle later that year.

The most retarded thing I have given was a "butt-face" towel, one half was brown and said butt and the other half was white and said face.

smalltowngrll · 12-22-2006, 02:34 PM

Worst gift for my birthday I got the "best husband ever". It was a talking doll that told me everything I wanted to hear (or so they think). Christmas was some other sort of "best man ever" doll. No, not the freaky kind, just something stupid that I can't even remember now. That was the year my dad decided to tell me I had a better chance of being on a plane that gets hijacked than ever getting married!

I love you too, Dad!

Billy Clyde Puckett · 12-22-2006, 03:01 PM

Wife and I always have a tough time buying for each other as we just enjoy getting things for the kids, but feel obligated. Last year she bought "me" three CDs of music she likes but I absolutely hate. This year I told her just to get me a gift card from Chipolte.

-Slap- · 12-22-2006, 04:21 PM

One year my old man gave me a carton of Marlboros. Yeah, he said, "Smoke up, Johnny!"

Wait, that was actually Judd Nelson in the Breakfast Club, before his career fell down a bottomless chasm.

I have given cigarettes during an employee gift exchange, though. Cheap-ass $10 limit, its better to stay practical. Two packs of Marlboros and a lighter, wrapped in a festive little bow.

smalltowngrll · 12-22-2006, 04:25 PM

I just saw a chia pet commercial on TV at lunch and wondered why noone had listed that on here yet! hahaha

-Slap- · 12-22-2006, 04:28 PM

They have really expanded their product line.

Hotrod · 12-22-2006, 04:31 PM

I'd trade my potato peeler for a ChiaCutler

BRNCOS1 · 12-22-2006, 07:11 PM

Miniature working crane game from my brother. I always win stuff for my kids when were at the store. So he must have thought that meant I wanted to load this thing up with candy I bought and "play" with this thing.

I remember thinking I can't believe he freakin bought me this.

elsid13 · 12-22-2006, 07:17 PM

Side note: I SUCK AT WRAPPING PRESENTS. it a disaster the size of Katrina.

This is one of the times I wish I had a live in girlfriend
