I keep getting bath products. Granted, I know they're all the rage but I haven't had the time to take an actual bath in about 10 years. And the very thought of sitting around in dirty bathwater just doesn't do it for me. Shower items, however, are gratefully accepted! |
I refer everyone to the queen mother of shitty-gifts threads:

My dad's mom got me a Barbie doll once, would've been great if I hadn't been 16.
|
Wow, a lil ironic that I started this thread because my mom def topped the jewelry boxes. My parents let me open my gifts tonight since it's just us 3 and there's nothing Christmasy about tonight for us.
She got me Jenga, Dominos, and towels. Towels would be nice if I lived in my own place. Jenga and Dominos? WTF? But she made up for it with Varsity Blues, iPod RoadTrip, and a down comforter complete with 2 down pillows. I will be sleeping sound tonight! |
My family loves to play dominos! :) try it you might just enjoy the game played by the rules...

I got to open my presents tonight too. My aunt got me this big, cheap-looking "collectible doll". The box was already all falling apart, and she had the nerve to still give it to me. It looks like it's probably a re-gift. :mad: I haven't been into dolls since I was 9 or 10 and I'm not into collecting things...especially something this hideous. Now, it's just taking up room in my already cramped, tiny place....until I can find somebody to dump this thing on. Muahahaha!!!!!! :p

ok, this isn't my bad gift, but my friend got a deviled egg plate when she was a teenager from her PARENTS. she is in her 30s and still talks about what a horrible xmas that was.
i did get an ugly sweaterr from a boyfriend once. it was gross. |

So...I have to add my share;)
Now don't get me wrong, I love my Grandma. But sometimes I just want to be like "WTF were you thinking Granny?!" Since I was little, I've gotten PJs. Or PJ/lounge related articles of clothing. First it was nightgowns (that were monogrammed, naturally;)) Then we moved into sleep shirts, to pj sets, to robes......and now to the worst - A house coat. Now not only is it a house coat, it's a baby blue house coat that has that "quilted" look to it- ya know, like Vera Bradley bags? Now Granny, I'm sure you know I love Vera Bradley....as an accessory. :rolleyes: On top of that......my sister got the same thing. Not like a housecoat in a different color....the same exact thing. On top of all that, I had to sit there and tell her how wonderful it is....sheesh. The things a person will do to keep grammy happy, lol. Now if only I could find someone to pawn it off on....... |
The older I get the worse my gifts get. Let's see this year I got a case of Labatt Blue ( which I dont drink labatts cuz it gives me the shits) , a liter of grey goose l'orange ( even tho I drink bourbon and hate fruity liquor) oh the best was a shrimp platter and a calender with the birthdays of everybody in my family. The funny thing is the only thing i wanted for christmas was a new file cabinet and a cd/dvd storage tower, which I didnt get.

My dear great-aunt (RIP) always gave the worst gifts. She claimed, "I know exactly what pre-teens / teenagers want." She gave me oversized sweatshirts with ugly designs printed on them, and purple leggings. If I'd worn them to school, I'd have been a laughingstock. She was a very sweet woman, and I miss her, but she had no clue what I wanted. |
This year i got a skillet, from my mom, for my new appartment that i dont have yet...and the next gift my dad opened was yet another skillet and now he wants to know if he should go appartment hunting with me

My car was burglarized and vandalized the week before xmas. My top was slashed in three places and my ipod and dry cleaning bag and a new vera bradley were stolen.
One of my best friends turns around knowing my ipod was stolen and gives me an ipod case for xmas (the case only fits the 4th generation ipods) and doesn't give me a gift receipt. So now I have an expensive case for an ipod I don't have and no way to return it. To top it off she gave me a pair of cute flip flops that are about 3 sizes to large for me. Hello! |
One year my great aunt got me a candle from the 99 cent store as my entire Hannukah gift. Not only was it cheap, I swear it had to have been the tackiest candle in the entire store. It was a pink gel candle inside some glass thing with a fake rose at the bottom of it. Eww. If she really wanted to get me a gift from the 99 cent store, she should have just gotten me a rubber duck...
