Here is a thread to talk about the worst Christmas gift you've ever received. It's the thought that counts? I don't think so. Last year my brother bought me season one of 12 oz Mouse .... On iTunes! Thanks bro, now I have to let crapple gently caress me in the rear end with DRM to watch the show. And I have a roku, not an Apple TV!!

Salt. Yes, Salt. Not even Morton's, but a generic container of salt. It came from my grandmother. She was losing it pretty heavily by that point. She somehow made the connection that I was studying chemistry and that salt was a chemical...

one of my aunts was an arts and craftsy type and she bought sweatpant/sweatshirt combos for all of the kids and painted glittery dog glamor shots on them. All of my cousins were forced to change into them I politely refused lol. I did get a good laugh out of my dad when my mom said "Well it's the thought that counts" and I replied "If only more thought had been put into it."

Because every 13 year old by wants a glitter dog matching sweatshirt/pants combo instead of something fun or cool, or hell even a sports team version.

Edit: When my grandpa started getting senile he'd give me all sorts of skymall/airport gift shop quality weird poo poo. Combination nail clipper/flashlight/am radio? That's perfect! It all invariably went into the garbage when I got home because putting batteries in them constituted a fire hazard at worst and a complete waste of a battery at worse.

The most useful gift he gave by that point was an alarm clock with a projector from the sharper image. It projected the time onto the ceiling, and was also too bright (I have blackout curtains I like poo poo dark). I taped over the projector part and used that as my primary alarm clock for years.

From my best friend of 3 years who I shared all my secrets with (we were 23-25 or so at the time), I received a desk set dictionary/thesaurus, a pair of ugly earrings, and a basket of scented bath stuff.

1. I bought the SAME SET through our work supply catalog FOR WORK... if I wanted a personal set I could have ordered one. SHE could have ordered it through work and gotten it free. WTF?

2. She knew the problems I had with my pierced ears and how they were unevenly aligned and I just gave up and let them close up. In addition, the type of closure would never, ever work with the misaligned holes I had even if they hadn't closed up. She knew this, she was with me when I was lusting over sapphire earrings and WHY I wouldn't buy them, because I couldn't get them in. WTF?

3. I get migraines from scents. I get migraines from scents. I GET MIGRAINES! FROM SCENTS!!!!

It was the most depressing and disappointing Xmas. I'd gotten her chocolates made with her favorite wine, and some other personalized bullshit.

I hate receiving presents because it's always so disappointing. Nothing horrifically hurtful like what she did there, but in general I get cheap, ugly things that have no bearing on my life or interests. I'm old enough to buy what I want, when I want it. I don't need "gifts."

I said come in!

A bunch of matchbox + hot wheels cars. Cool enough right? Well, the paint was chipped on most of them, and some of them had bent wheels, a few of the axels were actually bent so badly that the friction between the wheel arch and the wheel was such that the wheels wouldn't turn at all. Still, fixing them all up and putting them on ebay made for a good project and I made a little bit out money out of it, so there's that I suppose.
