shesaidboom Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 Most of us have received some truly awful gifts over the years. Not just things we didn't want or like, but things that made us wonder what the gift giver could have possibly been thinking when they picked out the gift. We already have a thread to post what you got for Christmas, and I've seen a few pretty bad gifts in there (the photo of the ex girlfriend with her husband comes to mind), but most of those gifts are happy ones. This thread is for the ones you probably wouldn't normally want to share. Birthdays and other holidays count too, they don't have to be Christmas gifts! Pictures will make this more fun, but if you don't have any feel free to share anyway. I'll start. We received this Jesus clock from one of my mom's students this year. The glass on it cut me twice when I took it out of the box! I'm still trying to figure out if the butterfly has any significance, or if it's just a random butterfly.

Meteornotes Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 That is amazing. It would only be better if it somehow involved a shark. Or Dio. dt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spaceace12 Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 Old Spice Aftershave.....why, I don't use aftershave. I rarely use a razor, I go all natural.....actually, I use electric razor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 Technically Robb received this but... Love ya JimmyBo, but this is the worst thing on Earth! It makes a horrible noise EVERY minute!!! It also requires SIX Batteries!!! I'll post a video when we get home! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meteornotes Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 ^Is that a clock, a toy, or some sort of combination? Looks annoying, but I still think the Jesus & The Butterfly clock (which is based on one of those stories that is constantly ignored by biblical scholars) is the winner so far. dt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terrancew_hod Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 This beat out the handkerchiefs I got every year from my grandma. (She assumed I wore suits to work every day. There's only so many pieces of fabric I can burn every year! I finally had to tell her so she could save her money.) I received the video tape for this a few year back. I have to wrap this up and send it to my best friend for his birthday. He managed to slip it back in my luggage last year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chmilo24 Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 I got it this year and it was a framed picture of my ex-girlfriend and her new husband. I guess the "Motion Lotion" I got a couple years back also. --Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anfronee Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 This Christmas I got a dustpan and broom from my parents. It wasn't even a gag gift. My mom seriously thought i would like it. Picture coming soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalepi_Konei Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 Well every year for some reason I get a glass chess set from someone! And it always turns out to be the EXACT same one every year. I've got about 5 in my closet, it's beginning to become a tradition. And I hate chess! Also this wasn't a bad gift, but it made me mad. The coolest looking Vans sandals ever I received this Christmas from a friend. They look AWESOME put them on.... 2 sizes too small. It made me so mad cuz' I need new sandals and these looked REALLY cool, and they were comfy too. Pshh, wheres a gift receipt when you need one.

CoasterCrazy88 Posted December 28, 2008 Share Posted December 28, 2008 Well, I would have to say that this lamb/cow bank or whatever the hell it is, is the worst gift I've received. I'm sure everyone believed that it was worth $20. NOT. I'd imagine it came from the local 99 cent store's dumpster. This is a gift from a unknown TPR member.

Kennyweird Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 I got a pair of lint rollers. I'm too lazy to post a picture. Besides, you should all know what lint rollers look like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bspellx5 Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 My aunt gave me a box of chocolates from 2005 this year. Not only have I made it clear to like, everyone that knows me that I don't like chocolate, the fact that they are from over 3 years ago just adds to the insult.
