King39Hockey Posted December 28, 2009 Posted December 28, 2009 Since everyone is talking about what they got for Christmas, I was wondering what everyone's worst gift they've ever recieved is? This can be birthdays, Christmas, you name it!
testtrack321 Posted December 28, 2009 Posted December 28, 2009 Rachel Ray cookbook. I. Hate. Rachel. Ray.
monsterfan99 Posted December 28, 2009 Posted December 28, 2009 In 2006 my fiancee got me a filing box. I had said I wanted one, as in get one I had at home (I was in college.) Thus it was the first time I was ever stunned with a gift in a bad way.
nagro5 Posted December 28, 2009 Posted December 28, 2009 I got gummy worms and a SoBe from my grandma one time. I know it's the thought that counts, but I don't think it counts when the thought is in the gas station on the way to a Christmas party...
netdvn Posted December 28, 2009 Posted December 28, 2009 Aside from getting nothing on a number of occasions, which doesn't really bother me, one Christmas, my parents opted to give me study material that I had to read over for a placement test that I had to take for some classes at school.
cycamps Posted December 29, 2009 Posted December 29, 2009 My grandma gave me a cosmetic bag once. I was sort of like "gee, thanks. (what the hell am I going to use this for)". I once got a razor when I was 10 too... again from my grandma.
Homer Posted December 30, 2009 Posted December 30, 2009 The worst gift I got were from some distant relatives I don't see too often. For some reason, they still think I'm like 9 years old, so they get me toys and kiddish stuff. The worst was two Christmases ago when they got me some "Mini DVD Jr." player or something. Basically, think of PSP UMD's with an even shorter lived proprietary format. It came with 2 kids movies... I think it was Shark Tale and some old Looney Toons compilation. The only useful part of the gift was the rechargeable AA batteries (which comes in handy for the Wii remotes). Other than that, the gifts from them (Hot Wheels, stuff from the clearance bin at Ross, etc.) always end up in the Goodwill bin the next day. I seem like such an ungrateful bastard.
FitchCoaster Posted December 30, 2009 Posted December 30, 2009 Disposable face masks, as in these. You know, those masks people wear to protect themselves from diseases and whatnot? So. Random.
jjune4991 Posted December 30, 2009 Posted December 30, 2009 My grandma gets me Southpole shirts. And I just don't wear that brand. This year she got me one that had glitter on it
BaMiTsPaT Posted December 30, 2009 Posted December 30, 2009 Every year my mom gets me a bag of coal but made out of bubble gum which is like haha funny mom...but it doesn't even taste good
mcjaco Posted December 30, 2009 Posted December 30, 2009 I just got a tin of broken up gingerbread cookies, 90% of the tine is literally just crumbs. The seal on the tin was already broken too. I'm not sure what to make of it.
Jojo19799 Posted December 30, 2009 Posted December 30, 2009 I just got a tin of broken up gingerbread cookies, 90% of the tine is literally just crumbs. The seal on the tin was already broken too. I'm not sure what to make of it. Sounds like someone re-gifted the cookies, after they ate all the cookies that were still in shape. Or, the tin dropped which caused everything to break? I don't know. I really try to give people the benefit of the doubt when it comes to things like this. But it is an odd gift. One year, my grandmother (who I really don't hear from at all anymore nor do I care too) sent a Christmas card to my brother and I (a separate one for each of us). Well the envelopes were addressed to us, but inside she put the wrong cards, with a check for $50 made out to our cousins (who we never ever met). Lets just say that my brother and I received a much smaller amount each Christmas.
JEAPUgrad Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 Gonorrhea...it's the gift that keeps on giving....
Mastersax68 Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 ^Ummmm...not sure what to make of that, but anyway, this year from my aunt, my family got a crab-themed gift box, complete with crab shaped soap, and crab flavored crackers.
Thelegendarymatthew Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 This was a gift to me, and my three siblings. Bob it. After 3 days of hearing them play that game, I chucked it in the pool.

Huge_Wonderland_Fan Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 I'm evil. For my cousin's Christmas presents I went to Dollarama and bought 2 boxes and tons of random stuff. One of them got a pregnancy test, sardines, a micro fibre hair wrap, a container of powdered ice tea, plastic grapes, mens shaving cream and a few other things I can't remember right now. The other one got a bow of plastic muppet cutlery, a sesame street drink container, pickled garlic, "Ultra Spill Grabbing" wipes and a few more things I can't remember.
themeparkologist Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 My grandma gets me Southpole shirts. And I just don't wear that brand. This year she got me one that had glitter on it Is it possible your grandma and mine are the same person? She got me a glitter covered Southpole shirt.
PoisonedPirate Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 One Christmas my sister and I both got Sky Dancers (remember them?). Anyway I got a pony fairy and she got a swan but she got upset and wanted the pony. So my Dad, in his wisdom, told us he had wrapped them up wrong. I was forced to give my sister the pony one!
holidayworld08 Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 A Totes (generic store brand) Car Visor Sunglasses/CD Holder. I don't Drive NOR do I own a car. WTF?
Angry_Gumball Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 Does receiving girly shower stuff count? It was the gift exchange game that we were all doing and me being new to it at the time, snagged the one that caught my eye immediately, then got jacked, then my once cool item was replaced with girly glittery shower soap. Another one (not Christmas or Birthday) was when my parents surprised me with a pet water snake. I guess they were informed that they're really tame and you can carry them in your pockets. I was completely excited about it until I went to pull him out of the box and he bit onto my cheek (right below the eye). In panic, I yanked the snake off and chucked it (sorry snake!). My cousin caught him and he was brought back to the pet store and replaced with a much less aggressive (and smaller) snake. Otherwise, can't really say that I received anything bad at all...maybe a nasty scratch from a cat (cat's gift to me) on the palm of my hand as she jumped off...super painful!
