Post your crappy gifts here

[motzie]

I can't pip but my IL's got me a pair of Christmas tree hand towels. They get me the most random things. Last year I got an Ov Glove, which I totally wtf'd, but that thing is pretty useful.

Where is Sara?

My period.

I got an ugly purse. brown and animal print from my mom. I feel terrible about it. She got it over the summer so I can't return it.

I need to learn to give her specifics but I feel bad asking for specifics because I don't want her to spend her money on us but she does anyway, on things I'll never use or are not my style.

I'll never learn.

[WOT?*]

My daughter nagging at the girls and getting ticked at me for overriding the discipline since thety are in my custody. Always a fun time.

I know a certain coworker who would probably love it.

Debbie downer alert!

I can't complain.

I'm at MIL's with her best friend and neighbor who was diagnosed with breast cancer about 6 months ago. Her husband had been taking all kinds of drugs and acting crazy. He went to the hospital yesterday. We all thought he was just a junky (well he was) however, he was acting all crazy because he has a brain tumor

[Marle]

I will have to post a
Picture of my boots. I can't decide if they are awesome or terrible.

Lol, h loves his screaming slingshot monkey. It freaks the cat out, too.

[nsl]

Even my H, a bacon fanatic, gagged at the idea of bacon toothpaste.

I got a really hideous multicolored beaded wristlet from my aunt. It's probably my own fault since she asked for suggestions and I never got back to her, but the purse is REALLY ugly.

My SIL gave me a pregnancy test. I have no kids and a lot of people we know are having babies lately, so her note said I might need it since pregnancy seems to be "going around." She got me a real gift, too, but it was just an odd moment.

I deem this the worst. WTF?

Mystery solved!

"Make me buy gifts for your family, and you'll regret it!".

[drrn04]

My MIL got me GIANT high-rise briefs from VS. She does this every.single.year. She gives me the biggest underwear they make, in a size bigger than what I wear. It is almost like she's trying to say "your ass is huge, and you shouldn't be having sex with my son. So wear these."

My mother got me a really crappy* pot for the stove. I'd asked for one that is the same line as my other cookware (calphalon tri-ply stainless). I knew it was $$, so I specifically asked for that, and only one other thing. Well, she got me the Farberware version from Kohl's because she didn't want to spend that much on a pot. I know she'd rather have a lot of stuff for me to open so it "felt equal," instead of just getting me what I asked for. She neurotically tracks how much she spends on each person, so I know it wasn't about the total amount spent. I'm feeling like a materialistic bitch. :\

*Not dissing anyone who has Farberware. I really don't care what other people use, but I don't want to use it in my kitchen (grew up with it, like my new stuff better, blah blah blah).

[pbear]

bronchitis!

All of my gifts were good, but everyone asked me what I wanted or took me shopping

[RBL]

I got It's a Wonderful Life, I asked for A Christmas Story.

Think Goodwill will accept this?

If you take that to Goodwill you are going straight to hell on the Brimstone Express. LOL

JK They would take it and sell it to some sucker I am sure.

[Doc_Lobster]

Ha! Santa with Jesus, for the win!

[aprilludgate]

DH and I saw the praying Santa, or at least something similar in Hallmark a few weeks ago. We were both confused.

[Cricket0619]

A hat that looks like one that Blossom would have worn.

Santa looks like he's trying to decide how to off the kid!

Hmm, tough call, but I think this wins over the HPT.

[bazealina]

I think that looks like santa praying over a dead baby..not sure how you are supposed to know it is baby Jesus...that is scary!
I had a great christmas.

My mom got me a salad spinner so that I can "make big salads for dinner" and a healthy eating cookbook.

Okay, Mom, I got the fucking hint last month when you "suggested" I come join your gym with you to "firm up". Thanks.

This sucks. Un-requested "self improvement" items have been banned from Christmas at my parents house. It's nice.

[Deleted]

my grandmother got me the most hideous bracelet.

my SIL got us a framed cartoon portrait of poop.

[Deleted]

my actual presents were great. the absence of presents from my ILs, without warning, sucked because it hurt my husband's feelings.
