Worst Christmas presents
I know it is the thought that counts. However, we all know we have gotten those gifts that we immediately put away after Christmas. For instance, my sister keeps sending me rubber duckies for Christmas.
What is your worst Christmas present ever?

I hardly ever wear make-up. The only make-up I wear is mascara. My aunt bought me an entire caboodle thing filled with eyeshadows and lipsticks. Yeah, I ended up giving it to my sister, who then gave it to a friend who then threw it away.

I had relatives that used to do that to me as well. Bunch of wankers.

I've definitely answered this question here before, but it begs to be restated:
A brick. Accompanied by a pack of AA batteries, as if the brick was battery-powered.

Wow. Maybe they thought you were going to build something.

My brother got me and my then-boyfriend his and hers nose hair trimmers three years ago. That was awkward.

I can't actually remember too many bad Christmas presents. Maybe the plain, white socks my grandmother gave me one year?

Agreed. My grandmother gave me two pairs of socks and two pairs of underwear one year for Christmas. I was 10.. and not impressed.

Any of those basket things that have smelly body washes and stuff. I never use them and give them away. I don't want to smell like a yankee candle store.

Well, it's sort of a best/worst Christmas present. I guess I have to start by saying I hate socks, I loathe shoes, I despise slippers. Any entrapment of my feet and I'm not a happy camper. So I was casually dating this guy. I lived in Fargo, he lived in Nowhere, Alaska. Picture a little village that takes three days to get to and there are no vehicles other than snowmobiles. For Christmas he gave me a pair of slippers. Which really, really, really sucks because why in the hell would I want to subject my feet to that?!?? And he KNEW this about me. Freedom for Feet would be my platform if I ran for office. So I've worn them twice. They just sit and take up room in my closet. But I can't get rid of them, because they are genuine spotted seal slippers that only a native Alaskan is allowed to hunt. Not only that, but the native hunter was the one who tanned the hide, made the slippers, and did the beadwork. You just can't throw art away. Even if it is a shitty Christmas gift. I guess it's a win even if it wasn't the most thoughtful gift.

One time I got this ceramic model of a generic Native American's face. I... yeah. No.

I once got a bookmark from my aunt that was a little blob of coloured modelling clay on a long piece of elastic. It was meant to be a "book worm". It looked like a little pile of bird shit... That year, she also gave me a make up kit that consisted of 1980s style blue eye shadow, tangerine coloured blush, and silver glittery lip gloss. I'm pretty sure only a street walker would have worn the three in combination.

My ex boyfriend gave me the same gift he gave me two years earlier: a chocolate fondue set. Yea it seems like a fun idea, but when will you ever really get all that equipment out to melt some chocolate. There's pans or even the microwave for that. I never used it. So getting that again and knowing he didn't even remember he already got it for me once was rather annoying. Also, I knew his ex and remember her telling me she got that as a present when they were dating.
Guess it was his default gift for girlfriends!
