Pretty straightforward, folks: What's the lamest gift you've ever received.
-
A nail grooming kit from my father.
The first thing I said was "Gee, what will I get next year, deoderant?"
I got two collectible die-cast WW2 planes the next year.
:)
-
My friends like to get me novelty presents. Previous years I got coloring book and children's bible activity sets. This year was (strange coincidence Curval) women's deodorant.
-
Not given to me, but most lame gift EVER was given to my younger brother by our dad.
My brother was 16 and had his first for car for awhile . We are all opening gifts on Christamas morning and everyone got some descent stuff........except Kenny.
Kenny received a hand written note from dad that read: "New interior for your car"
The "new interior for the car" never materialised and nobody ever talks about it. :lol .......well, once in awhile my other brothers and I bring it up so we can have a laugh and rib him about it.
That was the most lame gift I have even seen. :D
-
Nothing.... But why complain.... Why would you complain if you got a gift...lotsa kids never see gift one from anyone....

It's pry because no one liked you.
I got a hermit crab once, and it was the worst present ever. I hate crabs, even when served with steaming side of garlic butter. It got flushed soon after.
It just wasn't a Sizzlers Fat track with 2 cars, or an Evel Knievel stunt bike or the Scramble Van with a jump.
-
Sadly, this was recent...a year or two
I dont know why or how but my parents had bought me some nice LL Bean sweatshirts...and had my initials monogramed on all 5. She told me the operator suggested it. I was polite as I could be but i reminded her some time later (when asked why i never wore them) than I hadnt worn anything with my initials since i was in 1st Grade.

It's actually the same one sent over and over and over again, re-gifted and passed along to the next victim each year.
The last one actually produced has been traced back to 1958, I think.

My Grandpa actually liked fruitcake, never quite understood it, still don't
-
not sure, but i think that it is a generational fruitcake. family legend dates it back to the mid 1800's.
if you look closely at the top, you can see a wooden tooth stuck in the veneer.
it also doubles as a footrest.

lol nuke...missed your post there.
its TRUE!

Back when running shoes started to become popular I got a pair that were the same colors as a John Deere tractor (puke green and sunshine yellow).
About the only thing they were good for was streaking and playing in the creek. So, luckily for my neighborhood, I decided to ruin them by playing in the creek.
-
In the same year my(now ex) mother in law gave me a little brass knick knack curio thing of a duck, and her mother gave me a bottle of Channel #9. What a family of dingbats.
-
I once received a pair of socks for christmas with jack-o-lanterns embroidered in them. To top them off, each had a musical device sewn into them that played 'The Monster Mash'.
For christmas.
And even if I wanted them, the battery powered musical devices meant I could never wash them.

What you talkin bout Willis?
Man I love it every time I see someone get a fruitcake present when I know they don`t like them.
Give me your fruitcake far and wide.
Give me turkey with fruitcake on the side.
Give me fruitcake from December till July.
It lasts that long. Give it a try.
Give me your fruitcake and I won`t throw a fit.
Man when it comes to fruitcake, I love the chit.

Yeah but the Vietnamese kid will probably be smart enough to get a good job and support you someday to repay you. And he will live on rice and stagnant water. The Filipinos will just eat all your food and drink your beer. If you get a smart one, he'll either be designing viruses on your computer or gut you like a fish and collect the insurance.
