What was the worse gift you ever received?

Mine was when I was around 12. My Grandmother gave me underwear that she got from work. She worked at a second hand store. True story.

    A faded red sweat shirt with "Acme Rubber" advertised on it and too small. From my cheap (but loaded) brother and his wife. Several years before they gave me a pink powder puff on a plastic handle that must have cost 79 cents from the Dollar Store, powder not included. They are true believers it is the thought that counts. However, those gifts had no thought and if they ever present me with another one of their gifts I will be sure to tell them so. I've always been too polite to say anything...but they are ridiculous they way they talk about their money, et al.

    Well I am sure everyone knows the Christmas Story (TVSHOW). I got the pink bunny out fit from my grandma when I was 7. And my mom and dad took a picture of me in it. And now my wife has it and shows everyone. SO the trama lives on. LOL.

  • A yard of bubble gum. Serious. I got major lockjaw. I was around 8 but I still got the thing I wanted. It was a side gift but still a very weird thing to give.

    Mine was an old grandmas purse that my grandma lol got me for Christmas one year. When I was very young. I'm sure I had worse. But right at the moment I can't think of anything.

    When I was a kid, it was clothes...didn't matter if I needed them, liked them or even wanted them...they might work for girls, but not boys. As an adult, it's probably getting concert tickets for a group that I'm not a big fan of...but my wife is...don't know if I'd call that the worse or just very sneaky.

    I was 4 and my Gramma,gave me a stuffed animal dog for my Birthday,that looked so scary to me that I screamed,and then started crying,and begged my Mom to just let her keep it. To this day,when I go to her house,it still scares me.
