Many years ago, I had announced my plans to join the Army - which I did. Xmas was a couple of months before I shipped off and in my Christmas stocking - which was hung with care - my step-brothers had placed a bunch of plastic toy soldiers with their arms and legs blasted off (detailed with red paint). ha ha ha.

So what's yours? :p
 
One, I hate clown dolls (long before Poltergeist, though that made it worse LOL), and I never was into dolls much. I prefered model cars and books and such... anyway...

Some friends had a brilliant idea to break me from my clown doll phobia, and painted up and dressed their sister's previous year's chatty cathy (pull a string and it talks) just like a clown. They did a really good job with it, (their mom probably helped them with it) and my parents thought it was the cutest thing since cuddly puppies.

Only thing was, there was something wrong with the talking mechanism, as the voice was sort of slurred and gravelly, and worse than that - it would open its eyes and start talking in the middle of the night without pulling the damn string....

Did I mention that I hate clown dolls????
 
All presents from one of my Nan's between the age's of 5 -14, she had a huge hairy mole on top of her lip that absolutely terrified me (It had it's own place at the Xmas dinner table), for my sister and I had to partake in the family ritual of kissing her to receive our presents, I tried many years in vain to get my sister to kiss her twice and get my present for me lol.
 
lol, Mousey's story will give me nightmares! :eek2:

Personally I appreciate any gift no matter how stupid it is. ;)

But I think the worst gift that was in my family is when my grandma was still alive, she was in a nursing home but still sharp - my aunt gave her for Christmas this ugly sweatsuit outfit that she bought from the thrift store. Which wouldn't have been so bad if it hadn't been worn out and if she'd bothered to wash it because it had this big ucky food stain on the front! My mom was PISSED, it was years ago but she still grinds her teeth when she thinks about it.
 
LOL Bryan that sounds like something my family would do! I have to think my worst was back when my former sister & law thought it was funny to put in the grab bag gift exchange a sex toy she never opened to hmm enjoy..

I was mortified of course that I had to choose that gift marked for any lady....:eek2:
 
My husband thought I would really be into fishing,(I don't even like fish) I got a pair of those green boots that look like overalls, and a tackel box. I sold the boots and use the tackel box for my make up lol.

That is by far the worst gift I have ever gotten.

I have an exgirlfriend that used to do that... in the middle of the day too. Drove me nuts.

my ex, honest to God, gave me an I.O.U

That's better than a U.O.Me.

When I was young my grandmother knit me some socks from her left over wool. I don't know what it was left over from because one pair was the brightest red and the other bright green.

They were so bright that if I looked down while I was walking I became disoriented. I'm wondering now if there was a way I could have made them make lightsaber noises when I walked... Now that would have been cool.
 
Every year my mum sends my socks and those old man underpants which I never wear. there is a good 15 pairs in my draw now and I bet I know what she has gotten me this year :rolleyes:

Mine are young man underwear until I put them on.

I don't know... Maybe it's because the only other thing I'm wearing is a cardigan and socks.
