Originally the worst present I had ever gotten was last year from a White Elephant gift exchange- DVDs of "Old Yeller" and "Mind Meld" (with Leonard Nimoy and William Shatner).


Today's present takes the cake. I just received a really ugly dreamcather with eagles all over it. Now, I could understand -to some extent- if it was a regift. However, my co-teacher got the exact same gift, which means that this person actually went out and bought two of them.

I have no idea why it would occur to these people that I would possibly want it.


Looking on the bright side, I have a great gift for the White Elephant gift exchange tomorrow.

Thank goddess for gift exchanges.

I'm regifting for the first time. It's box CD set of Reno 9-11. I have no idea what Reno 9-11 is, but judging by the cover, it's a raunchy, "Married With Children" type of TV show about cops or something.

I'll trade you this treasured CD set for your eagle dreamcatcher? Least I know about eagles...

Reno 911 is HILARIOUS... check it out on the Comedy Central website.

That’s to damn funny. I just caught a show last night (I think it was called "The Office") where they did the same thing. They were trading stuff like oven mitts, stupid posters, tea-pots and shit like that. Laughed my ass off! This one guy actually admitted that he forgot all about it and put his ugly ass plaid jacket in a bag as a gift. :D

Yes, I'm a teacher. If you have any questions, feel free to PM me; however, it's difficult to mentor someone in a different state and online.

I agree with Dilly- Reno 911! is a really funny show. I'd trade you that for my ugly dreamcatcher any day.
 
Last year I got a flashlight with no batteries and a burned-out bulb.

Will trade for examples of Native American Kitsch.

I thought it was the thought that counted...

I honestly would have rather just had a card.

Cool Steel- I love that show- I love how he changed it from a Secret Santa thing to a Yankee Swap, just because he got a potholder.
 
Regift stuff.
Does somebody buy it or does it appear out of bark matter ?
 
When I was seven my great grand mother gave me a lamp.... WTF?? all she had to do was go to the toy store and for one lousy buck she could'a got me a bag of toy soliders... Bitch...


Then when I was 16 my grandmother gave me a par of spider man underroos.... I have NEVER forgiven that old hag for that either... I pee all over her toilet seat every time I go visit her, now....

And I'd rather get nothing than my grandparents' usual shit they get me, but at least it's something.

Just pretend it is a card and you can chuck it a week later.
 
When I was young, I woke up on Christmas morning full of promises to come. I had to wait and go feed the animals first. So I sludged out to the barn, fed the horse, fed the goat, went to feed the rabbit....and it was frozen solid. The wind had blown the insulation off overnight and the poor thing was a bunnycicle. I cried and cried. That was the worst Christmas present ever.

dang... that's sad :(

When I was a boy, we were so poor that if I didn't wake up with a hard-on... I had nothing to play with Christmas morning :(
 
This one time, my friends sent me out to get a Christmas tree. I was surrounded by sharp looking fake trees, aluminum, plastic, polycarbon...but there was this one little real tree, so forlorn that I just had to take it back and...

...oh wait...

Sorry, I honestly laughed out loud on this one...Bash me if you will, but it was funny... :D

Hey, it is funny. Makes me laugh now to think of it. I mean, come on? On Christmas morning? What a disaster.
 
When I was 5 or 6, I woke up on Christmas morning with the chicken pox. Then a couple years ago, I got the flu on Christmas Eve and had to be quarantined.

I could just picture it in my minds eye. How long before you realized that it was frozen? <still laughing> Reminds me of an old Monty Python skit with a parrot... :D
