So what were the worst Christmas presents you ever got?
For my 16th Christmas, I got a Fievel stocking (that's that annoying mouse from An American Tail, who I hated, and my parents knew that), a nutcracker wall hanging and a clock radio. Thats it. I threw the stocking into the wood stove. My mom still has the nutcracker & hangs it up every year, and I still have the clock radio.
Granted- we were poor, there were 7 of us. I don't want to sound ungrateful, but why would someone go out of their way to get me a gift I hated?
And when my mom said "It's the thought that counts.", I responded with "Well it looks like you weren't thinking that hard when you bought this!" (refering to the Fievel stocking).
Anyone else have any crappy Christmas/Hannukah stories?

One year, my uncle bought me a remote control whoopee cushion. Now he usually gives me about £30 cash and he probably got that from the gadget shop for like £5 so i was not pleased.

I literally got a box on rocks I feel you, dude. I've gotten a box of rocks before as a present, too. They were like a bunch of shiny little rocks, that looked to have been bought at a museum or something. They were pretty looking rocks, but come on man.

I got a calculator/digital watch with a flame armband on it from my aunt once...and I was ing 18. I also got a horrible shirt like this once: Do you know how hard it is to pretend to be grateful for crap like that? They always ask me why I never wear the watch or the shirt. WHY DO YOU THINK?!?!

I would say Money. I have TONS of money in my bank, I not need get money for present to spend it out. Because if I like something I would buy it by myself, but money also bored, as well.

I've never had gotten bad X-mas presents, but my dad died on X-mas day back in 2001. I consider that the worst present I ever got.
