Hey Pandas, What Was The Worst Christmas Gift You’ve Ever Gotten? (Closed)

Baby clothes 1 month after a miscarriage. And yes, they knew all about it. And it wasn’t the first time. My fave was the advice to follow so I didn’t do it again. Um no. I can promise it wasn’t something I intended to happen, assholes.

Crayons and really simple children’s colouring books with pictures of trans and teddies, im 23 but my relatives think because i have autism im not an adult ☹️ also lots of hideous brightly coloured pom pom sparkly tinsel christmas sweaters when ive been a goth and worn nothing but black for at least 8 years, im too polite to say anything though and always pretend i like my present 😩

Clothes that were extremely not my style and way too small for me. It really hurted me how my grandma kept pretending that I was super skinny (I was in the middle of a healthy BMI but considered fat by her).

Worst Christmas gift I ever received was the one time my brother thought it'd be funny to throw an ice block at my head and send me to the hospital on Christmas Eve.

One Christmas long ago, I was a happy girl with a boyfriend I adored. He told me he wanted to marry me but nothing was official yet. He came over unexpectedly as we were just hanging with our own families that year. I could tell he was super nervous but had no idea why. Well, since I was saving myself for marriage and unbeknownst to me, he was seeing a former girlfriend for sex. My present that year was she was pregnant, she was keeping the baby and she wanted them to get married. They did and got divorced. Ho! Ho! Ho!

A lame self-help book. (Sorry brother, you've gifted many great presents before and after that, but it is what it is)

A dirt-filled burlap head. If watered, it would spout cress. It was from an adult, not a child.

My parents gave me a book and a cd on how to speak with an American accent because they didn't like the fact that I sounded British even though I would spend my summers in the UK throughout elementary school. Plus I'm dyslexic and partially deaf...

A coffee mug. The mug outfitted with a golden ring-shaped handle, accented by a large, clear crystal. You held the cup by putting your ring finger through the ring. It was made to look like you had a big engagement ring on. The boyfriend who gifted it to me thought it was hilarious...me not so much.

as written couple of days earlier in other post: my godparents gave my parents 2 cups for coffee, and for me and my sister - pack of chewing gums each. And they opened 1 pack of gums on their way to our place, and since my sister is younger, she got the opened pack hahahaha

Rum from my mother. Sounds ok, right? Except she was an alcoholic and it was really for her.

I received a cemetery plot for Christmas one year. I was 12.

Cheap box with like 3 pieces of candy (we agreed to exchange not only symbolic gifts). They got big bag of gifts from me :/

When I was a child, I made the mistake of telling my grandmother I liked owls, and that is what I got for Christmas from then on-things with owls on them. You name it, there was some version of it somewhere with owls on it. The weirdest, when I was about 11, was a roll of paper towels.

My mother bought my sister down winter coats for each of her family. My family, a cheap $1 barbie that broke on contact, a used electric knife with moldy dried meat still on it, and for my son, a t-shirt my mother found in the road with asphalt in it in a walmart bag. She didn't wrap a single gift. The knife at least had a box. Her comment about the t-shirt, "Here, I found this in the road and you're so good at getting stains out!". I'm the young child, obviously not the favorite! 🙄

When I was a teenager in the 1970s my boyfriend's mom got me a giant plastic purse with a pirate ship on it.

I got a makeup kit from my grandmother. I was six, and not amused.

My friend got a boxed enema. It was stolen three times...

Every damn X-mas gift I received as a child from family. Stupid dolls, make believe kitchen crap or girly clothes. Never books or art supplies. I hated all of it, and I could never hide my disdain like a little lady.

A really expensive electric coin sorter without coins. 15 year old me was buzzing.
