I dunno, I think some presents are so thoughtless you might as well say ‘don’t care who you arw as a person and not going to try’ when they are from someone whose supposed to be closr, anyway.
I’ve been given some rubbish presents over the years but yknow, it’s still nice
I despise opening presents, I think it makes me more anxious than anything else. Stop looking at me!
my mum got me a glue gun once
thought it was a lead up to another present, like idk some craft thing i had to build myself. nope. she just thought i could use a glue gun.
I once got some nice boat cufflinks as a leaving gift, the only problem was I already had the exact same cufflinks and I was wearing them at the time.
I got a bit embarrassed and sort of tried to keep my arms down but I was the only one who seemed to notice.
Did…did my dad fancy my girlfriend?
Is this referring to his wife or your gf?
f-ing hell. a present of maximum inappropriateness in it’s own right made somehow even more inappropriate in context
Genuinely couldn’t tell you. Was too busy pretending to like it whilst he wiped tears of laughter from his face because he thought it was such a funny t shirt. We’re not that close.
i think it’s referring to both his gf and his mum
How many times have you worn it?
that’s pretty incredible. doubt i could even bring myself to wear that to do some painting.
Every day still.
my mum once bought me a wallet with a picture of a guitar on it, cos I play the guitar. Was like a generic, vaguely, but not quite telecaster
Looked like something you would buy a 10 year old. I was 38 or something.
Couldn’t even bring myself to use it on a visit to them, sat in a drawer for a few years before getting chucked
A censored Limp Bizkit album.
blank cd_r then
A censored Limp Bizkit album is actually a very thoughtful present, limiting the presence of Fred Durst as it would.
My mate got that thinking it was some special edition or something
Think the first thread I created in DiS was about terrible gifts and I mentioned this literal white elephant, a wedding gift from my uncle
Until just a couple of years ago my mum would buy me massive big make up boxes from Avon like this
I wear mascara and eyeliner daily and a little eye shadow on special occasions only and I tend to only buy quality, expensive products. So I have about four of these boxes of cheap tat that I will never, ever use.
