My great aunt bought my Mum a huge t-shirt which had "dog" in big letters printed across it - We wondered if she was trying to tell us something :eyebrow:

It is however a very comfy pj top :wink:

whats soap on a stick:lmao:?

Its a bar of nicely colored soap mine was actually a christmas tree right on a stick (like a popsicle... but less fun)...I guess so you can reach your back? I don't know but it was wierd....:)
 
my grandma was the worst christmas gifter
one year when I was about 10 she got me a bacon wave.. a little plastic thing that you use to cook bacon in the microwave. That same year she got my brother a snow shovel.

the year before she'd got me a diet cookbook and told me maybe it'd help me out

My dad has bought me the Beatles' Abby Road cd for three different christmases. One year he spelled my name wrong on all my gifts. Another year he gave me a cooler and an old t-shirt of his (he was really poor that year).

I like getting socks, if they're interesting socks.

Ah such fond memories from office Christmas parties...

Perhaps the 'best' gift I ever received was a knitted penis warmer. It was very pink and pretty small.

~true story~

How about a wicker laundry basket filled with a chunk of garland, a string of lights, and a few round plastic ornaments stuffed on top?

We called it "The Basket of Love" :wink:
It was supposed to be our $50 exchange gift.

Sad, though, it never quite made it from the car to the garage.
Mr GG had an 'accident' and it landed straight in the trash can at the end of the driveway.
:uhoh:

Hmm, that is similar to my family's notorious hat box secret Santa exchange gift at my grandma's Christmas party. My aunt had given her friend some money to come up with something "creative" for a secret Santa game my family plays every year. So she took a hat box, kinda sorta painted it (I think) and glued a couple twigs to it. Everyone thought it was a peace of garbage (literally), until we were down to the last gift. It kept turning up at that exchange every year until another of my aunt's "won" it and then promptly burned it.

I didn't know there was such a thing :wink: , if I could remember what I learned about knitting I could have given that to all the male members :D in my family

something tells me they don't carry the pattern for that at the local So Fro...

A few years ago, when I was in college, my parents got me a medieval sword for Christmas. Hello, random?

I was 21 years old, I wasn't into medieval things, I lived in a dorm where weapons aren't allowed, so what the heck am I going to do with a huge sword??!!

Aha.....did someone mention a sword..........{does it possess any magical qualities?}....this is interesting...........and what, may I ask has become of this so-called "sword'?
