This is inspired by lee.s moan bout present .
Firstly I try not to open present in front of giver in case its **** as I cant pretend its best present ever.

So whats ye worst present ever.
Mines prob a pair of gloves a aunty gave me that didnt fit and I had to stand in front of jer trying to squeeze me hands in to em.prob why I try not to open prezzies in front of people now.

The worst best present I gave was to folk last year. I ordered a canvas of me .wife and parents from wedding.it was on offer so I ordered quickly. Anyway after a hour I thought that seems big so got tape out and it ws about a meter square.anyway still gave em it and its now a running joke .worst is they put it on wall in front of a mirror so its like two huge pictures
 
First Christmas with my wife (girlfriend then) I was telling her how **** a present socks were - she went all quiet and I find later that she's bought me socks !!
 
Wife never gets me what I ask for.i asked for a belt for me birthday .she got me one that wastwo small .took Iit back got me a hoodie and t shirt..........I needed a ****ing belt
 
A knit scarf from my sister....****ing ugly and I do not wear scarfs. I smiled...said thanks. Never seen it again as I tossed it in a closet and forgot it.

You suit a knit scarf. Mother in law bout me thi thing othr year .like a scarf thing but you put it over ye head rather then wrap it round . Thought it was a ****ing tank top. Every one was pissing there sens when I was trying to get it over shoulders
 
Mine was the constant Santa themed undies/socks my ex would buy me every year. I mean, apart from Xmas day and Boxing Day, when am I ever going to wear them.

The disappointment was compounded by the amount of thought and effort I would put into choosing her gift every year. Oh man.

Oh and an r2d2 phone. Most annoying thing ever.

Is it that bad :?: have been sooooo tempted to get one but keep talking myself out of it :lol:
 
My Aunt bought me a cardigan, when I was Eleven. Brown with huge buttons. I tried not to cry, but I did. Then Mum made me wear the damn thing all Boxing day.

Wasn't all bad though - that year I got the TCR Racing set, probably my favourite ever present.

She made it herself. Looked like Harry Potters on crack. Fugly ****ing thing.
 
I work for the electricity board in the South East. I'm now an engineer but for the first 9 years of my career I was an overhead linesman, working on low and high voltage electricity lines on wooden poles.

About five years ago, I was unwrapping my presents and my dear old mum had brought me this game where four of you hold these handles and push a button in the middle of the base, then after some dodgy music one of you gets an electric shock. Why the **** she thinks I want to sit at home and shock myself was beyond me. I actually left that present at home that year.
 
I have an aunt and uncle that every single year they use to just give us a business diary, and I mean they were giving us these when we were four/five years old all the way through to when we were 18. My uncle owned a building firm so would imagine he'd get a job lot from work and just dish them out.
What use to piss me off was my gran use to buy really thoughtful gifts and my cousins who were the children of this particular aunt and uncle use to slag off my grans presents off although they dished out diaries, little twats.

thats the only present i did like only thing is i got it twice :lol: so one upstairs and one down stairs i love them but then again we use our mobiles all the time so it only rings now and then
probably would get annoying if it rang every 5 mins
 
i got one of those whistling keyrings.. they were all the rage years ago.. mid to late 80s. sadly as myself and my brother were taking it apart and seeing how it worked, we forgot to replace it.. it probably got thrown out in the wrapping paper / xmas carnage and it must have been funny to watch two lads running round the house whistling to try find it.

will be in the same place my weequay is..

Ha just brought back a memory .forgot all about them and now I want one lol
 
A few years ago my xxxxxx (family member) got me a really naff Star Wars t-shirt with a massive shitty cartoon angry birds style Vader on the front. It's the sort of thing I would never wear in a million years, ****ing horrible! Sort of T you'd give a 3 year old. A couple of weeks later we saw it in Sports Direct for £2.99. I know it's not about £ but ****ing cheapskate :|
 
:lol:

I've had good and bad. I dont mind the underwear as it's always something I'd need anyway, t-shirts have been good and bad some worn others put in the back of the cupboard, loving the PJ bottoms they've been a big hit as have the Darth Vader slippers 8)

I've received a few books again good and bad, really loved the Star Wars Art : Illustration book but on the flip side haven't bothered to pick up Star Wars : The Ultimate Action Figure Collection. The diary was a complete miss, never in my life have I used a diary and it remains in it's wrapper in a box in the loft (in the hope that it will be worth hundreds of pounds in years to come :lol: )

I'm sure there are more just cant think of them right now.

As ever it's the thought that counts and I dont mind the easy way out some people take as I know without the Star Wars link I am very difficult person to buy for :D

Roll on xmas and whatever SW goodies it may bring :mrgreen:
