I once returned a fishing rod to Walmart that I found out later wasn't even one of their products. And they gave me a nice gift card to use for a future
purchase.

I think the rule is to not buy clothes for anyone you do not live with.

Christmas-themed presents on your birthday in February because they're so much cheaper after Christmas! I have an in-law that actually does that to me! Holy fuck, that's horrible. I wonder if this in-law laughs about it later. Now you've gone and made all my fears seem trivial. I think I'm getting sheets. That's not so bad. |

I knew a guy with a dungeon but it was in Florida so it was on the first floor -- no basement.
Dungeons that aren't underground simply don't cut it. Still, I gave him what he asked for and then he asked for more. True. |

My grandma has always been notorious for giving away crap, (old decks of cards, novelty drink containers from fast food restaurants, half used bottles of
horrendous perfume, just to name a few), and my mom used to think it was strange. The frightening thing is my mom has started giving used gifts also. Last year
she gave me some Bath and Body works lotion that I had just given to her a few months prior because it was tinted and I hate that shit. Whatever. My MIL makes
up for it with laptops, plane tickets, and all sorts of luxuries. Oh, and my mom is also one of those people who give you a gift and then tell you they got it
for 80% off. And it's always random weird junk.

He was too little to understand "tact" so he looked at her and said "what is this?" They have also gotten assorted dollar store items and once a "Jenga" game that was obviously used and had been sitting in a closet for at least 3 years. The box was all stained and crushed and some of the little wooden blocks were even missing. I don't get it since I have given them things like silver engraved photo frames, DVD players (this was back when they were new on the market and $300). And we would get an ugly lamp in return. I really don't care, it is the thought that counts and all that, but it's just embarrassing when my husband gets pajama bottoms with hearts on them. |

My birthday was Wednesday and my 'best friend' and her boyfriend just happen to be staying with me. I went the entire day talking to this woman and she
never wished my happy birthday. Right after dinner, flowers and chocolate and a teddy bear arrived from my boyfriend... she watched me get them from the
delivery man, and then walked away. SHe left the house for about 30 minutes shortly after that and then came into my office and asked me "Your birthday is
tomorrow, isnt it?" After rolling my eyes I said "No, today." she sucked her teeth and said "Well then my breakfast plans are gonna be
late. I have this whole thing planned for us for breakfast for tomorrow!"
So on Thursday... we ate, for breakfast mind you... a chocolate cake (that I am convinced she ran out and bought after the flowers and candy go here) and she allowed me to bithc at her about how much I hate her and her boyfriend invading my last few days in my own space... I woulda rather had an omelette. |

Blow job. Depends on who gave it. I got a bible the XMas after I came out to my family. |

At a Santa Steal at a place I worked a few years ago I got a set of tiny little tea cups. Everyone else was having a blast, stealing cool gifts like booze and
DVD's and stuff etc but no one wanted my tiny tea cups. I just sat there with a little tea cup set in my lap. When I left I left in my desk drawer.
