ETA: that will be a tough one. I shoot out at my buddy's property and his mom was the one who gave it to me  .

Was a consultant. Parent consulting company gave me a $50 gift certificate to Lands End...for working 4 90+ hour weeks, over y2k. No bonus, just that. Never mind the usual 50+ hour weeks.
Fuck them. |

Over 20 years ago a GF gave me a suit for Christmas. I had no need for a suit really and was pissed about it. Said nothing and went home early on Christmas eve. Was given a game controller for Christmas, joystick for a computer for playing games. I didn't have a computer at the time nor did I play games. For a wedding present, (been divorced 20 years now) somebody gave us an electric knife. It's still in the back of my cupboard in the original box unopened. WTF am I gonna do with that?

Wedding gift: a massive, super-heavy, solid-brass table ornament of one hand putting a wedding band on another hand.
I sold it for scrap. I got $85 for it. |

Some time in high school I was given a rocking chair for Christmas. There was no room in my bedroom for a chair. It didn't fit with the furniture for any of the family rooms. The specialty shop where my mom got it didn't accept returns. So it sat in our attic until I moved into my first apartment about four years later.
Even worse, it broke within the first month of actual use. The seat wouldn't stay bolted to the frame and, while rocking, would slide forward enough to fall off the supports and drop the person and seat on the floor. |

For Christmas one year I received rusted iron wind chimes. From my mother, no less.
She thought they looked like 'art'. 
Nevermind that I live in a place I couldn't hang them, even if I wanted to. |

My sister had the idea of having everybody in the family give my wife and me a Christmas ornament at our first Christmas get-together after we got married and got our own place. We got some seriously hideous ornaments. One was a pair of gold-glitter-covered shoes. Who puts shoes on their Christmas tree?

I got a $10 Starbucks gift card at work right when they announced their "please leave your guns home" policy. I wanted to take it to the range & shoot it but the local range has a "please leave your cameras home" policy. I figure I can probably use it to open a lock or chop up some rails or something...

Good question, I am not sure what became of them. Maybe she kept them and found a man that liked them. She did move to Austin.

Nearest location would have had me driving from Arizona to Kentucky. Took it to one of those exchange machines, turns out the card had never been "activated"(or some such) and was worthless. |

Somehow my dad ended up in charge of my 17th birthday present and I got two road flares and a kite. There was a brief moment when I thought the road flares were sticks of dynamite but that high quickly faded as I read the side.

Nothing. I stopped getting holiday/ birthday sex years ago and usually get nothing unless I get it for myself. At least now my kids are old enough to make me cards from construction paper and crayons. I really do like getting those.

That would be a decorative plate that you put under the useful one for some unknown reason. No purpose other than decoration. More common for dinner plates, but I suppose you could have one for a serving platter. |

3 Xmas ago wife (now ex) gave me a miniature air hockey table that looked like it came from a gas station.
The next year I got an ugly ass shirt from some discount store that literally shrank to fit one of my daughters after one wash. IIRC, I spent over $1K on her both of those years She told me about he wanting a divorce a couple weeks later (the day after my older daughters bday) She was a stone cold bitch and I'm glad I'm rid of her. |

This thread makes me miss sevenmarythree.
The *worst* one I ever got was a single purple pillow case at my wedding shower. It was from some little old lady friend of the family and maybe it was all she had to give. Makes me tear up. She certainly didn't have to get a gift at all but she did and she got herself dressed and came to my shower without even really knowing me. I'll never forget that one purple pillow case.
