I thought it might be fun for people to post their worst Christmas present ever for two reasons. 1. So that no one will buy a gift like that for someone else, and 2. So we can have a laugh.
I'll start it off with the one I received yesterday from my place of employement.
We had our usual morning meeting, but yesterday it was different. Managers were happy to report that the company had a gift for every employee. The company's way of saying thank you and that they appreciate the work we do for them on a daily basis.
I thought to myself, "How cool."
I was handed my present. It was wrapped up all pretty, and I opened it.
Ya know what it was?
A four pack of Chapstick. LOL And it wasn't even the brand name Chapstick. It was sugar babies, tootsie roll, and junior mint.
Oh yes, they were serious. It was my gift. LOL
I said, "Thank you", then slid out of the room.
Another girl who works with me got a man's disposable razor. LOL She said she was going to give it to her husband and say, "Here ya' go babe. Merry Christmas.

Pia, for some reason that doesn't surprise me...the whole being bad that year deal.
Same here. The worst present I got was something I didn't get. I entered this Secret Santa thing at my school with a group of friends. I spent about 15 bucks, maybe, on a gift for this one girl, I gave it to her, and that was it. I didn't receive anything and I was pretty disappointed. I mean, I spent money on this Secret Santa deal all for nothing?
Well...I guess it IS better to give than receive, though. At least someone is getting something.
The worst present I've ever gotten was a math book from my mother. It was truly one of the worst presents I've ever received. I remember that after I had opened 007 Goldeneye N64 game, I was so excited to open the next one, and it was a math book.
I cried for about ten minutes, because my parents had hidden the rest of my presents.
It sounds cruel, but watching that home video is very entertaining.
It was around 1987, I was just nine years old. One thing about me that never changed is that I am a very unorganized man. When I was a kid, my desk was the messiest, hehe...and so my aunt got me a pencil box, she said it would make me more organized. My cousins got toy cars, sweaters, MONEY, and I get the dollar fifty piece of sh*t pencil box that broke two weeks later.....
Today, my aunt gives me a hug and a cookie, and we call it a day. I'll take that any day over a pencil box....*apart from the fact that a 29 year old man should NEVER have a pencil box, EVER.*

This is not about a bad present, but a BAD party. I used to belong to big organization. our local group had 93 members. On our annual Christmas party and awards ceremony the local president was going to be in charge of the catering. Nothing fancy, just food and drinks. Other members had decorated the place and everything looked great. Everyone shows up and we're wondering were the food is. Ten minutes after the official start, the president shows up. Did she have food with her? Drinks? NO... I kid you not, all she brought was one package of Peeps!!!!
She never apologized for that disastrous party either.
I received a Christmas gift once which actually offended me. I know the person who gave it to me was all sincere and meant well.. and is very traditional... but, soooooo presumptious. He gave me an APRON.
OMG! I still remember how shocked I was! Like I would ever cook, first of all, and second of all... AN APRON??????????????????
My mom gave me a Duke shirt for Christmas. Anyone who knows the UNC-Duke rivalry would know that the worst gift you can give a Tar Heel fan is something with that stupid looking Duke logo on it.
