What was the worst gift you got this year?

I apologize, I definitely do not want to sound ungrateful for ANYTHING, let alone the presents GIFTED to me. I know people don't always have money, and this thread had nothing to do with your dislike for a certain item or said money spent on the certain item.
One example is the time I received a Gameboy for Xmas when I was 7. "Santa" forgot the batteries, and my parents argued on who's helper didn't get the batteries, and why all of the remote batts where dead... This Christmas landed on a Saturday and I had to wait until monday to get them... monday came and went as the deep snow blanketed my town in. I had to wait 4 days to get those AA's. But it was the 4 days of wait and anticipation that I will tell you/everyone, that it was the worst/best present.
An example of a "read between the lines" present was a few years ago- He was a good buddy of mine who had just turned 18 a few weeks before Xmas. For his birthday, his parents got him a toaster and napkin holders. He laughed and asked if they where joking and his dad said "oh ya... uh, we where just kidding" and took them back and helped get him snowboard bindings. Now that wasn't all. When Christmas came around, he got a pots and pans set and a glasswear set.
Phone with no charger?
Printer no ink?
I was looking for stories like this. Any gifts/stories/gift stories along these lines?
No disrespect Feyd or anybody else who took this thread in a negative demeanor. I don't know about you, but I just love to sit down in a circle, passing my bong left to the next smoker along the clockwise works of a circle- reflecting, collaborating and expanding both mentally and physically with fellow stoners as we envelope ourselves in that which is storytelling with one another. I suppose I should have thought about this and posted this as my first post... You live, you learn.
Peace,
Smoke68

I haven't bitched about a Christmas gift since I was 3 or 4...but this year I got something that just baffled me. Me & the wife got a "Baby Jesus in a Crib" from her niece's daughter. It was actually her(my wife's sister's) idea to get everyone a ****ing baby jesus in a crib. I know she had good intentions(****ing Catholics)...but damn...could've warned me.

the cops gave me a pretty bad gift this year at 2am on christmas - a trip to jail and charged with 2 felonies - for having 2 of the tiniest roaches i've seen and a pack of papers
haha I getcha... hmm let's see "worst" gift I got this year was a 300 DVD.
Little does my Mom know that in my DVD player in my apartment is....300 :\
"Oh wow thanks Mom I love this movie! Yeah it's really cool I like it thanks...do you still have the receipt?"
Damn Uner that sucks...

ya there was like 5 cops standing around with nothing better to do than **** me over. and they all just had the worst shiteating grin on their face it just ****in pissed me off so much, you know that kinda smug look that just makes you want to go over and smack it off their face. one of them felt the need to be such an asshole that when he told me that they were taking me to jail, he had to add in "so that's your christmas present from us"
and you know what makes it really worse? i had been driving for 8 hours. i made it alll the way to my destination (my brothers house where i was visiting for christmas) and right when i pulled up in front of his house and parked my car, and was so relieved to finally be there and be done with my driving, that's when the ****ing pig lit me up.
sorry to hijack your thread i'm going to make my own thread about my busted story when i get around to it i've just been too lazy to post it but i've been meaning to
