Cop gave me a speeding ticket for my birthday. I'm counting it as a present because he said, "Happy Birthday" when he gave it to me.

My weird alcoholic grandma that my dad doesn’t really talk to got me a shaving kit when I was 10.

Motivational calendar...

Thanks mom

A box of Mario fruit snacks when I was a kid.

My aunt only ever knew one thing about me, that I grew up liking Harry Potter. First I got all the books, split across two years. Then I got all the movies as they came out, up to the 5th one. After that I was apparently too old for her to know what I liked, I got a gift card to a gas station for 3 years in a row. I mean hey $20 in gas wasn't a totally awful thing as a late teenager, so I guess it could have been worse.

A few years ago I went to visit my mom around Christmas, I picked her up and we were heading over to my grandmas. On the way, while my 1 year old is screaming in the back seat, she asked if she could run into a store on the way.

When we got to my grandmas she gave me the bag that she had just bought, store logo on it and everything, no hiding a thing, that contained 1 roll of camouflage themed duct tape, and a pack of trash bags.

I had told her earlier in the year that I was using trash bags and duct tape to block the windows in my garage while I was doing some renovations in there, and so she got me trash bags and duct tape, almost a year later...

I still appreciate that she got me anything at all and there was at least a thought behind it even if I don't understand that thought.

Not me but I was at a New Years Eve white elephant party where everyone brought something they were gifted but didn't want. Someone who had a relative that owned a video rental store (yeah 90's) brought a promotional press packet for a Steve Martin/Goldie Hawn movie. B&W glossy photos of the stars, photocopied excerpts of the script, bunch of crap stuffed into a cardboard folder. So basically they gifted their high end junk mail. As for me I got a flamingo costume

Older brother wrapped up his old dirty shoes for me for Christmas.

He thought it was hilarious.

I think the "worst" thing I ever got was a VR headset. It wasn't a bad present per say and I really liked it at the time but unfortunately the VR space died pretty fast and it was completely useless soon after I got it.

Edit: it was a headset where you put your phone inside, I should have said that first

The gift of world peace. It was granted to me in lieu of the PS2 I wanted by my fairy godmother. Needless to say I held my breath until she finally relented, and took it back. She gave me a PS2 and I close the curtains and put on headphones a lot when I'm at home.

Rum flavoured spirit drink.. Twice.

Store bought pudding, no clue what I was supposed to do with that.

My grandmother bought me a dark green, polyester, turtle-neck shirt; when I was 12. I never even tried it on.

A small drinking cup +possibly unintended whooping cough that ruined my entire holiday season.

I think I only ever received one good present.
