Worst present ever?

This thread is worthless without pics.

My wife used her employee discount to pick up some software for a cow-orker of mine many years ago.
Cow-orker's wife made us this. It was actually a fairly thoughtful thing for her to do.
It has decorated our garage for many years.

I was very pleased with the thought of seeing her face on Xmas morning when she opened the box and saw the wonderful combs for her beautiful hair. Xmas morning came and she gave me a gift. It was a wonderful chain for my pocket watch...the watch I had just sold! Then I noticed she had cut her hair. She had sold her hair to buy my watch chain!

at the reactions *****, why'd you cut your hair??!!

I'm almost feeling bad for this one. Almost.

When I was 7 my sister gave me some pink VS underwear, with a CD hidden underneath. Unfortunately I ran from the room crying before I discovered the CD. At 14 I wasn't given anything for Christmas, my parents forgot me, but not my siblings or eachother.
This happened to me on my birthday and Christmas... fml my parents made some lame ass excuse and got me a "present" later. they basically got me something they were going to get me anyways, so I still lost out on a real present.

This last christmas a family friend bought all my siblings $20 iTune gift cards. She bought me a lilic air freshener.

What every seven year old boy wants: And now I have 3K+ posts on a fashion forum. **** you uncle Brian!

My grandmother sent me a card for my recent birthday. I'm sure it's laying around somewhere, but the only actual mention of my birthday is the cat on the front of the card. The rest of it is spent telling me why I was a bad grandson. I visited this woman only a few weeks before that. Her daughter (my aunt) sent me a card saying that a $15 donation to the Catholic church had been made in my name.

Not me, but my sister:

My father and I got my little sister a Log (a la "Ren & Stimpy") that is, we went to a wood pile and wrapped an actual log. She had to be 9-10 years old or so. I thought it was hilarious but she burst into tears. Then she was given her real present

Got a used 5 series when I asked for a new 3 series.

Every year, continuously, I get the worst presents from my brother in Brooklyn. He doesn't do too bad for himself... I mean, he is an investment banker WITH a job, unlike 75% of the other investment bankers still living off unemployment right now. But he's very frugal, and thus results to shopping at China Town for everyone's Christmas presents. It's ******* ridiculous.

Some notable ones was a bottle of Burberry perfume he gave to my sister. We all doubted its authenticity being that it came from my brother, so she took one whiff of it and then threw it in the garbage. We called him up the next day and asked him where he got it from. You bet ya. China motha fuckin Town.

One of my favorite china town presents was a miniature sized poker set. The coins were the size of my thumbnail, and the cards the size of my thumb. I'm not sure how one is to play poker with a set that small. Oh well.

J Crew cardigan last christmas.

Yes, truly gifts worthy of the Magi.
