Christmas presents that were not appreciated or odd

I got one of those inversion devices that allows me to hang upside down at a 60 degree angle while all my guts rush toward my heart forcing all my blood to rush toward my brain. It has come in handy so far to hang my coat on.

My father never wore ties, so one Xmas my kids wanted to know what to buy him, I said get him a tie so they gave him the tie and he acted all excited, then they gave him the real gift

Ideally a gift is made specially for the giftee.

What was that fable about the hair and the combs?

I received a travel mug that will leak if you tip it one way or the other and a sweatshirt that is a bit snug (I think it was purchased that way on purpose).

Dunno. A washboard for Valentines Day?

That might be sorta crass.

And, a galvanized wash tub for Christmas, wasn't?......LOL...LOL

I bought my own gifts, because, even if I spelled it out, provided pictures and, a map of the store, my husband would still get it wrong......bless his heart...

Supposed to help stretch out your back.

My friend down the street got his wife and vacuum cleaner. Not just any vacuum cleaner but one of those crazy expensive email Dyson thingies with the special motor and all the attachments and stuff.

She was not happy. We could hear her all over the neighborhood demanding recompense. "I want a new gift in this driveway first thing tomorrow morning and it better be bright red and go from 0 to 200 really fast!"

So yesterday morning there was a red bathroom scale in the driveway.

I hear the removal surgery went well and he should be able to relieve himself normally in a few weeks.

Hey, what can show more love than knowing that her true love is nicely dressed with clean white shirts?
