Shortly After My Cat Died When I Was 10 And Was Devastated, My Lovely Aunt Gave Me This Book As A Gift While We Were All Gathered Together On Christmas Eve. I Spent The Rest Of The Evening Crying. She Was A Hateful Woman
Probably said something along the lines of "Oh come on it's funny, it was just a cat."
Lost Everything In Hurricane Katrina. Sister And Husband Give Me Picture Of Hurricane Katrina
Padded Coat Hangers. Three Of Them. They Were Pink And Slightly Scented. I Was Fifteen Years Old And Unimpressed
Salt And Pepper Shakers
Not even fancy ones either, just bog standard salt and pepper shakers
I Received My Own Doll
In August my fancy, porcelain-face doll was sent away for repairs. My folks gave me the repaired doll for Christmas. My own doll WTF
Manners Book...i Was A Nice Kid, No Sarcasm
Gift Certificate For A Mcdonalds Cheeseburger. This Was My Only Christmas Gift One Year. I Was Little Like 5 Or 6
I sat there crying while watching my 3 cousins open about $1000 worth of presents, each. Then my mother started yelling at me that I was being disrespectful and ungrateful and I should be glad I got anything at all.
Gift Card For Steaks But.... I Am A Vegetarian

3 Soap Bars... In The Same Year. I Guess Older People Don't Know What To Give To A 21 Yo Girl
Maybe it's because I'm 22, but I'd love to receive fancy soap bars like the ones in the picture lolll
That One Time My Friend Gave Me A Dried Up Tub Of Slime That Belonged To Her Younger Sister That Had Boogers And God Knows What Else Stuck In It. Plus, 3 Days Later She Had The Audacity To Ask For It Back After I'd Already Thrown It Out
A Photo Blanket Of A Boy And His Puppy. Not Our Boy, Not Our Puppy. Strangers. The Photo Store Was Going Out Of Business And Was Selling Off All The Samples
A Peach Turtle Neck
When I Was 13 my Gram gave me a peach turtle neck sweater. Probably something from Tan Jay (a favorite brand of the older ladies), I thanked her, but never ever wore it or even tried it on. Gram died 11 years ago.....I wish I had of appreciated that sweater, and her, more. I miss her the most at Christmas.
Presents
Underwear, socks,and bras from grandma. Never the right size , except the socks
Every single person in my family (all 31) except for my aunt gave me athletic wear. My aunt gave me a jar of nutella. Message received.
My condolences on the personalities of your legal relations. Might want to ask the aunt about the intention of her gift though. She might be worth keeping around depending on it's meaning.

On my 13th birthday I slammed into a window and acquired 11 hours in the ER, around half a year of recovery where I had to pull the stitches out myself, permanent nerve damage, and gory, visible scars. I have to live with this now and I f*****g hate it. It's not even a respectable way to get scars, and when someone inevitably asks how I got them I have to be like 'yeah I got these horrible scars and permanent damage from being a dumbass' and it's become a joke in my friend group, a ton of people have me saved as window on messages and every time I see it I want to cry because I don't want to be defined by one of the worst things in my life. So yeah that's probably the worst bday gift I've ever gotten
The worst? Probably the Cherokee language course from my corporate-executive sister-in-law. Why?
Are you domehowcrekated to Native Americans, or have you ever said you wanted to learn Cherokee? It's so weird! Sometimes, people's reactions are totally unexplainable. By the way, have you learnt any Cherokee?
