Weird presents

What is the weirdest present you have ever given or received?

I'm giving my ex a Freud action figure. I bought it specifically because it is the dumbest thing I've ever heard of. Aren't action figures supposed to do stuff?

Well i don't know about presents i have given. But my friend gave me a rubber bat (the flying kind of bat) because he said i was a vampire. I have no idea why.

my parents routinely give pictures of stuff they planned on getting but couldn't get in time. for my highschool graduation i got a big box that contained a picture of an ibook.

3,000th post!

my mother once gave me a trashbag full of things that i had asked for when i was 6...

I'm planning on getting my girlfriend's father a knife for Christmas.

I got my sister a little toy horse that she could throw at people like in the movie Gladiator (I think). I haven't even seen the movie and I thought it was kinda dumb, but, hey, she got a kick out of it.

I gave my brother this.

Some Aussie friends of mine had one of those.... it was actually incredibly cool and very useful.

you are not a smart man.
dont you realize, no matter what you think, he does not like you, you're dating his daughter

man, you.re just asking to get stabbed.



i gave a buddy of mine about 12 of HIS hawaiian shirts encased in a block of ice.

My lil sister bought the Dr Suess book "My book about me" for me. I was all pumped to fill it out myself, but no chance, she already filled out every page about herself.

I'm thinking about having some T-shirts made up with a picture of me on them. Christmas gifts for ALL my friends.

That might be the saddest story I've ever heard.

this evening i received a bottle of moose drool. i am not making this up.

I got a set of those corn shaped pronged corn holders for christmas once from "Santa" ..... and it wasn't a gag gift.

today was fake christmas.
in my stocking was skintimate shave gel, melon soap, and q-tips.
santa thinks im a dirty & hairy girl apparently

and id tell you the silly thing i got EvanX but he has yet to open it

That's good beer.

we're gettin a friend a "volcano". One of those kiddie science things where you just add soda and water and it creates an "volcano" effect. Only cause the guy we're getting it for has everything he could want already.
He'll be getting beer as well.

As a teacher, I get all kinds of wierd crap, although the gifts seem to be waning as the years go on. I'm thankful in a way.

Two years ago, I received 2 gifts that were equal in their strangeness:

1) a 1 foot tall, pearlescent cross with a white boy kneeling in prayer at its foot. This from an adorable Mexican boy. It's a shame more images aren't made in culture appropriate skin hue. He likes god alot and apparantly thinks I do too or should, anyway.

2) a giant (2 foot tall maybe? it was in a sitting position) porceline faced doll. She had super curls, a fluffy dress, and was all ready to swing on her, attached, tree swing. This from a mother fighting me on a B+. I ask you, does a 25 year old need a giant, porceline, tree-swinging doll?

i got one of those.. 13inch plastic army guys.. that when you turn them on they crawl and make shooting noises.

my friends mom gave her a box of gluesticks and half of a $5 bill last Christmas...silence filled the room when she opened them...

i've got the moses one as well

dunno why really

Some random Christian worship CDs. The guy didn't know what to get me for my birthday party.

My parents do that too.
