"Point of clarification: These would be gifts that were actually received..."

Ok, actually have a few that I actually received.

When I was about ten years old, my old man gave me nothing but tools for Christmas. I can barely tie my own shoes without hurting myself and this idiot gives me a cordless drill? I guess he was trying to turn me into a mechanic. (He failed miserably, I'm a CPA)

My worthless EX- father-in-law is the culprit here. Then the next year he gave me an emergency road side flare kit. To add insult to injury, he tried to justify it by saying what a great gift it was and that I would love it!!!

I yelled at him right in the living room that I hoped I would never have to used the D*&# thing...what a friggin idiot he was...
