What is the worst gift you have ever received? This morning I opened mine...a white porcelain mouthwash dispenser. It was bad enough having one in the family, but my parents were lucky enough to get their own.

Theoretically, that thing should also be able to dispense single-malt scotch.

My grandson was sure I gave him a “worst gift” – underwear.
He’s just entered his teenage years, so he’s hard to buy for. Last year I gave him an electronic drum set – he could practice while wearing head phones. This year I was stumped so I gave up.
I put a $50 bill in a card, the card in a small box and the small box in an underwear size box. When I gave it to him he hefted it, shook it – and tried to keep a smile on his face.
He was very happy when he opened it.

A Miami Dolphins scarf and touque. Dad thought he was being hilarious knowing I HATE Miami. (I got him back with an Oakland Raiders hat the next year). I immediately gave them to my obnoxious Miami fan buddy.

I really wish I had taken a picture of my worst Christmas present ever, but I threw it out first. Last year a friend of mine (a rather wealthy one at that) gave me a hideous cast-metal clock in the shape of a nude female. The pose made it look like J. Lo either serving a volleyball or showing off Ben Affleck's huge diamond ring. It was made in China, of course. The clock was taped on and stopped working within a week.

Second worst present:
Welcome back Kotter tee-shirt and the invariable ass-whooping that goes with wearing it.

Cha Cha Chia. I got ya beat!
I received this about seven or eight years ago.
I didn't know whether I should laugh or cry.
I still gave it try. Never saw more than like two sprouts.
It's not even worthy of re-gifting /kidding

We regifted this year! Last year through my employer we got a set of colored crystal drinking glasses, which we don't need. The unopened box served as a pedestal for our tabby for the past year. The glasses went to my brother and his family this year, who really need them, but with a full disclosure as to the regifted nature of the gift.

A nail polish deluxe set from my aunt. I have never polished my nails, and don't even want to. The only reason I kept the thing was because it included nail clippers, which are very useful.
