SilvrT Posted December 19, 2007 #26 Posted December 19, 2007 I hardly ever remember what I got or gave the xmas past or birthday past but it never fails that I get caught when she says "you mean you don't remember getting me that...."!!! However, I do remember getting my own pool que a few years back. I remember this for two reasons... the first is because I always wanted one and the second is because I will never forget that Bi#ch I was living with at the time that gave it to me! Dang but that que works good....I sure love to break the rack with it coz I think about her when I do!
Sailor Posted December 20, 2007 #27 Posted December 20, 2007 The worst present I actualy got was a 49 cent plastic flashlight on a key chain. There were no batteries but that didn't matter as it was broken anyway. I got it from my father. I gave him a bottle of single malt scotch. Another year he gave me a plaid shirt with no buttons that he got in a bargan basement sale. He was quite wealthy and bought whatever he wanted for himself so it was kind of hard to find anything for him.

Got rid of mine too.
fixit3546 Posted December 20, 2007 #29 Posted December 20, 2007 speaking from experience! the very WORST gift you can give your wife, is a card with CASH, in it! you get called all kind of ugly names , for not being sensitive enough to "know what she really wanted". yeah! like i have been a practicing physic for my whole life! if a woman wants something specific, why don't they just come right out and tell us??????? oh , and don't go the EXPENSIVE perfume route either!!! don't ask me how i know that! just jt OKAY...........Mt wife still is faithfull to make it known that i don't spend enough "Quality time" with her. So i thought that the perfect gift would have been to give her just exactly what she wanted....time. I gave her a "cupon" redeemable at the drop of a hat for 48 hours alone in any reasonable location. With-in about a 400 - 500 mile radius.................. Well I'll just say it didn't fly, and I no longer feel guilty about being gone, even though those times are still few and far between......... Geezzzzzzzzzz...............What does it take to please yall???
Snarley Bill Posted December 20, 2007 #30 Posted December 20, 2007 can't really say i ever got a worse present for christmas.no matter what i got i always loved it.whether i needed it or not.i live with the two best things i ever got my wife and my puppy.
Jrichard Posted December 20, 2007 #31 Posted December 20, 2007 If anyone receives 'the gift that keeps on GIVING'---------PLEASE send it to ME!!-----------the Legendary bourbon or sherry SOAKED ---------------"FRUITCAKE"----------
mbrood Posted December 20, 2007 #32 Posted December 20, 2007 When my wife and I were first married... her folks gave me a small pair of vise grips and they gave her a pair of "genuine lucite" earrings... gee, genuine plastic! As apposed to??? Her dad was a finance manager for a major aerospace and his wife worked at Neiman Marcus... They must have been so proud... we laughed (later) and just chucked 'em.
rosebud Posted December 20, 2007 #33 Posted December 20, 2007 If anyone receives 'the gift that keeps on GIVING'---------PLEASE send it to ME!!-----------the Legendary bourbon or sherry SOAKED ---------------"FRUITCAKE"---------- My parents happen to love fruitcake! At their age (87) they no longer want the 'stuff' kind of presents so I usually try to give them food related. Several years ago Christmas I tracked down the bakery of what they consider the best fruitcake and always send my dad one as his present. Well this year, my oldest daughter remembered her grandparents like fruitcake and sent them one. I got a 2 for 1 deal with mine and sent them 2. I just heard from my youngest that she got her grandparents a fruitcake too. None of us talked to the other before we ordered ours. What do you think my father is gonig to say when he gets 4 fruitcakes this year instead of 1? He'll have fruitcake until the snow melts in the spring.
Yammer Dan Posted December 20, 2007 #34 Posted December 20, 2007 I got her ME!! Was I supposed to get something else??
