I know that my wife got me a pair of moccasins that I wanted, because I was home when the box was delivered. however, she wrapped up a note that says 'use the Force' to find them. I have looked without success, and she won't tell me where they are

Agreed A good set of tweezers is a useful tool. Or for really small screws also. Top drawer of my tool chest. Various tweezers, picks, magnifying loupes, and hypodermic needles. One of my soldering projects on an RC micro heli was way too delicate to do any other way. I stripped and cut wires with the tip of a 20g hypodermic needle under 20-30x magnification. At that point, it wasn't a needle - the bevel and tip were microscopic knives. |

I know this doesn't count but i find it hilarious. One year my father bought for my mom a vacum cleaner and a fire extinguisher he actually thought she'd like these items because she had mentioned needing new ones

My Wife left me 9 months ago. She sent a box of Tamales to me.
ETA: The Tamales are quite tasty, but still...... |

I got some handgun called a VP9. It came with 500 rds of AE 9mm and 150 rds of Hornady Critical Defense. I'm not even sure if it is a decent gun or not. Hopefully it isn't crap. You trolling Bro. I'm for real. You tell me which of my 5 gifts was the worst. 1. 150 rounds of CD 9mm 2. 500 rounds of AE 9mm 3. VP9 (9mm) 4. ADM 34mm Recon Scope mount 5. Shotgun Shell S&P shakers I am thinking #3 because I hear that HK hates everybody. |

Put it in the glove box of your vehicle. Around here "Bob" (aka Bug Out Bag) gives gifts each year. First year seemed like a bit of a joke to my son's & their wives. Since then they have looked forward to what "Bob" comes up with each year. Tweezers, small scissors & other items like that for a first aid kit for your bug out vehicle are essential. FTR: This year Bob gave an LED clip light, hair ties (for the ladies), some ACE bandages. |

I feel blessed. My family is pretty good about presents. Sometimes my brother pulls some wierd shit, but for the most part we all do ok. Some of you guys get the weirdest shit. I love this thread every year. View Quote We were at my Bro's for Christmas Eve last night. Under the tree - addressed to me - was a package marked "From Santa" . I tore off the wrapping paper and surprise! A three pack of white mid-calf Tube Socks. The three pair were held together by a paper seal - which had broken - and all three pair looked as if they had been tried on or worn, then crudely refolded, and the seal placed back around them. I think that my gift was three pair of used tube socks. |

No, she travels quite frequently and always takes the ones from home. I asked her 2months ago to buy a second pair so we would have a pair at home when she was gone. I guess she felt they where gift material.

They are great. But as a Christmas gift. She could have splurged for a travel set

FIL wrapped up a drinking glass out of his cabinet complete with dust for me. Which is marginally better than the nothing I got last year because he "wasnt in the Christmas spirit". The bad part is we get along well and he has came into some money the last couple years.

Methinks this will be a "no cooch check" Christmas to make it even better. |

Went to bed at 3am after driving around in some great weather looking at Christmas lights. All was well.
Wake up at 930 to find her not talking to me. The whole 'whats wrong' ...'nothing' bullshit game except this time I had ZERO fucking idea WTF the problem was. After we started literally arguing over nothing, that I knew nothing about I come to find out that she is apparently mad at me because I didn't wake up early and make her some sort of Christmas breakfast. Wait, what? We never discussed this. There is no 'Christmas breakfast'. This hasn't happened before so its not like I forgot. It was seemingly invented sometime between 3am and 930am, today. Plus I have crab to make for lunch and prime rib for later; not like there's nothing to eat today or that I'm sitting around doing nothing. So what happens? Does it deescalate because she realizes that this is fucking retarded? Oh no. She packs her bag and goes to work. The bitch went to work. TO WORK. The hospital clinic is closed today. CLOSED. But she went to work to sit there and do who the fuck know what. Because of some breakfast that doesn't exist. Yeah. So now my plans went from Christmas, gifts, hanging out, to, drinking 40s of Miller High Life, smoke a cuban Cohiba on the patio, 9.6lb prime rib for 1 and eventually switching to scotch. What. The. Fuck. |

There was an ad on Facebook for a flamethrower (FREE napalm mix with coupon code!). I'm pretty sure I need one.
I got a refillable Zippo butane lighter and a trial size can of Tresemme hairspray. |

One year when I worked for UPS, they decide that since they made us work until 2:00 AM on Christmas Eve, they would give us nice presents for Christmas.
They gave us frozen three pound turkeys on the way out. First, where do you get frozen three pound turkeys? Second, what moron at UPS thought that their employees did not buy their Christmas dinner in advance because they hoped that UPS would give them a miniature turkey? |
