After looking over the Stupid stuff people buy thread, I began to think what it the crappiest present you've ever gotten? You know, that present you think "why did they even bother to get me anything?"
My crappiest gift was when I was around eight or nine, I got a "Make your Own Soap" kit from my grandfather.
I had someone once give me one of those free AOL CDs you see everywhere.
On my last birthday, my grandpa last gave me a door sign that said "Doug's Room... Keep Out... Hazardous Area..." apparently forgetting I'm an 18 year old man!
I once got a gift card to a fishing store. Which is weird because I don't fish.
Almost every year for Christmas my grandmother sends me what she considers a nice sweater or shirt... which is either too small for me and/or designed for a woman. I know she means well but she's old as you can imagine.
for hanukkah two years ago, my mother got me harvey nagila, a doll that dances to hava nagila. she thought it was cute, i not so much.
Two years ago, my grandfather got me a Barbie doll. Seriously, a Barbie doll. I ended up giving it to one of my cousins.
I once got an Easy Button from Staples. All it does when you press it is say "That was easy".
As I mentioned in the Stupid stuff people buy thread, I got Inflatable Toast for my birthday last year. Still can't figure out what to do with it.
I got a tree somewhere in Central America with my name on it.
Years ago I got a bra for christmas. O_o It was infront of my whole family! I almost died. Funny memory now, but horrible back then. lol XD
I have an aunt who would just raid her attic for presents every year. One year, I got a old doll with an arm broken off. Apparently she forgot that I'm an adult man.
I was pretty lucky as a kid and never got anything I would call bad. One of my friends however got a book from her parents that was from a library (and not bought either).
While I wouldn't consider them bad, my grandparents would always give me and my brother little toy soldiers every year. I swear they gave us so many we could probably invade Iraq with them.

Yikes, you got that as well? I also received dancing Harvey last year.
