Hello All and Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah!

Who hasn't received that odd gift that, clearly, the giver had no idea of who you are? What is a person to do? Yep, re-gift it! All of those Christmas themed coffee mugs? Yep, re-gifted. That foul smelling discount Musk scented body wash? Yep, re-gifted. So, anyway, you get the gist.

Here is the deal. I have a gift key with several Interplay games attached to it. I would like to re-gift them. So, here are the holiday themed rules:

1: Post your worst gift ever: Mine was a cologne that literally smelled of dead animals (I wore it once to be nice).

2. I will select the worst (in my biased and jaded opinion) gift and will send the gift code to that person.

Then, enjoy. I will close this post on Monday December 17th at 7:00 PM EST. The winner will be chosen the week of the 17th.

Interplay Games:

Shogo: Mobile Armored Division
MDK
Sacrifice
Freespace_2
Fallout
Descent 3
Giants: Citizen Kabuto
Freespace

My worst gift received was a jelly stress ball shaped like a brain.
It was extremely sticky & kept getting lobbed about.
Frequently left stuck to a wall or ceiling or whatever for considerable periods of time.
Not so bad, maybe, but I got heartily fed up of all the "Where did you leave your brain this time?" type comments....

Worst gift given was probably when I gave a work colleague a secret santa gift of a thong & vibrator.

Not entering, but....

A children's book with my name on it ( e.g. <insert name> and his day at the beach)

FROM FOUR DIFFERENT AND UNRELATED PEOPLE! OH HA HA, HOW ORIGINAL!

I once got a label maker from a friend of mine it didn't work and the labels kept constantly falling off the boxes

The worst gift I received EVER (not just for Christmas mind you) was this.

I guess it was meant as a cruel joke, but it's kinda disgusting. The good part about it? I got the ones with the bacon flavor.

Not in but +1.

Not entering, but +1 for the giveaway.

My parents once gave me a hat - with my name on it in plain black letters. "This way, people will know who you are."

Not sure what was worse, the ugly gift itself or my parents basically implying I was invisible...lol.

My parents are really nice they're just out of their minds. Like, when my fiancee and I stood up at the dinner table to announce our engagement, and I said, "We have an announcement," my dad turns to me and goes, "[my name], are you... gay?" straight faced, not even kidding. I had been with my gf for 4 years... LMFAO.

Worst gift I ever received was a lump of coal and being told Santa knew i was naughty (I still believed in Santa at the time).

I cried my little eyes out until the gifts were discovered in the extra room.

Worst gift ever.. edit: I actually can top my orginal entry about the stack of crappy comics.. E.T. the video game for the Atari 2600. Imagine me as a kid on Christmas day all excited as my parents got me the video game based on my favorite movie at the time and imagine the disappointment where it was all about falling into pits.. nice symbolism if you think about

My worst gift... hmm... probably a deck of tarot cards from my uncle's ladyfriend at the time. It seemed like a really random gift and I just kind of left it sitting in my room amongst my crap for the longest time. Then I threw it out when I went cleaning through my stuff a year or two later. There's probably something worse I've received, but my brain's blocking it from memory right now.

Is it alright if I enter only for the Freespace games? If not, then I'll just leave my entry here anyway, it was a pretty bad gift for me. :P

Not entering but +rep

Entering!

Worst gift ever, got it a number of years ago: an M&M coloring Tablecloth. A tablecloth...that you're supposed to color??? There is nothing more useless in the world. Plus, I was well older than coloring age. Awful.

+1 for the giveaway!

the worst gift i ever got was a hunters orange tie with christmas lights all over it from my 5 year old nephew that used a 9 volt to light the lights up and play we wish you a merry christmas
