    My brother bought me a copy of War and Peace once.

    I got as far as reading the back page to see how many pages there were and then left it to gather dust.

    one time for my birthday my friend gave me a plastic duck.

    one day he saw hundreds of them floating down the dodder river so he snatched one for me, i still have it.

    oh, and the best wierdest present was my heavy duty poncho i got this year, its so cool, in a drugged out hippy way :)

    Always wanted a good poncho.

    A chinese terracotta tea set.

    EDIT: Not unlike this one Chinese Tea Set

    Considering I'm a 21 year old male, that's pretty damn weird. Though it was from some old chinese people and I have since acquired a taste for chinese tea. Really sorts the head and body out after a ****ty day.

    A money pouch made from a kangaroo's scrotum.

    Three ninja throwing stars. First one that comes to mind, anyway. What a great present...

    A mate of mine sent me a shock/horror present. He sent me some toe nail clippings in an envelope. He sent me a real present the next day though.
