    It'd be awesome if the numbers were something unexpected, like No 3 and No 3578756763, although I'm not sure why. It just would.

    I got nothing, I would have killed for a onesie.

    Don't be so ungrateful.

    (best)My J1 to New York or Myrtle Beach paid for...(worst) The ninja socks my mam got me that had grip on the bottom of them :( I was so sad I couldn't do some Elvis slides throughout my hallway... And even though my mam had given me so much she felt sorry when I told her about how I couldn't Elvis Presley through the sitting room!! Love that women!

    Sennheiser's are in no way bad headphones! probably some of the best headphones you can get if you pay the money they are worth!

    A cheap plastic Christmas decoration. Who buys decorations as a present?

    At what point did they think "oh look! Torment would love this".


    It actually annoyed me somewhat considering the thought Id put into theirs and hoping that they'd like it while opening it.

    I hate getting clothes as presents
    Next year I'm going to buy her Sennheiser headphones
    That'll teach her

    Best present-my Louis Vuitton handbag from my husband! Worst-the one that didn't arrive in the post from my sister in the UK. Ah well, still have something to look forward to i suppose :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 474 ✭✭Candy_Girl


    Best was a Garmin forerrunner 10 and a Dune purse.
    Maybe not the worst present as such but I'm not a fan of cream/bath sets so I'll recycle that at some stage.

    I didn't get any bad presents this year. Usually I'd never consider a present 'bad', just maybe not something I'd necessarily want. However one year I got a really bad one and it stands out in its crapness. It was from a friend of mine, and she bought a pair of the ugliest old-lady-looking slippers ever. The ugliness wouldn't have bothered me as much, but it was the fact that she bought them in a size 4. I'm a size 7 and she knew that because she borrowed shoes from me before and we're the same size. :(

    I'd take the fact that she bought them in a size four as a compliment. A size 7 women, Sheeeeeshhhh D:


    Joking of course!

    Last year got tickets to War of the Worlds....

    Brilliant! But almost a whole year to wait.... Not on until November. That just sucks.

    Then the show was canceled a couple weeks before show date - cash went back to buyer - so I ended up with nothing at all after waiting 10 months :(

    “Roll it back”
