I think I received mine this christmas - from my partner's grandparents, a pink flamingo statue.

It is the most horrific thing I have ever seen. We dumped it on charity today.

Am I a bad person?

WhiteNoise~ we have a business here that rents flocks of those pink flamingos ( dressed up in holiday attire) to businesses.

I gave my jewelry to everyone this year and it may not be everyone's taste I suppose.

A pretty good Christmas all round for me, I'd say. 10 out of 10!

WhiteNoise and Lil~Our church's youth group has 15 of them that they place on people's lawns. The flamingo-ee can donate money to the church to have them removed and placed on someone else's lawn or wait three days, then members of the youth group will go pick them up. Most people are thrilled and love it. :)

It was a very rough year at this house; I had to give my daughter an IOU as a Christmas present, but with lots of XOXOXOXs included.

Nothing. Zip. Nada. I've received that for the past 5 years.

have to go with dress socks for my mother in law....I own one suit and maybe wear it once a year...not much point to it since she gave me the same thing last year.... :D
(though in her defence she did give me other really good stuff)

I purposely found this junky, ugly little snowman tealight candle holder and an ugly 99 cent teddy bear Christmas mug and sent it along with my parents all wrapped up to give to my new step-grandmother since she's a home-wrecker and she makes me sick. Since I wasn't along for the trip, they opened presents without me. My family had to stifle the giggles when she opened it!:rolleyes:
