Shoddy PresentsI have an aunt who for many years would send me the same christmas present every year. A Biro. Each year I wrote inevitable "Thankyou so much for the Biro. I am using it to write this letter" letter, each year a new one arrived.
Tell us all about the rubbish that has been foisted upon you over the years.

Senile GrandmaMy grandmother gave me a check for $2.50 for my bithday, with a note saying that I should use it to buy a couple pairs of pants. Thus showing that she was not only too senile to have any sense of what things cost these days, but also that she intended to buy me clothes (which is, of course, the worst), but didn't even want to bother going through the trouble to do so. Well, at least it gave me a good laugh. RIP Grandma.
