Wo...I'm a day late, but happy birthday, baby!!<br /><br />Worst gift I ever got? On my 16th birthday every person alive forgot. I'd broken up with my boyfriend and everyone just forgot about it. Halfway through the day my youngest brother had to get stitches for a cut, so I spent it alone in my room with my labrador, Charcoal.<br /><br />When my dad got home and realized he gave me some money and apologized.

As in, tie-in cologne for the show <i>Beverly Hills 90210</i>. Though it wasn't the only thing my mom gave me that year, and I <i>think</i> she mainly gave it to me to be amusing (and because it was cheap, and she probably thought I liked the show, though in reality I never even watched it). I later passed it on as a gag gift at a white elephant party! It would have been pretty bad as a completely serious gift. <br /><br />One of the worst birthdays was my 14th, when I thought I was going to Six Flags with my first boyfriend, but he stood me up, which was his way of breaking up with me, so I spent the day at the movies alone. When I finally saw him the next day, the relationship was over and I didn't get a gift, though he did give me a raunchy birthday card!Alisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16552942148581557167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38053992.post-26666214508153099582009-07-22T17:12:24.871-04:002009-07-22T17:12:24.871-04:00Well I guess the worst (at the time) was finding o...Well I guess the worst (at the time) was finding out my second husband was having an affair and was leaving me and the kids. <br /><br />Linda HendersonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38053992.post-22589791413958603032009-07-22T16:16:30.492-04:002009-07-22T16:16:30.492-04:00I got an ugly colored blouse once that didn't ...I got an ugly colored blouse once that didn't quite button up correctly. I studied it, thinking that maybe moving the buttons to line up with the buttonholes better would fix it, but there was no way that was going to work because the collar and the bottom of the blouse didn't match. It seems that the fronts were two different sizes, because there was no way to fix it. I tried to take it back, but (name removed to protect the guilty) had bought it on clearance for $2 and I didn't particularly want $2. So I just kept it as a curiosity.DukTapehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13410826833929945816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38053992.post-88008202194701927512009-07-22T16:10:10.381-04:002009-07-22T16:10:10.381-04:00Happy Birthday!

When I opened the present, she urged me to put them on. I didn't look in the mirror, so I failed to notice that you could see through them. My family thought it was hilarious.Jixncehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15706601038243321571noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38053992.post-15410701818537662172009-07-22T16:00:42.005-04:002009-07-22T16:00:42.005-04:00Oooh!

She went in my closet and wrapped it up and put a bow on it. I'd already worn it about ten times. I thought, "Well, maybe she had it drycleaned or something," but, no, there was still a stain of the collar. I think that was worse than the time someone gave me a Patrick Swayze head carved out of a coconut. The eyes would follow you everywhere around the room. It was really creepy. I should have wrapped it in the shirt and thrown in in the ocean.Seanhttp://www.seanbeaudoin.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38053992.post-49112438603676087492009-07-22T13:45:40.775-04:002009-07-22T13:45:40.775-04:00Wow, what a lot of great stories!

The closest I can think of was when one roommate who didn't really like me once gave me a dried thistle...and swore that it wasn't to imply that I was prickly, but because it was pretty.

I'm still mad about that one, and it was several years before we divorced (and that's coming up on 11 years ago now).Conniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11712592215157559413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38053992.post-70133302755560589002009-07-22T13:25:24.755-04:002009-07-22T13:25:24.755-04:00No one ever believes this, but it's true.
