Ten Worst Christmas Gifts
The MIL got me a box of Starbucks coffee for the Keurig. I don't like Starbucks, and don't use the Keurig. The wife uses it, but doesn't drink coffee. So, I have a box of coffee I won't be using. Might take it to work but expect it won't get used. So, what are the ten "worst" Christmas gifts? Here's a crack at it.
1. A Used Candle
Bonus points if it’s half-burned and smells like someone else’s house.
2. The Infomercial Kitchen Gadget
Takes up half a drawer and does exactly one pointless thing.
3. A “Funny” Mug That Isn’t Funny
Especially if it’s about mornings, wine, or hating coworkers.
4. Clothes Two Sizes Too Small (or Too Big)
A gift and a subtle insult in one neat package.
5. Regifted Office Swag
Logo pens, stress balls, or a tote bag from a conference you didn’t attend.
6. A Self-Help Book You Didn’t Ask For
Nothing says “Merry Christmas” like unsolicited life advice.
7. Scented Anything with a Strong Opinion
Pine-Vanilla-Cinnamon-Mystery is not a safe bet.
8. Decor You Must Display Immediately
A porcelain figurine that silently judges you if it’s not out by noon.
9. A Subscription That Renews Automatically
Congratulations, you’ve gifted an annual annoyance.
10. “It Builds Character” Gifts
Socks with holes, puzzles missing pieces, or anything labeled “practical.”
