Since we've all got one at some point, and you can't have the perfect without the far from so.

I'd have to say for me it was a tie rack my uncle gave me(assuming I wear ties) last year. the dang thing looks like......hmm....the only good comparison would be a purple cat scratching post.

Oh, I'm great with "What's the tackiest Christmas present you've ever received?".

Some of them includes a tin of coffee beans (I was like 11), a bag of fun sized chips from the super market, a tin of Pringles chips. There's more, but I've forgotten because I tried to suppress the memory of tacky presents.

Oh my. At least your mum has a sense of humour. I woke up on Chrismas eve, ran out of my room to look under the chrismas tree, and saw nicely wrapped packages. I opened them to find......empty cardboard boxes.
Mum:"They are just decorations. You don't need any Chrismas presents, since I practically pay for your things all the time."

Oh well. At least I get a maths assessment book.

I got a similar gift once, except it wasn't rubber. It was a cobra made out of cloth and wire that popped out of a straw basket when you opened it. I squealed in delight when I opened it. *Likes snakes.*

But the tackiest gift I received was hands down... a pair of socks. They were hideous things--dark brown with white horizontal stripes. Now that almost made me faint.

The other one was underware and that was from my sister.

Once I got that thing (what-ya-call-it-now) you keep to hold the canvas up, when you're painting.
Why tacky? I hate painting (I'm no good at it either... Even though I'd want to), and at the time, I didn't even own any paint or brusher for that matter, at all.

I used to use it as a place to hang my clothes until I threw the bloody useles thing away...

the funniest thing ive ever seen during christ mas was when my cousn unwrapped his gift the box was a ceral box cause they ran out of good boxes

Here's a present that's really tacky. Ok, one day, I was at my sis's house and I had some McDee's. I was too lazy to put the ketchup on the fries so I put the ketchup on my mouth, then the fries. (I know I'm weird)

At christmas, I go to open a present from my sister and it's a Big Value sized ketchup bottle. All she had to say was 'Since you drink the stuff, I thought you'd like it'
That present was just cruel. She did an evil laugh too.

Every year at least one relative gives all the girl in my family body lotion and shower gel from bath and body works.

It's kinda wasted on us since most of us never use the fancy shower stuff. It just sits there until someone decided to be random (or they have chapped hands) and use it. We have like...every scent you could want in that cabinet.

I recieved panties once. Not cool panties from my boyfriend (or something) who'd want to see me in them... but granny panties, about 4 sizes too big, from my grandmother.

God, that was humiliating. I hid them immediately. All of my cousins and my little brother got tighty whities (I'm the only girl), though, so I guess it's not quite as bad. Almost not quite as bad. Maybe.

Maybe that's not so much tacky as badly thought and embarassing, but still...

when i was littel i was totally in to the teenage mutant ninja turtles

and all i wanted was an action figure of 1 of them
i didnt care if it was red, blue, orange or red
i didnt care if it would be my only present i just wanted a real TMNT!

so on christmas morning i got my present i rip it open
and i found in the cover paper a foot ninja....:notrust

i got as mad as killer monkey on heroine bananas
and cried : all i wanted was a turtle, just a turtle" "i dont like this"

and then to make it worse the gave me a sticker sheet with stickers of the turtles then i was like "WTF?"
the fuck am i gonna do with this??!
so after i cried all morning, day and night i accepted the fact that i got a foot ninja
so i went downstairs to go get it so i could add it to my to collection
but it wasnt downstairs so i rand back up and found my sister holdin the ninja's body in one hand and the head in the other hand and she was like " i thought the head could twist all the way around like your other toys"

at this moment i lost all self control and speaking skills
just imagine bruce banner turning into the hulk rampaging around town

i gave my sister the beating of her life that night

ahh..christmass memories

Hahaha at least I could sell those on Ebay. LOL. You try selling Batman Forever on tape on Ebay. :oh

LMAO. That's not true, I'd give you a quarter for it. Wait, damn, I sold my VCR back in 89'........I'll give you a dime. :oh

Clown toothpaste when I was 12.

It was so terrible, me and my brother threw it behind a plant, never to be seen again.

To this day, we still feel bad about what we did... almost brings a tear to my eye.
