    When I was fourteen my grandma gave me this broach/pin that was the size of my fist of a light up reindeer.  I was obligated to wear that dreadful thing every holiday for six years!

    A bright red PVC handbag in the "Jackie O" style, also when I was 14.  NOT my cup of tea at all...

    I would have to say, the lamest gift I've ever received, was NOTHING, except a "Happy Birthday", which was given to me by my mother, my sister, my nieces(both), but received no gifts.

    Each of them said- "Happy Birthday", but didn't bother to take the time to buy a card or anything else for that matter.

    Christmas gifts- I've never received anything lame.

    Wish I had your heart.  The worst gifts I ever recieved were from the director of our department - she felt she had to buy gifts for the six staffers (myself included).  Thoughless, only done because she would look bad if she didn't do something. Bought at the dollar store had absolutely no meaning or connection to anything.  Left on my desk, didn't even get a personal note nor did she say anything - someone saw her leave it there and on the other's desks.  I'd rather not get that kind of gift.  I turned it into something good though - gave it to our church for their yard sale - they got $2. since it was new and had never been opened.

    When my x and I were getting a divorce... as he still kept trying to insist that he cared or payed any attention to me even knew me...

    He comes home one day and gives me a red tulip.  He says, "I know that the color red and tulips are your favorite."  I says, "No, Chris... orange is my favorite color and hibiscus is my favorite flower, tulips are the flower I least like."
