![]() Everyone has a holiday horror story where someone gave a gift that wasn’t quite right. Read on for some of the more interesting holiday gifts you’ve ever had the pleasure of not giving. Here are a few more funny jokes to get through Covid-19 marked holidays. ![]() “Not sold in stores!” “One of my relatives is known for giving horrible gifts, and the year I was 16 I got a plain fleece blanket—the type that rolls up for easy transport. Clearly, I wasn’t thrilled, so I tried to return it. Well, that failed when customer service told me the blanket hadn’t been sold in stores… for three years!” –Alyssa Jung. ![]() “Cousin Nancy, you shouldn’t have “Every Christmas, cousin Nancy sends a box of holiday surprises: rice pasta (I am gluten intolerant), bars of Ivory soap, or perhaps Trail Mix. But this trout tie? Yes, Nancy remembered that I love to fish, but it’s as ugly as sin. I haven’t had the nerve to wear it for 15 years, yet I put it on now so you don’t think I’m making the story up.” –Fran Lostys. ![]() When a joke goes way too far “My ex-boyfriend used to call me ‘Larry’ as a joke instead of ‘Perri.’ For the holidays one year, he gave me a Tiffany’s robin’s-egg blue box. Exciting! Inside, I found a beautiful, initial necklace…but an ‘L,’ for Larry. I tried wearing it, but it was too hard to explain why the pricey jewelry had the wrong letter. To this day, I’m still in search of a best friend whose name starts with an L so I can pass it along.” –Perri O. Blumberg. ![]() Sounds like a cheap date “A book titled 101 Wines Under $5.” —Cindy M., Greensburg, Pennsylvania. These are the wine terms you should know by now. ![]() Not sure what message this is sending “I once received a toilet seat.” —Julie K., Shellsburg, Iowa. Maybe some funny Christmas jokes would have gotten a better laugh. ![]() At least they’re useful “A bag of cotton balls.” —Claudia A., Columbia Falls, Montana. Perhaps these gifts that won’t cause clutter would have been more appropriate. ![]() We’re all about body positivity but… “A turquoise man-kini. I am 60 years old and weigh 250 pounds.” —Erich P., Phoenix, Arizona. Here is the ultimate gift guide for everyone on your list. source:rd.com
