Probably said something along the lines of "Oh come on it's funny, it was just a cat."

If someone had given me this book after I buried my soul cat last year, my hand might have slipped and smashed it right into their stupid face. I might have also accidentally deleted their phone number. So sorry, that you have a monster for an aunt.

I just lost my little Huey a week ago. I would punch my aunt out if she gave me this.

My friend who’s an animal lover would frown upon receiving this (they’re a dog person but would probably still think it’s disgusting rather way)

    One of my neighbors went skydiving the parachute didn't open, he shattered both of his legs and lots of other things. For the one year "anniversary" of it his wife and family gave him pictures of the accident and skydiving lessons, he was still in a wheelchair! People can be cruel, especially when they think they're funny.

    My grandparents were on a tight budget, and one time my grandmother gave my a giftwrapped, obviously used, (complete with lipstick marks inside) black old lady's purse/handbag that was horrible! But I certainly appreciated the intent. Smiling up at you grandma!

    These hangers are great. They don't leave creases in the shoulders or stretch it out so there's this visible bump where the edge of the hanger was.

    I actually have this book, it in fact mostly talks about how to deal with people who are sh*t to you without making yourself look like the bad guy. I mean, I was given it as a teen and was totally offended by it but it actually helped me convince a ton of adults to let me do what I want

    I sat there crying while watching my 3 cousins open about $1000 worth of presents, each. Then my mother started yelling at me that I was being disrespectful and ungrateful and I should be glad I got anything at all.

    Don't you guys dare down vote this comment, because all you have to think about is how you would feel if you were just five or six years old and everyone around you gets great gifts and you get a cheap coupon for fast food. Kids deserve better than how this OP was done, which is humiliating and cruel no matter what age the recipient is. If you think there should be gratitude, then every kid present that day should have gotten nothing, or, all of them should have been given coupons. There's no justification for this kind of public embarassment and marginalization of one child who is among others being given more favor.

    My mother was killed in a car wreck in June of this year. I've been talking to my dad's sister (the aunt in this particular story) She says Mom had a rule I was only to get one present for Christmas while visiting the grandparents and other family members. My aunt said that mom had told them I had presents at home. Mom lied, manipulated the whole family and hid everything from me and everyone else. Not sure why my dad didn't speak up but he never did. I'm still finding things hidden in the house. Just found a whole huge folder of paperwork from my adoption with letters from my birth family that she never gave me. She wanted a boy, the adoption agency gave her a girl. She took it out on me instead of requesting the boy she wanted...

    When I Was 13 my Gram gave me a peach turtle neck sweater. Probably something from Tan Jay (a favorite brand of the older ladies), I thanked her, but never ever wore it or even tried it on. Gram died 11 years ago.....I wish I had of appreciated that sweater, and her, more. I miss her the most at Christmas.

    3 years ago (edited) Created by potrace 1.15, written by Peter Selinger 2001-2017

    Why? It's really sad. Perhaps you can buy something you really like as a present for yourself? I love presents, giving presents and receiving presents. It doesn't depend on the price, but the present must show the person made an effort. I give presents when I feel like, any day of the year, just for the sake of it. I do hate "impersonal" presents that show zero care and zero effort, and also the "compulsory dates", like Saint Valentine, when people compete to see who spends more money on s**t.
