#1 Baby clothes 1 month after a miscarriage. And yes, they knew all about it.

And it wasn’t the first time. My fave was the advice to follow so I didn’t do it again. Um no.

View more comments #5 One Christmas long ago, I was a happy girl with a boyfriend I adored. He told me he wanted to marry me but nothing was official yet.

He came over unexpectedly as we were just hanging with our own families that year. I could tell he was super nervous but had no idea why. Well, since I was saving myself for marriage and unbeknownst to me, he was seeing a former girlfriend for sex.

My present that year was she was pregnant, she was keeping the baby and she wanted them to get married. They did and got divorced.

Ho! Ho!

Plus I'm dyslexic and partially deaf...

Report Final score: 5points Fandomaniac_ POST Carol Emory Carol Emory Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 10 months ago Had a friend that got that for a present. She spent the first 10 years of her life in an orphanage in India before being adopted by a couple from the USA.

She had a British accent and the kids teased her for it. Some Americans can be really cruel towards people they perceive as non-American.

The mug outfitted with a golden ring-shaped handle, accented by a large, clear crystal. You held the cup by putting your ring finger through the ring.

It was made to look like you had a big engagement ring on. The boyfriend who gifted it to me thought it was hilarious...me not so much.

2 2points reply #14 When I was a child, I made the mistake of telling my grandmother I liked owls, and that is what I got for Christmas from then on-things with owls on them. You name it, there was some version of it somewhere with owls on it. The weirdest, when I was about 11, was a roll of paper towels.

Report Final score: 3points yellowphantom POST Carol Emory Carol Emory Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 10 months ago My mother loved owls until she got them as gifts constantly. She was so overrun with seeing them every day, she soon grew tired of them.

Murphy POST Carol Emory Carol Emory Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 10 months ago As I said in an earlier post, my father always got presents he thought we'd want based on the girl/boy factor. The year he gave my mother a hand held vacuum was the last straw for her and she stomped to her room slamming the door shut.

I explained to my father that his presents were very stereotyped and that he needed to choose gifts based on the person and their likes. The next year my mother got pampering gifts, my sister got power tools and I got a Tyco Race Track. 4 4points reply View more comments #16 My mother bought my sister down winter coats for each of her family.

My family, a cheap $1 barbie that broke on contact, a used electric knife with moldy dried meat still on it, and for my son, a t-shirt my mother found in the road with asphalt in it in a walmart bag. She didn't wrap a single gift. The knife at least had a box.

Her comment about the t-shirt, "Here, I found this in the road and you're so good at getting stains out!". I'm the young child, obviously not the favorite!
