Whats the worst gift you've ever recieved?

One of my uncles usually makes all of his gifts. Majority of the time, they are actually pretty cool things like furniture, etc.

As much as I love the dude (I refer to him jokingly as "dad" as he's the closest thing I have to one and a mix up at senior night led to the announcer referring to him as dad)...he's also the one that has given me some of the worst gifts. My sister comes in as a close second.

One year my uncle made me a wind chime light reflector thingy? It was old Windows 95, Windows 98, and AOL disks tied with hot pink (I utterly hate pink...) string to a bolt.

This one wasn't so bad but was confusing. I got this weirdly wrapped thing that was super heavy for the size. It turned out to be a giant Folger's can that was full of pennies. Came out to about $33 in only pennies.

My sister gave me a blank greeting card with a picture of a flower and told me I needed to frame it. She didn't provide a frame.

She gave me this weird blue bendy guy figurine with a hook for a head that is supposed to hold your phone and let you hang it somewhere...but my phone wouldn't fit in it. She also gave me a whale cable holder thing. It was supposed to be for an Apple computer charger, then wrap the cable around the tail of the whale. I've never owned an Apple computer and it didn't fit my iPad charger or anything else.
