Ooooh I like this thread.
I've gotten quite a few not so thoughtful presents in the past. You open it and you're like, "Uhh thanks, since when did I need a briefcase?" I mean you're appreciative that they made the effort to get you something, but the lack of thought in the gift itself..geez. Sometimes it seems like you're receiving something just so they can say they got you something.
Sometimes you hype yourself up for the gift exchange because you knew for damn sure you're getting them something they want but you open yours and it's like an erection gone limp..y'know?
Either way, a gift is a gift, it's just sometimes it makes you wonder if they knew you at all...or if they even listen to you...
