Worst Ever Christmas Present

[Jasper]

I bet you were thrilled with "Lee Carvello's Putting Challenge" too

 

[obrienobrien]

as a former foster carer.... I now realise how lucky I was to wake up every Xmas morning with my own parents

a lot of kid's don't get this opportunity.... so gifts are really irrelevant on the whole scheme of things

My lass got a record player when she was a kid, with a load of rod steward and Elvia Presley albums , her ma n dad basically bought themselves a record player

My biological father got me a Rangers tracksuit. Prick.

My biological father did one when I was a baby. He turned up with a Fort and toy soldiers out of the blue one christmas not even knowing how old I was. I was 15 and was well past the toy soldier days. He offered to buy me something else but I declined and I've never heard from him since.

Kid our class at school got a microwave for his room.

Someone in my class got a fridge one year. He seemed quite happy with it.

Chuff me!
I know we have a bit moan on the SMB, and it’s fun sometimes to discuss really crap presents for which little to no thought was put in, but stories like this are heartbreakers to me.

I didn’t have perfect parents - who does? We’re all on-the-job-training! - and I was only in my thirties when I was orphaned, but I realize how lucky I was when the likes of you and a few others (@ouro IIRC?) tell about being abandoned by deadbeat dads.

My heart goes out to you lads and I hope you’ve grown stronger from the experience. Better yet if you’ve become committed dads and are fuelled by determination to be the best you can be for your own kids.

Hard to bear marra. Merry Christmas!

A blowjob off me grandad when I'd asked for a fuck

Wasn't all bad Tex. My mam re-married and my stepdad brought me up as his own. He was a good man and he was my dad. I'm 51 now and I'd like to think it makes me a better dad to my 2 boys.

Merry Christmas

A stereo when I wanted a megadrive.

Butt Plug

During the miners strike I got a plastic duffel bag with Esso or something on it. Girl aged 10. Baffled. What made it worse, I went swimming to the pit pond with it, and a lass laughed telling me their Mam had put it in as a raffle prize at the welfare. Mortifying at that age.

I remember about 20 odd years ago when toothpaste started coming out in those canisters with the button, rather than the standard tube. Made a passing comment about them to my mam when we were in asda one day, only ended up with one of the fuckers wrapped up on Christmas day.

You’d think they would have bought her records by the actual artists rather than their tribute acts!

Nor

 

[Amnorrageordie]

A Raleigh chopper. Every fucker else got a grifter.

 

[Keawyeds]

I suggest, feather touch.

You selected POWER DRIVE!

 

[Iballistic George]

When you were a kid?

A f***ing dartboard or a karaoke machine when I wanted a stereo system

Ungrateful shite should have got a clip round the lug hole

 

[Parkmaverick]

A buzzlightyear lunch box - I was 45 at the time

 

[The Raven]

I got a little plastic gun that fired a yellow disc thing. I was about 13 and way too old to be playing with toy guns, what the fuck was my auntie thinking.

..............Spent all day playing with it.
