Just as it says on the tin - have you ever gotten... weird gifts? Either for the holidays, your birthday, or other major or minor event? Do you keep them - or use them if they're something that can be used? Or do they end up getting returned covertly or left to gather dust?
I ask because it has more or less become a family tradition to always try to include one joke gift on Christmas and the like. Such gifts have included a coffee mug shaped like a toilet (no, I'm drinking hot chocolate out of it, I don't care how funny it'd be, Mom) and another mug that has a little snowman that'll kick mini marshmallows into your drink.
Just recently, I got a hot dog toaster. Not entirely sure it's a joke gift or just a weird gift. You put two buns and two hot dogs into it and it'll toast them for you. I just got it and... I'm kinda tempted to give it a try, at least. Which is more than I can say of toilet mug.
Anyone else ever get weird or otherwise questionable gifts?
