Each year at my office we have a "White Elephant" gift exchange. People really go all out, finding something strange and obscure from their homes and wrapping it immaculately. Then, we play a game to exchange gifts, and everyone gets really competitive about it-that is until they find out what's actually in their gift box. Here are some of the highlights from over the years:
-This year I got a Pole Dancing "how to" book
-One guy brought in a pillow-from when his wife was SICK in the hospital with a horrible flu
-Toilet paper rolls that had gotten wet when a pipe broke under someone's sink
-An OLD bottle of dried up perfume
-Someone's dad's tighty-whiteys complete with "Skid mark" stains
-A box for a Wells Fargo tacky Christmas ornament-with NO ornament inside
-A realistic looking blue-jay bird figurine that sings "Zip-a-dee-doo-dah"
Those are the most "awesomely bad" gifts I've ever seen! |
