“Unwrapping Regret: 35 Hilariously Horrible Gifts That Came with a Side of Debt!”
2. A book by Andy Rooney. I thought Andy Rooney was funny when I was 8, not 18.
3. A card. The front said “Happy birthday! Don’t get excited, there’s no money in here.” I opened the card. There was indeed no money in it and the printed message said “what are you looking in here for, we said there’s no money in here.”
I got a better gift from the damned house mother which was one of those crappy sheet cakes from a grocery store.
My family wondered why I never went home when I was in college.
My dad didn’t get me a graduation gift, but was kind enough to bring me along the next day to buy his third wife a diamond necklace in my college town.
Three years earlier he told me he was sorry about my struggle to pay tuition and then bragged about spending $12,000 on an engagement ring.
Oddly enough third wife and I are super close now and the jewelry is getting willed to me. Although I fully expect him to steal it for wife #4 if he outlives her. He’s a scumbag.
My aunt hates me and my sister, she would give us gift cards to pizza hut. This was the s**t we didn’t have a lot of money and could afford it as a family. We would go use these gift cards she would give us but they would be the change from her using it. So it would have like $3 on it or something. Fooled me once with that, I had to call my parents to come pay for the pizza my dumb 10yr old a*s bought with the card thinking it was $50 like it said.
