My mom got me one of those last year. Not only is it something I would never wear, she got me a size XXXL as if I am Ruben Studdard.

always gave my dad, my sister, and myself soap on a rope. It was some long running joke between her and my father but there was always a check for a couple thousand dollars so that made it a little better.

my dad would alway buy them 2 sizes too big. This had to be because of 1 of 3 reasons. Either he thought I would grow into them, bought them that big so that he could wear them as well, or he bought that size becaues they happened to be 1/2 price.

Spoiled because I would prefer my hunting boots to fit properly? Suck my 17ing balls and shut the 17 up.

Seriously.

Back Story: I've own a 3 story townhome with TONS of windows and they all have 6 inch window ledges, which are GREAT for decorating. Since I'm basically living the bachelor, decorating to me means bobblehead dolls, dvds, books, and other **** that I can't find space for. My bobblehead collection contains an Albert Pujols, Jim Edmonds, Dan Quisenberry, Brad Ausmus, Dwight Schrute.... and now, myself.

THIS is where she had the bobblehead made. She just had to submit two police style photos, one straight on head shot and one side shot.

As for why my eyes are closed and my tongue is sticking out... that's my "go-to" face whenever a camera comes up. I have one of those crazy girlfriends who take to many pictures... so after I smile a few times, I just pull out this face and the camera usually gets put up.

Strangest and most awesomest gift all at once!

from my Grandmother one year. It was two small boxes. I wasn't pissed off or upset about it as much as I was "What the hell is this?"

I'm just going to chalk that one up to Alzheimer's. Maybe I should be thankful that I didn't get a live cat wrapped up in a box.

has 10 kids. 27 grandchildren. 12 or 13 great grandchildren.

All of the males older than 12 get the same shirt every year, but she'll give 3 or 4 different colors so that they seem different.

What can I say though? I give my nieces and nephews savings bonds (3 boys and 3 girls).

My mother bought me a battery operated megaphone/loudspeaker. Huh? She said that she figured I could use it to shout at opposing teams fans while out tailgating or use it in the stands :( Poor mom doesn't even know what a first down is, so how could I jump her because she didn't know you couldn't take a freakin' megaphone/loudspeaker apparatus into a stadium!

Hey Barkman Turner Overdrive, you still got that XXXL Black Leather Sport Jacket?
If so, I want a Christmas present from you...I don't wear that size, but usually leather is cut smaller and may fit my big old frame! ha....but only if it is a sport coat, not a winter jacket.
But seriously, I'll give you a few dollars for it if it's practically brand new.</p>

My wife gave it to me as a joke, but it works. You simply blow into it, and it gives you a instant, accurate reading of your blood alcohol content.

Seriously, if you are looking to lose that megaphone, i'll gladly take it off your hands for a couple of bucks.

My worst gift was one my great aunt once gave me.... well I don't even know exactly what to call it. It was a set of pink girl pajamas that were one piece. top to bottom, solid pink... It would even cover your feet. I was about 8 years old. When I turned to my mom to see what I was supposed to do, she was already looking at me with her finger over her mouth telling me to just be quiet.

A breathalyzer? I got one of those bad boys from my girlfriend this year... and I love it. Now I know if I stayed under .08 and can still drive. But of course, the only thing me and my brother have used it for so far is to see who can get the drunkest. I love Christmas.

but that's ok. Except for not seeing my son every day, I'll be a lot better off with her gone.</p>
