A strange or unwanted gift that you discarded or regifted

  1. A box of royal bee jelly capsules
  2. A kids’ toy that was for someone much younger than me, even then
  3. An antique treadle sewing machine. Abandoned in the house I just sold.
  4. A metal conquistador, 40” tall, armored and helmeted, standing proudly, holding a spear in one hand, vertically with its butt end on the ground and pointed tip up, and the other hand in a fist on his hip, with elbow pointed outboard. It was a wedding gift, of all the silly ideas, and we had registered.
  5. A box of candy turds labeled “Assorted Darks and Lights”
  6. A DVD of the Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Phantom of the Opera movie. I watched it once and regifted it. No way in hell I would watch it again.

  9. An ugly clay bowl / pot that came in a beautiful Nordstrom gift box. It looked like an art project or primitive chamber pot or something. A wedding gift from out-of-town friends that we would have returned to Nordstrom if there had been one in our area.

  11. A v-neck sweater. I hate sweaters. Never wear them. And if I ever did, it would not be a v-neck, it would be a crew neck.
