It's that time of year where some people have to consider buying (and receiving) presents for/from those they're not that fond of. (Fortunately not a position I find myself in!)

Browsing through Black Friday deals at Boots, I thought "electric toothbrush could be really pointed as a Christmas present".

What might be some other gifts which have a nasty undercurrent?

I got a 'How not to be a Dick book' for someone once. I thought it was funny, unfortunately they were offended

I did think self help books

I had a therapist once, whose brother got him a book called something like "how to screw up your kid". It was evidence based, but what not to do. He loved it

Funny you should say electric toothbrush

I thought it would be a great Christmas present for one of my son-in-laws as he likes his teeth.

Apparently, I was trying to say his teeth need cleaning.

The next year I bought him a Lynx deodorant gift set

I once received a gift that was neither here nor there, but it became passive aggressive when accompanied by the giver's aggressive aggressive comment.

I felt similarly about her, but I wasn't that rude

I was given a book called “how to stop procrastinating” which given it’s 11 months on and I still haven’t read it was fair enough

Sometimes I think the cheeky rude Christmas cards come over much worse than the gifts!

I once got a subscription for a Teatox.

Marketed as a detox tool that promotes weight loss.

Key ingredient was senna. A box of laxatives would have been cheaper. Alternatively, they could have just written ‘you’re getting too doughy’ in my Christmas card and saved time

The closest anecdote that I can share for this thread is someone from work receiving vouchers for a "Whisky Tasting Tour".

He was a recovering alcoholic.

Not passive aggressive, but I quite like re-gifting presents that I've received, but aren't that keen on. It's better than them just gathering dust in a cupboard and the new owner will hopefully appreciate them
