Brian keeps trying to get me to tell my mom when I don't like her gifts, but I can't bring myself to do it. So the parade of terribles continues. The worst part? She likes to get things personalized with our names, so there is no re-gifting possible.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10908972808262043120noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21634138.post-1152284481521432762006-07-07T08:01:00.000-07:002006-07-07T08:01:00.000-07:00I must be one of the few that like those shirts. ...I must be one of the few that like those shirts. Maybe it's because I don't get many. Nobody ever travels in my family. I think the kids each have a shirt from Hawaii and that's it. Oh one from the Phillipines as well.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00488076014535020598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21634138.post-1152249203093519022006-07-06T22:13:00.000-07:002006-07-06T22:13:00.000-07:00I want one of those Badger shirts!

My parents love to travel and generally buy weird things.<BR/><BR/>Funnily though whenever my Dad goes to Poland I tell him to buy me a purse.

Someday the givers will be gone, the gifts will stop and even if you can never wear/use the things, you'll be glad to have them. <BR/><BR/>Besides, I think those t-shirts are both pretty cute.Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01593639955634717831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21634138.post-1152204859817770162006-07-06T09:54:00.000-07:002006-07-06T09:54:00.000-07:00I can totally relate to this.

The wife and I have received the world's ugliest t-shirts from every country in the world (the funny thing is that allt he t-shirts are made in China.) Finally, we forced them to stop. But now that they have a granddaughter, they're back to their old ways. I usually put the t-shirt on my daughter, snap a few photos, and then donate the t-shirts to Goodwill.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21634138.post-1152200825816698292006-07-06T08:47:00.000-07:002006-07-06T08:47:00.000-07:00If only my inlaws would not do that too - OR bette...If only my inlaws would not do that too - OR better - nothing - NO GIFTS.
