The 2019 WTF did you get for Christmas thread! (horrible gifts welcome, and encouraged)

[TheGerman]

I told everyone I wanted nothing. I'm impossible to shop for (I specifically have to send people links to the exact thing, or don't bother) and I've been spending money like a drunken sailor this year getting all sorts of business ventures going. If I wanted it THAT bad, I'd already have it. Plus I doubt my list containing a KAC 6.5CM upper would get much traction.

To ensure I didn't get random things people thought I'd like (like in previous years where I got grunt style stuff with punisher skulls and shit all over it lol WTF) I called a Christmas gift amnesty with family this year; you dont buy me anything, I dont buy you anything. Nieces/nephews got savings bonds put into their treasury accounts instead of buying stupid shit they won't play with a month from now. Their parents buy them too much dumb shit anyways.

So outside of legit Bayern Munich training jacket that my wife figured out, I just enjoyed Christmas. I did have the weirdest shit happen at dinner where a friend, who is a known quantity for having a different 'long term girlfriend' every 2 weeks decided that he wanted to skype some random chick he really likes (and has gone on 1 date with) in the middle of dinner, look at me, and tell me hes going to marry this girl to only get a look from me that made the chick all of a sudden have something else to do....Christmas was Christmas.

But...what did you get? And we are encouraging horrible gifts - may even give away some PMAGS for a winner or something.

 

[QuickNDirty]

I got an mtech m378 just after my old Kershaw decided it needed the ability for the blade to flip backwards past the liner.

And a little screwdriver multi tool thing.

And a non adjustable chair for my office to replace the old chair I've been using since i got it out of my grandfather's office when he died nearly a decade ago.

And a bottle of buffalo trace.

Can't complain!

 

[USSRangerSM]

My wife’s mom made a calendar for our daughter of her and her newborn, She messed one up so she wrapped it up and gave it to me...

 

[Redmanss]

I got a stripper, just it's the only kind that saves a man money.

 

[Bender]

Mini 1911

Shortwave pocket radio

SOC shirt

And Gulf Charter fishing trip, as well as time to come visit away from Cold AF Wyoming.

My best present was a surprise (not a baby lol) I’ll have to wait to explain after the new year, but it caught me blindside. Sooo. Great year.

 

[Leland22]

Was talking to the Wife about a month ago about getting a nice" down "hunting coat,because mine is falling apart..so she got me a nice wool camo coat..(wool makes me itch like hell)
Thanks Babe...

 

[rtB]

I got a really nice pair of hiking socks from my mom. Except they are women's medium. I don't care that they're women's ( they're socks ) but they're about half as long as my foot.

 

[mattharper]

My wife found a guy that does metal work and had this eagle made for me. Even has my badge number in it. After a decade and a half with a car for an office, I've finally got an actual office with quite a bit of wall space. She knows well what my team means to me and came up with this one on her own. Speechless is what I was. And the pic under it is my little girl wearing my old vest, standing in the door of my work truck when she was 9 or 10. That thing had to weigh almost as much as she did and was hanging down to her knees. That pic and frame was her gift to me. I am a lucky man...

 

[FatBoy]

Got exactly what I wanted. Being married 26 years has many advantages. One being we know we can't buy each other shit anymore because we buy what we want throughout the year. We have a mutual agreement that unless we send a link, it don't get bought.

I will NEVER make three trips to the truck to bring all my highpower shooting kit to the firing line again!

 

[TheBigCountry]

My MIL got me this gag gift game of a bear Target with this pop-pump-gun that shoots foam balls. I guess the premise is you are supposed to shoot the little foam balls into/at the bear? Well, me being a giant ass kid found out within 5 seconds it’s so much more fun shooting said foam balls at actual people, especially when they aren’t paying attention.

I haven’t seen the damn thing since we bright it home.

I got the same thing but mine's a duck target. The bear was sold out.

 

[chevy_man]

A gaming headset so my wife doesn't have to listen to COD or Forza.

Jokes on her, as my old headset died and took all the fun out of talking shit on xbox live. Now I can tell all those kids to go fuck themselves and she'll still have to listen to me act like a 12 year old talking shit.

I play about an hour or two a week in the winter. Don't ever turn it on in the summer. So not the most useful thing but something I hadn't bothered to buy myself.



We shall see what sunday brings. I'm thinking my BIL got me a new leatherman wave since I lost mine in a field at the SD farm, and don't feel like driving 12 hours to look for it. No idea what my Dad got me, but I'd guess either a knife or EGW rail.

I got the BIL a survival kit for his new zodiac. An 18" Kershaw camp knife and a bottle of whiskey. Figure when he sinks the boat in the missouri he can build a lean-to and get drunk waiting for rescue.

 

[Bayoubigcat]

Wife got me a hoe...a hoe to keep in my truck...a truck hoe.

Literally a truck hoe, to pull shit out the bed so I don’t have to climb in.

Oh, and my Brother (in Arms) slapped a “Slut Bus” bumper sticker on the tailgate as we left for home. Didn’t notice till we got home 4 hours later.

 

[BytorJr]

I got a Dwarf Alberta spruce Christmas tree. Yes...a Christmas tree for Christmas. I'll plant it somewhere in the yard and call it wonderful. Then I won't get another one - I killed the one last year with root rot..

 

[Snuby642]

I got ammo.

 

[Sniperwannabee]

I got ammo.

people say I’m hard to shop for?? I always tell them to just buy me ammo, I super easy 9mm 223 308 6.5 easympeezy

Yep, another electric chain saw.

[Seed tick]

A half box of .25 automatic ammo from my brother in law since he knows”I shoot” I don’t have a fucking .25!!!

 

[zeroz]

Not to many horrible gifts here. WTF. Here ya go. My aunt, bless her heart always gets me something. I help her out when she needs it, put a new floor in her basement earlier this year. She gives me this big fucking pewter key with my name engraved on it. What the fuck do you do with a big pewter key besides dumpster it or throw it at some asshole on the highway? But its got my name on it!

The old lady knows she can't buy for me, for all the same reasons mentioned above, so she got me the bug a salt 3.0. Thing stings at point blank range. No doubt it will lay waste to some flies come spring, dog better watch it too! Good job girl. Never would have spent $50 on this but its cool to have. She's figuring out how to buy for someone that buys what they want all year.

 

[remmynikon.308]

i got a bottle of beard cream

 

[Redmanss]

i got a bottle of beard cream

Last year I got a shaving kit from the grandkids (they picked it out), but I've had a beard their whole lives and have zero intentions of ever laying a blade to my skin again. It was obviously rapidly donated.

Maybe they are suggesting you do a bit of Manscaping....

[BKSSNIPER]

bought myself new BCM lower and upper which will be assembled when the stamp comes back. ?

 

[Bender]

Man I wish! Just slide, slide release, trigger, mag release and magazine holding fake boolits works. Totally useless but cool, just like me.

 

[Marinevet1]

I got a Terrapin X, and a Kestrel 5700 elite with link...........not sure I'm smart enough to get all this set up...........

I am a woodworker. I built a rubber band Gatling gun for dad one Christmas - some pink flamingos for targets (inside joke).

Within 10 minutes he was shooting mom.

I think it was because he had to set up the flamingos. Mom had an automatic "reset".

 

[Jscb1b]

A half box of .25 automatic ammo from my brother in law since he knows”I shoot” I don’t have a fucking .25!!!

Go buy a .25.

 

[ColdBore375]

If it's under a grand and I want it, I just go buy it, so I asked for nothing. I got nothing. I couldn't be happier.

 

[fxdrider]

Wife asks me what I want for Christmas. I know we can't afford a new $4500 custom rifle, so I answer practical. Told her I need new socks and underwear.
She gets me a pack of 12 pairs of socks. All good.
She gets me a 5-pack of boxer briefs. All good.
I take a shower and put a fresh pair-o'-the brand spankin' new undies, finished getting dressed, and go about by business.
3 hours later, I gotta pee. I stroll up to my toilet, lift the seat, unzip the jeans, and look for the fly-hole in the new briefs.
And I'm feeling around looking for the hole and I think, "WTF? Did I put 'em on backwards?" I check for the label to see if it's in the front and nope - it's in the back where it's supposed to be.
I'm thinkin' "these M-Fers are defective! Hope she's got the receipt".
So I finish my mission (in a much more troublesome and complicated fashion than usual - thanks to the "defective" undergarment). I then check the rest of the newly acquired skivvies to make sure they're not defective - and sure enough, the other 4 pair are hole-less too! Holey-sh*t, Batman!? Is this some kind of practical joke?
I then decide to visit my internet search guru, Bing - and see what Al Gore's Illustrious interwebs have to say on the subject. To my shock and horror...fly-less mens underwear is actually a thing! I can find articles about this dating back to around 2009! What in the 7th Circle of Hell is THIS new evil? Are they trying to make men have to squat to pee? Is this part of the insidious plot to rid the world of all masculinity (both toxic and otherwise)?

No way I'm having any of this, so I head to a local dept. store to get myself a pack of actual MEN's underwear, and don't ya know - 2/3's of their stock is this same abomination of man-shaming nonsensical concoction. With no indication on the package of the surprise contained therein. The only code words I could find on any packaging that might indicate the contents were of these abominations were the words "performance pouch".
Seriously?

So far I've asked three of my friends if they've heard of such nonsense, and they all looked at me like I'd lost my mind. I hope so. In fact I hope I wake up and this has all been just a bad dream.

These could be work out briefs? Almost all of the supportive workout briefs are fly-less but they aren't meant for daily wear. Personally, I like the old Under Armor 6" w/fly but they don't make them anymore.

So, you think she's sending a message? If so, what could it be ?

 

[Wssickta]

I have a few pair of they fly less and they suck

 

[fxdrider]

What indeed.

I have a few pair of they fly less and they suck

Yeah, I'm definitely not a fan.

 

[DRAM40A1]

My wife bought, with my money, two Harley Davidson shirts. I bought myself a 20” JP Enterprise 308 barrel. Now, I have to get another upper and handguard!

 

[Heretoimproveforhunting]

Also, picked up a TT525 Gen 3xr ?

Yeah over the fence vs. through the gate is total BS.

 

[Middle Man]

I grew up a Star Wars fan, watched the movies as a kid in the 1980's and read quite a few of the books that were published in the early 1990's. Now in my 40's I enjoy the series to be certain, but I don't Star Wars all the things... So my mother gifts me some random Star Wars themed novelty junk almost every year. There have been a couple of Star Wars theme neckties, a Darth Vader kitchen apron, R2D2 oven mitts, light saber BBQ tongs, a light saber pizza cutter, a light saber spatula and various Star Wars themed Christmas ornaments. Over the years most of the items have been either recycled at White Elephant/Dirty Santa parties or just trashed (all Chinese made novelty junk).

That's no moon....2019's installment: tempered glass Death Star "cutting board" now reloading bench decoration.

Ask her to buy you some underwear from Duluth
They still make decent men's underwear.

I got a Milwaukee pack out bottom box and a trip to the er because my youngest found something sharp. Oh the wife passed out from blood and hit her head. It was fun none the less.
