What gifts that you received for Christmas this year are already in the trash?

For me, there were several dollar store trinkets that already broke, and one toy for my kids that was a huge sparkly styrofoam mess waiting to happen, so I threw it out rather than curse anyone else with it.

My parents gave me one of those 2023 Guinness World Record book. I appreciate the gesture, but it screams "we didn't know what to get you, and there were a pallet of 'em at Costco". I can see the book's appeal for a child or teenager but I'M 37.

I'll be re-gifting it to my father in-law 😎 I'm 100% sure he'll love it.

Good pooping entertainment

Yeah, back in the days before smartphones the Guinness Book was a bathroom staple, along with several volumes of Uncle John's Bathroom Readers.

Better give it to him soon. 2023 is quickly being forgotten.

Ah, so you don't know what to get your father in-law.
