Weird. I've only ever seen them the other way

I got this exact pair for my SIL two Christmases ago. She didn't like them at first, but they were such a hit at her Uni that she loves them now.

Not really goofy per say, but I found it hilarious that my girlfriend got me a boo of dad jokes as a joke present, but then my ex girlfriend (we have a kid together, we're on very good terms) also got me a separate dad joke book as a joke present as well.

They know me so well.

My 7 y/o got a yodeling pickle in white elephant Xmas. I can't wait for the batteries to run out. Lol.

I can never find a tape measure when my mom asks for measurements on something so she gave me a toilet plunger with one chained to it, a hammer with one chained to it, and one with a magnet in it that sticks on the fridge.

It seems the economy has hit my entire friend group to where spending money on a gift that is designed to be goofy didn't happen.

The goofiest gift was a candle with a snow globe on top. The snow globe had no liquid (seems it was made that way) and the candle was enormous and oddly scented.

A Battery Daddy, which stores batteries in a clear case and has its own battery tester inside. It'll probably end up being less goofy and more useful.

Maple bacon scented candle. It smells alright…I’ve gotten bacon scented/flavored stuff in the past that was awful. Back in the day my sis in law got me bacon flavored marshmallows that made our entire apartment smell like ass. Had to throw them away.

As a joke gift my mother-in-law got me a cartoon sized Star Wars pen and a Star Wars activity book. I'm 41.

I got an axe throwing game (plastic axes, so reasonably safe, but surprisingly fun). I would rather the axes weigh a little more, but as is it means it can be put out with other lawn games when families come over without being nervous about kids.
