Most useless gift

[cannongal]

Anyone else get something totally useless to them?  What is it?

I have a stocking that says, "no candy, just cash".  

Everything I got, I like very much, another year without a goat though  :(

I once got a pitcher from a girlfriend, she said it wasn't necessarily for filling, that it was art. It's true what they say about art being in the eye of the beholder. This thing is my most hideous possession. I think it's on a shelf in one of the guest rooms, if it is I will post a picture and you can see for yourself.

Art is very subjective  (at least that's what the artists I know tell me)  years ago,  I sold pottery at music festivals.    My biggest sellers were sage bowls and incense burners.   One fall, I was juried into an artists open studios event.  I brought bowls and mugs,  as well as a few incense burners that I had leftover from the summer.     Half way through the event,  some old guy picked up the last  burner I  had left, and said  " you should have made this look like celery,   it would sell better if it looked like celery "    yeah,   ok,  I'll get right on that. 

I wouldn't have minded the pillow so much,  it it had been locally made,  but it was made in china and she bought it at Walmart.    *shuddering *   I hate fucking Walmart.
