An old Aussie mate of mine has a birthday in November, I gave him an England rugby Jersey (it was 2003 and Jonny had recently done his thing).
Anyway got a xmas present through the post a few weeks later.
He’d wiped his arse with it, wrapped it up and given it to me for Xmas.

Poor postie, dealing with that stench

To be fair, he'd wrapped it in plastic and a ton of tape to remove the stench.
As disgusting as it was, I did have to commend him on it.

You straight up deserved it, but as @MN5 not really fair on the postie.

In the early 80s I got a video game for Xmas. One of those cool ones where it takes about an hour to load via a tape deck and you play as a “tank” ( basically a square with a gun on the end ) and try and shoot other tanks.
All well and good but we never actually had a computer to play it on. I spent all summer looking longingly at the case and imagining how exciting it was to play.
This is the game here.
I really missed out as you can see. The brilliance of the graphics is matched only by the amazing sound effects.

Soap on a rope and a wash cloth from my Nana. She was Scottish. Perhaps some bearing.
Scrubbing the back of your neck until it’s red raw is something that’s expected of you if you’re Scottish, so that’ll be why.

Fun ways to pass time
#1) Fill out ESTA form for whole family in order to transit through an American airport.
#2) Fill out NZeTA form (+ pay tourist tax) for whole family to visit NZ, of which 3 of the 4 are NZ citizens (but don't have NZ passports - expensive & time-consuming to send the documents to London...) -
So I don't expect I will get shit from my partner for the toilet seat in future after she gave me a Puck Sucker for Xmas.
Not what you dirty bastards were thinking...
A puck sucker is an electronic gizmo that does what its name suggests it seals around your portafilter and vacuums out your puck thus saving you the incredibly difficult and onerous task of knocking the puck out into a knock box.
I like gizmos and coffee was I think her thought process but when she saw the reality, I think she was already a bit embarrassed.
That embarrassment turned up the volume when she realised that she'd bought the wrong size puck sucker for my portafilter so it wouldn't fit so although you could activate it, there was no seal and thus no suck.
Her face dropped and she said, 'Fuck I've bought you a dragon present, haven't I?"🤣
I did buy her a vacuum cleaner BTW - and she loves it - robot.
One of the other things I got her was a gin advent calendar, so she drowned her disappointment by sharing with me 24 gins from round the globe.

@dogmeat I love my coffee machine which does all that for you. Absolutely shit for frothing milk (we brought a Kmart special that is better) but as we drink black coffee, who cares. I press My Espresso (set for how I like it) twice, one double espresso - lovely.
