34 ‘Fuck You’ Christmas Gift Ideas For The People You Really Don’t Want To Shop For
If you’re being forced to give gifts to someone you absolutely can’t stand this year, you might as well go all out and let them know how little you actually care about them! Reddit asked its users for the best “Fuck You” gift ideas and they definitely delivered.
1. A self-help book
ya know, a very specific kind of self-help book.
or some deodorant.
2. “World’s Okayest Boss” Mug
I gave my boss a “World’s Okayest Boss” Mug from http://www.worlds-okayest.com last Christmas because of a reddit post I saw. He thought it was hilarious but it wasn’t really a joke. He’s kinda like Michael Scott without being funny or loving.
3. Gift them dirty socks (again and again and again)
[My family did this to me when I was a child]
Gift wrap a pair of dirty socks. When they unwrap it and discard it, have someone else sneak off and rewrap them to sneak it under the tree again. 6 year old me began to cry after the 5th time that it was my turn for a present and I got dirty socks AGAIN.
4. A giftcard to a shitty place
A giftcard to a shitty place with a small, odd amount (i.e. a giftcard to Subway for $2.37).
5. Whatever they gave you last Christmas.
Whatever they gave you last Christmas, still unopened. Or opened and just blatantly and haphazardly rewrapped.
6. A locked box without a key

Next Christmas, give them a key but it’s not for that box.
7. A cheap perfume giftset
Those perfume/cologne giftsets that you get from the Dollar tree, Rite Aid, or Walgreens.
8. A gift for their child that’s difficult to assemble
A gift for their child that looks awesome, yet takes many, many hours to assemble.
9. A shirt that’s too small

10. A popcorn tin without the good flavors
Popcorn tin with all of the cheddar and caramel pieces already eaten.
11. Something useless with “sentimental value”
Give someone something totally useless, like a burnt-out lightbulb, and say it has sentimental value to a dead friend or family member. They’ll be annoyed by it, but will feel too guilty to throw it out.
12. A donation to an organization they hate
“A donation has been made in your name to” an organization they hate- Planned Parenthood, PETA, The NRA, The Trump Re-Election Campaign …

16. A Mumu
A mumu. About 4 months after they’ve given birth. I know this because my aunt did that to my mom after she had my sister. My mom cried for days.

Fifty dollars in one dollar gift cards.
18. Something they’re allergic to
My father once gave me a box of chocolates made with peanut butter.

19. A prank mug
This year I was assigned a co-worker I am not a fan of for secret santa. She’s one of those people that you can constantly hear talking throughout the office and she’s super nosy.
She was devastated when Trump became President and constantly went on about how much she hates him. I found the perfect gift.
I bought her the “I heart trump prank mug”. It starts out black and when coffee warms the cup, it reveals the prank. I doubt it’ll last long before she breaks it, but I can’t wait to see her face when she gets pranked.
20. Trash bags labeled as storage bags
My grandmother gave me a box of trash bags and labeled then as storage bags in the card.
Thanks for telling me all my stuff is garbage, grandma.

21. Sugar free gummy bears
Haribo sugar free gummy bears. I don’t think they,re being sold anymore but there are gummis that will have the same effects.
(Editor’s note: sugar free gummies will give you the shits)
22. Actual shit
I remember when I first started watching The Osbournes tv show that someone had insulted Sharon Osbourne to the point that she decided to send them a lump of her own shit elegantly wrapped up in a Tiffany box. I’m both disgusted and impressed!
23. An accessory to something they don’t own
An accessory to something they don’t own.

30. A low quality gift

31. Something that does good for the world
When I have to buy a gift for someone who supports ideas I find odious, I usually purchase either a spice set from Penzey’s or I buy an item whose proceeds benefit the ACLU or Planned Parenthood. It’s super subtle, yet it does some good in the world and/or makes me feel better.
