Holiday gifts you DON'T want to receive.
What are some holiday gifts that you DON'T want to receive this year? Why don't you want them?-----------------
Yet another ugly holiday sweater?
A new pet you have to take care of?
A "fruit" cake?
Tapes, VHSs, DVDs, Vinyl, CDs, Cartridges, etc. ?
A scale?

One Christmas I received a multi-tool for Christmas from my aunt. I haven't touched it since that day. Shows how much my aunt knows about me.
I have one of those. It's really heavy and came with a thick leather case for carrying it on your belt. I rarely use it as well.
I don't want to receive another bj from my cousin
it was an awful experience

Not a problem.
They're drawing straws in your family this year. 
oh no
Was it one of these: www.dyson.com/hair-care/dyson-…
-underwear, especially underwear that's not in some form of sealed packaging, as it very likely belonged to someone else who has very likely used it for their private moments, on top of the likelihood of it not being be in my size
-gift cards to shops I don't visit (and there is a lot)
-anything with an expiration date on it, as I can assure you that it will disappear by the end of that day
-jewelry. See above
-hands-free segways (known as "hoverboards" to the uneducated)
-video games, not just because of how picky I am toward them, but because of the likelihood of me already having it if it's something I wanted
-computers. If it's not the strongest one in the market, I'm not interested
-cellphones. See above
-furniture. There's hardly any room here as it is
-TVs. I hardly touch the one I already have
-animals (pets). I dunno, it just doesn't sound right to have an animal as a gift of any kind
-art supplies. See "video games"

"underwear that's not in some form of sealed packaging"
So it's been "gently used".
A mug, generic-looking planner, and scented hand sanitizer. I have too many.
Coffee cups can be ok, depending on what's on them. I know some people who collect them for some reason.
I was gonna say socks since I have too many, but replacing some of the older ones with nice new ones would be great.
I just don't want anything gimmicky. Like don't get me a kitchen device that does just one thing, like a breakfast sandwich machine.

"a breakfast sandwich machine"
Is that like a grilled cheese machine? ...because I have one of those. lol
Nah that's a panini maker, right?
I mean the Hamilton Beach breakfast sandwich maker. That thing. Any sandwich it can make can be made with normal kitchen tools and only takes a bit longer. It's a luxury item that takes up space in a small kitchen like mine.

It's a sandwich grill - like this: www.houzz.com/products/contemp…
I assume I know what a sandwich grill is, but that link redirects me to a furniture store.
How weird...
It's November.
And... ?
It's not December, pal.
And for that you should be thankful.
That's true
Clothes. I don't need more clothes. I want something interesting, something to cherish.
Such as?
