It's the inverse thread! XD
Things I don't want are jewellery, charcoal, rocks, food (although chocolates are okei), lottery tickets, and ... wow. I can't really think of anything else.
I don't mind clothes unless it's lingerie or something. >_> <_< >_>

I don't mind clothes unless it's lingerie or something. >_> <_< >_> For shame ::) I don't want clothes though. Gets old real fast, and I'd probably never wear them anyway. While I "have to" say I don't want money because it's unthoughtful blah blah blah I secretly do prefer it >_> No gift cards though, that's just a lame version of money with too many restrictions. Ah, who am I kidding, none of this matters anyway because my family doesn't celebrate Christmas nor have I received or given a gift for nearly a decade now :( |

Cash. Holy shit I hate people who give cash as a gift. It's insulting. I don't buy the "it let's them/me buy what they really want!" line.
Cash to me says you don't know me even remotely well, nor care to, to even be bothered to think about what I might actually like, and yet somehow feel obligated to give me "something". If you don't care then don't give me a gift, I'll respect you more.
I seriously hate cash(and gift cards! the spawn of hell that they are) as a gift ;0

I'd rather they give me that than anything I listed in my above post or other stuff I don't care about. I love it lots when I'm given the freedom to buy what I want! ^^ Screw the whole bit about how the thought counts! Gimme moneys! Gimme gift cards!!! |

Things I absolutely do not want for Christmas: Clothes, jewelry (save from one person), 'practical' gifts, and party food (not dessert or coffee) gift sets; the latter two being the 'all purpose cop out' gift options.
...I have never had an issue with receiving money as a present, however. Partially because I know I'm a nightmare to shop for if you aren't a mind reader or just don't flat out ask me.

Vouchers/gift cards. I much prefer the cash, because I can split it up however I want it (and I'm very difficult to buy for).
The other one is random "fringe" relatives (like my step-mums sons partner, for example) buying me presents - I honestly do appreciate the thought; but I'd rather they spend the cash on somebody they really know over me.

...Not that I get anything for Christmas anyways but...! I shall join in on this anyways. Clothes. I'm sick of getting clothes. That's all I ever get in life! X( (Am I THAT badly dressed?! [Let's ignore the fact that I get so many clothes presents that I stopped buying any for myself! :'D ]) Though I don't mind socks. Since the birds have apparently stolen each one from all my pairs.  I swear... even my friends don't ever try to figure out what I like. X( I also hate perfumes. Does anybody else get headaches from them? ...this Linguine looks so good... yum! |

I also hate perfumes. Does anybody else get headaches from them? I DO. I try to avoid the bloody perfume/cosmetics section of department stores but unfortunately, ALMOST ALL OF THEM HAVE THE GODDAMN SECTION RIGHT AT THE FRONT. Maybe they should just leave more empty room around it so I can easily walk away from the place. >_< Having noted this, I don't want perfume for Christmas either (not that I ever do). |

I don't want anyone to buy game music for me, because there's a strong chance I already have it.  |

My grandma always always always has to get me one terrible shirt that I never wear.
Without fail.
She knows I'm not going to like it or use it, that it does not fit in with my sense of style at all. That it has no practical use for me due to lacking a breast pocket (I need dem fings). But every year, without fail.
And it probably cost more than all my other dollar store K mart shirts put together, with irritates me no end.

Sounds like a great cache of cloth you have there.  Rip that shit up and use it for cleaning video game cartridges with alcohol. And other things. Everything. |

well, I usually send in a small list to my parents and they send a small list to me, so I'm usually fairly certain what I get. any suprise gifts next to that: almost anyting is possible, except live animals. and certainly not by snail-mail  |

Here's what I don't want for Christmas: I don't want to think of it as "the anniversary of the last time a woman had mistreated me". Seriously. Pick an awesome day to piss me off, Christmas is right up there with birthdays! I also don't want an apology for Christmas. Apologies piss me off; a little late to be patronizing me, dontcha think?! // I also don't want to buy a DS Lite with 2 DS games, a PS2 game, a glass cat figure and a heart necklace to be told that there's another man. -_-" Fucking slut, I want my money back. |
