I don't know if the sharpie would stay between washes, but if nothing else, kudos to the person behind the Fortnite shirt for a pretty reasonable hand drawn approximation of the logo. The gift may be cheap, and going to someone who doesn't play the game, but you have to appreciate the effort.

[@RealRexRiplash]

The shower curtain is amazing because not only is it furries, but: -All of the characters are male. All of this is gay yiff. -All of the faces belong to somebody giving or receiving a violent reaming -A couple of them are licking paws/feet This also means that somebody this person knows, very likely a family member, was aware they're a furry. They then decided a cropped yiff curtain was the best gift. If this was from a family member, this individual has possibly the most tolerant parents in the observable universe.

[@La_Foi]

Oh so that the op was a furry interesting..

[@brodytaylor8016]

Fun fact. this shower curtain was also custom made. I looked for it online (simultaneously ruining my search history) and it doesn’t exist. therefore providing that this shower curtain was custom made by the family member who got this.

I would wear that shirt for years, until I finally wore it out. I never could imagine that one of my favorite shirts (that I had a lot of memories in) would end up on here. I’m devastated.

[@TheBluestflamingos]

All those gamer gifts are so passive aggressive. The joke on almost all of them was ragging on them for not spending enough time with their family that assumes that their nieces/nephews/children/etc are avoiding them because they're addicted hobbies, instead of the much likely reason that they find their family members passive aggression exhausting. Of course they don't want to hang out with you. Seems like you like to belittle their hobbies and trash talk them for having trouble socializing. As a kid who grew up with undiagnosed anxiety, it really salts my apples to see people being shitty to kids that they haven't even attempted to understand or accommodate.

[@musicbyella3769]

(the eye contact one especially irks cos a lot of “gamer issues” like no eye contact, obsessive hobbies, struggling w small talk are just autism traits. and yeah, no shit if you treat your kid like that they don’t want to spend time w you)

What made that Just Dance collection funny was that in 2020 they got a Wii version after getting the Switch versions for previous years. I think Just Dance is one of the few games that was still being brought to the Wii.

[@OaksCU1]

Yeah, what platform they got the games for is really confusing. Maybe they were late to getting a Wii U, so they didn't get one for it until the 2016 one, or they got the wrong one because this person never got a Wii U and they got a game for the Wii again the following year. Upgrading to Switch in 2018 makes sense, but I can't get my head around the 2020 Wii one. They got it for Switch 2 years in a row so it probably wasn't a mistake like it could've been with the Wii U. Only reason I can think of is that they got it for "old time's sake", the 2020 Just Dance was the third last game ever to be published on Wii from what I can find, at least so far. Either that or they were out of Switch games and the Wii one had to do.

[@periwinkuru]

OP here, I actually asked for 2020 because it was about the very last Wii game. Doesn't make my collection less excessive.

[@exzisd]

@@periwinkuru Nice. I figured it was either an accident from a well meaning parent/grandparent, a purposeful switch up for the family who were used to the Wii motes for playing together, or because it was one of the last games. I MAY be wrong but I believe it was one of the last Wii U games perhaps only followed by Shakedown Hawaii which is on a lot of platforms and a great Super Nintendo Style GTA game from Vblank who made Retro City Rampage. Seeing all those games makes me want to give one of them a change I've never played.

My Christmas was filled with people just ignoring the useful clothing, gift cards, or university stuff I asked for and getting me spicy snacks instead. Because, I ate hot sauce when I was 8 years old, so I'm the hot sauce kid, even though I'm 30! They also continued the oh, g-d why is this a tradition massacre of getting me a useless iPhone gadget I never wanted nor have any use for. The first year, it was a Tile, the second year it was a double-ended iPhone charging chord for cars where the wire is surrounded by bungee chord rather than plastic, and this year it's a remote charging disc. To be fair, I very passive-aggressively gave gifts this year. My family, all independently, spent the year screaming at me about the fact I try to get them personalized gifts based on their personalities and wish lists, demanding just gift cards instead. One family member demanded "smoker stuff" and so I got him a bunch of those really tacky spice blends that are like "Johnny Calibre's Moose Nuke" and it's a spice mix with a cartoon moose in camo, holding a shotgun on the front, and he actually found them charming.

I've been given many shirts as gifts over the years from people with the best intentions but the wrong style. I think, outside of stylists or very close friends, it can be really difficult to clothes shop for most people in general. I'd rather give someone a gift card to a store they like although then it doesn't have as much meaning. Cash is the best gift card.

[@Soggy5271]

5:56 I have one of those but as a torch, they are actually really cool

[@KombatGod]

Ok I had to check what is the Carpool Karaoke game really about... and yes, there's not much more than that. You spin a spinner and depending on where it lands you either have to sing a song in a specific way or do some dance move. The card doesn't tell you the song but there's a list of 50 suggested songs on the instructions. The only additional thing is that the spinner can land on "guess it" and that has trivia questions about singers that were on Carpool Karaoke. Here's the best part though: once per game a player can post their performance on social media with the hashtag #carpoolkaraokegame and get extra points. Yes, that's in the rules.

4:18 I had this way back in like 2014 because I was a big Angry Birds fan. If I remember correctly it was just space facts with Angry Birds characters inserted into them. Did you know that Angry Birds also had an official collaboration with NASA? Because I do. I saw with my own eyes at Kennedy Space Center, also around 2014.

[@scarlettNET]

Knowing the person in the video got a gift that's eight years old makes it even worse omg lol

[@RealRexRiplash]

Angry Birds Space features levels unlocked by hitting probes hidden in certain stages, all of the real-life satellites or rovers.

As well as the thousands of people in all geeky groups I'm in and chat with online. Clearly, Jack is not aware of the cinephile underground. Lol

Exactly. I also don't want to search through a bunch of streaming services to find a favorite movie.

this has quickly become the highlight of every year also I was inspired by the father's day episode and got my dad a "dad by day, gamer by night" tshirt as he quite literally stays up on nights after my mum goes to sleep on his PS5. he found it hilarious and wore it to boxing day at my aunts. no one else but my sister got the joke lmaooo

having a rare moment of peace and clarity so i just wanna say how much i love this community. just a bunch of hilarious people connected by another hilarious person. i legitimately love all of you (in the broader sense, like loving humanity as opposed to loving you like close friends- two very different kinds of love but both equally valuable).

I took one look at the curtain and immediately knew that the artist they probably bought this from lifted all the expressions and faces directly from the smut they drew. I have no idea whether to pity the person who initially bought it with innocent thoughts or to applaud the evil genius who got away with giving a smut-curtain to their friend or family member.
