YOU BASTARDS!!!!
From CNN.com:
Half of Americans say they re-gift
POSTED: 2:33 p.m. EDT, October 5, 2006NEW YORK (Reuters Life!) — Wrapping up that unwanted picture frame from last Christmas and giving it to someone else as a gift might not be as taboo as it once was, according to a study released Wednesday.
The survey of 1,505 American adults, conducted by market research firm Harris Interactive, found that over half of the respondents admitted to “re-gifting” with passing on gifts becoming a far more common and acceptable phenomenon.
In fact 78 percent of consumers who were polled felt that it was acceptable to re-gift some or most of the time.
Nancy Wong, a spokeswoman for Harris Interactive, said she was surprised by the number of people who admitted to re-gifting.
“It’s not something I’ve thought about and when I saw that nearly half had done it — 52 percent have re-gifted and or would re-gift — it’s quite a significant number,” Wong told Reuters.

Ok, so that means that five our of every ten of my gifts was originally someone else. You all suck!

Hey Marcos, you know that fruitcake I gave you the Christmas before that?
Yeeeaaahhhh….that one, too.
I knew it!!!!! it tasted so dry and chalky…
Wait, I think the year before that…I actually did give you chalk.
Ohhhh!!!!! All this time I thought it was a really old Tootsie Roll!!!!
Eew, I bet it tasted awful. Sorry, man.
Actually when I first saw it I didn’t think it was a Tootsie Roll…I don’t even want to tell you what I thought it was, it would be inappropriate…
