Gift-giving is not everyone’s skill, but most adult humans can be sure about one thing: Trash is not an adequate present for any occasion. 

Sure, they used to say, ‘One man’s trash is another man’s treasure,’ but that’s not always the case when it comes to the red and green boxes wrapped up under the  Christmas tree.

Read on to see how this hobbyist turned the tables on some truly horrendous gifts by fabricating a tale of horrors that would make everyone think twice about their next Christmas present idea.
