Mabuhay at maligayang pag-alis sa Lemmy! ✈️


An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! 🇵🇭


Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

Today’s Ask PHlemmy: What’s the most useless gift you’ve ever gotten?

[–] omey@lemm.ee 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Gift of life. Chz.

2020 planner saka alarm clock na sira.

Ang daming beses ko rin nakatanggap ng alarm clock na sira. Uso ba to noon??

[–] omey@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Aw. At least ako once lang. Sa exchange gift sa xmas party galing yung sakin. Di ko naman alam kung kanino galing kaya hindi rin maibalik haha.

Daily Bread, siyempre. Hindi kumpleto taon na wala ako nakukuha na ganun.

Picture frame.

To be fair, mejo uso pa ang physical pictures nung niregaluhan ako nun, but I don't really display physical photos.

Technically hindi siya useless, pero niregaluhan ako ng bawang.

Nag-sort of white elephant exchange gift kami, bawal lumagpas ng Php50 yung gift so may nagbigay sakin ng bawang sa loob ng box ng Logitech mouse.

At di umabot yung price ng bawang, so dinagdagan niya ng barya pampuno sa kulang.

White elephant talaga ang best part para sa ayaw sa mga Christmas party. Ginagawa namin pang-asar yun sa mahilig sa party by giving useless gifts na nakakainis matanggap pero pasok naman sa theme.

Pero dun sa final na, dahil malaki ang budget, pinipili namin "ibigay" yung gifts na possibleng sarili lang namin ang makakaappreciate para pwede isteal at di masteal ng iba. Ang pinakanakakatawang part yung yung typical mag-isip, na magbibigay ng sa tingin nyang best gift possible pero laging pinagpapalit ng iba kasi pangit. Naalala ko may isang gift giver na umiyak dahil di na appreciate gift nya, pinagtawanan pa yung nakakuha. Secret naman kung sino nagbigay, kaso umiyak. Alam na.

Ako yung nagbigay ng 2nd worst gift. Gusto ko sana isteal kaso nakakatawa makitang naiinis yung ofcmate na kinakainisan mo, di ba? Bumili na lang uli ako for myself ng gift na binigay ko. Haayy...pre-pandemic memories.

Wireless mouse na need ng AA battery. Mukha pati pag one time bumagsak di na agad gagana.
