Worst gift:  This year for Christmas, DW and I went to the ILs for Christmas Eve.  DW and I got a bag of candy!  DW's birthday is January 2nd, so we figured that MIL would make up for it then, since she was riding with us across the state line.  She didn't pitch in for gas or food.  When DW's birthday came around, she got nothing, as well.  We went to dinner for her birthday.  As the waitress asked how the checks would be split, MIL pointed to us and said, "These two are together.  I'm on a separate check."  What a b!tch!  What's even worse is that DW's younger sister got a car!  Aahhhh, this lady is the cheapest, cruddiest, most ungrateful, insensitive person I have ever met.

Worst gift:  I've been married for nine years, and have a 7 year old son.  I was pregnant with my second last winter, when my birthday rolled around.  I have dealt with many stupid, cruel, and just downright obnoxious things from my MIL and her family.  I believe one of the crowning moments happened when she decided to throw me a birthday party.  My DH lured me over to her house with the promise of a homemade lasagna dinner.  When I arrived, my DH and DS were there, in addition to my BIL and MIL.  MIL was slouched on the couch, and didn't bother to get up when I got there.  Both she and BIL had been drinking most of the day.  I was then instructed by her to remove the lasagna from the oven, as they'd been waiting long enough for me.  I put the paper plates around the table and removed the "homemade" lasagna (store bought, frozen lasagna for 2).  "MMMM, looks delicious."  WTF?!?!   She declined eating, as she was probably too drunk.  So, we all had a nibble, and then it was cake time.  The cake came from the grocery store.  It must have flipped inside the plastic container a few times, as I could see from the frosting.  "Happy birthday to me."  Now it was present time.  I got a beautiful pair of fuzzy pajamas, EXACTLY 10 SIZES TOO BIG!  I was pregnant, not morbidly obese.  You know, they make maternity clothes.  Needless to say, this was . . .
