wishing she had a clever tagline

So someone bought me a pair of underwear for Christmas. It was a sweet kind, unexpected gesture and I was so confused when I was given them that all I could say was, "Thank you," and pretend to be pleased. The problem is: they're horrible and nothing I would ever, ever wear unless I were under threat of death for some convoluted reason and then only if I were permittd to remove the chain. But because they're underwear the store won't take them back or allow me to exchange them for something less aesthetically horrifying. Which irritates the crap out of me because that money is gone forever simply because some people are too stupid to think things out.

And so children, today's Season of Gift-Giving lesson is: if I can't take it back, please don't fucking give it to me.
