So this actually happened the Friday after Thanksgiving.
This year is the first year my family won’t be able to congregate for Christmas. So we agreed to do a “white elephant” at our Turkey Day because everyone and their SO’s would be there.
When this plan was discussed in the group chat I happened to be scrolling through reddit and saw a post talking about how “Bad Dragon” had an unusually large inventory.
Perfect! I thought. Itll be a great gag gift, and they make great toys, my whole family can’t be that prudish.
For context my family is usually very open with each other, very tight knit and loving family. That being said, I impulse bought, we aren’t THAT close.
The next day after my purchase my brother asked if we were doing real gifts this year and to my dismay the answer was a resounding yes.
Well the day came and everyone selected their presents. Before we opened my mother interrupted and told us about this game she found on the internet where you roll the dice and the number tells you to pass the gift whichever direction.
We opened our gifts and everyone was appalled at the tentacle Dildo.
I tried to defend it. It is a high quality Dildo, I figured one of them was cool enough to want it, its not like it was cheap.
My poor brother who always gets the short end of the stick kept repeatedly having this tentacle handed back to him. It felt like every other dice roll was “give brother the tentacle Dildo he is obviously uncomfortable being around.”
By the end of the game my mother stole it from him so he could have one of the other gifts.
It was a big misfire lololol.
Merry Christmas mom.
Tl;dr: I bought a gag gift that literally and unintentionally made almost everyone at the table gag or cringe.

The cost of a bad dragon takes it thoroughly out of “gag gift” territory. A cheap knob you get from Spencer’s is one thing but a three digit swirl pattern tentacle conveys a certain gravitas to the situation.
