Has anyone ever gotten a lump of coal for Xmas

I got coal but also gifts. Once gave coal And other gifts and why did autocorrect change gave to have?
 
Maybe I need my meds rechecked again, but I'm thinking of taking kids presents and and leaving lumps of coal behind since they were naughty all yearr long with notes that if they been any naughtier they would have taken to my mountion and be roasted for my dinner... Signed Krumpus.😛😛😛
 
With the price of utilities these days I would gladly take the coal. 😛 Though it would be nice to get an upgrade and get a lump of uranium instead. Last's longer in the wood stove.

Why would anyone want such a filthy fossil fuel that can't be phased out of the energy market fast enough?🙄🙄🙄
 
I got a chunk of chocolate called "a lump of coal" once. I found some similar products online, but not exactly what I got.
 
I gave a lump of charcoal to my niece in her stocking when she was 5. this was 45 years ago. Her reaction was.............
 
A burning rock was probably a pretty cool thing when people first discovered it. My stove has coal irons, but I've never used them. It's been setup for wood the whole time.
 
I've been tempted to put some coal in the kids stockings along with the standard suffers to remind them that the threat of receiving coal is real.

"That would have been another present sweetie but, Santa didn't like that you hit your brother last week..."

If I just build in that deep, irresolvable feeling of inadequacy and sadness in my children, then they will excel in life! It sorta worked for me! 😛
 
when we were little, we got potatoes (from the St. Nick, not Santa - it's midwest thing) in our stockings but not coal.
