In Which I Realize I've Had It Too Soft

The Angry Professor has a Christmas quandary I've never had to deal with:

Suppose a member of your family sent (via USPS) a gift that you didn't like. Specifically, the gift was both inappropriate and offensive to you and your family. This person knew the gift would be offensive and sent it nonetheless.

Given that direct confrontation will not serve any constructive purpose, is it okay to pretend the gift never arrived?

I proposed regifting. To an enemy.
