Re: Share your holiday swag!

Today I'm going out to my grandmas house to get the stuff I didn't get yesterday, mostly going to be clothes I think

I know this sounds kind of asanine, even though I don't mean it to squid, but are they currently in multiple pieces?

If so, that's one shitty christmas right there. Hope things start going better soon!

$50 in Best Buy gift cards, $85 in Movie Theater gift cards, $50 Gamestop gift card, $50 Kohls gift card, $20 Spencer's gift card, and $50 in Barnes & Noble gift cards.
Kickassia, Suburban Knights, That Guy With The Glasses vol. 1 and 2, Afro Samurai director's cut, and Voyager season 1 and 2, and the final book in the Inheritance series..... Inheritance (wtf, really, no other good names?).
Clothes. LOTS of clothes. Mostly nice shirts. Because apparently me not wearing one of the 10 I have more often than once or twice a month or whenever we eat at a restaurant means I don't have enough.
Also, lots of candy. Chocolate Malt Balls, chocolate covered cherries, and a BIG bag of Three Musketeers were my favorites, though there were also a bunch of random assortments from the grandparents.
Oh, and I got Red Dead Redemption: GOTY for 360 and Battlefield 3 for PC.

25$ Visa, 25$ in cash, 25$ walmart card... the MASH Martinis and Medicine collection, chocolate, cookies, a shirt, a handheld game thing, a necklace, the 3DS I mentioned a while back... a set of Jewelry pliers, two fedoras, a cookbook, and a book on using a sewing machine.

I'm pretty sure that's it.

Bunch of candy, socks, new pair of hiking boots, and the usual stocking sundries. My mom got me a whole bunch of those little metal puzzles that you're supposed to separate, since I collect them. A little too easy though since I already solved them all, almost haven't figured out how I got the one apart to put it back together. My little brother surprised me and actually had a gift for me this year. He's the type who will forget to get you presents till six months later, though he does put a lot of thought into them. This year he got me a bottle of Glenfiddich 21 years. All in all I think it was a pretty good year.

Well a tumour had to be removed and is presumably still way off in London, but I don't really consider that thing a genuine part of my mother, so yes and no. My worry-meter has been going up and down quite sharply with each bit of news over the last two weeks. But having visited her in hospital just today and seen her get out of bed to dance to some upbeat 80's rock; I'm feeling a lot more secure about it all. It makes me glad about modern medicine and the people who practice it. This same situation occurring to someone just fifty years ago, would be fatal.

I'll get to cook that full family Christmas dinner yet.

Obligatory thread necroing go!

So, I probably has had some of the craziest Christmas due to size of swag :S My swag equates to a set of microphone/headset combo and a artbook that my sibling has managed to LOSE somewhere in the hiding it before the season. On the other hand, all dat steam sale swag kinda counts. Delicious DLCs, Natural Selection 2, Garry's Mod and Oblivion :3

Also, these two were joint prezzies with/for the madre), Once upon a time, Lost final season, Sherlock Holmes movies 1 and 2, pajama pants, a hoodie outfit, LEGO minis, Squinkies, a Snoopy, a Johnsonville snack package, Samurai Warriors figures, an Arkham Horror expansion, a new video camera (also a 'family' present), and a ring from the Cuddlebuddy. (Not *the* ring, mind you, but *a* ring.)

Plus went to see Les Mis and also did pre-registration for Anime Boston.

Re: Share your holiday swag!

I got a flask that's currently filled with tequila, some sponge candy that I've already demolished, a new pair of shoes and a jacket, a fuckton of money, an ancient comic book, a giant Darth Vader pez dispenser, a water bottle with a replaceable filter, assorted snacks, a toy helicopter that actually flies, a giant d20 that lights up when it comes up as a 20, and a wooden treasure chest that my girlfriend hand painted in which my dice will be going.

Re: Share your holiday swag!

Beer, cigars, bottle of Crown Royal, a book of erotica, action figure of the character Dawn, lots of candies, and a tartan blanket in the style of the Black Watch.

Re: Share your holiday swag!

I'm satisfied to say everything I got has practical use or was editable, although someone thought it would be funny to gift me an Atari, which gave me enough of a laugh.

So in short, a lot of clothing and candy.

Am waiting on this new computer to arrive that someone said couldn't be delivered early. Probably won't be shipped out til the first of next month.

Woo!

Re: Share your holiday swag!

Socks, candies, money, a trollface T-shirt, a derpy USB fridge sized for one can and a book about manners around the world. Yay, I think.

 

[dmronny]

Re: Share your holiday swag!

Mostly clothes and the usual assortment of candy. I also got the new telescope I've wanted since I was in high school. Though of course the weather has been so overcast since Christmas that I have nothing to look at but my neighbors and my yard. Hopefully I'll get clear skies for my birthday so that I can finally look at the stars up close.

Re: Share your holiday swag!

Guessing the neighbours are not scantly clad, exhibitionist vixens?

 

[dmronny]

Re: Share your holiday swag!

Nope, crazy old couple with cats on one side and my cousin and nieces on the other side. Though there was something rather sinister about the way the old couple was taking down their outside Christmas decorations the other day.

That's all I ever asked Santa for... "scantily clad, exhibitionist vixen neighbors." Well, fuck you Santa! I was a good boy and never got the new neighbors I wanted...
