Annual present thread

vict0r · Tue 25/12/2007 23:46:14

Well, there probably isn't an annual present thread, but then I'll take on the responsibility to make one every year from now on. That is a promise. Don't quote me on that.

Anywaaay... What did you get for christmas this year? This isn't some bragging thread or a competition on who got the most expensive present, but I'd like to hear if people got presents or anything that meant anything special to them.

Me? I got a pair of "Skullcandy Skullcrushers" with absolutely fantastic sound. And what meant the most for me was from my parents, being a small airplane "driving license".

My dad has always wanted to learn to fly and then wanted me to join in on it.

What did you get?

Two very old albums made by Depeche Mode and The Cure.
Chocolates.
More chocolates.
Yet more chocolates!
Socks.
Christopher Reed as Superman dvd set. (Don't care to own the shit new Superman film, either.)
Whisky.

But hey I'm not realy that bothered if you think this list sucks, I have had a very good year. A beautiful wonderful girlfriend (9 months and counting), a great job with actual responsibilities I care to uphold, and a loving family. This was the best year of my life!

I got:

quite a smart new shirt
a new front door key (coz I lost my other one) on a Bart Simpson keyring
Sure for Men deodorant set,
one quarter of a 'Deal or No Deal' DVD game (to be shared with my family - despite the fact that I hate DonD and have always said so).
one third of a 'Girls Karaoke' Disc set, to go with the karaoke machine my mum got.
one 'Maltesers and Friends' selection box.

The shared pressies were a result of us all being really skint this year... I know its the thought that counts, but everyone knows I hate 'Deal...' and I'm not exactly into girls Karaoke either.

oh, and I also got a false moustache set from my friend... quite amusing.

NOTHING (yet)

I got a hatrack. We bought a house in july this year, and I wear a lot of hats. It just made sense. We got a bunch of (cheap) kitchen appliences (my mom meant well) and I got a $50 Gamestop giftcar than I'm currently using to purchase Runaway...

On that note, before I hit add to cart...
Anyone ever play this game? It's the newest 2d adventure I can find, and it looks cool, but...well....I've been hurt before.

On the giving end, I gave my girl a neato new Tri force Nintendo DS with the new Zelda, a mini brewery kit, and a photo scrapbook.

She loves me...I, in fact, rule.

Merry Christams!

We got NO snow this year ..

.. that means no Christmas spirit. For me and most people I know, it felt like any other day .. but oh well
I made myself a present and got a new electric guitar that I had been wanting (actually needing) for ages. And a new wallet.

oh and no dollards either. That makes me really sad. I think I'll go cry on my new pillow [125 dollard]

Phemar · Wed 26/12/2007 09:36:53

I got earphones and a tshirt and 14.2 dollard.

Gregjazz · Wed 26/12/2007 09:48:15

20 dollard and a few random items.

Shane 'ProgZmax' Stevens · Wed 26/12/2007 09:50:09

Christmas dinner and this massive 1987 yamaha full size sit-at midi keyboard that I have no intention of using!

voh · Wed 26/12/2007 09:51:55

Nothing. Christmas isn't about presents and I like it that way

A couple of pretentious books about language, a couple of political magazines... and a remotely controllable toy zeppelin, which is beyond awesome.

EldKatt · Wed 26/12/2007 13:21:37
