geezzz....I feel like I didn't get anything now that i read the first post where poop got gifts that cost a total of 2000 bucks...that's like ...25 000 kroons. I could buy a car for that.

I only got Sims 2, New internet (I had a 56kb modem, I have ADSL now.) and some rockets and stuff and ofcourse A LOT of candy and stuff.

did she like her lava lamp?

Yeh, she did

I'm bad at getting people gifts, I give her a lamp every year

Well, poop, I know you've got a lot of response from your gifts, but I think I have you beat here.
Here's my Christmas score:

1 (one) Japanese woodblock calender, street value $15 (all $ are USD)
2 (two) Sculpey figurines made by my 12 yo bro, estimated value $5,340 (each)
1 (one) garage door, valued at $1,500
1 (one) Hungry Hungry Hippos board game, garage sale edition, $45
1 (one) autographed biography of Don Knotts, $32.50 (receipt included by accident)

Total Christmas Score: $12,272.50

Anyways, even if you just glanced over this list quickly, you'll find that I did have a more successful Christmas than you, poop. Better luck next year, sucka!

Eleazar · Sat 25/12/2004 21:25:42

Well, I bet you all. I got these amazing 8) things:
1- Escarpandola
2- Pituche
3- MaÃ±o
I'm so happy with my gifts

Damien · Sat 25/12/2004 21:27:56

Fascinating.

I got the flue, and I got drunk.

I also got:
-creative labs live! 24bit 5.1 bulk sound card (around 35$) because my old one fried,
-guitar strings.

Happyhelmet · Sat 25/12/2004 21:30:12

being an only child myself, that list really makes me sad that the $$$ on a gift is what this next generation concerns themselves with. thinking back, i remember those days when there was a shit load of presents under the tree, but when you hit your 20s, you wonder where all those gifts go. they either end up in the trash, or sold at a garage sale for someone else to enjoy. you notice how more rewarding things are when you have to save for months and months before you can afford to purchase something because you have a shit load of bills (the adult presents from various companies, lol). oh well. i don't recall a coffin big enough to hold all that stuff, poop, but let me check online.

cheers.

I got a digital camera.

Spent the day running round taking photos of random things, especially the snow we got! I had a great day, having a snowball fight with my dad (definitely came off worse!), pulling crackers, stuffing my face, and just generally enjoying spending time with my family. To be perfectly honest, I would have been just as happy with a cheap selection box. Though the origami set I got was cool!

[Cameron] · Sun 26/12/2004 01:15:38

Godfather Trilogy on DVD, Sims 2 (It wont work :'( ), San Andreas, Dean Koontz The Taking, Ben Elton Past Mortem, 2 pixies cds, Some candy, money (I've used some to buy The Getaway Black Monday, i'll try and save the rest for a digital camera. I'll probably spend it before the week is out

) and i've got more stuff coming. We try and spend before christmas with one side of the family, christmas at home by ourselves, then the day after we see the rest of the family. Makes it easier than one big rush.

Notes: I'm not an only child, and am in a non-wealthy, yet productive enough family that is paying for college in one case. So, I got surprised this year, for sure.

LGM · Sun 26/12/2004 02:21:34

Well.. If we're gonna list gifts we recieved this year:

- A Mini-Water-Cooler for my room, so I always have water available.
- A sweater I can wear at work
- New Pajama Pants
- Coupla pairs of Underoos
- A hand-maid quilt from grand mum
- Shoveling gloves
- Driving Gloves
- My new computer parts. (Mobo, CPU and RAM.. See my 64 Bit thread for details)
- A Car-washing kit from family friends
- A Texas Hold 'em shirt
- $150+ in gift cards and cash. This is all going towards my CPU and RAM, though.
- Some other odds and ends.

Of course, the time spent with my family and the appreciation of their gifts I bought for them was another great gift I recieved this Christmas. Spending time with the ones you love is almost always better than any material gift, in the long run.

poop, I know that, in the most likely scenario, you posted your list (which could very well be exxagerated) to get a rise out of us. It's okay, kids your age on the internet are either very mature, the troll-like type that make senseless, mean-spirited posts like you do, or "th3y tlk liek d1s"

It's okay, though. I'm sure you'll grow up some day to become a highly-paid, important person. It will most likely be a job that's been handed to you. And in that job, you can boss little people around like me to feel big and mighty about yourself. You'll have everything you ever wanted, there's no doubt in my mind.

But the one thing I'll have that you won't (and probably don't have now), is people that truly care about me. Take that into consideration.

Merry Christmas, poop, and thanks for all the cheese.

Ok, for those who don't know what a escarpandola or a pituche are; here is a description of my gifts:

sedriss · Sun 26/12/2004 03:13:36

My mom got me a new guitar! Awesome!
I also got Jolt Cola chewing gum! 2 pieces of gum equals 1 cup of coffee.
Wierd.

Timosity · Sun 26/12/2004 03:13:45

LOTR extended edition trilogy - haven't seen any of the extended additions yet or watched any for about a year so I'm looking forward to it.

some movie vouchers

a few books

some salted cashews

a few other odds and ends

I bought myself a Home Brew kit a not long ago, and I just spent the last few hours bottling my first batch, so in a few weeks I'm looking forward to over sampling it. (Boxing day, now known as Bottling Day)

I spent christmas day with relatives for lunch, I see them fairly often so it wasn't a big catch up or anything, but a great day. My little sister is due for her first child in 12 days so she's got a pretty big stomach, I was predicting it to be born on christmas but I guess I was wrong.

I spent the evening with a few close friends for dinner and more drinks.

LOL. Sweet.

TerranRich · Sun 26/12/2004 03:21:05

poop! You must be so blessed! F**k peace on Earth and good will to all men (and women), poop got 1930 dollard [sic] and a gym membership! Great going, buddy! Like you'll ever use the gym membership.

Hey, poop, here's some advice for you, you spoiled little snot-nosed brat: take that money, and buy some decency. Go tell someone who really gives a crap.

poop734 · Sun 26/12/2004 03:26:50

that's right your just jealous that your not rich like me. i totally rule. im gonna take the 1930 dollard that i so deserve and buy a yacht.

InCreator · Sun 26/12/2004 03:30:40

And I got...

nothing?

Aw crap.

BruisedWeasel · Sun 26/12/2004 04:08:25

I have you all beat.

Cassy, one of my sisters if you haven't met her in irc, bought me a butane torch to use in the kitchen. I can torch things. In the kitchen. With fire. Fire, in my hand, while in the kitchen, with Japanese beetles waiting to be roasted. Sweetness.

Mother found a positively spiffy journal with lined pages for angst words and blank pages for angsty drawings, with a Tim Burton design and- get this- lights on the cover that light up when you push a button. Damned sweet.

Dad gave me.... more fire! One of those torch lighter things. There aren't enough flammable objects in the house. Dad even wrapped it himself, which was very adorable.

I accidently broke the candle holder I bought for Cassy, so I gave her tree fiddy. She seemed pleased. Angie (my other sister, if you haven't had the joy of meeting her yet) got a book full of naked people. She seemed amused. And thus ends the christmas that revolves around my ego-centric self.
