The "What did you get for christmas" thread.

[Rubin0]

I got about 2 grand worth of checks and no presents. Everyone knows I'm poor so they just gave me money.

Also, I got a DS and a couple games for it, deodorant + cologne, 16 Gig flash drive, micro SD card for my phone, and apples to apples 8). Oh and cash + gift cards.

Ah just remembered that the best gift I got for Christmas was a PBA card from my cousin who is a cop. No more tickets...not that I ever get pulled over anyway.

Droid 2, this one I actually got a few weeks ago under the condition that it was to be counted as an early Christmas gift

I'm heading over to the other side of the family for additional loot in a bit

lmfaoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

My grandmother sent me one of my dead grandfather's combs. Like, just a 25 cent plastic comb, it was all grody and looked like it had hair on it

it was really funny but also kind of sad

On my Mom's side I got three pieces of paper and some long underwear. Sounds weak, right? But the pieces of paper were newegg receipts so I can expect a joyful Fedex delivery soon with a new mouse, keyboard, and TV Tuner card.

It's not about the money, it's the thought of it that counts. But I still agree with your Holy **** comment.

Why not just wait a few months and get a 3DS when they come out in spring...
Anyway:
Canucks sweater,
Canucks book,
Canucks flashlight/laser pointer thingy,
Canucks mug,
Canucks toque,
Lots of candy,
Star Wars piggy bank,
Star Wars novel "Deathtroopers",
Lego version of Darth Vader's TIE Fighter (Yes, I know I'm 19, but dang it. Lego never gets old),
Star Wars calender,
Pajama bottoms,
Jeans,
More candy,
Apples to Apples,
Subway card ($15),
Best Buy card ($20),
Coles card ($15),
Mall gift cards ($70 total),
Professor Layton and the Unwound Future,
The promise to go phone shopping,
And some good quality family time. AKA, playing Apples to Apples before watching Toy Story 3.

Yeah. Surprising haul. I got the 3 things I asked for: the books and the Lego, and everything else was awesome.

[EzExZeRo7497]

Razer Arctosa
$20 in cash

That's pretty much it, I'm pretty happy with Arctosa though.
Gotta wait till next year to get better gifts I hope.

[Mechablob]

I got quite a few DS games: Pokemon Platinum and Heart Gold; Mario Kart DS; Legend Of Zelda: Spirit Tracks; Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars. Also related to games, I got Silent Hill Origins for the PS2 - I'm so outdated.

I also got a few books too: Banksy's Wall And Piece; Mark Z. Danielewski's House Of Leaves; George Orwell's Animal Farm and 1984.

I got some cool DVDs too from David Lynch's Twin Peaks complete series (1 and 2) to Hayao Miyazaki's Ponyo. I also got some cool little bits and bobs - I was bought some Mensa endorsed puzzles to try and solve over the holiday and it's great trying to tinker around with them.

I got a new 23" monitor for my computer, so FFR and Stepmania are much bigger. :P
Some cash, and a gift card to Best Buy.

[reuben_tate]

Okay here goes:

-A whole bunch of clothes (I don't even want to list them all -__-)
-An analog wrist watch
-Candy/Snacks
-A new pair of shoes*
-One of those toy stuffed penguins where they give you a code that you can use online to "make your 'pet' come to life."**
-A $115 winter jacket***
-A ****ing big duffle bag***
-A roll of toilet paper****
-5 pairs of "high-quality" underwear
-Cologne
-$55 (Cumulative)

*Since I live in Hawaii, I almost always wear slippers so whenever I needed to wear shoes, I would always use my black marching shoes. Black marching shoes isn't so great for sports/hiking so hence the new pair of actual tennis shoes.
**I like penguins. Deal with it. The whole "bring your pet to life online" thing seems kind of kiddish to I probably won't be doing that.
***My mom bought these things assuming I'll move to the mainland for college. Since I live in Hawaii, it never snows so my mom got me a winter coat assuming it'll snow wherever I go. She said the duffel bag is for my luggage.
****I won this lame prize after winning Bingo at some family Christmas party.
*****I might win a PS3 w/ move if I win this certain contest at my local public library.
