The Official Christmas Present Thread 2003

[salmonax]

I got a hot meal and a hearty handshake, after blowing a couple hundred bucks on presents for people. Fuck this pseudo-pagan holiday...

[Dolemite]

I just realized I lost my X-mas money...

How? Was it teh booze?

[NeoZeedeater]

Game stuff - Game Boy Player, Time Crisis 3 with gun, Billy Hatcher, EB gift certificates

Non-game stuff - X-Men 2 DVD(I didn't ask for it so I hope it's a decent movie), money, clothes.

Shart, that sucks Brisco. Their should be a donate account on TNL. Just for the regular users, obviously we could give it to others when its urgent or important, farfetched idea, but im using my head today!!:yes:. I'd buy you a drink if you we're in MTL. Merry xmas anyways dude

I spent 10 minutes replying to this thread, but my reply has dissappeared.

anyway, the list:

$270 (Going towards a big muff)
a new Xbox
Xbox live
Top spin
PGR 2
XIII (PC)
A litre of 50% alcoholic vodka
drinking glasses
A few DVD's
A few CD's
3 shirts
3 pairs of shorts
A water pistol (its a family tradition. Christmas is a hot affair where I live)
Loads of chocolate
probably some other stuff that I can't remember at the moment.


really great haul for me. Usually I get around $200 worth of stuff, but this year was much more for some reason.

half on topic, on monday, I went to buy a $400 ibanez guitar to thrash, but my pay didn't go in. I looked like a dickhead.

Ibanez AEF18TVS. Sells for around $350 online. Im still amazed I got it. But whatever, it's my baby girl. I got it in the violet too:

I got a nice haul this year.
mini-fridge
bathrobe (coolest article of clothing ever)
Warcraft Battle Chest
Stephen King - Dark Tower V: Wolves of Calla
John Updike - The Early Stories
couple sweaters, a tie, a fleece jacket, more clothes
entertainment table for my tv and consoles
assorted shit not worth mentioning
$50

Kind of a weak haul compared to past years, but I was happy. My only complaint is that I didn't get the three things I actually asked for - Prince of Persia, 1080 Avalanche and a Best Buy certificate. But I can buy Persia with the $50 and Avalanche is more of a rental anyway.
