The Official Christmas Present Thread 2003

[Rocca]

nice gifts Xeno, we have just about the same xmas gifts in common, except for the books and comics, the games and dvd's...i got an xbox remote and some clothes...

[Drewbacca]

I got a lot of stuff, I made off like a bank robber or something. Here's what I got:

The Hulk
Pirates of the Caribbean
Undercover Brother (wanted Zoolander, but she couldn't find it. I'll return it for Zoolander soon enough)
Lion King
Gladiator
Matrix Reloaded (probably trade it in, I hate the Matrix)
Vanilla Sky
Simpsons Season 2
Finding Nemo
A Sony DVD player

Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time
Crimson Skies (awesome game)
Mario Kart: Double Dash!!
Tony Hawk Underground

boxer shorts, socks
3 nice shirts
a pair of jeans
6 t-shirts, assorted colours
a pillow my sister made me

That's a lot of stuff man. And that's just for me. I was hoping for an iPod but I know they're expensive so maybe next year.

Undercover Brother (wanted Zoolander, but she couldn't find it. I'll return it for Zoolander soon enough)

Undercover Boother is 10x the movie Zoolander is. Open that shit up and watch it bro!

The cover of Undercover Brother has an awesome shot of Denise Richard's ass. I would keep the DVD just for that.

My haul was interesting this year, to say the least.

From family:
two shirts, one of which I can't wear.
various cards, and my name was spelled wrong in several.
a jar of candy
the box for my SP, as a joke, as that really was my early gift
a used and battered (but working) Puzzle Fighter II GBA from my brother-dear
$50 from my uncle
blanket (that incidentally came free from the store with the purchase of my brother's gift. nice thinking dad.)

Friends:
a box of jellybeans
The Darwin Awards, a pretty good book I hear
big ol' t-shirt promoting a friend's website that I'll sleep in.

Tain got me a Dreamcast and a whole mess of games. Most definitely wins, as far as gifts go. That and a video. ^^

By far, the best Christmas I've had in a long time. But I had more fun giving gifts, really. Didn't have any money so I ended up getting creative and arty. Kinda worked, but it was loads of fun trying.

[LOL]

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

Stick it to the man, d0od. Holla!

[Cheebs]

I was really spoiled.

Bike rack for car
LCD VGA monitor for recording studio
20 GB Archos Gmini 120 music player
2 commemorative edition Transformer re-issues
Tokyo Extreme Racer 3
Mario and Luigi
DVDs, books, clothes, stuff like that

[James]

Beyond Good & Evil for Gamecube
Quicksilver, by Neal Stephenson
The Bromeliad
Monstrous Regiment, both by Terry Pratchett
Wolves of the Calla, by Stephen King
Socks, because it's a tradition
The promise of a day's downhill skiing.

Not a bad haul at all.
