The Phalanx Posted December 26, 2006 Share Posted December 26, 2006 Casltevania: Portrait of Ruin (Which I annihilated in 2 days) FF 3 New slippers Sweater Socks Box set of 3 Eldar War Walkers Dragon Ogre Shaggoth Keeper of Secrets Chaos Defiler Tome of Corruption (WFRPG sourcebook) Invader Zim DVD (eeeh...) Gift certificates to clothing stores (YAY NEW PANTS) $140 loose cash from relatives ...and probably the oddest one of all, a box of 5 soda bottles. But not any kind, oh no. These are from the Jones company, and every year they release these holiday-themed drinks. Such tasty flavors are: Turkey & Gravy, Sweet Potatoes, Dinner Rolls, Pea, and Antacid. Even comes with a shot glass. So far, I'm trying to convince two friends of mine to sit down and take shots of these. Whatever is left, I'm gonna mix into one giant, disgusting coagulation and down it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blake Posted December 26, 2006 Share Posted December 26, 2006 Getting lots of stuff doesn't mean you're spoiled. To not value your belongings would make you spoiled. If that were the case, there would be one person in the world who really wasn't spoiled because relative to other, less fortunate cultures, we all are spoiled by having a lifestyle stable enough that we can post on an internet forum. Though I like to mention that I AM being spoiled every so often because I'm trying to be modest to the fact that my mom is such a great mom. But a lot of people in these threads probably have a large circle of good friends that have given them presents as well. I got about 7 presents from other family members, and I believe 4 from my friends. EDIT: oh the presents 100 dollar gift card best buy HP Pavilion with Athlon 64 Dual Core 4200 and a gig of ram. My comp is archaic compared to this. Pants Dress Clothes A cool hoodie ten dollar gift certificate to Cold Stone (ice cream restaurant) And miscellaneous money/ X-mas cards.

Dhsu Posted December 26, 2006 Share Posted December 26, 2006 Star Wars: Guide to Vehicles and Spacecraft Still the best Star Wars guide in my opinion (although this might be colored a little by nostalgia). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunnowhathuh Posted December 26, 2006 Share Posted December 26, 2006 Mini remote control car from a Kris Kringle and 50 bucks. I bought my own Wii but I guess that doesn't count as a gift when it comes from yourself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fire in the Hole Posted December 26, 2006 Share Posted December 26, 2006 ten dollar gift certificate to Cold Stone (ice cream restaurant) Is that the one where they make it in front of you with dry ice? If so, that's probably worth more in delectability than any of your other presents. Good stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeditrooper Posted December 26, 2006 Share Posted December 26, 2006 Star Wars: Guide to Vehicles and Spacecraft Still the best Star Wars guide in my opinion (although this might be colored a little by nostalgia).

A shotglass from Venezuela from a friend. A "beer trade" *every holiday me and a friend exchange a bottle of beer with each other. And a leather jacket along with some new pants.
