Christmas Spoils?

[Veho]

I got a chocolate.

 

[Matthew]

Didnt get much, the most interesting thing was a swiss army knife, my sister got a kindle. Granted I got a £600 laptop recently.

 

[gloweyjoey]

So I told my GF I needed more storage space for my Wii backups. Her mom asked her what i wanted for Christmas so she told her to get me an 8GB SD card for my backups.....siiigh....atleast its class 4!

 

[geminisama]

You want to know what I got for fucking Christmas?

Nothing, and my dad suddenly decides that he wants to get divorced from my mom.

Fuck Christmas. Fuck it all to hell.

I don't think christmas had anything to do with that.

Trust me, it did.

They started arguing the fuck out of the reasons of what to do for money and things (related to Christmas) as we are in a tight spot. Several minutes later, things get thrown. Now, I'm just pissed.

Also, depressed as all hell.

Christmas is a stressing time, with the monetary obligations of society. One of the main things couples fight over is money, too. Hopefully they'll makeup, as that's something couples tend to do, especially when stressed. Have hope, man.

My wife got me:

$25 and $50 PSN cards
a GPS (TomTom)
Killzone 2 for PS3
Black Ops for PS3
Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit for PS3
a Rocawear Jacket


And I would have settled with nothing at all, because seeing my son open his presents and play with his new toys is a christmas present enough.

 

[rashef]

A pair of leather gloves (the winter keep your hands warm kind).

 

[DaRk_ViVi]

A PS3 Slim 160Gb with Heavenly Sword and Uncharted (actually this was a gift I made for myself xD).
Then some monkey from parents and the Indiana Jones Boxset.

 

[Depravo]

Bottle of cognac
Bottle of tequila
Socks & kegs
Smallville season 8 DVD boxset
Iron Man 2 DVD
Mysterious Cites of Gold DVD boxset

As a bonus I was given a pre-owned but unused Gerber Multitool.

Tonights plans involve getting drunk wearing nothing but underwear and taking something to pieces while watching a DVD.

 

[DeMoN]

Clothes (a dress shirt and a tie).

Hey, at least it's better than nothing.

 

[Westside]

...sigh... A porno mag... University buddies are so awesome.../sarcasm

 

[pristinemog]

Nothing, as it keeps me in the clear from having to get anyone else anything. I've got more than enough money to buy the things I want myself ;D

 

[unnkown95]

pristinemog so selfish

 

[Hells Malice]

Nothing, as it keeps me in the clear from having to get anyone else anything. I've got more than enough money to buy the things I want myself ;D

Do you make your workers work on Christmas day?
----


-Lots of candy/chocolate

-Grad-photo tree ornament
-$145 from relatives
-$230 'christmas bonus' from my job.
-A sweet, huge cook book.

-500GB hard drive for my PS3

Spoiler

AND A HALO 3 SPECIAL EDITION XBOX 360.

BEST. CHRISTMAS. EVER.

 

[PeregrinFig]

My total was $230, more than I was expecting. I was hoping to get an iPod Touch, but the 8GB is on sale for $280. I'm going to buy the special edition DSi XL bundle tomorrow, and sell the Mario Kart DS cartridge on ebay or something because not only do I have a flashcard, but a cartridge of MKDS that came in the Phat bundle 5 years ago. I then plan to get a 1 month Runescape membership (lulz), and a CC Pro so I suck less at Monster Hunter Tri. (Going to start playing that game again)

TBH, I feel spoiled with what I got...
-Brand new wristwatch. Very shiny, very large. (Great present from my sister)
-Teamug, for the days I wake up 5 minutes before the last train to school leaves. (possibly the most useful thing I got. Thanking my grandmother for that)
-3 albums: "Scabdates" by The Mars Volta, "In/Casino/Out" by At The Drive-in, and "Takk..." by Sigur Rós (Being a musical enthusiast and proghead, this was an amazing present, and a great surprise from my brother)
-Android phone: ZTE Blade. (This was the big one for me. Desperate need a of a phone + utter functionality and cheapness = a great gift from my parents)
- ~150 USD from grandpa and my parents. I really don't feel like I'll need the money, though... it's too much
