Post your haul!

Dunno about you bitches, but we be early risers up in this bitch, and hence have already finished present openings and things (as well as the tradition of eating cinnamon rolls and oh my god cinnamon rolls nnnnnngh)

So, as is NPF's christmas tradition, this is the present posting thread!

I received a wonderful array of items, in part I think due to the fact that my parents no longer have any children living at home as of this year, and so probably have a lot more spare income.

The highlights of my list include:

A very nice survival knife (I had one that I used for all sorts of tasks, and it broke, so I needed a new one. This is the one I got. The knife is very nice, but honestly the sheath is kinda shit. Might get a new one, or just reinforce this one with some leather and metal.)

One of those folding utility knife thingies which is all kinds of awesome. Very sturdy.

A nice drill gun (deWalt, 18V)

A racquetball racquet (was having to rent from the rec centre, and their racquets are terrible) and some balls

The best t-shirt

A few other small things, a nice coat, some drill bits, some very nice jeans (carhart, I think), a hot glue gun.

Oh! And a 32" flatscreen for my apartment.

I feel somewhat spoiled in posting this. This is a completely inordinate amount of awesome things. This was a good christmas.

Lessons learned this year:
1. Christmas is better when you aren't a child and can appreciate things.
2. Tools are the best presents.

Absolutely nothing but a nice dinner cooked by my mother.

This is humerous to me as your post has a timestamp of 5.14PM.

As for the question; money, booze, chocolate. Woo Christmas/sarcasm

A few cases of Faygo, face paint, tickets for the gathering, some sweet fuckin hatchet merch, 19th century russian literature, the same things I ask for every year pretty much.

Absolutely nothing cause I am five thousand miles from home.

Nothing (Money)

I got a digital recorder that is Dragon compatible. So I never need to write notes again and I can keep up with ideas/schedules

Another Rubic's cube. which is FANTASTIC as the last one broke a few months ago due to over use

A VERY awesome batman tshirt done by my favorite comic book artiest a comfy woolly green sweater a nice new pair of blue jeans

The HD Remake of Ico & Shadow of the Colossus

A electric trimmer

and the Autobiography/biography of Steve Jobs (which came from no where as I really didn't like Steve that much)

A knitted headband with a big ol' flower on it
A necklace with a tiny little birdcage
A big sparkly purple scarf/pashmina thingie
A green hooded vest
An iPod Nano (because my iPod Mini finally broke this March and nobody will fix it cuz they stopped making Minis years ago)
A coupon for an item from either ThinkGeek or the Valve Store. This one will take a LOT OF THOUGHT.

And the best thing: A paper bag puppet shaped like Admiral Ackbar that my sister made for me as a gag gift. He is GLORIOUS and I ADORE HIM. Yelling "IT'S A TRAP" is so much more fun when it involves making squeaky voices and waving a puppet around in peoples' faces.

Also: A lot of candy. SO MUCH CANDY.

A bunch of a new t-shirts and collared (casual) shirts, which is fantastic since my wardrobe has been ridiculously small lately. Also a coat and a zip-up sweater.

A bottle of Crown Royal and this box that came with a mickey of rye whiskey, vodka, spiced rum, and a booklet with a bunch of drinks you can make.

Arkham City and Sonic Generations.

Gift certificates to the local mall.

And finally an assorted bunch of chocolates and candy, including a full-sized Toblerone.
