What did you get for christmas?

[wildpeaks]

We (UK) tend to open one present on Christmas Eve. I opened up the 5 Disc Final Cut of Blade Runner. Made me a happy bunny

There is a 5-disc edition of Blade Runner ?
I have the 2-disc edition which already includes "director's cut" extras, so what on earth is there on the additional 3 discs ?

I bought myself $800 worth of functional roman armour.

That... is AWESOME

It comes in a suitcase, and has every cut of the film ever released. I am so jealous that THEAFRONINJA got a copy.

Well i'm still waiting for my girlfriend to get up so I can get my present. (Hmm. I just realised that that sounded pretty sus.) I've been up since 6:30 and i'm still waiting at 9!!! It's just not right god damnit!!!

I got her some Pandora jewellery. I still dont understand why women like shiny things though. I just dont get it. Maybe they're magpies or something.

Dude, just be happy. As I went shopping for a gift for my GF, I realised something. Us guys have it really easy. This is the only, and I mean THE ONLY advantage we have in a relationship. We always know what to get them. Shiny things ^^

God jul, kompis!

Detsamma!

I got...
- A cellphone
- Socks
- Two t-shirts
- A toothbrush
- A used copy of Fable III. I hate Fable III.
- Rogue Warrior (The video game, not the book.)
- Underwear
- An empty wallet
- More socks
- An odd-looking sweater
- Medicine for mouth ulcers
- The Expendables on DVD
- The new Karate Kid on DVD

I think that's all of it.

Bunch of money, the last two books of the Tales of the Otori-pentalogy and Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood. And maybe HoN, if one gets a bit of leeway with which you recieve the gift.
Quite nice loot, all things considered.

I'm pretty sure I'll be getting a 500Gb hard drive, but other than that, possibly some clothes, but I asked for them so it's alright and also money, which I also asked for, because I don't trust any of my relatives to get me the right components needed to upgrade my computer.

Silly Scandinavians, why do you celebrate it on the wrong day?

Cuz we're impatient and want our presents! Duh...

Ironically, that's a very American attitude. Waiting isn't in our DNA. We ought to start doing the "presents on Christmas Eve" thing.

Anyway, I'm counting on getting books, movies, and an ITunes gift card. The perfect gifts for a media glutton like myself.

 

[Brownie101]

A pre-owned 20gb Xbox 360. Also, I payed for half of it anyway. And 2 Soul Grinders for my Warhammer army that we picked up back in June at a Games Workshop auction for $90.
That and some money. That's all I've gotten and all I expect to get. Everyone knows I'm a real pain to buy for so money solves the problem.

Too bad I won't have it for 2-4 months. It has to be tailor made for me.

We need a longer break to recover until we celebrate New Year.

We party that hard!

OT: I got a bit of cash and some random stuff. Though a couple days ago I got a pair of headphones and after a bit I'll also get a camera.

 

[smithy_2045]

64GB iPod touch.

Acutally, there's a cultural significance, I just don't know it. And if you're so impatient, why not celebrate it even earlier? Like december 23, or maybe even the 5th or 1st!

 

[Edorf]

iPhone 4
Underwear
A picture (yes)
2 CDs
Money

Urgh, I think thats it

That was the cultural significance I was thinking of in my earlier post, thank you!

EDIT: 500 posts! Cool... How should I celebrate it?

Now to the next step. To make it an internationally recognized holiday. What's our first move? An FB group?

 

[TehCookie]

I will be getting a Wii! I will finally be able to play all the Nintendo games I never had the chance to before (funny thing is most of the games I wanted for it are actually gamecube games). I have a feeling I'm going to be playing Zelda all vacation. (Not actually getting it til christmas day though...)

Also in my family I get to open presents the weekend before christmas with my mom's side, then christmas eve with the black sheep of my moms side then christmas day with my immediate family and then my dad's side and the day after christmas with the black sheep on my dads side. So much for family coming together, it seems like my family is the only one who gets along with everyone.

Seven Figma figures, a jacket, season 2, 3, and 4 of the Simpsons, about 6 PS2 games, and two tickets to Evangelion 2.0 in theaters...

Also, several figures I pre-ordered a while ago came in today...
