What did you get for christmas?

[GeorgW]

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

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

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.

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

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

Baconmas is June 13. It has been decided.

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

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...

I got a Tool Hoodie, 2 CD's (Tool and Disturbed), a T-shirt and gloves. Still need two presents tho, getting them on monday.

 

[SovietSecrets]

Already got my gifts. A brand new 1080p monitor and my brother paid Deus Ex 3 off for me.

 

[Zanaxal]

A brand new scv.

The gamecube had all the best games. I'm really disappointed with the wii.

Well, I got my pressie on the 18th, so I'm not getting anything tomorrow.

Shiny new snare drum ^__^

I don't really celebrate Christmas anyway... Pagan festivals taken by Christians and turned into corporative bullshit aren't really my thing.

 

[ezeroast]

A carton of beer. Just me and my brother doing presents this year and thats what we always get each other.

 

[The_Echo]

Had Christmas with my dad today, since I have it with my mom tomorrow. Got a camera (excited to be able to do console Let's Plays with it), some kick-ass headphones, some Levi 501s (the only pants I wear) and some shirts, and an assortment of John Steinbeck books.

Since the Christmas list I gave to my mom was nothing but books, I expect as much. Probably getting money from the family. It's all good.

 

[Woodsey]

Nothing yet (UK).

Hopefully I'll get enough money to buy myself a PS3 though, since I can't not play the Uncharted games for any longer.

I tried to resist, I tried to tell myself there's nothing else on the platform I'm overly interested in, but I just can't help it.

FOOOOOOOOOD! We decided not to buy gifts this year and just have a big feast at a park with family whilst playing some cricket and laxing in the sun, New Zealand FTW!

I haven't seen this thread yet, so I figured I'd create it.
In my Country, Sweden, we give gifts on christmas eve, so I've already gotten all of my gifts. (Suck it, Americans! )
So, what did you get for christmas, and were you happy about it?
If you haven't gotten anything yet, feel free to guess and then later see if you got it right.
I got the first 5 series of Dr. Who and Babylon 5. I'm very happy with that, just what I wanted.

Remind me to get back to you tomorrow

but so far, I've gotten a katana/umbrella (half of it's endangered, the other half IS danger!)

 

[Grey_Focks]

Not christmas yet for me, but my friends and I already exchanged out gifts yesterday. I got a pretty awesome T-shit, three-stooges DVD collection, and a Magic card that if I were to name, none of you would probably know wtf it is. Also got gifted Supcom 2 on steam. That was pretty awesome.

Awesome!

A metric f***-ton of games that I helped pick out from used-games stores over the course of the year, some Nightmare Before Christmas memorabilia, candy, more games, clothes, and hopefully some money, because I have some things I really need to save for.

 

[Fusioncode9]

I usually get two different sets of parents from my Mom and Dad and I know I'm getting AC Brotherhood, the kinect family bundle(hold your hate mail), a new jacket, and either gift cards or cash from other family members like my aunt and uncle who have no idea what I want. I feel like I've been pretty generous this Christmas because I spent a lot more on presents than I usually do.
