What did you get for christmas?

[ReservoirAngel]

Laptop cooling pad
T-shirt with tons of conspiracy theorist stuff (i assume it is. it has the Eye of the Illuminati on it)
£10 in a card
shit-ton of chocolate
a mug with 'Mr. Grumpy' from the Mr. Men on it
and, from my boyfriend (who i now love even more): a gift voucher that allowed me to buy Dragon Age: Origins Ultimate Edition on 360 and Children of Men, Gattaca, Equilibrium and The Island on DVD.

 

[WorldCritic]

For ,aybe the first time in years, I didn't ask for any new games. Instead I got Final Fantasy IX, Castle season 1, Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, Toy Story 3, and a new phone.

And socks, because no Christmas is complete without them.

I've noticed that, and yet I've never given or received socks for christmas. Does that mean my family sucks?

No, they don't suck. They just aren't in tune with what the cool people do.

When I was young I was disappointed when I got socks for Christmas and birthdays, but now I see the practical value of it, and i really need new ones.

Well I can see the practicality of socks as much as the next guy, that doesn't mean I want them as a christmas present...

A towel set and a T-shirt. I'm disappointed really...

Don't say that, towels are really useful!

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!)

Consider this my reminder.

Double day!
I got as follows

NEEDS: New Computer Mouse, Umbrella, PJ Bottoms (2 pairs), Shirts (2), Flashlights/Batteries (batteries are sitting next to my various devices... 360 controller, Wiimote, TVmote, etc.), Day Calendar full of stupid quotes

WANTS: Monster Lab, Armored Core 4 (got two copies so I'm gifting one to my friend), 3200 MS Points (Castlevania HD, Monday Night Combat, Ikaruga)

UNEXPECTED/OTHER GIFTS: chocolate/candy, HexBug Ant, Rubiks Cube (like I really need FIVE!)

 

[MikailCaboose]

Well, I didn't get the new Goldeneye game, but I did get an MP3 player, a few books by Newt Gingrich, and a full freakin' book on Kanji, so I can't complain at all (it's got more than I could imagine immediately needing)

 

[Dango]

Good things:
A new watch
The new iPod nano
An alarm clock
Hand Lotion!
A new pair of winter gloves
A new fancy electric razor
A new pair of headphones
A pair of moccasins
And a new sweater!
(I'm also re-getting Samurai Warriors and Dynasty Warriors 4)

I really didn't ask for much of that, so this was a pretty good Christmas for me.

 

[Eumersian]

The list is quite extensive, for me at least:

-Pants
-Reversible belt
-Two slick button-down shirts
-A tie
-A new, functional, refrigerator
-A roll-up, battery-powered keyboard
-A Squier Jazz Bass
-Way too much candy
-Way too much money in the form of gift cards, checks, etc.

 

[Karlaxx]

-Swiss Army Knife
-(Sorely needed) socks and underwear
-Cash money
-RC helicopter
-A massive, evil looking, black oilskin duster. It weighs at least 10 pounds and can probably protect me from small arms fire.
-Gift cards
-My two favorite albums by Freedom Call, Eternity and Dimensions

 

[FinalHeart95]

I would just like to mention that missing Sly Cooper during the PS2's runtime is one of my biggest mistakes ever.

The game reminds me of Crash Bandicoot/Spiro. That is the highest compliment I could possibly give to a game.

 

[emeraldrafael]

Now that Christmas has comea nd past, I can say what I got. Which include:

1 Pittsburgh Penguins Brooks Orpik home Jersey
1 Pittsburgh Penguins Sidney Crosby Winter Classic Jersey
3 (at least, maybe four) Pittsburgh Penguins T-Shirts
1 26in. Vizio Flat screen TV
1 Sony DVD player
1 Pittsburgh Penguins Hoodie
1 Oakland Athletics Hoodie

Did I make out like a bandit? Oh, I think so.

You know, you could always take a picture and upload it here

-Way too much candy

You can never get too much candy or money!!

I would just like to mention that missing Sly Cooper during the PS2's runtime is one of my biggest mistakes ever.

You can get the collection. But I'm wondering if you got the wrong thread?

From my sister: A video game and a T-shirt.
From my father: $300.
From my brother: A "Merry Christmas."
From my mother: ...Disappointment?

I'm gonna give you the same thing as your brother! Merry Christmas!
