What did you get for christmas?

[Vegeta897]

But everyone in the US eats fake licuorice, just this red stuff that looks just like it except it actually tastes good

No really, there is this one brand that makes this really good red licuorice...

Is that really the correct spelling? Shouldn't the 'o' be before the... Oh nevermind.

 

[Maxi]

liqourice?

Anyway, the stuff we eat is made with amoniac, the same way salmiak is made, only less strong.

I got a 19" monitor..my old one was really blurry! And i got some other stuff not worth mentioning...

 

[Foxtrot]

I got a sweater from my mom, some socks from my dad and 2 dollars from my grandma. Oh I also got some shitty portable radio thing that only plays FM stations. My little brother got the only thing that really interests me out of all the gifts, KOTOR2, I played it for 15 minutes and then he took it back....what a bitch.

 

[Atomi]

Maybe you'll get to play it after he finishes. Waiting for next year and getting it on PC!

 

[Foxtrot]

I am going to bitch now about how much I hate xmas. I have a twin brother(stfu, he looks nothing like me) and every ****ing year I get the most generic shit items just so whatever I get is the same exact thing he gets, just so it is fair. I am sick of getting this generic shit, ALWAYS, I have never once recieved a present that he hasn't recieved. I don't care if his is worth more money, I just want something I would like to get. It doesn't matter what I ask for either, he will either get it or it will be for the both of us....bah I am tired of bitching about this ****ing holiday. Oh and my little brother ****ing sucks at video games, he won't finish that game for a couple of months. I did get one xbox game though, from my dad, I don't remember what it was called but he bought it for himself.

WHY THE HELL DOES HE GET KOTOR 2! He can hardly play Diablo 2 without changing chracters 10 times.

 

[Loke]

Saving Private Ryan DVD box (the sound totally rocks on a 5.1. system)
A book
Some money
Clothes

Not much this Christmas.

 

[Foxtrot]

WHY THE HELL DOES HE GET KOTOR 2! He can hardly play Diablo 2 without changing chracters 10 times.

Because he whined and whined and whined for it, all he has to do is whine enough and he gets whatever he wants. If I add up the monetary value of everything, my Dad spent about $10 and my brother and I(we are always added up as one entity) and $100(2 xbox games) on Seth...Oh an my orange juice tastes TERRIBLE, if my grandma was a juice this is what she would taste like.

[Narcolepsy]

I suppose I'll contribute:
1.) Metroid Prime 2: Echoes
Thoughts so far: Too soon to pass judgement, but doesn't seem to have that spark that made the original so great... so far.

2.) Paper Mario
3.) Fable
4.) Lord of the Rings Extended Edition Box Set
Thoughts so far: Oh yes.

5.) 20 GB Ipod
Thoughts so far: I'm amazed with Apple on this one. I had never thought much of their simplistic design, but when holding it in your hands, it's simply an incredible feat of engineering bliss. And the sound quality is stellar.

6.) Incubus: Alive at Red Rocks DVD
Thoughts so far: Incredible performance, and I was about 5 days away from seeing it on my trip to Colorado. I will never forgive myself. ;(

And that's about it. It was an extremely happy Christmas.

Happy holidays to you all!

[Stigmata]

- Xbox controller
- Green Day - American Idiot (CD), stellar album

- A TV for to play my Xbox on... I guess the one I used to use, the one that was probably made in the sixties, was getting a bit old
- A cool digital watch
- Cologne
- Two sweatshirts
- Tic-tacs in my stocking... When I saw this gift I said to my parents, "Couldn't you have been a bit more subtle?" We had a good laugh

My little brother got a snowboard, and a lot of stuff that's similar to mine. My other little brother got two pairs of kickass shoes, and again a lot of stuff similar to my stuff. And my little sister got some similar stuff as well, plus some board games, and some sort of large gift (wasn't paying too much attention to her ).
