[replicant]

Thanks 10K,
I hope your SS is extra good to you.
Woohoo! Let the shopping begin! Weeeeeeeeeeee!

[10,000 Volt Ghost]

Sorry it took longer that I expected it to. I really didn't think I was going to be able to do it. Hope its a good one this year. If anyone has any difficulty with the new deadlines just pm me.

[Mockery]

Just ordered the gift(s) for my Secret Santa recipient. This should be good

[Tacobot]

That last part sounds pretty ominous. Can't wait to see what you got your recipient.

[Pentegarn]

I got my person and am getting their stuff as we speak, some of it will be out of the used category so I can get them more for my budget, hope that is OK

Spoilers!

No remote control whatever this year though. I feel I have gone to that well enough and decided to be a little more original

[BatmanJohnson]

Yay time to go shopping after work~

[Pentegarn]

OK Stuff sent, the cost to send stuff was more than the spending limit

Holy crap, man! I hope you get some awesome stuff in return.
Hmm... everyone likes stickers and feathers right?

[replicant]

I have bought my stuff. Just have to receive it. Then comes the really fun stuff - inventive packaging! MWHWAAAAAAHAHAHAHA!

[Pentegarn]

Well to be fair I do think weight 'weighed' into the cost :rimshot

[Ex Leper]

I got some great stuff for my person. One package will arrive very soon and the other will come later in the month.

[Protoclown]

I never gave out my address, so I am wondering how the person assigned to me is going to send anything.

10K, I just sent you my address information so you can forward it along to whoever.

[The_Punk_Hippie]

*flail* I have no idea what to get for my person... except for one thing (hooray handmade gift of awesomeness, shopping will wait until the weekend)

(& no worries - I read the rules, I'm adding handmade on top of the spending limit, for some extra awesomeness :D)

[Ex Leper]

Check the interest thread and if that fails anything that was reviewed on the site is a good suggestion.

[dextire]

You can also browse through the Secret Santa event from last year (and the events previous to that) for a lot of great ideas.

[Mockery]

Yeah, you don't have to worry about what people are into. Just get something that you think anybody would enjoy and/or have fun photographing 'n playing with for the Secret Santa event. Long as you're not a cheap ass shopping at the dollar store (which is not allowed), you should be just fine.

[inferno]

I'll just watch everyone else then.

Then watch some more.

Then watch you (yes you).

Then take a nap.




While still watching.



But I digress.
Curse my moral and contractual obligations to not acknowledge the existence of Christmas until after Thanksgiving.
But such is the life of a revolutionary.
[Single tear of ultimate sadness]
[Longing look at the moon for the hope of a better future]

[10,000 Volt Ghost]

Why don't you save that tear of ultimate sadness for some real problems.

[BatmanJohnson]

Shipped this morning, hope my secret santa enjoys!

[stonewar]

shopping tonight!

Never mind then.
I had just wanted to clarify that I'm not angry or upset, for it sounded like 10K thought I was, and that such was insulting to him.
I'm looking forward to see what people get, because from knowing this site, I tell that just seeing what people got will be as fun as getting things.
I'm not some other person, trolling or being an ass,(there is no point in me doing that, its just stupid) I was seriously just trying to explain my humor, because I know that it doesn't always translate to text well, so that I could enjoy being on the forums.
The picture was simply a literal gift, for you can get enjoyment out of just a simple fun to look at picture.
I'm a silly, fun person, don't assume anything negatively.
That's it, lets have fun.
Its Christmas time!!!

[Ex Leper]

I think Pram made a new account

[Grislygus]

would someone tell Mother Theresa's hippie sister to calm the fuck down

I try to do this to make it obvious that my statements are in no way the negative way they could be taken, but the positive joking and fun way I do mean them. If I'm not being silly about something, just imagine I'm just speaking normally like talking to a regular friend.
Also the revolutionary thing was about trying to make Thanksgiving a meaningful holiday in society, and not just that thing with the food in between Halloween and Christmas where people just go through the motions of it without truly thinking of it.

I know I've wrote a lot about something that might not matter, or just be a simple misunderstanding, but it was at least fun to write so why not? I really do hope things get better for you 10,000 Volt Ghost, and as a gift from me to everyone, please, on my behalf, enjoy this picture:


Have a merry blue footed dancing birds-mass

If you've been a member for a month and you're already writing long, rambling posts to apologize for crap (that makes no sense, I might add), then you may not be right for an online forum.

That, and the out-of-place bird picture really outs you as a total weirdo.
