Christmas... Holiday... Presnent List Thread 2007

[Roadsterd]

Many Christmas' ago, I went to buy a doll for my son. I reached for the last one they had, but so did another man. As I rained blows upon him, I realized there had to be another way.
The doll was destroyed. But out of that a new holiday was born . . . a Festivus for the rest of us!

Absolutely, a festivus for the rest of us, get ready for the insults.

I don't consider myself christian or religious at all, so I feel strange celebrating Christmas. But real Christmas isn't about giving or receiving gifts anyways. But I've done it since I can remember and it would also be strange for me to just stop one year...

And besides that, I actually enjoy buying gifts for people. I like the challenge of thinking of something creative and that they will actually use. And I'd be lying if I said I didn't like receiving gifts as well. But I'd still rather just get things like clothes, gift cards for groceries and tools... stuff that I need or will use frequently.

I'm exactly the same way. I'm an atheist, and so is most of my family, but we've always done Christmas. For us, it's about family, being together, and giving and getting gifts.

I told my wife that next year, we're doing Festivus.

I couldn't think of much this year other then a few DVD's and a book or two. I did think of this though:



JR XS3 Pro. 10 model memory, end point adjustment, fully synthesized, etc...

Oh, and it has a licensed by MOMO steering wheel. ;)

I want to get fat off grandma's cooking. The problem is my aunt's husband's sister, her husband and mom + dad come over. Thats an extra six seriously fat asses at the table. We used to have left overs for days at thanksgiving, this year we were running out of everything on the first day.

Don't really want/need anything, the present thing is for the little kids. I just end up playing with little brother/cousins legos etc.

I also told my gf to go into the kitchen with grandma and take notes.

I am not asking for anything really... I am looknig for some money really.. It will either go towards the downpayment for the e30 I plan on picking up in the spring, or it will pay for the ticket out west so I can drive the said e30 back across the country. Other than that... I dont really care. i will be graduating from college, so maybe some neccessary apartment things.

It's probably worth noting that my family gives gifts like crazy. If I don't ask for something - I get junk. So, I ask away.

My family is the same way. Starting Dec. 1 I get calls asking what I want for Christmas. If I say "I don't really know" or "I haven't thought about it," I end up with Autozone gift cards or socks. I need extra cash for a ski trip this winter, so I asked for Simon Gift Cards (just prepaid Visa's) and cash for the ski trip.

I'm pretty sure my girlfriend is getting me a Canon Rebel XTi.....:p

Nice! I love mine. You might want to look in to the BG-E3 battery grip, it really makes the camera 'feel' better in your hands as the rebel is kinda small, and you get twice the battery life. On those same lines, I asked for a 530EX II and a nice monopod. Also an ipod since mine got jacked and a gift certificate to an upholstery shop so I can get my new white leather installed in the 'vert :)
