Merry Christmas everyone! I've had a great day so far :)

Alcar...

Oddish 12-24-2005 12:49 PM

*eats given chocolates*

Wil 12-24-2005 03:11 PM

Technically it's something like ten minutes into Christmas Day 2005 right here, right now, so Merry Christmas one and all.

I, of course, am feeling thoroughly miserable. Goddamnit. Is it over yet?

Oddish 12-24-2005 03:18 PM

Why be miserable during Christmas, Max?

It's supposed to be a period of bliss and careing for loved ones. Mabey your missing something inportant.

metroixer 12-24-2005 03:38 PM

5 hours until Christmas here. Tonight I just seemed to put a hand against my stocking. I felt something bumpy. My dad caught me before I could pull it out though. DAMMIT what is it!? :P

Cullen Heath 12-24-2005 03:42 PM

YOU LITTLE CHEATER!:nonono:

metroixer 12-24-2005 04:19 PM

Leto 12-24-2005 05:58 PM

Christmas now/previously, huzzah says I.

Nice, lazy day at home. Poor bastards at Mobil getting triple pay working on this day, poor acne infested bastards indeed.

Nepharski 12-24-2005 06:22 PM

Christmas is still a few hours away for me. I get to open on gift on Christmas Eve.

Also, my friend next door is going to open my gift to him. It's one of those witty-sayings-every-day calendars, but I put it in an Xbox box, so...

*Evil grin.*

metroixer 12-25-2005 08:29 AM

MERRY L33TMAS! I mean CHRISTMAS! Sorry. Ever since I was playing my new DS game there were these hammer borthers speaking L33t. Great fun :D. I also got an MP3 player! HUZZAH!

Y'all might've heard this already, but...
MERRY CHRISTMAS, ODDWORLD FORUMS!
And have a Happy New Years, too. :p

metroixer 12-25-2005 09:22 AM

Ldies and gentleman prepare for another "Night before Xmas" remix.

WARNING: This is funny but very long so....Yea...

Twas the night before Christmas,
In the land of Odd,
Many were happy,
But not our for our odd hero. (Abe) Who wasn't relaxing.

Going to a factory,
Which was squeezing mud's eyes out,
He was very frustrated to do this,
He could have been home playing hideout.

He sneaked and he sneaked all over there,
Until he found before the boiler,
Something he could not bear,
who was it you ask? Oh it's quite simple.

It's good ol Slig Nick,
and he defines the word jungle,
Red suit and green face don't mach him musch,
But hey who cares!? It would look worse on Munch!

"Hey man can you move over?",
Said abe with some annoyance,
"Your on my naughty list",
Said the slig. "You need to die you...*Insert bad word here*"

Abe nevver thought once or twice on what he did,
he possesed ol slig nick,
and blew him up like all sligs did!
Before Abe went to the main boiler he realized something.

"Oh crap!" He yelled.
I ruined Oddmas for all the girls and boys!
So Abe did what he did best,
He decided to save Christmas, and give presents to the rest.

Putting on a red coat, and calming the flying slogs,
"This should be easy.",
He said to himself,
and then he went off.

Abe delivered presents,
All around the world,
Stranger was especially happy,
with his Lorne Lanning signed crossbow.

When abe was almost done, he looked at the bottom of his list,
"Well what's this?" He said out.
"Oddworld Forums is on the list."
So he went out to the virtual world. What people does oddworld forums hold?

So he went and saw metroixer first,
he gave him a pet metroid,
he went out with a burst,
Abe got scared of metroixer, so he went away.

Now there is Havoc!
On a good ol playful day,
He got a pet tiger, that talked english also!
Oh the joy Havoc recieved, when they destroyed the PETA.

T-Nex was next,
doing her RP'ing thing.
She got one of a kind pancakes!
Santa flavored pancakes to be exact!

Then there is cullen,
Who exploded when he saw Abe,
cullen just got his gift,
so abe then went and came,

Xavier he saw, being the mod he is.
Abe got something special,
all for him,
and oddworld movie DVD!

Oh what a surprise!
Containing extras,
Oh what a prize!
But what of poor Alcar, who never got a present yet.

Abe came up to him,
and gave him something he would not expect,
New underwear, all for him!
He sang, and danced in joy with a great hymn.

SM, Used:), and Daxter King got crossbows,
Splat got a special badge,
and Icarus got a lump of coal for spamming(:p),
Bad Icarus!Bad!

So then Abe went off,
and that's the story,
What will happen next year?
Who cares i'm playing with my pet metroid!

THE END

:D

Dark Elite_H2 12-25-2005 09:49 AM

|Hmm...interesting, metroixer. Nice remix with abe! :D

Daxter King 12-25-2005 12:10 PM

Woot I got a crossbow just what I always wanted. So yeah its Christmas been christmas for a while. So whad everybody get. I got guitar hero, a portable dvd player, a lava lamp, $100, and a hell load of games.

Dark Elite_H2 12-25-2005 12:24 PM

T'ain't gonna do a regular Christmas this year. It's gonna be 200$ from the folks, and goin' to the mall ter get our own christmas presies. ^.^

Scrab Watcher 12-25-2005 01:23 PM

Hope you all had/are having a nice Christmas. If you're celebrating it of course. I can't help but notice the difference between last years Christmas thread: i.e. no squealing/being exited/over-protective etc. about shiney new iPods. Bless.

:

*goes pale*

And can we stop inducing mental images of Peter dancing? I'll be (even more) mentally scarred for life. :p

Nollaig shona daoibh.

AquaticAmbi 12-25-2005 04:32 PM

Merry Christmas! Happy Chanukah! Happy Kwanzaa! And last but not least, merry Fishmas everyone! :D

I hope everyone had a jolly good day. Or if you're Jewish, 8 days. Or if your African-American, 7 to come. Or something like that. ^_^


I have new Christmas tradition with Luke: Replace random words in Christmas songs with the word poop. My favorite so far is..

You better watch out, you better not cry, you better not poop
I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is coming to poooooop
... He sees you when you're pooping...


Just imagine waking up to lots of little poop bits all under your tree by the fire... filling the room with wonderful Christmasy poop fumes. XD

Oh, and Shrink... Wow. Just wow. Funky-cool poem!

SeaRex 12-25-2005 06:32 PM

These Christmas songs hurt my brain.

OK, everybody spill it. Whaddja' get?

I gave myself an Xbox360, as a gift from me to me, for being such a good boy this year. From the folks and other family-type people, I got...
  • Fleece sweater and scarf
  • Poker table
  • Set of professional poker chips (In a heavy-ass metal case too... very slick)
  • Metal Slug 4 & 5 (Xbox - great old-school arcade action games)
  • Call of Duty 2 (Pretty intense)
  • Condemned: Criminal Origins (Mwuhaha... I hit drug addicts with a stick)
  • Quake 4 (A lot better than I thought. This game is what Halo 2 SHOULD have been: beautiful, yet mindless shooting that doesn't get too repetitious. There are some extremely minor frame rate jitters here and there... but the game is gorgeous)
  • And a Best Buy gift card (Which will become Aqua Teen Hunger Force Vol. 4)
Ambi got me the best present of all. An Israeli gas mask. Talk about unexpected!

Kimon 12-25-2005 07:35 PM

Gas mask... awww.... I got nothin' cool like that. SADFASE

I gots...

A new GRFX CRD, and Guild Wars, which I've been playing nonstop since morning. I think my eyes are bleeding. BAN DAID

Also, Eragon, some udder books, graphics novels (Kafka Komics), two hoodies, some shirts, South Park Season 6, Some Chuck Taylor's, and a poop sammich. Wonderfluous.

Cullen Heath 12-25-2005 10:06 PM

I had such a wonderful day!
I woke up at 5:00 and quietley went upstairs to eat the cookies and milk my brother left out for santa (would you prefer me not eat them and have him quit believing in santa because the food was still un-touched???).
Then I went back downstairs to get the presents from me to the family and, put all the presents from me to the family under the tree.
I waited for my family to wake up and we opened all the presents from everyone. We were all so very hapy with everything, especially my brother. He got absolutley everything he wanted. I got him a ps2, 3 games, 2 memory cards and, a controller. I also got him some other little things, but that was the main present. He was so happy.

I got such cool things, I got:
-A new sub-woofer with some speekers.
-A wacom touchpad. Its this thing where you draw on to this special kind of mouse pad and, the drawing goes straight onto your computer.
-This cool matress that is pure foam. So comfy!
-A great book called "Treasure Island".
-A very special painting, made by a very special person.
-The great reaction on the family's faces during Christmas and the good time I had with them today.
-And Last but, not least....Some Oddworld info!


The rest of the day, we went to the park and saw these cute little baby goats. We played with them for hours. They were so friendly.
Then it started to get dark so we headed home and relaxed, played with our new toys and, I hooked up all new computer stuff.
Now Im here on the forums explaining my great, Wonderful day.

Jesus Louisus! Where did you find the cash to pay for that?

Anyway, sounds like you still have the "Christmas Magic". Good for you. That went away when I was 15, which is real sad. Christmas just isn't the big deal it used to be, which sucks, because it was my favorite day of the year when I was young(er).

Well, you see, it's because:
:

It's supposed to be a period of bliss and careing for loved ones.

:p Nah, I'm just joshing you. I had a great day after a good night's sleep and a good morning's, er, gift to myself. Notable gifts may include, but not be limited to, the following:-

  • Futurama Seasons 1 and 2, and The Simpsons Season5 box sets.

  • A hairdrier and washbag. Nifty.

  • A lil' pocket diary. Still haven't finished copying up all the birthdays from the last one - bliss!

  • The soundtrack to Amelie.


And I printed off some variant rules to Uno the night before, and we all sat around the table playing them. :D

dripik 12-26-2005 06:28 AM

Merry Christmas to everyone!

I just returned from the usual Christmas trip. I got so far:
- a new watch
- an alarm clock
- a calendar
- some money to buy what I like.

The weekend was OK, except that there wasn't much snow here. At least it would be a nicer sight when I look out the window.

I hate you SO much right now :p.

Dark Elite_H2 12-26-2005 09:41 AM

Ahh, the MS4@5? I've played those suckers. Pretty darn-tootin' fun there you got, SeaRex.

metroixer 12-26-2005 09:57 AM

Yea but Metal Slug 3 is still the owner of them all. :P

Oddish 12-26-2005 11:43 AM

I got a mini mp3 player . It's one of those where you can upload music from downloaded files on teh computer. It's good becuase you don't need to pay for music, or it's easier to do it the illegal way, but whatever.

I got only ONE present this Christmas. Mabey I derserve only one, becuase I didn't get anyone else anything, not even a card. Santa has been watching me it seems.

Still, it wasn't very bad.

:p Nah, I'm just joshing you.

Oh right, I though you were serious. That's cool ;)

Heck, mine went away at 11. Shucks, sah.

graphics novels (Kafka Komics),
I must locate where you keep them and TAKE THEMS.

Dang, it seems like some people spend shitloads of money for Christmas. You's all rich pepples, I tells ya. Especially cullen. Damn.

Christmas was a good and relaxed day; As opposed to those days when I was a yungun and I would wake up at 6 in the morn and go upstairs wanting mah pressies, much to everyone elses (save my sister who is roughly the same age as me) dislike. This year I woke up at 12 (new record for any day, ever) and went back to sleep at 1. ^_^
