10% chance of getting a Wii
...

Imagine on Christmas Day you went downstairs and opened up a present, inside it contained a note. "You have 10% chance of getting a Wii." That would make me sad.

But on the On Topic note...
A new amplifier (parents)
Dargon Age origins (Me)
L4D2 (Me)
Christmas clothes (Me)

And I'll probaly recieve about 10 tins of Quality Streets from the rest of my family.

Hobo 12-16-2009 05:38 AM

Not much. I want money so I can buy myself a bottle of scotch and an external hard drive. That's about it.

If you get the Left 4 Dead games on the 360 you should send me a friend request. I am OANST on live.

Josh 12-16-2009 09:05 AM

Naw, Steam is better. I NEVER get online games for my 360. I don't have live and it's usally better on PC.

Speaking of Valve games, when are we going to get some info on Portal 2 and HL2 EP3? Miserable bastards.

I'm getting This Mitchell And Webb Book.

Josh 12-16-2009 09:18 AM

They have a book out?

WHY WAS I NOT INFORMED OF THIS!?

shaman 12-16-2009 12:15 PM

Two Alestorm albums, a turisas album. A few new T - shirts ... and ODST!

How big of an External Hard drive?

I could give you a 320 GB one for the cost of shipping.

Havoc 12-16-2009 12:57 PM

I could use a new printer and some new furniture for my living room.

The bets part about PC players is that they never fail to be complete douchebags for completely unprovoked reasons.
Even if you were joking, fuck off.

enchilado 12-16-2009 05:02 PM

I will mostly likely get some ex-library books, some second-hand clothes and... wait... nothing else. I will spend my Christmas down at the almost-dry creek, panting in the blistering heat. Oh what fun it is to live in Australia.

Nah thanks, I specifically need reliability so buying one used isn't really an option. Unless you stole it.

Alcar 12-16-2009 05:56 PM

I would like I lot of things - but I've decided to purchase them out of my own pocket given their very expensive price tag.

For Christmas this year I've asked for clothing store vouchers (only Myers or David Jones! :p), and a pair of skins (above/on-knee shorts).

Alcar...

Not stolen, but I can buy it for $7.50 (from work). I planned on getting it anyway, so if it works I could just ship it. No skin off my back either way.

abe is now! 12-17-2009 08:59 AM

I want some money and a girl.

OddjobAbe 12-17-2009 09:35 AM

I think they had a special offer on blond Albanians in Tescos the other day. It might still be on.

MA 12-17-2009 01:10 PM

when i got there they only had Geordie's left.

i canna understand 'em.

Bullet Magnet 12-17-2009 01:12 PM

I didn't ask for anything this year, as I have for the past several years. There is nothing I want that I can reasonably expect to get, and not for because of price or difficulty of acquisition.

Why the hell would someone give you jeans for a christmas present?

I mean, gift voucher for clothes, maybe if they're unimaginative, but to actually go out and buy the item of clothing that is most difficult to choose and fit... craziness.

I frequently get jeans for birthdays and Christmas, just in time to replace the previous year's which will have been worn to bits due to near-continuous use. They fit me fine, but perhaps I am used to wearing clothes that don't fit. Since unwittingly and unnecessarily losing weight it has become difficult to find clothes in this nation of expanding waistlines. Thank Odd for belts is all I can say (and penknives for drilling more buckle holes!).

You can get 320GB harddrives for 7.50? Ship me a load of those son-bitches!

Mac Sirloin 12-17-2009 03:40 PM

There's only one. I've had it set aside for MONTHS, but keep forgetting to buy it. After my computer crapped out I had little use for it.

There's typically a one in ten chance of finding anything of use for recent computers there, but we have a pretty neat array of old electrical parts. That's kind of my specialty.

Taco 12-21-2009 04:01 AM

All I want for xmas is enough money to pay for my PPL... but that isn't very likely.

hidden 12-21-2009 04:26 AM

Heh, I'm getting my bro a custom Halo Lego man off Ebay, he thinks it's still in the mail and it won't come for weeks, but i have it right here. C: I'm amused easily. What's that sound, Oh damn those giant moths are flying into the window again. Ahhh Christmas time in summer.

But what do i want? can't say right now, murphy's law. Will probably end up with an interesting array of wall ornaments and 2 dollar notepads. At least I can use the latter. My parents have good intentions, you just have to be direct.
I haven't heard any rants on the comercialism of Christmas yet. Someone let one rip please. Amusment would be nice.

Rex Tirano 12-21-2009 08:31 AM

I've mainly asked for university Text books, Japanese food and cute merchandise. Like Rilakkuma:

I'm too studenty to buy my own text books. My hard earned Loan money is meant for alcohol and pizza.

I got my brother a Stonebake Pizza Oven and my Dad some aftershave and some books he's been hankering for.

I just want another DVD shelf and a stereo that I can hook up to my iPod. Maybe a game or two aswell, but I'm not really asking for much this year.

OddjobAbe 12-21-2009 09:20 AM

I've decided that I just want my two front teeth. Never mind socks or crackers.
