I just want to know what kinda stuff people got for Christmas this year so go ahead and share. Are you going to return it tomorrow? Do you love it? Expected something more? Was the first thing that came to mind "Cheap little Son of a <beep>!?" ?

xD Nothing like getting hammered on Christmas? I thought you were suppose to do that on new years? And wake up and be like "What the hell happened, why am I in a bed with 3 other guys?"

One does not exclude the other ;)

I never woke up with 3 guys in my bed (I am 30), so I am confident it will not happen this year! :lolflag:

Just cash... I never really bother to ask for something because any time I do, it's something I don't really use. I plan on building a new PC from some parts I have lying around and some from NewEgg with the money though. :popcorn:

Got clothes, money, money, money, and some small items. I'm still thinking of what to get for myself. I want an mp3 player but those things make me oblivious. I just bought a pair of nice Philips in-ear earphones that I use with my lappy and it's already isolating me from other people. haha

My mother wants me to be the sole owner of all of her stock mutual funds. She was feeling maybe too generous. As they say, it's the thought that counts.
