Just a heads up, looks like gbdavidx is not doing it this year so he should probably be removed from the list. My source is from reading his last post in the other SS thread.
I like Express - Medium shirts Interests include anything tech related 360, ps3, pc games tech books I'm being kinda vague, so put some thought into it. I've been here a long ass time. No gag gifts, please. Although I could use a new pair of jesus sandals...jk Also, no movies or music as others have mentioned.
Mr. Ali is right. I tried to post before 1 oclock, but that was when the site was having hacking problems Sorry to make things uneven, maybe lurker can buy 2 people gifts this year so he doesn't have to spend a lot of money on just one person
Size S shirt and I love bright colored (but not overly gay) clothing. A Tweak logo shirt would be awesome too! Also like keepin' it classy w/ Express and the like. I also enjoy playing guitar and piano. I'm also into circuit bending and weird electronic/digital stuff. Odd musical instruments excite me. Books are fun. Art stuff too. Gift cards for clothing stores are great too, just no iTunes gift cards. If you send me one, I know you're regifting. No movies either, I know how to torrent. But don't let that limit you, I've been posting for a long time. I trust you guys AND I'm okay with gag gifts, just as long as there's something else there too. Unfortunately, I have to have it shipped home instead of at school... keep it discreet. With that said, I'd still love a bottle of wine or some gin.
I like nerdy shirts (I recently picked up the monkey evolves into a man playing an arcade machine shirt). Size L Anything tech/computer related. Home depot gift card subway gift card McDonald gift card I'm not into any kind of reading material No gag gifts please
No gag gifts please. I'd rather be pleasantly surprised this time around. I've usually gone back through my recipient's past posts to find something that they've mentioned being 'into' in order to make my gift decisions, I'd appreciate the same done for me this year, or whatever you think seems like an interesting/thoughtful gift. No gag gifts please. Thanks.
-T-shirts - I like colorful graphic tees as well. Size M -Beer - Micros/specialty beers. Especially IPAs, Quads, Imperial Stouts, Imperial Porters, etc. -Wine - Malbec is my favorite, Pinot Noir, Cabernet Franc. No Cab Sauv or whites, please. Cab blends are ok, though. -Coffee - Specialty stuff, for espresso use. -Accessories for Wine/Coffee/Beer -Books - Non-fiction only. Probably not the best idea since I have quite a few in my queue as it is. -360/PS3 Games -Running stuff Edit: The most AWESOME GIFT IMAGINABLE would be a home brew kit. Though I think it is slightly out of the price range, at least for a decent one. Also, no gag gifts please!
no gags size medium, geek shirts but nothing from off topic or generic blatant logo shirts (which reminds me i need a new diggnation and totally rad show shirt. revision3 related apparel, or threadless shirt NO movies music or porn NO gift cards, although they are handy i prefer something with a little more personality from a member. I dont read books often but i do enjoy anything science and future tech I could really use a new hat or one of those beanie visor hats for winter. neutral/earthy colors only. no nike or namebrand logo type shit
No gag gifts Books: Antique/Early Edition/Old works of non-fiction please. Something that would make my book collection look even more pretentious. Edit: UNLESS you find a nice old copy of Dune. I've been looking for a good condition early edition for awhile. Misc: Computer tools or something useful for someone who's on the road a lot for work. Cooking: I do a lot of cooking so anything helpful in the kitchen would be nice. Spices, knives, bowls, pans etc.. Beverage: Tea, scotch or micro brews would be lovely. I'm a fan of loose leaf tea but bagged is fine. A good bottle of scotch runs over $25 in most stores so unless you're getting a deal maybe just forget about it. And beer.. I love everything from Heffeweizen to the thickest ports. I drink a lot of east coast micro brews so something good from the west coast would be a treat. I don't own a PS3 or a working 360 so no console games. PC is fine. Other than that, surprise me!
Lurker: You want in and was forgotten, or you don't want to participate for real? I added you in the meantime.
No gag/adult gifts for me, I have 3 small children at home. Don't buy me movies, I have a ridiculous movie collection so you would probably be buying me a duplicate. My shirt size is XL, PS3/Xbox 360/Wii/PC Games, Tech books (Someone bought me an Unreal Engine book in a previous year and I LOVED it), power tools (really any useful tools, except I just bought a fancy new soldering iron), love size 12 Puma shoes (even the cheap ones), not sure what else. When do we find out who we get?
Me! It looked like a pretty good book. I'm pretty sure most of that information will roll over for their next few engines. Their editor never changes much.
As soon as Tas received all the contact infos. Then the pairs will be done and you'll receive your SS's address.
I'm open to anything! Books- I'll read anything. Art-painting tools (water colours, acrylics, oils) , drawing tools(blending pencils, pencil set, easel, pencil crayons) Clothes- Size S-XS. No collared or turtle necks plz!! I love t-shirts! A T3D shirt would be perfffffff Zip-up hoodies, toques, scarves, long socks. Anything to improve the computer skillz An xbox 360 O I'm okay with gag gifts...as long as my family won't be able to tell what it is... An RS cable for my NES, Music DVD's, Fleetwood mac:The Dance (1997), Alice In Chains-Unplugged, Led Zeppelin-DVD...etc... Ed-it: Oh ya, what scooby and cauc. hammer said...any type of bong, pipe or cool smoking device is a-okay with me!
I like almost everything? Not really interested in clothing. And also no games, movies, books or music please. (that's what usenet is for lol). Maybe some sort of home decor? or anything nifty you find that I could show off to my friends, I dunno. I am terrible at asking for things :\ I have a pretty modern/contemporary asthetic going on here. I love crate and Barrel, or IKEA. I also like to put together electronics (soldering, reading wiring diagrams, etc) Also, I love Saltwater fishing, I do it all the time No gag gifts though. Gah I suck at this.
i remember the days of secret santa when we just dug through our closets for misc shit to send. and we were all content with whatever computer crap we got
Oh, guess I should post some interests too. Uh, like most it seems, I'm not really interested in gag gifts. I don't play games, don't need anything to wear, not interested in movies/music/software. Eh, be creative I guess, but I'm more interested to something that can be used more than once, somewhat practical things, but you know, not toooo serious. Have some fun.
