Merry Christmas!

So for those that celebrated, I hope your Christmas is going, or went, well.

What did you all get?

Re: Merry Christmas!

That's awesome sibelius7. I hear those don't come cheap.


Booze. I totally agree, and it was the exact same for me this year as well. Wasn't much into it, kind of sickened by the mindless spending, and so I didn't even ask for anything myself. But I ended up getting a cell phone, which is terrific because I can keep in touch with my girlfriend now. So it turned out well for me. Hope you enjoy the season anyways. Take care.

Re: Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas to all.

Even though i don't celebrate Christmas I too think that the season was over celebrated before it even begun. I hardly used to see Christmas mentioned on the internet except the 'Happy Holidays' messages like this one but for the last couple of years i am seeing it more and more of it on the internet. Is got so bad there's a Google Earth Santa tracker.

You didn't have one already? Was the question the sales man asked when I went to get my first one at 18.

Re: Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas everybody! day late though.. was busy yesterday.
As for what I got, it was the first christmas in a long time that I didn't get something computer/videogame/tech related, which is definitely nice. I got a coffee maker I've had my eye on for a while, featuring a grab and go travel mug instead of a coffee pot. Then the standard clothes/money/gift certificates/beer/socks.

I'm also the only 20 year old I know who doesn't own a cellphone!
