Merry Christmas, as it already is Christmas over here. Didn't get anything really exciting. Oh, and I tried to go on the other forum I frequent and was met with this-

Quote
GO SPEND CHRISTMAS WITH YOUR FAMILY!
If you don't celebrate christmas, just go ahead and give yourself a day off (you ****ing blasphemic queer)

Oh, turns out I got Red Faction Guerilla, which would be great if the thing didn't run as fast as treacle uphill, and crash at every opportunity. Update time, I suppose.

I know I'm getting Wario Land Shake It, because my brother accidentally spoiled it for me a few weeks ago. My parents bought it online, and my brother brought the package in when it came in the mail. He opened it because thought it was something he bought, but then he saw games in it and handed them to me.

I suspect I'll be getting nothing that I want. Well, two DVDs (The Hangover, and Inglorious Basterds), but I'm not much of a movie person, so they won't get that much use. Shirts, too, but I hate getting clothes. Always have.

I got THE pair of shows. The kind that opens a lot of vaginas, erm, I mean, doors.

Well then... Is this your fault, or the d/l rate from the host server? Because if it's the latter, dump them so fast.

So far I've gotten a TopatoCo CERTIFICATE OF GIFT which I will likely spend on a RAD TSHIRT OF SEPULCHRITUDE perhaps.

Oh, and a pocketwatch :3
I love pocketwatches.

Oh, and a bunch of other stuff.
Like a Kanji caligraphy set.
Um.
Yeah, stuff.

Ah, Spore. You will hate it...

Unless you like to create stuff. A lot. Then you'll love it.

You might be wondering why I know this... (http://www.spore.com/view/myspore/Bluhman)

I got a Wii, a really nice watch and a box set of Kids In the Hall.

Good stuff.

Unfortunately, our basement has flooded.  The open sewer doesn't help, now the entire house smells like ****.

I recieved

- A pillow
- Various clothing (the new Tool shirt I got being the only noteworthy item in this lot, my old one was all faded and shitty)
- Various chocolate
- Around 80 dollars
- Battlefield 2 Complete
- X3: Gold
- Red Faction: Guerilla

Still waiting on a present from my sister, she lives in another state so she has to mail it down.

Overall this was a pretty mediocre year, present wise at least.

-SNES earthbound
-A new Xbox (not 360) controller to play Stranger's Wrath again
-Charlie Brown Holiday special DVDs
-How the Grinch Stole Christmas DVD
-Jenga
-Deodorant

.......Jenga was the highlight. I'm gonna spend 20$ on an EPROM eraser, so I guess it wasn't a total bust.

Spore is the funnest goddamn game I've played in a while.
Makes me want Galactic Adventures.

So far that is proving false, but every time I get forced to build a new building I want to pull my hair out.

Also, somehow the only fun adventures I've played so far are Maxis's.
