So, nothing big.
Just wanting to wish everyone here on this site a merry christmas!

Depending on in which country you live in, you're either on the 24th or 25th day of December now and also depending on country, you celebrate xmas more on one of the two mentioned :)
I am personally at midnight between the 24th and 25th while writing this!

Post your favorite present you got, or maybe your favorite xmas song or something else christmassy and once again.
Merry Christmas!

Kind regards
Guffe

I'm so God damn old (and you'll agree with me when I tell you what my favorite two gifts were this year).

Generally, I don't ask for things I need because I'm a GD adult and I can buy my own stuff. I don't have any desire/need to wait for Christmas to get a frying pan; if I need one, I'll go get one. However, this year, my Mum got me something that I never knew I wanted...

Microfiber Sheets

Holy...words....fail.....should have sent....a poet

This might be one of the cheapest (price-wise) gifts I've received but I am loving these sheets. They are silky smooth and they do a very good job at trapping warm air, something very nice in these cold (well....usually cold) Minnesota winters.

I also got a Blender. I am trying a bunch of smoothie recipes because I am working on not being a fatty and a nice fruit smoothie is a much healthier/better pickmeup than a pop. So far I've tried a base of Yogurt and a base of milk; Orange Juice gets its turn next!

...when did I become so old?

Well, I'm attempting to make a roast for the holiday. Nearly got set on fire when I went to light the pilot light, but luckily only my arm hairs were singed. Will find out in the next half hour or so if the roast is any good. Present wise, it doesn't look like I'm getting anything since the sorta boyfriend really doesn't like the holiday (he's Jewish), but I may get a gift card to Old Navy from the oldest brother whenever I next see him. Got that to look forward to I suppose.

Other than one of the latest episodes of Laser Time ruining most classic Christmas songs for me [http://www.lasertimepodcast.com/2014/12/16/laser-time-the-filthiest-christmas-songs-ever-made/], that's about all that's going on this year. May be able to see The Interview in a theater tomorrow, but that may fall through since he sorta boyfriend wants to see it with a group, but has made no moves contacting said group of people about it or bought tickets.

Anyone who can still pull off the Zimos look isn't that old.

This has long sounded Christmassy to me:​

Merry Christmas and happy holidays to the fine denizens of The Escapist.

My 'Christmas' hasn't occurred yet, but I'm spending Christmas Eve with most of my family in a new home purchased by my dad recently and working on furniture for my room. Present opening will probably be sometime around noon tomorrow, and I asked for Persona Q, so I'm rather looking forward to it.

Merry Christmas from sunny southern California where the weather is at frigid 15 degrees Celsius. I'm currently posting this at Christmas midnight.

Be safe and stay warm!

Merry Christmas to everyone who celebrates it. Chanukah ended two days ago, so my own holiday is over.
My grandfather got me the new Blu-Ray release of Cowboy Bebop. Probably the coolest thing I've received this year.

Merry Christmas to all, and to all a very beautiful night~

Also to ensure everyone has the best experience possible... here's a song to contribute. It applies to nature.

Thank you for reminding me that I oughta go buy that game instead of bumming it off of people!

Merry Christmas to everyone.

Favorite present(s) are usually books. Yeah, books are great!

My family actually left to Las Vegas starting... two hours ago, so Christmas day is kind of empty, funny enough. We're so good at holidays. :D No songs though, outside of the sweet serenade of keyboard taps.

What better way to celebrate Chirstmas than by watching The Wolf of Wall Street for the first time?

Merry Christmas y'all, I must drown in games and marvel films which I may end up hating, well by playing them tomorrow.

I look forward to getting up tomorrow and checking what the daily view count for "All I Want For Christmas Is You" will peak at, and the cumulative picture of the views is the most beautiful thing ever.

Merry Christmas everyone! Here's to another year of controversy, internet drama and "causes" for people to rally behind. Hope you've all had a great day.

As for me, I a Thinkpad laptop that's been pretty good so far and watched the new Doctor Who and was thoroughly dissapointed. Not a bad Christmas.

The merriest of Christmas's everyone from the green and balmy Buffalo,NY. What was that you said? Isnt Buffalo where they had 7 feet of snow recently? You are correct, but its all gone, and on christmas we had what appeared to be a tropical storm that sounded like someone was outside hitting the wall with a metal bat until 6 am.

stupid global warming

On the plus side, i got a new functional crockpot. Its gonna get real with turkey breasts and pot roasts in there.

man im old.
