Well, I got a bowtie, a Doctor Who shirt that says Bowties are cool (a joke between me and my sister in law who hates bow ties). I got a new pair of shoes, a small art kit, socks, and a precision screwdriver set. I also got some legos, a 990FX Sabertooth motherboard, and 16 gigs of DDR3 ram. Oh and Pajama Pants.

All in All, it was awesome.

My girlfriend got me a West Ham shirt, the new Adventure Time DS game, Plants vs Zombies, a 3D bracchiosaurus cookie cutter, a pacman mug, and...

Less net value than I put in!

Hate to break it you kids, but Christmas generally becomes less economically efficient the older you get =\ (especially if you have kids and/or shall we say "promiscuous" siblings)

(Now that I think about it, "promiscuous" has been innuendo so long that most people don't even realize it is innuendo, that's just what the word means now, pretty interesting, when you think about it.)

On a more serious note, I got some wedges (yes, wedges, that's not slang for anything, I literally mean a wedge, a triangular construct for holding something in place, two of them, to be precise), a mug, jellybeans (my favourite!), a chocolate orange (tradition!), headphones (probably going back to the store - they don't exactly fit my needs) aaaaaaaaaaaaaaand... that's it actually.

I got myself Borderlands 2 and all the Hitman games (I played the first one back when it came out, and really enjoyed it, I don't know why I never followed the series tbh, guess I didn't have that much spare cash back then). Though, I suppose that's more "taking advantage of steam sales" than "getting myself a Christmas present".

A new controller for my PC since my old one died a mouth after the warranty ended and a jewelry box with pink hearts all over it from some relatives who know nothing about me. I have no idea what I'm going to do with it but the thought was nice.

Eddie the head said:
Why did you capitalise the first letter in ever word? I wouldn't have noticed other then I saw this thread right next to another that ask the same thing but didn't use caps.
That's how you write titles. Wouldn't have capitalised the 'for' though.

OT: A Levi's trucker jacket, Farah Vintage T-shirt and a pair of Nudie Jeans. All glorious clothes that I'd never be able to fucking afford now that I'm a student. And then some dolla and chocolate.

A few books (Assassins Creed, and Skulduggery Pleasant: Kingdom of The Wicked) Red Dead Redemption and a black Tokyo T-shirt with an orange sun on it (I Love it :D). Got less then the last 2 years, but that is because we are a bit short on money. To make up for it though I'm going to a Neil Young and Crazy Horse concert, and visiting my home state to see my best friend!

That makes up for it in spades.

Let's see:

-Several semicasual long sleeve button up shirts that actually fit my frame (they're stupidly hard to find around here)
-Good quality leather attache case
-4GB Samsung MP3 player to replace the worn out one I've been using the past five years or so
-Boxed set of "A song of ice and fire"
-large and unusually thorough first aid kit.

I'm quite pleased with the haul, but I suspect my kid self would be bored as hell with it.

A Napoleonic memoir, a copy of Eisenstein's Ivan the Terrible and Alexander Nevsky, and some clothes. Pretty much the things I asked for (though the Eisenstein collection and and particular memoir were a surprise, as they are fairly hard to find and can be pricy.)
