I got a leather wallet from a family friend, $25 EB gift card from one of my friends, a 4 pack of smirnoff double black from my parents and one of my brothers gave me Bioshock Infinite. My oldest brother ignored me completely.
I haven't got anything for myself for Christmas, i'm waiting until the day after boxing day (so tomorrow) to go downtown.

Some of the bigger things I got:
a Rebook Goalie Blocker
a cuisinart egg cooker
FTL, Baldur's Gate I&II, and System Shock 2 from Steam gift cards
Some shirts for work
Some money and gift cards
assorted candy
Actually a pretty good year for me. Now I'm looking to get a helmet and I'll be set.

Some nice clothes, some cologne, guess my family wants me to be a proper man.
Hey, I'll never turn down nice clothes.
Anyway.
Those, a couple of Gamestop gift cards, and some comic books.
All in all (or is it "and all"? Whatever.), I'm pretty satisfied.
Oh, and a copy of Braid from my good buddy. I got him The Stanley Parable in return.

I always feel like a jerk when I count everything up, but whatever. Merry (day after) Christmas, everyone!
-Precisely (I totalled it up earlier) $130 in cash from various family members, plus a $25 gift card.
-Gaming laptop.
-Various clothing: Two polo shirts, two jackets, one pair of jeans, five long-sleeve shirts, purple and grey striped silk tie, new shoes, new house shoes, Doctor Who belt, and socks. Whew.
-Otterbox, as a bit of a backhanded present, since I just shattered my old phone a couple weeks ago.
-KC Chiefs plush. (Long story. Started rooting for them last year because I had to pick a favorite football team for a school assignment (and wanted the worst in the league), but now they're good and I look silly.)
-Hyperbole and a Half's book, and Khaled Hossenini's And the Mountains Echoed, which I had not heard of, but looks like I will enjoy.
-iPod/iPhone speaker dock.
-Misc.: Headphones, umbrella, Brookstone Sand, laser pointer, gross Axe stuff, and way too much candy.
Pretty good, given that I didn't tell anyone anything I wanted. (Thus all the clothing.)

Got myself a fine quality Naval coat. The long kind. Think Jack Harkness minus the jawline and the desire for men and that's me now.
Well, when I lose wieght.
Also got the box set of The X-Files due to my constant defiance to the writing quality of post 2000 TV. Oh, and Cowboy Bebop.
My best freind got em a Binding of Isaac shirt and a signed copy of the playbook Ed McMillen distributed to promote
MewGenics.
Mind blown.

Help paying for my $240 a box contact prescription, a model rocket, a few games I can play with my wife, and a nice check from my grand parents which will immediately go into paying for school.
and to think I couldn't wait to become an adult... idiot!

I got 2 soft hooded jackets, 2 soft plain design t-shirts and a pair of Daffy Duck pyjama bottoms (pretty awesome).
I also got some nice popcorn and a bottle of Irish whiskey.
I might yet treat myself to a PS4 too...
