Yeah, the topic pretty much cover it.

I would like to hear what my fellow Escapist you like to have, or give, for Christmas?

Begin! :)

The best Christmas gift for me is easy, I would love to be with Tom for Christmas instead of here in the US. He's my fiancé and he lives in the UK. :/ So wish I could have been there, but got a new job and don't have the time yet to take. :(

One scaled to the person you are giving it to's interests, of course. Bonus points if it has a personal spin from you on it, such as something from a hobby you enjoy, but with a theme they will.

Incidentally, I dislike receiving gifts personally.

Christmas in my family is pretty efficient, since we just e-mail a list to everyone and then coordinate who gets what. makes shopping easier and no one is ever disappointed with gifts.

BUT this year i'm getting my dad a sweet harmonica, something that is not on his list (mostly because i bought it before he sent it out). he was talking to me a while back about how he used to like to play a lot back in the day, but hasn't had one for a long time, so i looked online and found a really good one for $30. pretty sure he'll be pleasantly surprised

as for the best kind of gift i like to get, really anything gaming-, movie-, music-, or book-related pleases me.

Gift cards. They're small, easy to use, and say "I have no idea what it is you like."

It's the perfect gift, especially in my family.

Nerdy decorative items/things I will actually use!

ie A lightsaber wall light. EL wire to decorate my room. Games. Books. Dvds. Music (although I prefer vouchers now! People struggle with my prefered music tastes!)

Things I dont like, gizits with no use! Ie Small games and puzzles that last a few minutes and arnt used again!

What I get others: Small simple gifts based on something I know of them! Ie, they drink exotic hot drinks? A tea variety tasting set! etc!

I'd just love to be with my boyfriend, that is really what i'd like. Can the great escapist clause help me with that? (would be hard because you'd have to change the minds of a few extended family members)

Wait, you want ME! I am not for sale! Unless you have candies, then we may be able to work out a lease.

Well I'll be getting a new laptop after the other bastard finally gave up the will to live. But my ideal would be a death ray.

A Real working Tardis or if you want me to say something more easy to obtain a Tom Baker Doctor Who scarf.

The gift of shopping: IE money.... NOT GIFT CARDS (money is superior in the sense it can be spent anywhere)
