I won't be home til after NYE so maybe I'll have a fun surprise to look forward to

12/23/2015 9:29:11 AM

Sorry, forgot to post mine when I received it.



Thanks, SS! I love these cans; I used to have one but something happened to it. Glad I have one again. And you must have read my neighbor's mind, because he's been telling me I need to get a boot. I have a pretty good glass collection, but no boot, until now.

Thanks!

"I received mine today, a game of thrones ugly christmas sweater, its a little snug, but i still like it a lot , thanks SS!"

glad you like it! sorry the size isn't right. I actually FB stalked you (or what I think is you) to try to determine the size - I guess they run a bit small.

Also, thank you to my SS - I got a monthly subscription to Raw Spice Bar where I get some good spices each month in pouches and recipes to go along with them. I'd like to say that I'll make all of them and put them in the "twwers who enjoy cooking" thread, but I'm very lazy and probably won't live up to it - but I will definitely try to make as many as I can and post them there. Very thoughtful gift. Also, I had you last year.

12/23/2015 1:31:38 PM

for those asking - this was the GoT sweater (but in sweater form, obviously)

12/23/2015 2:48:22 PM

I'm a little nervous that the person I sent a gift to hasn't posted about it. Should have arrived today.

I haven't received anything yet.

12/23/2015 8:27:13 PM

No present for me yet

I'll be back Saturday or Sunday, so maybe I'll have something to report on then.

Merry Christmas y'all!!!

12/24/2015 12:27:12 PM

Mine should have made it by now. I hope that it did! If not then I'm sowy.

Yeah, mine should have been received by now. Last year I get falsely accused of sending diet pills; this year the present is received somewhere in oblivion. Or maybe Garner.

12/24/2015 4:18:47 PM

how hard is it to write in your own damn correct address people?

we are adults. we pay bills.

Well, TWW, it was a tough year for me last year.

My wife and I finalized our separation, it turns out that she was seeing somebody else for a while. I didn't get any of the jobs that I was hoping for. I got a little depressed and lost a lot of friends.

So, to no surprise it turns out that I didn't get any gifts or phone calls on Christmas, except of course for my secret santa from TWW! Thanks to my SS!

12/26/2015 12:08:36 AM

Damn dude.

Keep pressing on.

12/26/2015 12:53:26 AM

Yah man shit gets better. Glad you're still hanging round these parts. Merry Christmas Banjo Mane!!!!

12/26/2015 1:12:30 AM

I've been assured that all the gifts were sent. So if you haven't received yours yet, wait a few more days for the post office to catch up.

Also if you are worried that a gift was delivered and you aren't sure your SS received it, please let me know. I will check with them

12/26/2015 4:03:24 PM

I will say USPS has been really behind for my area at least. Had a 2 day priority package take a full week.

12/26/2015 4:09:13 PM

got my SS gift. much force. very disturbing.

12/26/2015 11:24:01 PM

My SS hooked it up with photo, of a photo, of a wrecked steam engine on the Southern Railroad, as well as a fold out map of the SR system in Virginia from the 1930s. Not too shabby. TY SS! I'll send you a gift sometime in the near future.

12/27/2015 5:22:26 AM

Still nothing for me

12/27/2015 4:21:00 PM

^SS said to check your apt office

12/29/2015 2:49:59 PM

I'll check tomorrow. Didn't get down there today

12/30/2015 2:16:10 AM

Well I went down to get my package....

I got one of these:




Unfortunately, I already have one of these, so it will be regifted:

12/30/2015 1:11:59 PM

Letting everyone know that you'll be regifting your gift...classy

12/30/2015 1:50:03 PM

^
probably uses an angle grinder anyways

[Edited on December 30, 2015 at 2:17 PM. Reason : /]

12/30/2015 2:17:07 PM

all those electric foot file things are inferior to the cheese grater style



only takes like a minute or two per foot

[Edited on December 30, 2015 at 2:23 PM. Reason : huge pic]

12/30/2015 2:22:17 PM

plus you can use it on some Parmesan

12/30/2015 8:00:48 PM

hahahahahah @ the cheese file

those aren't good for your feet tho...they cause calluses to form because they cut the skin (gross I know)

yup bbehe I'm regifting the shit outta a foot file

12/30/2015 9:56:53 PM

Okay, I get that, but what do you have to gain for announcing that in the thread? Why not a simple thanks and move on? You have bitched about SS for a solid three years, perhaps you should stop participating

12/30/2015 11:01:06 PM

They only cut if you go too deep. The cheese grater is king. Trust me. I'm a pro when it comes to foot calluses.

12/30/2015 11:15:48 PM

Ummmm just last year and this year...I like buying stuff for people and take the time to figure out what they'd like

Can't help I get paired with folks that don't

^NRR I hear ya...I keep laughing at cheese grater tho! You know it's serious business when you're sitting in a salon and you see them go at someone with one of those

12/30/2015 11:26:27 PM

My mail was being held but finally delivered today!

Thanks Santa! 30$ GC to REI so I can stock up on SmartWool socks!

1/2/2016 8:07:45 PM

can they get you your boobs back

1/2/2016 8:11:01 PM

^ what a dickhead comment. Are you really that miserable a person??





==============================

Hey, do you guys remember the time those people played secret Santa, and then didn't send a gift?


They essentially got a gift in the mail, and said to themselves " oh cool, a random gift that someone sent me....cause I'm awesome." And thought no more of it.

^it's pretty safe to assume that people are generally self-centered dick bags that give zero fucks about anything that does not directly and immediately impact their life

[Edited on January 5, 2016 at 11:59 AM. Reason : I'm also pretty sure that this thread does a good enough job of showing that]

1/5/2016 11:54:41 AM

klatypus never sent me my secret santa present

1/5/2016 12:00:47 PM

^^^ was that last year or 2 years ago?

1/5/2016 12:02:15 PM

2 years ago...I sent a present to shoot, he was an ass hat

1/5/2016 12:14:46 PM

I can't remember if it was multiple years, or multiple people

1/5/2016 12:25:10 PM

It was definitely multiple people.

1/5/2016 12:50:10 PM

There has been someone that hasn't gotten a gift for the past 4 years

I don't really get this bitching. Seems like her SS post-stalked her or something and saw she gets foot calluses. So that would make it a thoughtful gift...

[Edited on January 5, 2016 at 1:44 PM. Reason : ^ How we shaping up this year?]

1/5/2016 1:40:36 PM

it's a holiday tradition to have at least one fuck-up

1/5/2016 1:42:40 PM

who is it this year?

1/5/2016 1:44:15 PM

it was that asshole morty

1/5/2016 2:17:28 PM

Makes sense.

1/5/2016 2:19:05 PM
