I got a rock.:(

I really got a Vikings sweatshirt and a $50 Amazon card(which has been turned into a few Beatles CD's(Abbey Road, Magical Mystery Tour & Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band) and a Who CD(Who's Next).

The real present was that all the kids I bought stuff for seem to like what I got them so far.:)

Merry X-Mas!!!
 
Merry Christmas all, don't drink and drive!
 
My very own old chap with the white beard has really spoiled me this year!

Not instead of GT5, just as well as! :)


P.S. Congratulations, Moglet.
 
HIT THE LIGHTS!!! :sly:👍

 
Merry Christmas! :cheers:

I've had a great day so far and hope everyone else is the same. I got some new clothes and a water bottle with a filter, to use when I go mountain climbing/walking. My sister also got me a new Bear Grylls book, since I've finished the other ones of his I've got. :)

Ah, well, he actually got his own set up for Christmas too! :)

He'll use the rig when I'm not around, though.
 
Merry Christmas, all!
 
I got some cash last weekend but that's about it. I never asked for anything this year, however, so I can't complain.

I also need find a new laptop for my brother after it died yesterday. So yeah, most of the money I got will probably go towards that unless he decides to get one from somewhere.

Anyway, merry Christmas everyone!
 
Woo, I'm on duty for the second Christmas in a row. :p

Here's what I got for Christmas: A bottle of water, a packet of Crystal Light drink mix, a Rice Krispies Treat, a bag of Chex, a Nature Valley granola bar and a packet of Gushers. :lol:
 
Im sad my G27 is a know problem for the wheel not to stay in Aligment

I'm sure you'll have great fun with that setup! The Forza games are great with a pad IMO, so I can imagine they're brilliant with a wheel. ;)

I got NFS MW2012, a few DVD's, and a wild surprise present of... an iPhone 4S! I'm very happy with it, and while I was previously on the side of android, I prefer it to my old HTC Sensation. Had an all-round great christmas, really nice to spend it with my grandparents as well as my parents. Just a shame my Dad has to go back to work tomorrow. :(
 
The thread title reminded me of this: (audio only)

I was more aiming for the first line of this:

 
I got:
$150
$130 of Target gift cards
A book titled 'A geek in Japan'
A new PS3 controller
$15 iTunes card
Clothing

I personally think that is a really good group of gifts. There is one more thing that is on the way, which I am really excited for. My family has been trying to pass it on as a mountain goat from Germany for some reason, but I have a feeling that it is related to Red Bull Racing and Sebastian Vettel.
 
I hope the non-denominational fat man brought everyone some good stuff!

I got a new TV for my bedroom, it's a 32" Samsung which is pretty nice. I have my other PS3 hooked up to it too so I can get Netflix. To bad I don't have another 360, I'd really like HBO GO in my bedroom too, oh well first world problems right?

I also got some gift cards, loads of K-cups, and an Entertainment Book for the Grand Rapids area.

My girlfriend bought me a replica of The One Ring from Lord of the Rings. It's plated tungsten since a 10k or 14k one would have been a fortune, but it looks surprisingly like real gold.

These things are incredible. I actually just forgot I was wearing them, they're so light and comfortable.

And merry Christmas, y'all. Still a few hours before it's over here. Had a nice drive on the way up from NY and I'm feelin' pretty good right now.
 
I slept in to about 4pm. I got a Carl Sagan book and now I'm gonna spend the rest of the day/night syncing audio and video files.

Caught this picture of the little table in our kitchen, sometime last night. As you can see some of the presents were still not opened. I think everybody was too busy making merry and checking out people they don't usually see everyday. :)

Made me wonder how many families were electronically connected (via Skype, etc) throughout Christmas Day.

Today is Boxing Day - we were supposed to line up at the Pet Shop from morning to jump in and get the best deals - then decided to hang back and laze around at home, under the guise of letting those more in need get the deals. ;)
