What did you get for Xmas?


Recommended Posts

Hover at your own risk! :p

I woke up to Mrs. Claus playing Santa's flute. :woot:

me too, how weird is that.

I got money, new gaming headset, clothes and an icp blanket for my bed.

Got my parents a Windows 8 RT tablet and when the pro comes out ill just take the RT and give them a pro.

Got a WDTV Live, a SSD drive, and some cool Vans shirts from wife and son. Got a pretty nice gift card to Bed, Bath, Beyond from my mom and some various gift cards (Target was popular in my family this year) from other family members.

The best, though, was watching my 3 year old open his Santa gifts (Transformers Rescue Bots, Batman stuff). After 11 months of my boy asking for the same things over and over, the fat ****** came through ;)

By my family's standards we cut way back this year and it turned out to be a great decision. Minimal stress and lots of fun time together.

I got my dad a 60 minute flight in the back of a 2-seater 1941 Tiger Moth, can't wait for him to go :)

Did that for my dad's 65th birthday at RAF Duxford, totally awesome, he loved every second of it, we still call him Biggles!! lol

New system:

Bad Kitty, Why didn't you get a Mac with a real CAT on it? Oh wait! Kitty is a gamer....thats why no OSX for her :)

Best of luck with the new year kitty.

my gf and I have a shared bank account (next to our personal ones) and this year we decided to use up the money on it. i bought myself an nexus 4 and for her a samsung series 9 ultrabook with an external asus monitor and a nice little mouse. very neat device that samsung is.

AMD FX6100 3.3GHz Six Core Processor, Motherboard and 8GB RAM

Logitech KS360 Wireless Keyboard

Nokia Lumia 800

DVDs:

Mrs Brown's Boys Series 2

Mrs Brown's Boys Live DVD

TED

The best of Family Guy

Boxer Shorts

T-Shirts

Money :)

I got my two front teeth. :laugh:

That is the one thing I could really do with actually. I have a large chip from each of my front teeth, so it looks like a huge gap. :laugh:

Me, what did Santa bring for me I hear you ask.

Sweet Fanny Adams is what I got.

Got a headache though from downing 10 pints of Guinness with the lads and ladies xmas eve.

So that is all I really got, a head ache.

I want one but money a bit tight right now...lol...

Maybe a MacBook when I travel more...

    • Why say “Retarded” then? Lol 
    • If you don't care to read what I said, then you prove my point. Maybe written media is beyond your attention span. Titles are not summaries my friend.
    • Nobody asked... in fact, I said "I don't care about political leanings"  
    • TLDR. Here is a far better title (just a basic example): Windows 11 26H2 to allow disabling Web search results
