What did you get for Christmas? 

Post#1 » by JWizmentality » Thu Dec 25, 2008 2:50 am

In total defiance of the spirit of Christmas, everybody can recount who felt sorry for you this year right in this thread. Don't feel ashamed to say how you got punked this year either. In response to the horrible way my girlfriend punked me last year (which I will not describe...since it was last year). Me and my buddies made an awesome cardboard cutout of a car which we completely wrapped. :devil:

Payback's a mean b***h!

Don't worry, I'm not a complete arsehole. There's a priceless trinket inside. :wink:


Worst Gift Ever!!

So far I have two shirts, the new Call of Duty, NBA 2k9, a pair of jeans and a Skins hat. I only get gifts from friends so I don't think I'll be getting much more but can't complain...

A WIN would help. :D

A VICTORY. :D

Maybe even a TIE.

Anything but another LOSS. :(

I would like to instead take this moment to wish each of you a happy holiday season and a
Merry Christmas to you and your families.

This is always my favorite time of year. It's a great time to get in the spirit and reach out to people, specially the ones that need us the most.

Now this Christmas got off the a bumpy start for me. Something happened last Friday that had me out of sorts. Timing sucked basically but I just got back from visiting my sick great uncle in the hospital and I'm feeling a lot better. Now I'm sure it made him happy that I stopped by on Christmas eve with a small gift but I feel like I was the one given the gift. And if it wasn't for that visit, I'm not sure Christmas would have came for me this year.

Count your blessing. Mend a strained relationship. Give and unexpected gift no matter how small. Have some forgiveness to a family member who has wronged you. Be there for someone in need.

God Bless.

Merry Christmas very one.

I got an IPOD, The Dark Knight, The Tempest in hardback, and cash. I'm just glad everyone in the family had a safe year, though. My and my fiancee got each other an XBox and some games a month ago that was our Christmas present to one another. Including Guitar Hero, NBA 2k9, and Eternal Sonata. Before my 'Christmas bonus' I have been pretty broke for the past month!

Hope everyone is having a great holiday, regardless of what you celebrate. God Bless.

and Go Wiz!

So far, my sister has gotten me the new blackberry. I've never had one, and really hope I don't become too attached to it.

Got tickets to 4 Wiz Games of my choice (which will all be later in the season when, hopefully, Gil will be back and the team will be bearable to watch), snazzy clothes, Old-School Orioles Gear, Madden 09, a few CD's, etc.

Pretty good X-Mas.

Yeah, never got the big deal over them. My daily planner suits me just fine. I guarantee this thing will probably serve me best as a night light.

So the list goes

Blackberry
Plush King size Wiz comforter
Tekken Dark Resurrection for PSP...sweet!
Dinner for two at some Italian Restaurant in the City I've never heard of.
Clothes


Pretty cool Christmas this year.

Oh man...it had to be by far the best stunt I've ever pulled. She was ecstatic...I mean win the lotto ecstatic. She was kinda expecting something since she got me good last year so she was on edge all day, afraid to open anything but when she saw the fake car she let her guard down. The best part was when she ripped the side and realized she'd been had. We even painted "Get real sweetheart, we both broke!" on the cellophane windows. In the end, she got a bat to destroy it and find the real present inside.

I do however want to file a complaint with Kay Jewellers, every kiss does not begin with "K". It begins with a series of Japanese expletives.

Nice. I guess if you had a prank for her earlier, she may have gone even crazier when she saw the car.

Good stuff.
