What really won me Christmas was my fiancee's presents.
I got a real life book of WWII ration stamps, antique pennant from the school where I teach and a bunch of other really great goodies. But this is most definitely a very big cherry on my sundae.

Mine was sub par because I didn't actually open my box during it. There were staples and I had no tools...
On the other hand you have awesome gloves.
Got dem frog gloves. Now I'm excited for next year's Satans, if only to make the best unboxing video that has ever existed.
Challenge accepted.
If I were doing Satans next year, I would totally accept this challenge
and lose
I loved your video! And why wouldn't you do Secret Satan next year? It's the best.

I do not know who sent it, but I received today two things.
One: A red and white houndstooth pattern silk tie
Two: A massive, massive box of chili-cheese fritos
Thank you Secret santa man! I have a suit that will go well with the tie and as for the fritos...how did you know?
Humor can be dissected as a frog can, but dies in the process.
How are you enjoying those chooklets from Kentucky?
I love the way you say "chocolate"
No one ever does! Don't be a hero, I want an unboxing video!
The chocolates were gone roughly .0005 seconds after they arrived. I don't really eat chocolate but made an exception for a night of decadence - chocolate, amaretto and Battlefield 3. So good.
Ok, so I just got off the plane and got home to find a message from Australia Post saying that I have an international parcel awaiting collection at the post office!
I'll have to go down on Monday morning to pick it up. The excitement is palpable!
I'm going to be away this morning through Sunday night. Just wanted you to know so if you're one of the people in the thread going "I don't know if he got it!" you'll at least have a reason for my silence.

Got my gifts! This year was extremely hectic, I was out of the loop basically since November and I wasn't sure I'd even have a chance to get my gifts shipped. But I did, and I was home in time for the holidays and an awesome time was made even awesomer by you, mystery satan:
I got:
Lord of the Rings Blu-Ray/Extended/15 disc (15!?) boxed set (yesss),
The Hangover II,
Two awesome books: 50 Dangerous Things (you should let your children do) and Be the Coolest Dad on the Block
and as if that wasn't above and beyond, the real kicker to me:
this
It is a tungsten carbide wedding ring, which I really, really needed for my line of work. Tungsten not only is scratch resistant, but instead of bending and smashing your finger should it get caught in something, it will either hold form or break into pieces.
Can't say enough about how excited I am about these gifts. Thank you, thank you so much. And also, since Amazon wasn't particularly forthcoming about who you are (other than your real name on one of the packing slips) maybe you can tell us now?

That is a sweet ring, just be careful though. If there is a chance it may get caught in stuff, there is also a chance you may end up with a de-gloved finger.
Just GIS degloving, but not at work. And not if you're trying to eat...

THREE THINGS WERE INSIDE!!

So, in reality:
These will all be hung in my classroom. I know some of my students will get a kick out of them!
This was very surprising indeed.

My sis is starting her student teaching which means that our rent/water/electricity/internet is all coming from my salary.
In short: I'll be poor. So poor.
Took me a good twenty minutes to put two and two together.
Sounds like you should do the best Secret Saints unboxing ever next year.

They don't seem too heavy either so I don't think shipping will be that bad
but it'll still be some more time before I can send them out, Centipede Damascus
