Hey Satan
Just a reminder I'll be out of town from the 20th til the 27th so if your gifts don't arrive in the next week, I won't get them until after that.
OH SNAP! I got relayed word that apparently the scotch glass *was* from my Satan! Just for whatever reason did not include any satanic information. Sorry for the confusion in the chains, and THANK YOU SATAN, I FUCKING LOVE IT.

Do you remember when you posted about it originally? I don't have a backup since before I swapped out your gift postage.
The one about the fucking space hairdresser and the cowboy. He's got a tinfoil pal and a pedal bin
I really hope I can afford to participate next year.
Dude I have a Slinky and a Rubik's cube on my wishlist...
It's the thought that counts, not the pricetag!
No, I definitely get that. I kept it pretty simple when I participated before. It's just that most of my jobs have been pretty transient, and I'm used to the end of the year being really bad for work. I wouldn't have even been able to cover what Sara paid in shipping this year. I already made the mistake of signing up for a forum battle when I knew I was going to be between places to live one year. Not gonna deadbeat a Satan.
That's me, always throwing a wrench into the works
Amazon promised me a Wednesday Blitzkreig of gifting randomness but look what happened. Tuesday and Wednesday. Pshaw. Christmas is ruined for me.
Now I need three times as many gifts, Satan. You can blame Amazon. Or Usagi. Or my greediness.

I'm definitely of the opinion that if you're not sure you'll be able to afford sending something, especially taking possible international shipping into account, you're better off not signing up.
But also if you're not signing up for purely financial reasons, you should sign up for secret saints!
Just did our office Secret Timmy exchange. I was gifted:
1 bag big league chew, 1 iron man pez dispenser, 1 bag of chocolate covered pretzels, 1 harley davidson motorcycle calendar, 1 eye spy weird thingy, 1 magic trick, 1 book of magic tricks (with wand!), Enter the Dragon on DVD, AND....AAAANNND....a Justin Beiber poster.
So apparently Robot Santa doesn't care if you're the world's most regular poster or some sorta shifty lurker!
It seems appropriate that Butters should slip away though...
Well, to be fair...
Well he sneaks around the world from Kiev to Carolina,
He's a sticky-fingered filcher from Berlin down to Belize,
He'll take you for a ride on a slow boat to China,
Tell me where in the world is Butters Sandiego?

Oh man, chocolate covered pretzels. I used to eat so many of them in secondary school. I think they were called Flipz or something. But I haven't seen any for years and years.
I found a wee stall at the market in town which sells American foodstuffs last week, and I searched with some excitement, but alas there were none.

Everybody shut up! Sorry, that was rude, but aaah, I got another box!
And it came from fricking miles away. How exciting!
The box came with complementary bubble-wrap. Amazing! I already know I will get at least an hours entertainment from this box.
Oh my gosh so many things! And in absolutely lovely wrapping paper. Seriously it's so nice and textured and fancy.
I got stickers! Of a bird who apparently works as a postman, and a tiger who is just nuts possibly as a result of smoking opium?? And some trees. So cool.
The smallest wrapped thing was a neat embroidered spider badge. I can only assume the skull and crossbones is a warning that it is highly venomous, so I handled it with great care.
What's next? Keyboard paper? Wow I always wanted... uh... what the hell is keyboard paper? Apparently it's note paper you insert into your keyboard so there is NO WAY you're not noticing those notes when you go to do computer stuff. I can't claim to understand it but it's adorable and I'd love it just for the slogan on the packet - "Goodbye dark circle - hello raccoon!" What? Who knows! Koreans!
Next is a CD of classical music tracks which is awesome, because I love classical but I never buy any because I don't know anything about it.
Aaaaand socks. With aliens on. This is pretty dang convenient because I destroy socks and never have enough. I have actually asked my parents to get me some socks for christmas, but I know they won't get me any with aliens on!
And finally the biggest thing. Hard to make look exciting in a photo but it is a beautiful sketchbook and oh my god do I love new sketchbooks I rubbed my face all over this when I unwrapped it.
And on top of all that I got a card with some cool Korean art and a Korean recipe on the back which is awesome and i will definitely be trying it out asap. Getting hold of the required flower buds will be interesting I think.
Thank you so much @Lost Salient! You are really, really good at picking gifts, these are all wonderful. Sooo happy with all the crazy Koreanness.
And the note in the card said I'm getting a third package as well and I just cannot deal, I am overwhelmed, thank you again!

not one bit

No pressure!
Need some stuff designed or printed? I can help with that.

I think I get too into this stuff.
No, I definitely get that. I kept it pretty simple when I participated before.

I'm not sure there's a too much.
Getting nervous, I really hope they were received.
have they logged in??

I...I don't want to know what that means.
But I am 100% sure that is not what I am referring to.
