Probably due to the fact that every weekend from ages 9-12 I would stay up all night playing video games while eating bags and bags of Warheads, resulting in a completely torn up sore tongue for the next several days.

NOT-ACTUALLY-A-SECRET-SATAN-GIFT POST!
I got a text from Javen that I had received a package and I come home to find THIS! (no it is not a penis)
Whoo-hoo! Stuff! Look, air bags, everything I've ever wanted!
Wait a minute. These notes say that one of these presents isn't even for me! What a rip-off!
Note 1: GREETINGS SHERI. Amazon was being finnicky about your address, so I hope this package finds you. This book is for you. Consider it COLLATERAL SATAN DAMAGE
Note 2: Could you pass these along to Javen for me? He's the last member of Operation: Satan Pay Back Happy Holidays ~ B.C.
Holy cow, extra shit!
Warheads for Javen, and The Art of the Disney Princess for me! I've been looking at this book for, like, a year and haven't gotten around to getting it. Thank you, B.C., you are the best not-Satan ever!

I nearly walked into my wife when I came into the apartment this afternoon, as she was leaving to go get some coffee with friends.
She says "Hey, you got a package. It's in the office."
A package.
What my dear sweet wife did not realize was that in fact, it was not just a package. This box was a messenger, and its delivery was pure literary genius and unfettered knowledge.
I was sure of my footing as I approached the box, sent without much fanfare from Houndstooth, Alabama.
My breath was steady as I cut the packing tape, but as I removed the great tome within, my hands began to shake.
Inside were two books.
No, that's not right. It was much more.
It is one book, but seven novels by one of the Fathers of Science Fiction. They are wrapped in a gorgeous leather bound anthology, resplendent in lush purple and silver sides.
Within, the following:
The Time Machine
The Island of Dr. Moreau
The Invisible Man
The War of the Worlds
The First Men in the Moon
The Food of the Gods
In the Days of the Comet
Look closely and you will see that the brilliance inside is so great that it even shines through the sides of the pages.
If there's things I love more than science fiction, it's weird trivia, the crazy shit people believe and debunking stories of the "unknown". Munkus has somehow found a book that encompasses all of these things.
This book is like every conspiracy theory and spooky story thread we've ever had all in one place, plus tons of wacky trivia.
Since I don't have a pet, let's see what Robert Downey Jr thinks about the gifts.
He seems impressed.
Thank you, Munkus, this is awesome and I can't wait (after I finish reading the books Langly gave me), to dig in.
Also, did you know that I never knew your first name before now?
It is not common knowledge!
I spent a day buying Christmas Presents and found your two masterpieces in the book store. I'm really glad you enjoyed them, it's always a risk buying something from a person's "theme" and not their actual wishlist.
I also had a zodiac lighter that they wouldn't let me ship because it had lighter fluid in it

Oh goodness that thread title
Anyway, after a very long and very busy week, I have returned with the second half of my gift from BusterK!
Unfortunately without pictures this time because I got a new phone and it's dumb as hell getting pictures off of this thing.
I open this magical new box to find...
Fudge! With and without walnuts- oh god it's so good
Harvey Birdman Vol. 1 DVD- YES. I Birdman
Conan O'Brien's 10th Anniversary DVD- Who doesn't love Conan? Only a silly goose would hate Conan
Gameboy Advanced games! Four of them! Super Mario 3 and World, Earthworm Jim and Advanced Wars 2
and mix CDs! I've listened through them and I've learned we've got pretty similar tastes in music. They made for a great soundtrack while sketching.
Thanks man, these are pretty awesome gifts that I will probably enjoy for a long time.
Except the fudge, because that probably won't even see the end of the month :B

I don't like this, Kusu. Your person will get their gift before the actual deadline don't ruin the surprise for them

I did not get a satans present today.
I also didn't get one from work, slightly annoyed by that one.
Being in Ireland, I can assume they're potatoes, some kind of alcohol, more alcohol, a four leaf clover, even more alcohol, a leprechaun, and a nice hand carved shillelagh for beating up the English.
Last year for Secret Satan on another forum, Sporky sent me 72 Kinder Eggs. Which we then found out were banned because they rifled through that package, stuck a "this is contriband" note to it, than sent it anyway. Pretty funny. And oh my, the toys!
I was shocked with how little it cost to send a catering pack of Kinder Eggs trans-Atlantic-ly compared to what I was expecting.
And do you have any idea how long I've had the plan of sending you those for a secret santa? Ever since we started doing them over there I've had the idea but it never came up, and I wasn't about to rig the thing.

The one about the fucking space hairdresser and the cowboy. He's got a tinfoil pal and a pedal bin
Yay, a box was just delivered and it was apparently only part 1 of my 12 billion part Secret Satan's gift. Two books, Alas, Babylon and Earth Abides. I can't wait to sit down and read them both. Thank you very much Secret Satan.
You're welcome As I mentioned, they are two of my absolute favorite books... I hope you enjoy them
There's another box that is likely there already.
So yeah, I will send more after the holidays, too... I just wanted to get you something before getting you something for my birthday.
we don't get our bonus until bloody march, i believe
if at all
today we get pizza & pop though. that's uh ... something ... i ... i guess.

Yeah, no bonus here either. Which is funny because they just had an analyst call with Wall Street and made it sound like my company is kicking serious ass and coming out of the recession like we're Superman.
Yet we're too poor for bonuses...unless you're upper management.

My tongue just tingled reading about them.

I have icy hot for my back, a mark twain book and perhaps, the best of all, Kazaam now on DVD thanks to Operation: Satan.
Truly a gentleman and a scholar.

It's cool Sheri. Just upload the secret photos you took of Javen to the the regular place and we'll make the deposit into your account as per usual.

i hope i will be able to type up a post and take some pictures tonight Mully!
I didn't get a bonus this year
I was kind of counting on one
Need some stuff designed or printed? I can help with that.
So at least now I don't have to figure out what Christmas dinner is!
It would have been nice to know about it before hand though.
Then maybe my flight this evening would get in before midnight.

That wasn't part of the present, I just didn't have a cat, so I included RDJ in the proceedings.
Did you at least get a subscription to the Jelly of the Month club?
Because, as you know, it is the gift that keeps on giving.
