    Ah hell. I just realized I didn't write it in this year. Anyone who is taking part in Secret Satans can not take part (as an applicant to receive) in Secret Saints.

    secret saints @sheri :P
    solid saints will be around again ... but not now... that's a bit yet. we're starting to organize..

  • mullymully Registered User regular
    i guess it's a good thing not as many people are signing up this year - i take that to mean that less folks are having a hard time. i just hope no one is being shy.

  • joshofalltradesjoshofalltrades Class Traitor Smoke-filled roomRegistered User regular
    Are all the obvious ones signed up, @mully ?

  • FyndirFyndir Registered User regular
    If anyone is being shyer than me I will be legitimately shocked.

    Thanks for doing this every year, mully

    Ok, I signed up.

    Just sent in the basics, I'm still sick and can't think too straight.

    I've been absent because I don't like posting when I'm depressed. I do lurk around, though. Losing my job started a cascade of shit (which I know isn't an uncommon occurance). I am trying to stay positive and be thankful for the things I do have, though.

    I feel like a total turkey that I can't get my mom anything this year. Someone ran their big fat mouth and told her that I lost my job, which I something I was going to keep from her until forever if possible. So now she's constantly worried, which is something she doesn't need as she's trying to focus on school and her boyfriend who needs constant attention.

    So I'm signing up for her. She's put up with my constant, unending crap for almost 30 years. The poor woman deserves a Starbucks gift card or something (yeah, that's totally compensation for three decades of hell, yup.)

    Aw Marge I didn't know all that stuff was happening :(

  • ThreeCubedThreeCubed Grandma Winky's fat ankles Registered User regular
    Yeah it's been something. I know it can be a whole lot worse, though. Fucking company fucking going under. Fucking Chinese fuckers fucking everyone over.

    I'm gonna be away from the 23rd to the 26th this month (just now confirmed it), in case that info is needed.

    Thank you for running this Mully. And thank you participants.

  • mullymully Registered User regular
    Alrighty. Wanna be a saint and give some folks some stuff? Send an email to SecretSaintsPA. Details in OP.

  • ThreeCubedThreeCubed Grandma Winky's fat ankles Registered User regular
    Oh good Munkus got on.

    I'm sure he'd much rather have reported: Munkus got off.

    But we work with what we got.

    I will be on the other end of this thread as close as possible to the near future as I can get.

    And I will give all the secret gifts. All of them.

    Just a reminder to would-be saints: you don't have to give someone a Kindle or airline tickets or even a restaurant gift card to take part. Even a greeting card generally lifts people's spirits - a drawing - a small gift card to a grocery store or even just a pair of socks.

    PS Strange thing to feel the need to say given the thread topic, but please, keep any racism to yourself.

    about 5 inches

  • mullymully Registered User regular
    FYI to folks who've requested people to gift to -- I'm getting your emails, do not fret -- I will probably start handing out addresses Saturday. Busy busy week.

  • mullymully Registered User regular
    the difference between secret saints and solid saints is about $15,000

    A few things.

    1: Thank you @Larlar for mentioning this to me, as ironically I would have otherwise missed it completely having been in and out of the hospital for the past three or four weeks. The prospect of this has seriously brightened the season of what could end up being the second straight year of Christmas in the hospital.
    2. Gift cards are fantastic when they have a personalized message. I've been in the hospital many times and gotten many cards, and it would always brighten my day when I was visited by a friend my age in the hospital or if I got a card with a special message from the people I knew.

    Humor can be dissected as a frog can, but dies in the process.

    HEY GUYS SOLID SAINTS IN FEBRUARY -- WOO, AM I RIGHT?? WHO'S WITH ME. WOO!

  • JoeUserJoeUser Forum Santa Registered User regular
    Thanks again for doing this @mully !

  • FyndirFyndir Registered User regular
    I dunno what the etiquette here is, but I want to thank the mysterious Saint who both complimented my posting and gave me an Amazon voucher.

    Both of those things gave me big old smiles. <3

    Feeling sick today guys :(

    Had a lot of people show up for my graduation party (including my wife and kids) and one guest had the flu and another had bronchitis.

    I was glad to see them but also? Chemo immunocompromised me. So now I feel like complete shit and am trying to be a good parent and watch ballet videos with my daughter, who is fascinated by Swan Lake, and every time I try to snort in a breath through my congested sinuses and horribly sore throat, she tells me to "shhhh".
