I did some Xmas shopping today and ordered some stuff. So when that arrives I will have everything for my dad and family secret Santa, everything for my bro and some of his gf's stuff. Oh and a toy for their cats. Just got to sort my mum out now. Damn her being so hard to buy for.
Also spent more on myself than on other people while shopping because I picked myself up a reflective cycling jacket and new wiper blades so woops. At least I resisted buying the book of patterns for knitting dinosaur toys that I saw.
Cards Against Humanity let me explain to you that when you say you will send me 12 things for $12 dollars and I pay that money I expect to actually get those things
Like, do you know what a business is

Sounds like they got twelve of your dollars, so...I would say they know exactly what a business is! :rotate:
It's a non-stick baking mat. You put them on a baking sheet and can cook whatever you want, up to 480 degrees F. You can also use it to roll dough and stuff.
ohhhh
I thought you had gotten them cookies or something
That's a good idea actually. I have enough gift money left over to get everyone cookies!
Maybe I'll surprise everybody on Christmas day by pulling out shit tons of cookies.

On a more serious note, my gifts have been showing up in spurts. One or two days will go by with nothing, and then I'll get several of the envelopes at once. Could be some screwy USPS stuff that's delaying them.
so, gifty question - we're broke and so we are giving food gifts, our exchange is on Christmas Eve... it's down to either cookies or I could make a Christmas breakfast kit with proofed cinnamon rolls, bacon jam, etc to be made the next morning or the rolls could be frozen for a later time

which would y'all rather have?
Cookies, presented nicely, can still come off as a "we're not broke" gift.

I'm not certain anything else is going to top that this year.
Dooooooope

There's some more secret satan stuff which hasn't arrived here yet, as well as friend gifts, and some more dad-targetted stuff.
I am of the persuasion that if it isn't shiny, the gift wrapping isn't being the best wrapping it can be.

just 4 u
I will be gone from December 24th to 30th
If your package gets here during that time, my neighbors will grab it and set it aside for me, and that's totally fine
I just won't be posting about it, for reasons of being a thousand miles away
Make your neighbors open it, take pictures, and provide commentary.

She's got someone staying there, 'cause she's in Germany, but she's totally rad, and would probably take pictures of her cats opening it
And if my roommate and I weren't back on the East Coast for nearly exactly the same span, then I'd have her do the same
Beef Jerky
Cheese Nips
Slippers
Oh god I hope someone gets me some beef jerky slippers full of Cheese Nips.
I made a bunch of deep sea fish and insects over the summer
Now it's a bizarre chain of paper nature in my room
I made a kabuto out of a newspaper at lunch one day and wore it around because at work they were getting silly about the hat rule again

Also home made cookies are always awesome.
Speaking of, I got a Christmas present in the mail today and it has already been stolen from me!
That said I will eat cookies like nobody's dammnn business.

I keep trying to take an adequate photo and failing

Awkward seasons is a go.
Not even just some kind of token gift?
Like I'm sure you have your reasons, but a little diplomacy can sometimes work wonders in just smoothing things over.
Nah, it's not really a diplomacy situation.
So you're rolling initiative then?
Now I'm rolling for willpower because my mom sent a preemptive guilt trip email.
+4 bronus to that roll.
