    This is a wishlist/suggestion post which will be filled in in the near future
    Dear Satan,
    How is the weather in the North Pole? It's usually very cold there so I assume that's where Hell is.
    I've been a pretty okay boy this year, so here's what I'd like for Christmas.
    I am a nerd who generally likes nerdy things. I play a lot of video games, mostly puzzle, tactics/strategy, roguelike/lite, and RPGs (link to my profile in sig). I like tabletop games though rarely get to play with folks anymore.
    I also like anime a fair amount. I watch a lot of Star Treks, Star Warses, Marvel movies, cartoons, comedies etc.
    I don't read as much as I used to, though I really should more. When I read it's usually sci-fi and fantasy stuff. Some stuff I've read: the Wheel of Time, The Stormlight Archives, the Dresden Files, Broken Earth, The Expanse, The Locked Tomb, Discworld.
    I often enjoy cooking and baking.
    I play piano and sing. I have two cats that are basically my children.
    I wear a medium in shirts, and love thick warm socks in the winter.
    I have no food allergies (though I do hate coconut with a passion). I generally don't eat a lot of sweets and candy due to family history, but tis the season and I am critically weak against pastries.

    Once I finish curating my old bezoszon wishlist I'll post it here.

    It's pretty much the only gift exchange I participate in every year!
    Here is a wishlist post:
    Good evening, Satan. Thank you in advance for your kind consideration!

    This has been a weird year so my suggestions will probably be unusual, but rest assured that if you follow a few simple guidelines I'll be very happy with whatever you send! Those guidelines are:
    • Absolutely no food or drink
    • Absolutely no clothing items

    Let me explain.
    I'm getting weight loss surgery on December 14th, and it's the crazy kind where they just hook your esophagus directly up to your intestines, leaving your whole ass stomach as nothing more than an acid factory. As such, I won't really be able to eat food for a while, and when I can, it'll be lame food for a significantly longer while until my body gets used to the new deal and is cool with me eating very small amounts of whatever. The plus side is I'll hopefully lose a ton of weight - hence the no clothing items! If all goes according to plan my shirt size will change a lot over the next 12 months. That said, there are a lot of things I'd love to receive, so onto the fun stuff!

    I'm a 39 year old Australian dude (he/him) living in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. I have a lovely wife and a hilarious 4 year old son who was diagnosed with Autism early this year. I work as a graphic designer and project manager at a company that creates and wholesales art and activity kits. I just became a Canadian Citizen a month ago and currently we're planning on moving back to Australia in the 2nd half of next year so that my extended family can help us with our son and also so that my little family has any possibility of becoming financially stable during our lifetimes.

    Here is my Amazon.ca wishlist (I can usually cross the border to pick up mail from the US but I have yet to get my Canadian passport so I can't do that this year). Please note, that I'd rather huff my own farts than give money to Bezos, so feel free to use this list as a collection of specific suggestions and purchase things elsewhere. I won't be mad if an Amazon package shows up, though!

    I like to play video games - I own a Playstation 5, a Switch, and I'm about to buy myself an Oculus Quest 2. I also have a passable computer for playing games so things on Steam work too. My Steam username is "hash_pipe". I play a lot of Dungeons and Dragons, mostly in a local Adventurer's League group, and I also DM and write adventures sometimes. I wouldn't sneeze at a nice dice box! I like crafting and making miniatures and other things of that nature - last year Satan got me an airbrush and I haven't had a chance to use it yet!

    I will surely add to this over the next few weeks, so check back if you're not immediately inspired!
    Thank you, again and have fun!

    Alright. The deadline to give being the end of February has me deciding that I can probably still swing this. So I am going to hop in. I get too much joy from doing this (and missed it last year).
    Hello Satan! I am a 36 y/o cis white male on the East Coast of the US (Virginia to be specific). I enjoy board games and video games! My main games currently are FFXIV (I just started playing in August of this year but completed all expansions in 2 months, currently playing through again slower on a second character), Pokemon (but I am going to buy myself the new game when it comes out), and Football Manager. In general, I play RPGs and sports games. I own a Xbox Series X, Nintendo Switch, Steam Deck, and a gaming PC.

    In addition to that, I enjoy sports (baseball team is the NY Yankees, football is the NY Giants, basketball is NY Knicks. I also like soccer but don't really have a team, I don't really follow MLS or the PL intently enough, focus more on the international game (USMNT).

    I don't really watch much TV or movies anymore, unless the Xbox Series X plays blurays/dvds I don't have a player fyi (I do enjoy comedies and sci fi and stuff, like Star Wars, been dipping my toe into Star Trek TNG/watch it here and there but haven't really watched a whole season consecutively, just whatever comes on the Pluto TV channel)

    I wear size 3XL/4XL clothes. Waist is 48/50, 30 length for pants if you somehow end up going that route. As for board games, I have a modest collection (Splendor, Pandemic, Betrayal at HHH, Carcassone, Wingspan, Ticket to Ride) but am looking to expand that. My wishlist(s) have some board games on them, but if you think something looks fun, go for it.

    I work as an IT specialist/workstation support for the most part. About to lose my current job barring some miracle but am hard at work looking for something new. Basically wear polo shirts and slacks/khakis to work, so if you're thinking in that route, go for it.

    Uhhhh I like Mario, Sonic, Dragon Age, Final Fantasy 9/X are my co-favorites of that series, Hades...

    I have my own place finally so previously I would say don't go in for like collectibles but now I have a shelving specifically for that!

    Wishlist via Gifthero: https://www.gifthero.com/list/a1907095-d269-4352-aa41-80e0f3f301b3
    Or Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/VHNMMQVKH42B?ref_=wl_share

    EDIT: One thing, Satan: when shipping directly from certain retailers (so far WalMart is a big problem with this) my address auto-fixes/adjusts to just say "Historic District" and removes the street address completely. Try to not let this happen as I have had 2 separate packages thus far not go to the right place.

    🎶It’s the most wonderful time of the year….🎶

    Here’s the wishlist post….
    Dear Satan,
    Welcome to the end of another crap-tastic year. I promise, I’ve been as good as I wanted to be. At least I didn’t kill anybody, right? Anywho…on to the wishing, I’m sure you’re very busy this time of year.

    A little about me: I’m a nurse, well nurse practitioner now….guess I need to get used to saying that title instead. I teach in the nursing program locally, so I guess I’m also a professor? I have too many jobs 🤣.

    Anyways, I’m also currently a student and will be graduating with my doctorate (DNP) in May.
    I have five cats, four dogs…two Dobermans Ada and Cora, a chihuahua Coco, and Laney a mix….they are my fur children.

    In my spare time (haha yeah right) I cross stitch or play the occasional video game. I’m in a pool league on Mondays and Thursdays and have really gotten into playing that. I am a Florida State (FSU) Seminoles football fan. Also Dallas Cowboys football fan. My husband and I have recently gotten into going to festivals and music shows. I’m more into scene music, some hardcore.

    I don’t need clothes but if you were to buy me a shirt XL in unisex or 2XL in women’s. I have no food allergies (just ask my waistline) only thing I don’t like is watermelon (or any melon), orange, lemon, or lime.
    I love pink, unicorns, Pusheen, Hello Kitty, glitter, and sparkly things. I like high brow humor, board games, medical humor, medical prints, and neat or cool looking abstract pieces.

    I really don’t need things that are dust collectors, but if you find something awesome that you love I’ll take it.

    Hopefully all of this useless information about me it’s helpful. My husband is @Blackhawk1313 if you need help. And I’ve also linked my Amazon list and Elfster list for some ideas. Happy hunting….I mean gifting! And Hail Satan!

    Elfster- https://www.elfster.com/profile/3b1c45f5-cb1d-43ab-b20a-2b0a61e24a24/wish-lists/ce3a5b83-0c88-4ad1-bda6-0484e5c4ff38/

    Hello Satan,

    It's me, Oki.
    If you want an easy guide, my amazon wishlist is kept pretty updated in general, it also includes off amazon links to things I want/like.
    I also have an etsy list: https://www.etsy.com/people/OkiWolf/favorites?ref=hdr-fav

    Hobbies: singing, movies, cartoons, gardening, reading, music, baking/cooking, I'm also a mixed media artist kind of.
    I like musicals, dinosaurs, sushi, enamel pins, spooky shit, squishmallows, vinyl records, LOTR, Steven Universe, the She-Ra reboot, and Stranger Things.

    My video games tastes ranges around puzzles, platformers, rpgs, and adventures mostly. I like to character build, craft, and explore as well as the occasional beat-em-up.
    I love retro games, I mostly have retro Nintendo systems and a growing library of their games. My goal is to have a game library 12 year old me would be super jealous of.
    Specific titles/series I like are The Legend of Zelda series, the recent Tomb Raider trilogy, Red Dead Redemption, Mario games, Animal Crossing, Pokemon, Smash Bros, Secret of Evermore, Baldur's Gate, and Night in the Woods.
    Consoles I have are Switch, Xbone, 360, NES, SNES, N64, and a Wii (Gamecube compatible)
    I am not much of a table top player.

    My list has a few movies and shows which are good jumping off points, DVD or Blu-Ray is fine. I love a good schlocky B movie and good atmospheric horror so if you've got a favorite to share, please do.

    Clothes on my wishlist will always have a size in the notes if you're the type to buy people clothes. I like things that are soft and comfy. My style is a mix of queer, goth, and cottagecore.

    I work as a veterinary assistant so I love dumb vet jokes and I will almost never turn down something with a corgi on it.

    I have no known food allergies if you want to bake me things! I like dark chocolate and mint, but I'm not a big fan of toffee (I don't hate it, but I'm a picky baby about it). Sweet or savory is fair game! I also like coffee, teas without licorice, and good ciders and beers, particularly fruit beers, kolsch, stouts and porters (no IPAs/sours).

    Feel free to send me something personal or homemade if it suits you!

    I do regret to inform you all that my dog, Engel, will not be making an appearance in my gift photos this year. We lost him to lymphoma at the beginning of the year :(

    I missed last year and was very sad. I'll try to put in something this year

    Hi Satan,

    I have an amazon list with things on it, I'll throw it in my signature soon too. I wear small shirts, am male-presenting, and like reading! If you have a favourite book I'd love to read it! I am going to be moving in January, but I'm setting up mail forwarding for post office stuff. If you think you're gift may arrive in January or later, I can give a different address. I have a PS5 and a switch. My PC isn't great for gaming these days, though.

    Alright Satan I'm gonna level with you. This year has had some serious ups and downs for me, and fate has been a right proper bastard. It saw that the brewery should be successful, and win a bunch of medals this year for our beer; A+ stuff.

    But then it saw fit to take my beloved valkyrie from me and return her to Valhalla. She was only 33, and had so much more to her life.

    And so, Satan, there is only one thing I really want this year; Only one thing I really need...but I doubt even you, in all your infernal ways, can give it to me.

    Instead, I shall attempt to fill that void with material goods, and attempting to do good in her name.I am fond of:
    -Jazz, Heavy Metal, and Vinyl Records
    -Beer and Whisky
    -Home made baked goods
    -Leather Goods
    -Viking/Pagan Idolatry and Iconography
    -Books about interesting subjects/Anything I've heard about on NPR's Fresh Air

    Attached are some links and lists for you to browse through. And if you're feeling extra generous, you can make a donation to World Central Kitchen.

    Happy Sataning.

    For Satan's Eyes Only
    For your direct wishlist needs, I have a fairly well maintained list available on Gift Hero. It's like an Amazon wishlist but I don't have Amazon so it just bounces you around to assorted other places. Don't feel beholden to the specific stores I've linked there or anything like that - I have stuff like my local board game store listed more for mine own purposes than as part of a desire to only get things from there. It's mostly going to be books and board games and very expensive swords that I don't actually expect anyone to buy me, because those are the concrete things that I know I'm going to want.

    The thing is though, I'm also quite interested in the things that I don't know that I want. I love all sorts of oddities and weird shit and if you think that you want to send me any thing of that sort, I'll be elated. I've got shelves full of complicated wooden puzzles and antique veterinary needles and weird knives already, I'm sure I'll be able to find a place for whatever you want to send me. Also and especially art, if you make art (or crafts, I'm a big fan of crafts), send me art!

    I like both tabletop RPGs and board games quite a bit, and you'll find some of those represented on that wishlist from earlier. With RPGs, I tend to prefer small indie things, rather than the big names, as I end up reading more than actually playing these days. With board games, I'm fond of things that play well with two players but can accommodate more. If you want to know what sorts of things I already have, there's this sporadically updated list to cover board games, but I don't have anything of the sort set up for RPGs. If you want to know more, I can make a list for you, of course.

    I enjoy food and cooking, and would always appreciate some sort of local delicacy, if you have one. Ideally not seafood, as I won't eat it, but it will get eaten I'm sure. I drink coffee and tea and alcohol, and would enjoy any of those that you sent me as well.

    Hopefully that's enough information, but let me know if you need or want more. Mostly know that I'll be delighted by whatever you send me because if you've read this far, you officially count as a friend (I'm sorry), and I'm always delighted to get fun gifts from friends.

    Finally, just as a note for the anxious Satan, I might not post the very second I receive something - I tend to need eight to ten hours of time taking and editing pictures before I can post about my gifts. It's cool, don't worry about it.

    Here be my wishlist post, Satan.
    Dear Satan,

    I hope you had a lovely year! Mine was surprisingly eventful all things considered. I just started working a new job - and it's back in the accounting field! I'm really enjoying it, even though it means I'm back to living on my own, and (I hope!) I'll be moving provinces next year!

    Of course I've also been spending way too much time playing video games, you remember the PC we built - this year I upgraded my graphics card so I could keep up with modern games - even though I spend almost all my time replaying the Mass Effect games. I've also just loved Assassin's Creed Odyssey and Valhalla - Steam and the Ubisoft store say I have over a thousand hours in each of them! I loved the ancient Greece setting from Odyssey, it's beautiful and I like a game where I can just explore all over for dozens to over a hundred hours. I do also still have my Switch, but the only games I ever really played on there were Breath of the Wild, and Mario Kart. I'm kind of interested in Pokemon Violet as well, but I haven't kept up to date for any reviews.

    In the real world, my Lego collection is growing, though I'm not building new sets until I move, and I'm always looking for more board games to play with friends - my favourite times were with Dead of Winter, Pandemic, and Betrayal at House on the hill.

    My cat, Omen is still doing well, sometimes a little grumpy but who can blame her. She has managed to hit her 12th birthday, while I somehow hit 35 0.0 I'm fully feeling like a middle aged cat lady.

    If you are looking for gifts, I've accumulated a list of ideas here, though I'd also be very excited if there were something special local to you, or something completely separate as well :)

    Just a reminder though - I'm going to be away until the 29th of November, then I'll be gone again within 5 days of Christmas either way! (I will have someone checking in at the house every day to take care of Omen, who can bring in packages too :) )

    Hugs and kisses

    Hail, Satan

    This year sure has evaporated huh? I thought I was going to have to skip this year but I am at some point in the near future getting a sizable and unexpected recognition award from work so let's spread a little holiday cheer.
    So hey, I'm a big dumb white guy who likes giant robots, wrestling, anime, and general sci-fi and cyberpunk stuff. I've been getting a lot more into physical media and retro games this year, it's honestly starting to become a bit of a logistical problem. I play a lot of video games, currently have a Series X, Switch, PS4, a MiSTer, analogue pocket and other older consoles (no gamecube or wii currently, have a small want for a PS3 primarily for buying digital PS1 games). Speaking of, I picked up a Vita in 2022 for the first time because this is totally the prime of the system right? I've got a small handful of physical games and a 64GB memory stick. I'm not really into board games or TTRPG stuff.

    I (very slowly) build gundam model kits and have a bunch of kits and other tools and the like on my wishlist to help with that end. On a similar end I've gotten back into Transformers in a bigger way than I expected, currently trying to finish out the season 1 Beast Wars cast from the new releases.

    If I'm honest, work this year has been pretty brutal and I feel more like I've been collecting hobbies more than I have been enjoying them. It's hard to find the energy you know? I've been thinking of making the switch to some form of computer engineering, I have a growing hatred for the cloud and would much rather just work on hardware really. I bought a soldering iron earlier this year for a project involving a teensy board but never finished it because I need to convert a config from one codebase to another. I could use a better pair of helping hands, magnifying solution, and if I'm gonna do this in my apartment a good fume extractor.

    I'd love new music recommendations, I love stuff like, Daft Punk, Justice, Yoko Kanno, the Pillows, Yamaoka's Silent Hill soundtracks, The Protomen, recently got into Ado. I love a good bass line and a high tempo.
    If you want to make something or bake something I am down for both! I don't really have any food restrictions.

    I'm not really a sealed/graded dude but anything like CD/DVD era or DS stuff I would prefer to be complete if possible. Gameboy and SNES stuff I'm ok with loose.
    These games on the list I'm only looking for the manuals for:

    When you wish upon a post...
    I'll start out how I usually do: If you've got something neat in your city or your life, like a candy, or a food... or ANYTHING that represents YOU or WHERE YOU ARE FROM (like a book that was super important to you or a movie that you feel like everybody needs to own, or a decoration for a holiday that's important to you) that would be the most awesome. Secret Satans is a time when I love to get to know 2 other forumers; one on the giving end and one on the receiving end.

    In additon to the Amazon/Steam wishlists (which themselves are more of a "here's some ideas for stuff" and less a "get this exact thing"...)

    I wear a size XL T shirt from most brands. When it comes to pants, I'm too particular/weird size to even suggest you try (unless you're going for a pajama pant type thing that has a loose fit, in which case... maybe XL as well?)

    But really, if you're going for an item of clothing, I am a scarf man. Being in MN it gets cold a lot of the year, and when I go out I like to wear a scarf. That or sunglasses. I'd get a ton of use out of either of those. I don't wear baseball-hat style hats ever, but in the winter I do often wear beanie-style hats.

    Life-wise, I'm married and have 2 boys, aged 5 and 2. If you ended up sending something for the kids, that would be fine with me (kids are wearing shirt size 7 (kids S/M) for the older, 3T for the younger).

    For fun, I watch AEW and play games, when time allows. I've got XSX, PS5, Switch, and a gaming PC from a few years ago (the Xbox and PC get the most love, especially with Game Pass). The biggest challenge is just finding time to game. I enjoy board games, but I feel like I have even less time for those nowadays. When I do boardgame, it's usually just my wife and I. My board game collection is here, though.

    If you need more information... I guess get an imp to ask me something?

    Do you have a way to make me have better posture, or have a more organized desk/house/life? Those are things I could use.

    Yay and thanks!

    Looking forward to this again. Even though I will always feel like a lurker, this is the only community I keep up with nowadays. I appreciate y'all.
    Howdy Satan!
    A bit of basic info about me. I'm a guy, 39. I live in a smallish town in central Kansas. I live on my own with just my cat.

    I mainly play PC games, but I haven't had much time this year to try anything new. I have a PS4 that I haven't touched this year and I bought a Oculus Quest this year. I enjoy games, but really just don't get around to playing anything. I do love gaming merch though. Warcraft, Elder Scrolls, Fallout and whatnot.

    I like to tend to my garden and plants. Now that I have my own place I'm ramping up those efforts to improve my garden spaces and start plants inside and all that kinda jazz. I'm way too into peppers (grow like 30-40 different types of pepper plants each year). I also enjoy woodworking and other crafty type things. I have a nice little shop now that I hope to put to good use. I spend way too much time watching tv so I'm kind of boring.

    My next biggest interest is football. For the NFL I watch the Chiefs mainly. I'm more interested in college football though, and Kansas State University most of all. I will appreciate anything that is purple.

    Suggestions:
    I could always use more stuff to fill up the house and make it homier. Art, decorations, yard decorations, that kind of thing. I have a good assortment of tools, but am always looking for niche gadgets that I may only use a handful of times. I also cook for myself and am fairly handy in the kitchen. I like cookbooks and different seasonings and things. I have way too many, and yet still not enough types of hot sauce. I would honestly love to have a garden gnome.

    If you want to send a shirt I'm generally 2x, maybe 2XLT if its an option

    I've lived my whole life in Kansas, so I am always excited to get things from different regions and cultures.

    Again, purple.

    Hopefully that should be enough. Feel free to completely ignore everything I've said and take your own path.

    I saw this thread the day it went up, and set a personal goal of “I’m gonna write my post first, then send the email. I’m not gonna leave a placeholder post for 3-4 days like I usually do.”

    This new method saw me complete the process in 16 days instead of 4. 🤷‍♂️

    It is time! For me to nearly miss the deadline and post this too late. If I qualify it as a holiday tradition, am I in the clear?
    Most auspicious greetings to you, O Dark Benefactor! Thank you for your time and generosity, they are much appreciated!

    Please find below for your perusal two separate wish lists! I may poke at the Amazon one a bit more in the coming days, because Amazon is very big and I am terrible at picking things to put on that specific wish list. The Steam wish list will likely remain as it currently is.

    Amazon Wishlist!

    Steam Wishlist!

    In terms of other information that you may find useful: Most of my gaming library at this point exists on my PC, and I usually spend most of my play time on Destiny 2, but will migrate to other games when I have achieved Maximum Destiny.

    I also have a Switch, which has a much smaller library; I have Breath of the Wild, Smash Bros., the latest Pokemon Snap, Moonlighter, and Crypt of the Necrodancer.

    I'm not typically picky about games, so if there's anything you think is worth a look, feel free to send it my way!

    I am in a similar situation when it comes to books, in that I like books and will always read more of them, so if there are any titles you'd suggest for my inexcusably small library, feel free!

    I play in and run multiple games of D&D during the course of the week, so tabletop accessories such as dice, minis, and things to hold those accessories are useful.

    And I guess if you are of a mind to look into clothing: I am a large dude, and usually run into the XXL range for shirts and the like.

    I might make some edits to this post going forward, but hopefully this gives you a baseline to operate from! Obviously if you have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out via the means one would reach out through for this kind of thing.

    And seriously, thanks for participating this year. Looking forward to what you send my way. <3

    Shit shit. I need to make a post.
    Santa/satan! I don't really know what to say or ask, so brace yourself for rambly thoughts.
    I like MCU stuff, but we also are in a point in our lives where we're trying to downsize stuff.
    I like playing vidya games. We have a PS5 and a switch. I got pulled back into Destiny 2 which has been neat. I need to get off my butt and play Horizon Forbidden West, because I super loved HZD. Actually I have been eying the lego set for that.
    I haven't gotten the new God of War game yet. Thats on the eventual, to get list.
    I haven't gotten the new destiny expansion yet either.
    My daughter has taken my switch hostage with stardew valley. Kinda open to games there. We don't have much for it (I can try and get a list of the games we do have here soon).
    I'm into CNC stuff. Like quite a bit. Though I have all the robots I need (so far). I also have a lot of wood to get through. Not sure there's much I need there. If you could make me better at 3d modeling or graphic art stuff that'd be cool!
    We have two guinea pigs, and they are adorable and we spoil them a bit.
    My wife is gluten free, but all of us like rando snacks/foods/whatever.
    We do occasionally board game, but have more games than we have space for, so I'm probably going to downsize what we have eventually.
    OH! My wife super digs puzzles.

    Update (11/21)
    I got my daughter a guitar (and also me), so maybe some headphones or an fun pedal....oooh! I should maybe make one.
    Nintendo Switch games: Mario Kart 8, Untitled Goose Game, Hollow Knight, Stardew Valley, Mario and Rabbids, Lets Go Eevee, and maybe Pokemon Sword?
    PS5 games: God of War (not new one), Destiny 2, Spiderman (not Miles, though I want it), Horizon Zero Dawn and Forbidden West, and No Man's Sky.
    We like books. My wife works at a library, but its still fun to get books.

    I got all new boosters installed on my Impmobile.

    I call them "anxiety" and "insomnia".

    but it works out great for all of you as it's likely i won't be sleeping when you need Imping!

    Oh no!! Oh no oh no.

    I'm so sorry. My heart breaks for your loss. It's so hard.

    Thank y'all it's definitely been a pretty big reoccurring bummer not having him around. I'm hopeful I'll get another puppy in the next year so I'm sure NEXT satan's I'll be back to having a cute assistant to show off the gifts.

    Edited for 2023:

    This is kind of a cut and paste from last year's cause not a lot has changed, if I'm being honest.

    First up, thank you for being the best dark lord of the underworld that you can be. An even bigger thank you for agreeing to participate in this. Just know that anything that you deem me worthy to receive will be greatly appreciated. Though since we've been asked to provide some kind of post and list here you go -

    I'm currently in the middle stages of refitting and rehabbing a 38' sailboat that when done I'll be moving aboard and sailing off on. Her name is Respira. That said, a lot of things that you might see on my wishlist are probably related to this rather large project. Tools, things for making life living on a boat easier, etc. It's a small space so functionality of anything I bring on is key...but there is always room for fun stuff. Know any small board games that you'd recommend? Maybe a piece of hiking/camping/sailing gear that you've gone out into the world with and can't live without? Bring it on!

    When not working (in the video game industry...I have a gaming PC that I do most of my playing on), I REALLY like to cook and make cocktails. I'm pretty particular about the gear I use to do so, but could use a good instant read thermometer. I've been eyeballing the slotted spoon, wooden bowls, and scraper from Earlywood Designs for a bit now. That said - maybe there is a favorite recipe that you'd like to share? A spice or ingredient that is local to you? I will absolutely cook/use it and share the results!

    Lemmie hit you with some highlights:

    Do you cook or make art? Hell yes, that's awesome and I'd love that. Nothing with peanuts though, please. It won't kill me, but my tummy would get not at all comfortable.
    Is your area known for something and you want to share it and the story around it? I'm all for it.
    I travel to find good wine (red), whiskey, tequila, and mezcals. Anything to do with either of those is aces.
    LEGO is the shiiiiiiiiit. But I limit myself to only ships because otherwise things would get out of control.
    Tea rules, coffee drools.
    Hiking is aces and I try to go whenever I can.

    I'd also be perfectly thrilled if you just wanted to make a donation to an organization like the ACLU, Planned Parenthood, or King Street Cats in Alexandria, VA. It's where I got my two boys from 17+ years ago. They're awesome, orange, and if you gifted things to them and not me they'd love it and gloat appropriately.

    Oh...and just about everything on the amazon list can be gotten elsewhere, so do with that info what you will. I am in full throated support of shopping local and craft style places. I'll keep filling that bad boy out over the next couple of days.

    Anything else, just send an imp my way.

    Hugs and kisses, Satan. You're the best.

    Matches should start rolling out today!

    We tend to split up the list so you will be getting your PM from different people. Try to control the excitement!

    Happy Hunting!
