    stand by me chips got me thinking only one thing:

    "you guys wanna eat a dead body??"

    I also thought "A complete, and total, barf-o-rama."

    After you finish the Stand By Me chips, you find a dead body and have a great life changing moment with your friends.

    I tested the binos out this morning (when I opened things yesterday it was already night). They are very crisp. I live on top of a hill now so we have some pretty long views. With these I can spy on people all the way over in the next village.

    They also don't have the faint purple outlining my old binos had (I think that's called chromatic aberration?) which I was so used to it didn't really register it any more, but it's very noticeable to not have it any more.

    I'm not dead! (but this work week sure did make me feel like it)

    To make up for my lateness, I submit this picture of one of my patients from yesterday who was a literal pocket puppy named Franklin <3

    I received GIFTS from the dark lord this week which were definitely welcome rays of sunshine. My assistant helped me open them below!

    and out comes... Secret of Nimh and a coffin shaped butter dish to add to my spooky decor! (because in this house, Halloween is everyday)

    I'm super excited to start using that butter dish in my new apartment once my husband and I move out in a couple of months (our roommate is kind of klutzy so I'm gonna wait to put it out)

    The notes are signed LWT who I think is @lwt1973 from G&T? Thank you so much!!



    I do have sad news about the last gift though. As much as we've complained and left notices, the USPS in our neighborhood seems to think it's totally okay to keep leaving packages unsecured around our mailbox instead of leaving us a slip and taking it to the post office. There's a coded gate, but the gate is constantly left open and apparently also really easy to bypass so we have houseless folk rummaging in our recycling frequently. Some opportunist likely saw the package laying on the ground and took it before I could get to it :(

    @Handkor, as imp for your fiendish patron, they seek knowledge.

    Have additional delights reached you this morning?

    If not, as the sun sets, a few more treasures may materialize.

    Wow, I am blown away. I've been gone from PA for a couple years, and from gaming in general, and this is what happens when I come back? Satan is too generous:
    I should have known something was up when my cat came running to smell the package.
    tMfc0al.jpg

    And when the others wanted to join in.
    vFxo0xl.jpg

    The note inside explained why. This box contains treats! For humans, but my cats still wanted in on the action before I could get to the rest.
    IelxBSC.jpg

    The rest was lovingly gift wrapped, but in my excitement (and so I could hide the treats before my cats ate them) I ripped off the wrapping before taking a picture.
    qdPeoWP.jpg

    So that's Ghost of Tsushima (I've heard so much high praise), The Last of Us Part II (the first was so good, can't wait to see this one), Sekiro (I'm working through Demon's Soul's on PS5 so this is perfect to follow it with), and Man Eater (which looks equal parts awesome and hilarious.)

    Truly, @Kadith, what an awesome set. You knew I'd totally missed out on the PS4 era, and from what I've heard this is exactly the group of games that will catch me up on all the good stuff I've missed. The only problem is, where do I even start?

    Also, it's just between lunch and dinner, and even though my partner just finished baking a pie, I definitely ate one of your family recipe cookies. That. Was. Delicious!! I'm probably going to eat the rest before dinner if I don't get to playing these games. Thank you Kadith!

    Just wow.

    Hi Cristoval
    With news of your second package being on its way, but possibly taking anywhere from 1-3 weeks, i thought i'd give you this in the mean time. Get yourself something nice from the eshop.
    I'd highly recommend Part-time ufo if you want a fun laid-pack physics puzzle game to play with a partner. But of course the choice is entirely up to you! I don't know what you're in to!

    CODE REDACTED

    I do enjoy both physics and puzzles, but I'm actually going to use this to finally get on that HADES train!

    Thanks again, I'll think of you--whoever you are--while I'm doing whatever it is you do in HADES!

    Oh dang, I got gifted again! Crosspost from the G&T thread:
    ovr1hlkzij2i.gif

    I've been struck with another gift by @Cameron_Talley ! I was totally not expecting anything else, but I checked my front porch as one does and I found another mysterious Amazon package! Holy cow!

    A message about a buggy game. I have a feeling I know where this is going :D
    1RDj4CS.png

    Indeed I was correct! It's a Cyberpunk 2077 art book and lore guide :D This is super cool! The art direction in Cyberpunk is definitely its best feature and I can't wait to dig down into the lore and history of the setting!
    xTbrf1w.png

    It also came with some temporary tattoos, some postcards with some cool vehicle art on them, and a big ol' Johnny Silverhand poster! Those are some nifty extras :3
    NjIFRUf.png

    And there it is! My Akira bike that I've spent like 90% of the game using to get around! Best bike in the game, it looks cool, and is just useful as hell for getting around in a jiffy.
    8HDI5IN.png?1

    Anyway, thanks for this amazing gift! I'll probably spend an afternoon during the holidays just browsing this and the D&D recipe book and reading all those cool lore and tidbits and admiring the art :D

    Thanks again! <3<3

    UPDATE

    Stand by Me chips taste like fish. Not good fish.

    Fish puffs taste like cheddar corn puffs?

    Pudding jellies taste delicious and have something creamy inside.

    Edit: Turtle puffs smell like death, but taste kinda like pork rinds?

    BREAKING NEWS!!!

    The package I thought had been stolen ended up actually being mis-delivered to a neighbor who gave it to me just now!! I was too excited to do any fancy set up for it but here's Engel being extremely excited for the treats I'm holding off camera while he poses with the raddest Switch bag I could ask for!

    Good evening, Noggin! Your Santa has completed the stalking, and the shopping, and the stuffing, and the sending, and now a merry box of presents is wending its way towards you and yours!

    This UPS tracking number will not go live until Monday, 21 December, but the package should arrive by Wednesday, 23 December, with a few days to spare before The Big Day! Your tracking number is:
    420NAUGHTYOR69NICE

    I hope the last bit of time before Christmas is great for you and your family!
    Signed, Your Secret Santa

    Noice, right as my break starts. Wait, just how much stalking did you do!?

    Thank you, Secret Santa, and to you and yours as well!

    Big ol' Gift Get(?) in here!
    A sizable box arrived. It made an odd sound when moved, and looked like it had been... chewed.

    Little did I know the box had not been punctured from the outside... it was something inside trying to get out.
    4F1UG9kl.jpg

    From beneath a mound of packing material arose a face...
    Kzr8yuil.jpg

    An orb! of metal! It appears to be a ceremonial candle holder, whence the lights can come out of the openings!
    CG1mCWul.jpg

    But that wasn't all... oh no...

    Beneath even more packing material was another face!
    x5ObeEvl.jpg

    A ferocious beast of orange and black, welded together by it's own ferocity!
    7OmWcWjl.jpg

    An absolutely magnificent specimen to behold!
    SDVcHN6l.jpg

    They're great, and they have already been placed in prominence where they can watch me work and protect me!
    lFnJJk2l.jpg?1

    There didn't seem to be a note in the box to say who it was from, but I didn't order them myself... so unless I hear otherwise I'm gonna thank one of you!

    I will very cryptically refer you to my earlier post on this page, and also warn that there is 1 more thing coming from BBY (probably on Xmas eve).

    I regretted not getting you anything purple despite living in MN where we've got Vikings and Prince and stuff (and the pandemic meant no window shopping/browsing for ideas and I had to limit my shopping to "stuff I can order, or stuff that is at a store I'm already at") so I got you something that can be purple :P

    The unicorn is supposed to be a tree ornament, but it's probably a bit too weighty for that, in all honesty. You can do whatever the flip you want with it, though!

    I mean, uh, purportedly. Not that I would know anything about The Dark Lord.

    Oh man, I'm glad you got it! I didn't realize you'd tag me in that way.

    There's... at least one more thing to come, but unfortunately that's currently scheduled for arrival in... early to mid January? I may send more too, depending on how my finances are.

    I’ll give it a shot, though if I try to use the candle function with my current tree I think the whole thing will go up.

    With such exotic names I can’t wait to try them, I can’t say I have had anything like these before, and I adore chocolate so this is truly going to be a decadent sinful treat worthy of the name Secret Satans.

    Haha, I saw you posting the other day about karaoke, so I checked online for how much a decent set would cost. Rather than use Amazon, or pay through the nose for shipping, I thought I’d leave it in your capable hands!

    Buy whatever is going to help you through this hell year, but please post pics of whatever you buy!

    There is something a bit more personal I’m putting together that I will ship from NZ. I should be on holidays from Wednesday, so that will give me some time to get things together.
