It will be fine as long as they aren't venomous, poisonous is ok though

Just to update here (and in case people haven't seen my posts in other threads that would give this away), I have received my gift, and it is AWESOME.

I am sending mine out Monday. It will be sweet.

Papersatan · « **Reply #102 on:** 02 Dec 2010, 11:08 »

We were a little nervous it would't make it through customs. So glad it did!

blanktom · « **Reply #103 on:** 02 Dec 2010, 11:17 »

Honestly,

Yeah. It came.

That was pretty friggin amazing.

calenlass · « **Reply #105 on:** 02 Dec 2010, 11:40 »

Wait, how does this Secret Santa thing work? We tell people who we got? We're supposed to sign the cards? What?

blanktom · « **Reply #106 on:** 02 Dec 2010, 11:51 »

I may have ruined it all.

Either/or, it worked for me.

There's another entirely embarassring Youtibe video coming up.

EDIT OH GOD AN EDIT

Dawg, I thought you were saving the lemonade flavour.

My gift probably won't be going out for a little while. So. Much. Schoolwork.

Sorry, person!

Undead_Graduate · « **Reply #110 on:** 06 Dec 2010, 21:10 »

Can we still sign up for Secret Santa? I mean it's only the 7th. I would really like to do this. You said something earlier about a website? but when I clicked on it it said it didn't exist?

Lines · « **Reply #111 on:** 07 Dec 2010, 09:23 »

I think everyone's already been assigned someone. You'll have to PM Jace to ask him.

My gift-to-be-sent arrived today! So I just gotta put some festive edibles and whatnot in the box and then I'll be able to ship it!

Blue Kitty · « **Reply #112 on:** 07 Dec 2010, 10:23 »

My gift should be sent out some time after Friday. Not sure if I want to send it via UPS or plain old USPS

valley_parade · « **Reply #113 on:** 07 Dec 2010, 11:09 »

The way things are looking, my gift will be shipped out on Monday.

Unless I blow my money on Red Sox tickets this weekend. Then it will be shipped next Friday.

Barmymoo · « **Reply #114 on:** 07 Dec 2010, 15:12 »

My gift will be sent out as soon as it darned well actually arrives here... Grrr! It could have WALKED here more quickly.

valley_parade · « **Reply #115 on:** 07 Dec 2010, 15:15 »

May did you get someone a puppy?

Barmymoo · « **Reply #116 on:** 07 Dec 2010, 15:16 »

Note: My present is NOT the kitten that I posted photos of in the pet thread. Get your own dang kittens!

Package sent

Edith · « **Reply #120 on:** 08 Dec 2010, 13:02 »

I bought part of my gift the other day. I kind of wish I knew more about the person I'm sending to.

To that end, I'll tell you a little about me.

I have been taking classical guitar lessons for a year, I knit a lot and buy yarn even more than I knit, and I'm in the S.C.A.

I like chocolate and curry, but not together.

My favorite fruit is grapefruit.

I like bourbon and beer, but not together.

Lines · « **Reply #121 on:** 08 Dec 2010, 13:08 »

Edith, you should come for a visit. Yes yes.

Edith · « **Reply #122 on:** 08 Dec 2010, 13:12 »

Hmm...what are you doing on christmas day? Lisa and I could drive over...

Lines · « **Reply #123 on:** 08 Dec 2010, 13:18 »

Going home, haha. I'll be housesitting for my cousin from Dec 16 - Jan 1, so you're more than welcome to come down on any other time. And then after that I'll be back at my apt and weekends are free game.

Edith · « **Reply #124 on:** 08 Dec 2010, 13:23 »

I work a lot, but we should figure something out.

...but probably not on here. SECRET SANTA!

Everybody tell us what you like! Because I don't know what my person wants, so they might not get much.

ZJGent · « **Reply #125 on:** 08 Dec 2010, 13:46 »

My secret santa gift is not going to arrive til after christmas boooo. (But it will be special and sealed with love-sellotape)

allison · « **Reply #126 on:** 08 Dec 2010, 14:56 »

I like books, beer, baking and moustaches.

bainidhe_dub · « **Reply #127 on:** 08 Dec 2010, 15:05 »

Allison, if you were my person I would totally get you a moustache. So you could always be ready for a moustachioed occasion.

SirJuggles · « **Reply #128 on:** 08 Dec 2010, 15:16 »

My gift... is not very well customized to the person I am sending it too. It's just stuff that I saw and thought was nifty, and really hope they appreciate it.

calenlass · « **Reply #129 on:** 08 Dec 2010, 15:29 »

My gift has not even started to be assembled yet, on account of I just took my last final exam and my mate just wound up in hospital, so. It will probably arrive after Christmas. Whatever.

Suck it up, person!

Lines · « **Reply #130 on:** 08 Dec 2010, 15:32 »

I don't know my person very well either, so I got them something winter themed they might have fun with.

My interests (if this helps) are cute things, reading, generally nerdiness, and candy.

vegkitkat · « **Reply #131 on:** 08 Dec 2010, 16:34 »

My interests are the same as Linds'.

On my end, though, presents have been purchased. It will be sent out when exams/living in the lab are done.

calenlass · « **Reply #132 on:** 08 Dec 2010, 16:36 »

I like sex, drugs, and rock & roll.

Except less drugs, only certain kinds of rock, and I am not allowed to have sex with anyone except my boyfriend. So.

tania · « **Reply #133 on:** 08 Dec 2010, 18:24 »

Punk rawk and PBR and stuff. Triangely shaped guitar picks. Random-ass 7" records.

Well then you ought to be posting your head size or foot size or whatever size, shouldn't you?

sean · « **Reply #138 on:** 09 Dec 2010, 09:59 »

tania if i get that do i have to be naked too?

(size 11 feet and i have kind of a big head)

SirJuggles · « **Reply #139 on:** 09 Dec 2010, 15:37 »

Well apparently my person already had some trouble finding stuff for me, and I'm really hoping my response helped. If not...

I like candy/sweet things. I like food, but that's not usually easy to send through the mail. I like clothes and music and reading and nifty stuff to play with and fun things to look at. Umm... let's be honest, I just like the thought of getting stuff from cool people.

Also, I have all my items together, but the post office sold me a flattened box and I HAVE NO TAPE.

Steal some from your place of work/study. If you don't have either, then a GET A JOB you goddamn hippie!

SirJuggles · « **Reply #141 on:** 09 Dec 2010, 16:50 »

...I am stealing one of the the terrifying tape guns we have at work and blaming it on the internet if I get caught.

It's ok, presents are important. Also, the internet is the best scapegoat.

Papersatan · « **Reply #143 on:** 10 Dec 2010, 07:56 »

The internet may not be the best excuse when crossing an international border. Border guards don't understand internet friendships. :/

Lines · « **Reply #144 on:** 10 Dec 2010, 08:00 »

Yeah, no, that is a bad idea.

Edith · « **Reply #145 on:** 10 Dec 2010, 08:00 »

Really? I always found the border guards fairly sympathetic when I said I was heading to Toronto to hang out with people I met on the internet...But, then, I guess I look pretty harmless.

What I'm saying is Pink Hair Is Terrifying! (oh noes)

Lines · « **Reply #146 on:** 10 Dec 2010, 08:03 »

You told us not to say that. Especially after Katie and Mai's car got searched for saying that. We were meeting "friends". We just didn't say where those friends were from.

The American border guard really liked you, though.

Papersatan · « **Reply #147 on:** 10 Dec 2010, 08:04 »

"Where do you know these people from?"
"The internet."
"Where on the internet?"
"Um, a site called Questionable Content..."
"You're not here for G20 are you?"
"No."
"Hmmm...." [Selects car for extra searching with reason selected as "G20?"]

Edith · « **Reply #148 on:** 10 Dec 2010, 08:18 »

I have a patheti-sad story about my most recent border crossing.

Mike and I had just broken up, and I was kind of a mess about it. I went up to visit Tania and to get the rest of my crap that I'd left at his house, which I got at the end of the weekend and then had to hit the road and get back in time for work on Monday. I think I left TO around 4pm, which was going to put me home at 1 if I didn't stop at all, but I was already emotionally drained and I knew it was not going to be good.

I came back through Windsor/Detroit and the border guard was a grandfatherly type with a huge mustache. He asked the purpose of my visit and I burst into tears. Trying to talk over huge snotty sobs, I managed to choke out, "I had to go get my stuff back from my ex-boyfriend." He talked to me for a couple minutes, trying to calm me down, and then when it looked like I was safe to drive again, he let me go through. I only clearly remember one thing he said, which was "You know there are thousands of single guys that live a lot closer to you than Toronto."

Metope · « **Reply #149 on:** 10 Dec 2010, 09:55 »

Supplies for present bought today! I'll make it tomorrow and send it off on Monday. Person, it might be a little late, but it will hopefully be worth it!
