What did ya get for christmas?

[Arm0r]

 

My mother in law gave me 12 6 packs of Christmas Ale.  Not just any Christmas Ale, but our home brewed classic around these parts!

They cost 11.99 per 6 pack, well worth it imo.   

Also ended up getting 50 bucks in Chipotle gift cards, 20 in Panera and a wopping 150 dollar gas card from my boss!   There are things that just warm my heart around this time of year, 150 dollars in free gas is one of em.

Ohhh and my wife gave me a 100 dollars worth of PSN cards.  Time to get some games!

PS3 3DTV 24"
Cuisinart 6 quart Slo-Cooker (MF'n Chili FTW!!)
SteelSeries 7H-USB gaming headphones with adjustable boom mic. (Turns out it was an open box return that wasn't labelled as such and there's a few parts missing. Will have to bring it in to have it swapped for a complete one.)
A great Roots Jacket from work.
A series of small cash gifts from my stoner friends to go towards buying a Volcano Vape.

And $150 in grocery GCs.


*edit MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

[20:54:13] <@quadz> heheh, liz pulled some stealthy premeditated subterfuge on xmas presents this morning... she had some elaborately boxed gift for me, the card said "HO HO HOAGIE" and contained a subway sandwich gift card, and inside the box (in a box) itself were a couple 12-packs of coke-zero ... so i'm sort of quizzically saying thanks (and she says, "it goes with the sandwich!")
[20:54:27] <@quadz> ..but there's another card in the box that tells me to look in the other room
[20:54:42] <@quadz> she got me one of these:

Annotation on the video says "Now currently giving fingerdrumming lessons..." HAHAHA! I dunno why, that just seems like the pinnacle of idiocy to me. Cool fuckin' toy though. I'm jealous!

Most importantly, from my beautiful fiance, I got a $500 Harley Davidson gift card which I plan on using towards some winter weather riding clothes, probably some battery powered heated gauntlet gloves and heated jacket insert I've had my eye on but couldn't bring myself to rationalize buying.

From my sister and brother-in-law, I got a really nice Keurig single cup coffee maker along with a carousel K-cup holder thingy to pretentiously display my coffee selection, lol. It's nice, but probably the old lady will get way more use out of it than I will. I rarely drink coffee anymore unless I happen to have bought a pack of cigarettes lately. Coffee without a cigarette just ain't the same. And since the only time I smoke anymore is on the rare occasion when I get some cigarette coupons in the mail to justify buying a pack, then I just don't find myself drinking coffee that much anymore.

From my folks, I got a bunch of clothes. Some Georgia Bulldogs T-shirts , some sleeper pants that I always wear around the house. Also got a pack of some really nice Rage titanum 2-blade broadheads for bowhunting. These babies spread to a 2inch cutting diameter on impact. Gonna drop some deer dead on the spot with these little nasty bastards.

From my roommate, I got my own Nintendo Wii system along with copy of Madden 13. His words were something to the effect of, "Now you can stop stealing my shit while I'm at work."

I also got a single-cup coffee maker, from my sister-in-law.
My wife got me a 3TB Seagate external HD and I got books from my mother. (Most of the rest of it was clothes, but nice warm ones!)

Also there was a lot of food.

Also there was a lot of food.

Oh hell yes. I ate till I was fucking miserable yesterday. Got up and made bacon, eggs, and toast for breakfast, which was a mistake. Because a few hours later, we turned around and had sandwiches, baked beans, potato salad, cream cheese salsa tortilla rollups, chips and dips, and probably a few other dishes I forgot. Then when I was about to fucking explode, we broke out... the deserts. We had some kinda Italian creme cake, red velvet cake, 2 or 3 different kinds of gourmet cookies, regular cheesecake, and some kinda Hershey's triple chocolate cheesecake. I only had one piece of the triple chocolate cheesecake, and half way through it I was on the verge of puking from overeating, but I forced the rest of it down my throat because it was just too damned good to throw it away.

A great trick my dad gave me years ago was to make xmas eve's meals just as large for yourself that by the time the big dinner looms it's head you'll be ready to conquer it.

Got a new MP3 player that I bought with the 170$ my family gave me. (Sometimes they're a little too generous with money. )
New headphones
A bunch of new clothes

No idea. Normally I could find out easily, but Google search by image doesn't seem to working for me at the moment. :<

Tineye brought up a few results. Clicked most but found no reference to an original. Harumph!
