Xmas Lists

[thecreeper]

what are you asking for?

at the top of my list is some basic stuff, like an oil change that i cannot afford and a couple shirts and jeans of my choosing.

otherwise...
tales of symphonia for gamecube
silent hill 3 & 4
Jump Drive
a bigger SD Card
America the Book
Clerks X DVD
Black Sabbath 70-78 Box Set

I don't expect to get all of that, but usually my parents start bugging me for a christmas list around late October so I give them the biggest list i can think of. this years list was 2.5 pages in Word. I usually get like 1-2 items from said list. heh.

Not really asking for much this year. A new computer case, and maybe a couple computer parts for video editing. Can't really ask for much since my parents are paying for my college.

Socks and underwear are a given.

so far, i've asked for some clothes (hooded sweaters for wintertime ), and a douglas coupland book, or two, that i don't already have.

earlier today, since he's in town, my dad was asking me what i wanted, and i couldn't really think of much.. i told him i could use a new pedal or two for my guitar, but i'd have to pick them out and get them while he's here tomorrow, and that kind of sucks the fun out of christmas and christmas morning. but i do need at least a decent overdrive pedal..


also, i think i've been hinting at a couple beatles albums. i had a bunch of them many years ago, and i don't really know what happened to them, so i'm finally getting around to buying them back. i've really been wanting to listen to "help" and "revolver" lately.



but, really, i just want to have some holidays, look in my stocking and open a present or two on christmas morning, and just enjoy the free time with the family and friends.

there's so much shit i want (videogames and music mostly), so i'm just going to give my parents a big list and let them get as much or as little as they want. i don't have the time for a lotof videogames, so if i only got 2 i would be happy. plus half the shit i really want requires online purchases/searching to find it online.

games:
Tales of Symphonia
Metroid Prime 2
Half Life 2
Mario and Luigi Superstar Saga
Mario vs. Donkey Kong
FFI&II

CDs:
too many to list

Other:
a CD rack
hair ties



Stuff i'd love to include, but it would make it a pain for mom and pop:
Panzer Dragoon Saga
Radient Silvergun
Guardian Heroes
Don Cabellero - all their albums
Bozart - Steel Bridge
Brian Davis - Cheat codes

fine assface, I'll be serious about this all important topic of what I want for a holiday whose religion I dont believe in, and neither do many of you, and the holiday itself is based on an economic phenomena I dont particularly agree with, and also I've done my best to come up with content and such for the site, even offered to completely do it on my own (back when I had time.) but no one would give the thought the time of day (and then you complain about why there is no site, you lazy excuse for a human being) , but sure, I'll accept responsibility for the downfall of a forum that was failing before I got here...

I want:

The Art of Deception - Kevin D. Mitnick
A few hoodies and pairs of pants
cash


and crack, stupid-head

you could have saved a lot of time there. and assuming i don't do anything when i run a weekly fucking website, 2 band sites, and contribute to several others is really fucking ignorant(not to mention i have offered to do this site too). and you will have to excuse me, but when i and others make simple posts meant to get people to post here and at least try to maintain a sense of community, a one word, unfunny, stupid response is not a way to encourage others. if you have such a big fucking problem with xmas and thanksgiving and so many others things, dont post in those threads, or just don't post here in general. i dont care, i'm just sick of this "woe is me" bullshit all the time.

i really dont think you were, but if you want to play off what i said as a joke, by all means, feel free to do so.

[Jesse]

I can't think of anything to reply with. I've written about 5 different replies, then erased them.

Sorry fellas.

ahh, why do you have to be so ghey! Lemmie get this straight, I post something mildly sort of "chuckle worthy" funny, and you get mad cuz I'm not being serious, then I post something serious, and you get mad cuz now I'm too serious, then I just try to shrug it off hoping you'd get the hint and drop it cuz to be honest we're both being doushe (sp?) bags, but you feel so superior that you feel the need to extend our litt'ole foray into the art of debate, much to the chagrin of everyone here. Drop it or dont, argue or dont, joke or dont, regardless of what you choose, you are still being a douche bag, and more of a douche bag than I am, I might add.

like Jesse said at the mention of this post, quote:
"How DO you spell douchebag?"

the problem, jep, is that you have no normality in your posts. take this thread for example. your first post is one word and only semi-funny. while i can ignore it, it is worthless. then your next post is so over the top.

all you fucking have to do in a topic about xmas lists is either a) post your xmas list, or b) don't.

point taken, but I think creepah could have put it in such terms without all the character bashing

AND LO' I DEPART, FOR GAWD HATH SAID, "DEPART FROM YE CURSED TOPICS, FOR THEY ARE OF THE DEVIL, AND GHEY!"

like God said at the mention of this topic, quote:
"I did say that, didnt I..."

[thecreeper]

i wasn't attacking your character. i was making fun of you with the whole suck thing, it wasn't a personal attack. but then you flipped out and told me how worthless i was at this 'failing' forum and how you do so much and you are different because you hate xmas and thanksgiving. my questions is....was it needed?

raub nailed my point exactly. you are all over the place. i obviously bothered you, and when i responded to you (albeit a bit angrily, though i think i have a point), you were just like "oh well no biggie!" it is a big deal. how you appear and how you come across is a contributing factor to whether people choose to post here or not. and honestly, i think you act really immature on a lot of subjects. on the other hand, you can be very mature in your postings, as seen in the election thread. i just want you to contribute a better you to this site, not the undesirable parts i mentioned. since we don't have a lot of people right now, we have to rely on who is here. so we need everyone to put a little more effort into making this a welcoming community than we would at say TTT circa 3 years ago.

that being said, i also want a pony.

what's so fucking great about being normal?

nothing, but being a consistent person is great.

nice to see you around btw.

[Mr Biglesworth]

consistency is boring
thetesttube is boring
you're boring

credit to jep for being a character and caring about his opinions.

C'mon, remember when we were the PSX Freaks? We were Freaks! And proud of it! Now we have an actual freak and nobody likes him. What a bunch of hyopcrites!

I'm sorry, I don't mean this as a personal attack on you or the testtube, it just pains me to see such a diverse and interesting variety of people, who I'm SURE lead diverse and interesting lives, have stimulating thoughts, know stimulating people and have had fascinating experiences, could share life, light, love, and wisdom with all their friends they've known for... 6 YEARS (upwards to, for some)... slip into drudgery and conventionality. I know you. I know everybody here. You're amazing, full of life, light, love, and wisdom. Don't settle for being less.

And thanks... it's nice to be here to say something. How are you doing, buddy?

why do you require people to be boring?

[raublekick]

you don't have to make a decent post and be boring. example of a decent, yet humorous xmas list (for jep):


Gay porn subsrcriptions
Dildos
New Bras (b cup please)
...
...
...

would you rather come here and see a topic like this that offers very little insight, thought, and coversation:

Post 1: What do you want for christmas?
Post 2: Crack
Post 2: Pussy
Post 3: (some decent list)
Post 4: Hookers

or would you rather have a reason to stick on the boards for more than 5 minutes at a time.

to me personally this forum doesn't mean a damned thing, i got here after this community was established. but you guys are always trying to make it come back and you always fall in the same traps. you alienate any new person that comes around (hey i almost gave up here because 90% of the posts were inside jokes from past incarnations of TTT). you make either shitty posts that aren't worth reading, or you make long boring posts that either no one wants to read or no one takes the time to respond to.

take it from an outsider, you guys for the most part have no consistency with posts. it's either bitching about posting too much worthless stuff, bitching about too much heavy conversations, or actually posting either of those cases. there is no middle ground here half the time, and that's why it doesn't work. want it to work? start giving a shit about posts.

merry christmas, i hope things get fixed up soon because you're all nice people.
