If you want your Secret Santa to have a hint about what you would like, post it here.
I wanna pony and a horsie and a car and a special concert performed by Davie Jones.
and I wanna link to the guidelines in case i wanna play and don’t know how.
As long as it’s not fruitcake…
Well, ok, I guess fruitcake is ok, even though I hate it I spose I could give it away or something, or use it as a door stop or feed it to my bunnies or use it to hold the ribbon when I’m wrapping presents or maybe sell it on e-bay…
Yah, ok. No fruitcake, please.
Al.
My tastes are simple.
All my life, I has sought one object. One perfect expression of what life is all about. The one thing I want is…
A Deluxe Rubber Chicken
But I’ve been dropping hints for The Little Woman all year. This gift might be taken.
A dashboard Hula Girl would be boss too.
-Rue. (who likes fruitcake)
No fruitcake for me either. But something I could put in my cubicle at work would be neato-keen. Whatever - I’m easy to please. Just no fruitcake.
And I was kidding about shopping at the dollar store - really.
Actually, it doesn’t matter to me. The more bizarre, the better. And I have no problem with rating, either. It can be G-rated, or X-rated. I don’t care.
I’m easy (or so I’ve heard), but is my clandestine Claus can find any of the SpongeBob Squarepants toys that were given out by Burger King a few months back, well, let’s just say I’d be one mirthful mallard.
I’m going into another girlie-girl phase where I am into doing my nails. So nail polish would make me coo and giggle. I like frogs. I like page-a-day catalogs for some reason.
But hey, I like surprises, too. I’m not picky, just greedy. It’s all about getting a package.
Calendars, not catalogs. Sheesh.
I really like Kermit the Frog and bargain-bin computer adventure games. But I like getting presents so much that I’d be happy with pretty much anything.
If I’m chosen for your Secret Santa this is what I will ssend you. I have 5 SpongeBobs, 5 Patricks, and 5 Squidwerds… actually they’re my kid’s toys but they won’t miss one of each!
I want a G-rated gift as well and anything sent will be gladly accepted. Just for a couple of ideas: I really like scented candles and I’ve collected shot glasses and piggy banks since I was a kid.
I am very easily amused. A wall calendar for my office at work or trinkets for my desk would be nice. Or some water to go with my vodka would be nice, or jelly candies, I like jelly candies. It doesn’t matter what ya get me, I’ll enjoy it.
Anyone else notice that the woman is choking the chicken?
<ts erupts in gales of laughter…>
My tastes are simple: anything, anything at all. G-XXX rated (though if I have a Secret Santette, feel free to demonstrate anything past the “R” rating.)
I tend to prefer simple elegance. One of those sticky hands you can swat people with will do nicely.
I agree with Cranky, it’s totally about just getting the package. But if you’re shopping for me, you might want to consider the following:
I don’t seem to have a deck of cards anymore. I think I need that. Please don’t send food of any kind (I really don’t need it). A page-a-day calendar is always cool.
I like cooking, running, word games and reading. Make of that what you will.
How fun!
Hmmm. I can’t think of anything I’m particularly craving this year. But I’ll give you some guidelines…
Things That Terrify bobkitty
Frogs
Angels
Clowns
Please try to avoid these at all costs.
Things That Make bobkitty Happy
Dogs
Large cats (duh… bobkitties, but lynxes and snow leopards and cougars…)
Dragons
Books
I could use something to brighten up the office, but I’ll also leave the rating open to anything and just use my discretion as to what I can and cannot publically display.
-BK
Add my voice to the chorus of “It’s all about the package”.
Hints for my Secret Santa:
Cool beads - glass, porcelain, stone, no plastic please.
Tacky souvenir from wherever you live.
Grownup coloring books - not x-rated, but y’know, cool pictures. Dover Books has some good ones.
Geek stuff (monitor bobblies, Dust Puppy stickers, Star Wars figures…)
Or let your imagination run wild! However, please, no stuff that will inspire my husband to go on a road trip. He does tend toward the possessive…
I’m okay with any kind of gift, from G-X rated (though I need some warning if it’s in the R-X range, so I don’t open it in front of my kids!), but I do really dig local-type stuff. If wherever you are has some sort of speciality that they are famous for, something related to that would be cool.
Especially cool (though probably hard to get and/or expensive, so don’t worry about it if it is either of those things) would be a pen-and-ink drawing or small watercolor of some kind of local scene from where ever you are. I collect those from all over, and I would squeal with glee if I had another one to add to my collection.
With being a car owner again, I always like to get car accessories. I still need an atlas…some leather cleaning stuff…maybe some fuzzy dice. Can you get a AAA membership for $10?
I need a new book of logic puzzles, I’ve almost finished my current one. I like the ones that have the graphs printed for me because I’m damn lazy. Logical, but lazy.
No food for me, either. I’m trying to quit smoking AGAIN, and that means trying to eat more healthly as well. I’m going to live forever if it KILLS me!
I always mean to buy a desk calendar, but never do. I like architecture ones or word-of-the-day or Far Side or…um…stuff like that. Just a plain ol’ calendar would work as well.
