Surprise me-really. I’m open to anything, but I love fuzzy stuff. Feather boas, old timey feather fans, mardi gra beads, anything random. I also collect windchimes, and pez dispensers, and Got Milk? ads. But I just love getting mail, so you could send me a blank envelope and I’d be happy…
Dear Secret Santa
I’ve been a good girl all year (okay, some of the time. All right, occasionally), and I just love getting surprise packages. If there’s anything inside the package, that’s a bonus.
Thank you, and please pat the reindeer for me (they work hard, don’t they?)

Nothing X-Rated, please…Mr Wick wouldn’t find it amusing.
Anything else is fine. 
I like silly things, and little stuff to play with at work. Play-Doh would be cool…or a slinky…something like that. I work on the phone, so I like to keep my hands busy when I talk. (No, it’s not a phone sex place ;))
I hope the person I got posts to this thread soon!

Toys!!! Toys!!! little goofy toys for my desk at work
Something to annoy my housemate & coworkers with…The louder the better.
I need pick-me-up thingies right now:
Toe-socks [knee-high, funky colored preferably]
Chocolate [Godiva or Gheradelli :)]
Of course, humor and shock value are always good.
[sub]NOTE: I will not be opening mine in front of family.[/sub]
A little bump…
I really want the person I have to post to this thread.
Dear Mrs. Claus,
I have been a bad, bad boy. I hear the old man will be out of town later this month, wanna see HOW bad I can be?
Yours Truly,
UncleBill
(P.S. Please do not leave this letter sitting around, feed it to Donner or something.)
Mine can be as naughty as you want it to be. But you knew that.
I like all kinds of random stuff. Especially cartoon stuff (Looney Tunes, Hanna Barbera, Cartoon Network). I could also use an oversized tea mug (caffeine is a good friend of mine).
Nothing higher than PG rated, though. Up to there I can fast-talk it past the kids. The missus is a smart one, though.
Shot glasses are also good. Or anything I can put on my computer desk at home.
Ho-ho-ho, and all that rot.
Where’s my Secret Santa gift receiver?
I’m fond of gifts that reflect some characteristic or taste of the giver. Gift-giving involves two parties, and an ideal gift bridges the gap that separates individuals sparking briefly a unity whose keepsake is the gift. The giver–the gift–the givee…there is a bond created here that for a fleeting moment makes a connection in our all-to-unconnected and cold world.
Barring that, I like chocolate and am still looking for pre-1956 copies of Dixon’s The Mystery of the Flying Express or The Clue in the Embers, the only two (pre-rewrite) Hardy Boys book missing from my collection.
CD’s are pretty safe–anything by Pink Floyd, Sting, the Bobs or the Saint Agnes Schola Cantorum would be fine; if it’s been released in the past couple years, I don’t have it.
Or a neat mousepad.
Please not that my above requests are merely suggestions. I really like getting anything from anyone. Pretty zany is good.
Naughty is perfectly fine, if you are so inclined. I have a weird affection for kitsch, also–plastic flamingos, stuff like that. Rocks and rock-related artifacts are, of course, always welcome. Or you could just surprise me.
Surprise me. I dare ya.
No, seriously, unless you can get a Acura 3.2 TL S or a Volvo S80 T6 for ten bucks, I’m pretty well open to anything that’s no raunchier than say, extra-large Japanese condoms. As you can see from my choice in cars I appreciate value and functionality over flash, although I can always use a good belly laugh.
I already have enough cologne for the next ten years.
Like Pammipoo I like getting stuff in the mail. Send it, hurry!
Ok, lets see, I want some Anthrax, no not that kind silly. Some used CD would be cool by me, something like Armed and DAngerous, or Fist Full of Metal. It would have to be something from the 80s since I have all of the 90s stuff. And no a white powerdery substance would not be funny right now.
Or something from Dexter’s Labratory, I have nothing by them, or some Simpsons toy, like say Homer, or Moe. Actually you can skip the Anthrax. Or if you really want I don’t mind the naughty stuff, like the 500,000 different possitions book.
Hmm, I was looking to see if my Secret Sant-ee had posted, but he or she (note how I keep the mystery alive!) has not. As of when I hit “post reply,” anyway. But since I’m here!
Dearest Secret Santa of Mine,
I hope you are well. Would you like a backrub? I have tried very hard to be a good girl this year. Honest. And how about that backrub? I’m ok with any rating gift-wise, though if’n you’re looking for suggestions, I really like candles, fairies, assorted Witchy things and under-10-dollar silver jewelry, which I often collect at street fairs, craft shows and the like.
But overall, I just like presents, so also feel free to surprise me!
Yours very truly,
Rosebud
Dear Santa,
I like kitsch and retro things, and books about kitsch and retro things; I like CDs of retro music (Rosemary Clooney, Tennessee Ernie Ford, Nat King Cole, Ella Fitzgerald, The Ventures); candy is always appreciated.
Because I make reproduction antique porcelain dolls, I’m always looking for scraps of old cloth and old lace, the tinier-patterned the better; scraps of thin leather or old kid gloves for shoes; old handkerchiefs with lace edges and old baby dresses, even with stains or holes; and tiny things that dolls could hold in a display.
I also like cartoon-related items, especially Pepe Le Pew, and cat-related items.
Thank you, Santa.
Love, Pencepon
I like stuff. I like good wishes. I like being employed.
I’m a hetero girl, so I think run-of-the mill porn vids are out. Anything else goes. Surprise me.
(oh and I don’t like clowns much but I do like frogs and spiders and snakes and other creepy crawly things and I maybe would like something that is well-known for whatever area you happen to live in, santy. )
love and hugs,
mle
ps. I hope the person for whom I’m seecret santy posts here soon, or else I shall have to go a’hunting for his/her other posts and make some kind of deductions. That is all. Thank yew veddymuch.
Dear Secret Santa:
I like weird stuff. PG-13ish rated weird stuff, that is, since I may open the box in front of my grandmother.
Some suggestions
Books. Poetry is always good; I like modern stuff. I’ve been in a wacky-fiction mood lately. Something bizarre and mildly disturbing would be good. (Books can be up to xxx rated, as long as the cover art is PG-13ish.)
Music. I like most anything except country-western. Artsy REM-esque rock bands are best. Send me a CD from your favorite Promising Local Band[sup]TM[/sup].
T-shirts. Oh, I love t-shirts. Ladies size M, fitted tee if possible, any color but white. With something strange or kitchy or ornate pritned on the front. I prefer graphics to text.
Food. I’m vegetarian and don’t drink alcohol, but any other food product is welcome in my belly.
Toys. Little things to perch around my moniter that I can play with while waiting for SDMB pages to load.
Random bizarre things.
List of NOs:
No girly stuff (bubble bath, nail polish, etc.)
No knick-knacks
No calenders, keychains, candles, or other usual Gift Items[sup]TM[/sup]
No normal-person stuff.
Generally, if you’re in a store & you see something and wonder “Who would want something like that?!” the answer is me. That’s exactly what I want. Misfit objects that no one else wants, stuff that makes the normals wince. Please help me have a freaky little christmas.
Merry ho-ho-ho and whatnot,
Lunatic13
WAIT!!
Dear Secret Santa,
If it’s not too late I know now what I really want:
Stroganoff Rice-A-Roni!
This will only work if you live in the Western U.S., but on the slim chance that you do…
It must be Stroganoff flavor. This variety is not available anywhere on the East Coast. Years ago I lived in Boulder Colorado and it was so plentiful. But now–NONE anywhere.
So if by some chance you live in the western U.S. and have access to this product, I’ll love you forever! Thanks!
Note to all Westerers: If you are fortunate enough to have access to Stroganoff Rice-A-Roni, you have the perfect gift for friends/family/Secret Santas in the Eastern USA. End your holiday worries now. I can’t imagine anyone in the East not being super-excited come Christmas morn when they rip open the paper and find those special brown boxes. Remember though, only Stroganoff Rice-A-Roni–don’t be fooled by the promising colorful “Herb and Butter” or “Chicken” flavor boxes. Not only are those kinds available anywhere in the US, the taste is vastly inferior!
