Previous threadThis thread is for discussing all things Christmas, how your holidays are going, family issues, general griping, and posting your amazon wishlist or buying for others.
>How does the amazon part work? People will post their Amazon wishlist link according to the instructions in the next post down, thanks to you all. People who enter the thread may post their liist at will, and it is your decision to gift who you want. ----------------------------- FAQ: >Does my address get shown? Your city and state, and shipping name. Refer to the instruction image below. Shipping name can be anything you want. >How will I know if something has been bought for me then? Items disappear off your list after being purchased. You can also go to your list, press Filter and Sort, then select Purchased. >Will the information of the gifter be shown to the recipient? No, all of your information will be protected. The recipient will not see any info. >How can I post my Wishlist without being blocked by the filter then? Press the Share Envelope and copy the permalink. If that doesn't work, remove the dot from your link. >Why should I gift something? I'm not gonna get anything in return! This is a different take on a Secret Santa, where anyone can gift or get from anyone. If you're feeling generous, please do consider giving back to others. >Last year people bought stuff for others and then cancelled them to epic fucking troll us! And they did that the previous year, and the year before that too. It happens when you have Amazon wishlists, it's disappointing to lose out on a gift, but the item will just go back on your list like they never screwed with you at all. Remember to have a good time, a lot of us don't have much else going for us in the year, so this event can be fun if you follow the guidelines. Remember to post images of whatever you get so we can make new comps.
Current number of gifts delivered: 134 >IMGUR of gifts delivered this year: yTqhTUl

>Don't reply to bait in general thank you everyone
Thanks, guys, have a very good christmas everybody here.
I have a lot of time on my hands. So i might as well spend it creating things, not super bad at art either, here's something i did when i was like 15, so i should be able to put it to good use a.co/fX4UyZk
>want to participate but don't see how to do the third-party thing because the "edit this list" option isn't there
John Rivera
In the German Amazon, it's located at the top right next to show lists an send list to others. Maybe you're not logged in? Godspeed, user
Xavier Miller
I dont really get it. Is there like a price limit? If i put up a switch would someone actually get it? I got smash but no way to play it
Lincoln Cox
you wont get a switch. the most expensive gift ive seen this year and last year didnt go past 50 usd. this thread is for people wanting toys and books
Zachary Scott
There's no limit but in all honesty, I wouldn't be so greedy. I put some relatively cheap comics (comics on German amazon are unfortunately more expensive than in the US) in my list which I would love to read and which some generous user might find affordable. I think an actual console would be kinda pushing it. I suppose you wouldn't gift others such an expensive item either, right? also, by putting in cheaper items, others might be able to spread more cheers by gifting more anons but that's just my two cents
Ryan Cruz
a.co/56ZmoW7 I just want a beanie and gloves but don't actually buy it because you'll be suffer from the shipping fee itself
Jason Smith
Technically, you can put whatever. Realistically, no one's going to gift you if it goes past a certain point. $5-15 is the 'sweet spot'.
Colton Reed
I know a lot of robots are probably not doing so good this time of year. Lonliness is a horrible thing to suffer from, and I'm sorry things aren't going better for you. I hope we can all find happiness some day.
There's no snow, I'm working double shifts cause holidays, and my family is too split up and distracted. r9k actually feels like my haven for Christmas spirit this year. Love you guys a.co/ip5Nk2v
I want to know how Amazon does it's pricing. One day a book is 10 quid and the next it's 5 quid. Did paper and ink rapidly change value while I was asleep?
Merry Christmas every one. Hows your morning been? I spent it introducing my nephew to old Nintendo handhelds. Gameboy colour, GBA and then DS and 3DS. Started him on Fire Red and he picked Squirtle. As a life long Charmander fan I'm putting him up for adoption.
sweet trips. 4 days to go, y'all excited? Posting some of the stuff i copped for family. This is what I got for my grandma. Some estee lauder stuff (blew about 120 there so i could get a bonus - 20% off and 5 free mini gifts, which should be here tomorrow) and i had to hit up ebay for the big bottle. It's been discontinued for a few years but my grandpa had always been able to find one for her and i paid a bit too much for it - but totally worth it.
Do people really buy people clothes here? Only things I saw gifted in the few threads i looked at were books and weebshit.
Good afternoon folks, hope you're all hanging in there. amzn.eu/hAZAmeH High amount of respect for you lads who are working through Christmas. Keep your head up.
i'm excited to watch my usual movies of the year, and I'm still waiting on a few things I got myself from amazon
Ethan Clark
If it's a third party seller then their product probably sold out and you're just seeing the next cheapest one.
Leo Wood
Would it be too much to ask for a copy of overwatch while its on sale now? im still too poor to afford it in spite of that. Feelsbadman
Carson Gonzalez
I can't believe there's only 4 days until Christmas 2019. I feel like we're in a fucking time lapse, I can't associate my younger life with my current life. It feels like all the scenes I can remember of being a kid or teenager were things I saw in a movie, and didn't actually happen to me. Family members I saw regularly are dead now, friends I hung out with every day are never to be heard from again, don't even know where they are. Life is spooky as shit, bros.
is overwatch still getting decent numbers of players?
Zachary Hughes
Just spent the last of my money on my family, secret Santa coworker, and gifting comics on /co/, I got 4 dollars left till next Friday. Merry Christmas Jow Forums
despite wearing thick sweaters and having the heat up I still feel ice cold shivers down my spine. 4 days til xmas, huh. I simultaneously love and despise the thanksgiving to christmas/holiday season. I don't like it that much because getting together with my family can be a fucking nightmare, but it's not all that bad. Whenever I meet with them at thanksgiving or christmas dinner or whatever it's always someone poking fun at someone and it ends up as a shitstorm frequently. and I can't help but just lock myself in the bathroom. I mean it calms down eventually when we're all done eating and we're handing each other gifts but still. I really don't want to drag myself to my mother's house but I don't want to be alone on xmas eve.
this fuckin sucks
James Reed
i couldnt say for sure, ive never played but i watch a lot of it on twitch
Hey guys, I hope you get something by this holiday... I don't know if I should share this... Two days ago I could stop being a virgin with 4/10 girl... the summary is that, we get drunk in her house but nothing happened, I didn't try to push her because I though that could be somekind legal issues with the rape paranoia, and there was a moment in the night that she said needs to go to work, something like de 23:30h and return to 06:00. This was a dissapoint because she forced me to laid in her bed a while she started smoking pot.
the other thing was she is a bit hippie and roastie even she is a MD.
also in my mind there was other girl who left my life ten years ago. I still thinking in her, even she forgot me, perhaps is dead or married a chad...
Hello anons, I would be very happy to receive some comic book from my list, however, it would be great if you recommend me some manga or book based on my taste.
I have a bad memory. How am I supposed to remember? I got a book, a cup and I think that's it but I would feel an ass if I told someone I forgot their gift.
Easton Harris
oh shit, yea I feel you there man. I have a bad memory myself
Joseph Moore
no images yet since nothings arrived, got a phone case from texan user and a book from someone else. i think the book was supposed to arrive either yesterday or today so mightve been grinched. hopefully not.
Carson Morris
i mean ive been keeping up everyday and ive been using the things i got but its understandable
Sebastian Rodriguez
honestly that grinch shit really killed these threads. glad to see some robots still getting comfy.
Noah Nguyen
I don't have anything with a camera, so I can;t post a picture. But thanks so much to the user who sent me the founding brothers book!
Justin Russell
Yeah, was supposed to be here today at the latest so I'm not sure what to think at this point. Got the guy the Trainspotting book as a thanks as well so I'm beat. Been TRYING to get comfy but getting older is a bastard isn't it
Cameron White
I think richfag was annoying as hell, it may have not just been him, but it was like there was someone just waiting for me to post a fixed list so they could fuck it up again
David Wilson
Someone grinched me two items on my list (respirator filters and thermals) but I did get a few thins and made sure to gift more than I got.
Juan Perez
Everything was fairly chill in these threads until yesterday when I had my whole list fucked 8 times. But its a new day, hopefully things remain chill
Easton Jones
Yeah I saw you, I felt bad lol. I had been grinched a hand full of times but you were posting a new link like every 20 minutes because of it.
Jayden Jackson
Thank you so much user they smell amazing and don't worry my house is still fine
Thanks again, friend. Unfortunately it basically still wants me to pay $30 and I thought it was a real gift card. Pretty misleading on their part. Sent you an email to explain, but yeah. Can't pay it because I'm a poorfag.
Happy holidays, anons. There's a big fat black cat outside my window. I'd be happy to do some requests today - I have an appointment in an hour or so but I'm free before and after to do any art if any user wants it. a.co/gWIHiy3 At some point I'm going to have to actually use money to buy the Harry Potter series, I had a wake up call when I realized the local library stocks them in the children's section. Highly recommend them, some people prefer the movies but I feel like the movies had a lot of potential that was wasted. Anyway - what are you anons reading this holiday season?
Was too small, so I just made this instead. Pretty sure they've all been delivered, and I've just been lurking in the threads since my debit card was frozen AGAIN this year.
>old You will also be old one day user. Life is pointless if you don't enjoy what you want to enjoy. There is no point in being an insecure moron who lives by what others (society) tell him/her to do without having an actual real thought of your own.
Caleb Nguyen
Yea mmmaaan. Fuck society mmmaaannn. I'm going to read children's books until I die mmmaaannn. You can be old but you will never be an adult. They're not the same things. Only a pleasure seeking manchild would say something this immature.
Jeremiah Morales
being an adult is literally doing whatever the fuck you want in your free time and telling others to fuck off. only teenagers and women shame others for what they enjoy.
Brody Rogers
Said the child who doesn't understand what adulthood is. Adulthood is where you leave behind childish things and start taking responsibility for yourself and those around you. A fire fighter is an adult, a NEET is not.
Kevin Collins
so a firefighter can't enjoy cartoons? who is in charge of deciding what is and isn't childish? why are those people the ones that decide?
Luke Jenkins
At least you don't have to go to a family dinner and pretend everything is ok for hours to then come home and hear the young and normal people celebrating in the streets.
Bentley Reyes
When you grow up you will understand no one is in charge, everyone is in charge and you know who is a child and who isn't.
Children watch cartoons. They're not for adults because adults have better things to do than watching things aimed at children
Andrew Morales
so you're saying that there are zero "adults" that watch cartoons in the entire world? no firefighters enjoy comics or cartoons in the entire world? would love to see you back that up with actual evidence.
>nobody is in charge, everyone is in charge that's called anarchy you dumbass. literally making shit up and pulling it out of your ass on the spot.
Brandon Price
>Only a pleasure seeking manchild would say something this immature. Nah, just someone who isn't insecure like yourself.
>start taking responsibility for yourself Already did that and I still do what I want in my free time whether it is read comics, etc.
Josiah Allen
my family is too poor to have a proper dinner. I eat the same 4 things every day for probably the past 6-10 months.
Justin Diaz
Where were you when the call the that saved Europe was made? a.co/88WOxuh
Where are you from? Venezuela? What do you eat? Rice?
Eli Morgan
US. I basically live on bread, peanut butter, tuna, and hotdogs.
Landon Cook
I'm giving away a five dollar Amazon gift card. If you would like a chance to receive it, tell me what you would do in the following hypothetical situation. I'll select the answer I like best in roughly one hour.
You managed to procure an item that is able to grant any desire. Countless people have sacrificed their lives in an attempt to acquire it. What do you wish for?
Make sure to include an E-Mail address in your post so that I can send you the GC code in the situation that you win.
