i'll have to check my mailbox for other things but i literally just got home and i am tired and i would like to sleep
thank you duckfarts!!!!

so i was lazy and the initial box of dumb useless crap i wanted to prepare is still at home and may eventually get to you someday

so re: your gifts:
  • :siren:The Summoning is one of the best loving games ever made:siren: and is filled with cool puzzles, warp stones that can potentially gently caress you over if you're not careful, a neat magic system, a conversation system with keywords, kickin rad music, inventory juggling/hoarding, meaty combat including running away like a bitch at times to throw rocks and anything in your inventory at the enemy, and a potentially bugged final gate though you can get to the ending another way anyway. :hellyeah:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozRcWp2GYB8 :rip: SSI

    if you don't want to deal with floppies, it's considered abandonware so you can just google "the summoning game" and there's a few places that have it, and some that will let you play it online in a browser, though i don't know how you'd manage your saves then

  • my brother works at Tiltfactor, and they worked on Monarch, and i'm told it's reasonably okay

  • you should have already received a giftcard in the mail to Purringtons, a cat cafe that seems cool but has the bullshit (yet frustratingly understandable) rule that you can't pick up the cats. if you havent' received it, i hope nobody's stealing your mail, and i hope it got there despite you giving me the wrong zip code :argh:

  • last, i wanted to get a dvd of this cool documentary i saw about taiwanese pro wrestlers and their lives that was made/directed by this guy i met while accompanying some friends going around on some weird local temple pilgrimage tour that ended in basically a basketball court's worth of closely arranged mortar fireworks all hastily lit with hand torches, but i couldn't find the dvd but it turns out that the director put it up on youtube anyway so here it is for everybody to enjoy

I suspected you were my santa!

Gift pics:



Upon opening the box my kitchen was filled with an overwhelming aroma of bananas. I'm amazed this thing got through US customs but not really because I doubt they care :shrug:


:drat:

Illegal candy is da best candy


I smelled this, but it surprisingly wasn't the source of the banana odor. Now I can take calls at my desk like somebody with a real job.


Another phone! This one looks like the Nokia I had a year ago.


Surprisingly, this wasn't the source of the banana smell


But they're delicious, it's similar to fruit-leather in taste and texture


The rest of the haul contained some sweet modern architecture / Symbolic Butt's city themed chocolate bars


And what I think is "Merry Christmas" in Portuguese on another chocolate bar


Some peanut-brittle-like candy. It's excellent!


A shirt from Curitiba, Brazil


And a very tiny pocket magnetic calendar for a tiny fridge


SKELETONS!




Finally, the source of the banana smell:


;)


The chocolate ones have a hollow shell of hard sugar inside that contains liquor! The other two are yogurt covered, I think one is banana flavored with raisins inside and the other is ??? flavored with what I think is passionfruit inside! They're delicious and I'm definitely not sharing these.

Thanks for being an excellent Santa, Symbolic Butt

hello, major appologies to my santa vodkat

ive been pretty sick lately and in and out of hospital and didnt get a chacne to do this post properly, and didnt want to half rear end it

so without further delay...



I received this unexpecantly when I was waiting for some other deliveries, wait until you see the lovely handwriting



Three lovely and very neatly wrapped gifts



It really is nice handwriting

First up on the block is the little thin one, let's see....





Oh, it's the worlds BEST OPERATING SYSTEM (JUST RELEASED)

But just loving LOL at having a laptop with a disc drive, who do you think I am? I'll just need to frame it

Next up is the slightly bigger gift, feels like a hardback...



Hmmm



Ahhhhhhh

Here are some choice excerpts





These postcards are so boring that it sent me to hospital, its kind of making me glad I didnt need to live throgh 1960s America. Its not boring more so than just actually depressing :cry:

This will make an interesting coffee table addition

I can't believe it doesn't have one single page Seattle, the only place in the USA I've been

Right, the last one is a bit hefty



Hmmm



Ooooooh, that a very nice cover, I haven't heard of this before



This looks great, I managed to read a little bit of it so far but will be able to get into it properly now that I'm back home. It's certainly different to anything else I've ever read

Oh yeah also there was something inside...



:3:

Let's not forget the lovely card





Sorry vodkat, I don't think there is any saving my posting. It's among the worse posting of the year, but thankfully the year is almost over :grin:

You mentioned a certain something else that would be arriving separately...well it actually arrived much quicker than expected!





Here we go...



:swoon: :eyepop: :swoon:

This really is lovely



I tried to take a shot of the description at the bottom that names everyone (although I would be surprised if this thread couldnt name them all) but it didn't really work very well



For now this will remain tubed up but like you mentioned in the card it will end up framed and hung up in my new flat...whenever that actually happens, hopefully soon

Thanks very much for everything vodkat and sorry again for the delay!
