See that's not a dumb question, I believe you can use your forum name instead, but I believe using your real life name makes it easier for the package to reach you. The question was dumb and you should feel bad

My postal worker doesn't give a crap and delivers packages to the house no matter what name is on the package but your mileage may vary. For some reason we used to get a ton of magazines for a Bob Crotchitch. If you're paranoid use an initial for your first or last name. If you're afraid of being stalked by a goon, put your work address on there. santa please don't IRL stalk me

Potrzebie posted:Santa... I've been a good boy this year and made someone ditch her family name for mine, and give me half her stuff \o/ Dear Potrzebie's Santee, can confirm that he sends awesome stuff! Potrzebie! I got the package and sent you a PM! THANK YOU Dear Satin, I am a 29 year old lady goon who is almost done with grad school (studying genetics). I like science and roller derby. Lately, I've particularly been obsessed with space and cats although I do not have a kitty of my own....yet. I also like things that come from where you come from (local food, trinkets, a shirt from your local roller derby league [XL], whatever). I also like weird things and have a weird sense of humor (last year I made my Santee a Robert Downey Jr pinup calendar). I'm not allergic to anything fortunately. NWS is okay, just not on the outside because I'm having it sent to my parents' house. And if there are NWS presents, just give me a heads up since the past few years, I've opened up my SASS gift with my now 16 year old sister and will again this year...unless there's NWS poo poo. I am easy to please and will answer any questions you have!

Signed up for year 4! Dear Santa, I am a man staring down the onset of 40 with grit and determination. I like games, (board and video alike) food, booze and bees. Seriously, I like bee stuff. It started here with the "bees for Africa" thing years ago, but I love stupid stuffed bees and poo poo. I am a XXL fatbody with a family of people who "get" me, so anything NSFW is just fine. I'm cool with dildos and rubber vaginas and bees and Dreamcasts full of mealworms. If you have passive aggressive anger issues, I'm your man. Abuse me, Santa. Make me your bitch. Or send nice things, if that is more your style. Or just a card if it's a rough year. I won't judge. Love, brickswereshat

A couple of years ago on SASS I had to explain to the nice lady at the post office that, yes, I was mailing a box addressed to HOT BRITISH SEX. His housemate failed to answer the door to collect the package, leading to a note being left for Mr. HOT BRITISH SEX, and his subsequent visit to the post office where he was scornfully asked to identify himself. All part of the joy of the season.

Dear Santa, I don't have much advice to offer you. I participate again this year in the hopes of further confusing my wife with random packages from the internet. If you want to find something like old computer stuff or video games, awesome. If you want to find something strange and bizarre from Ray's Occult Books, or something more trendy from the Twin Pines/Lone Pine Mall, that's fine too. Just think of what was cool like 20 years ago, and it's probably a safe bet.

Dear Santa, I like betting on things, things that get me high, things to bug my cat with, delicious things, revolting but new things, non fiction reading things, music things, and things to hang on my wall. Bouncy balls and red bull always appreciated as well. But I will be happy with what ever mish mash of random junk I end up with.

Signed up! one of my favorite parts is the sarcastic signup website, so good job on that! Santa: I'm a nerd that works in IT. I like motorcycles, airplanes, tech stuff, gadgets, and etc. I'm an amateur mechanic/engineer. Food and snacks are always good too! I'm honestly not all that picky, it's the thrill of the unknown that gets me gleeful E: Here is a link to my Amazon wishlist. I don't necessarily expect anything from that, just hoping to give you an idea of what I like. CloFan fucked around with this message at 05:21 on Nov 30, 2014 |

This is my first year signing up for this and I'm super excited! I'm thrilled to send random poo poo to a completely random person and likewise receive. I like nerdy things, video games, snacking, things that get me intoxicated, science fiction, guitar playing stuff, homemade doodads. I am a man and wear a size L Santee can expect stuff along these lines and I love Christmas gifting.

I have braved the murky depths of nu-GBS to do SASS once more! It's been so many years since I did my first ever SASS and it'd be a shame to stop now. I'll copy + paste what I wrote in another goony secret santa I'm doing: I'm a dorky 28 year old goonette in the UK, and I spend a lot of my free time jamming on the guitar, watching goontube, and playing Final Fantasy games. I also organise a relatively popular social video games night in my home city! Likes: bees, doom metal, electric + bass guitar, harp, gothy stuff, skirts, trippy artwork, video games (but I have more digital games than I know what to do with), board/card/party games, tasty sugary things, cult movies & TV Dislikes: wasps Idioteque Dance fucked around with this message at 11:33 on Nov 17, 2014 |

Woo-hoo, all signed up! After seeing SASS come and go for the last few years, I finally got the motivation to participate in it for the first time. Super-excited! Dear Santa, I am a 26 year old ladygoon. I live with my husband and we are expecting our first child next May. I read more than I post here, so searching the forums may not give you too many clues. You can look, but I think I'll provide more potential gift ideas in this post than anywhere else on the forums. Given the fact that I am currently pregnant, please don't send any booze or smoked/precooked meats unless you want it to go directly to my husband, though I'm sure he wouldn't mind! Also, I'd rather not have to figure out what to do with anything dildo/goatse/bee-related besides throwing it away, so if you could avoid sending those kinds of things that would be great! Other than that, nothing is really off limits. My husband and I love playing and recording music together, so unique little instruments are always welcome and will probably end up in a song if they sound neat. We also love listening to good music, so any cool CDs or mixtapes would be bitchin'. We love to cook and eat, so if you have any local, unique, or interesting foodstuffs you would like to share, that would also be great. No known food allergies here! We love watching old TV series on DVD like Twin Peaks, Fawlty Towers, Bottom, Mighty Boosh, and Spaced. I think we collectively own more music books and bios than anyone else I know, on subjects ranging from local bands to the Manchester music scene to punk to jazz, but we're always happy to add to the collection. Any cool books, really! Dear Santee, I will do my best to research your interests, if you happen to express them on the forums, and gift accordingly. You may also receive some sort of food or candy. I knit, so I might knit you a scarf or something if your region gets cold. Or you may get something else that's homemade. EDIT: Just a heads up; if my Santa is feeling particularly stalk-y, I don't use this username for anything else. I googled it out of curiosity just to see what, if anything, might come up. The top hit is someone's youtube account with my same username, but it's not me, and it in no way reflects my interests (lots of rap and wrestling videos?) So, probably don't refer to that to find any gift ideas. eselbaum fucked around with this message at 17:54 on Nov 19, 2014 |

Yay! Year number 3! Dear Santa, Feel free to go crazy, but no cat vomit please! I'm 27, and married. My wife and I enjoy going to comic conventions. We're both Packers fans. We have 2 super spoiled cats. I enjoy photography, playing guitar, video games, going to concerts. Alcohol is cool and good, baked stuff is cool and good. Dear Santee, I'm currently unemployed, so you will probably get some homemade stuff. I will try to get creative!

SASSmas Commences. Dear Santa, I'm a 25-y.o. male person from Scotland. I enjoy things, especially video games, board games, card games, music (especially weird rock-fusion using traditional music stuff from wherever you're from. I've got Scottish, Irish, German and Mongolian flavours so far). I also collect masks from media (got a sweet Loki Mask in a previous SASSmas, which I made myself look like an idiot by not recognising). Also local candy and stuff. NSFW is fine if you insist, but please put some kind of warning on the box, since I am spending the holidays with family, some of whom may be young and/or impressionable. I'll answer any questions you have once the SASSmas Messaging Service goes live. Santee, You may receive some or all of the following: -Scottish touristy poo poo -Cake -Chocolate and related goods -Bees -A Hat -Irn Bru -Whisky -Nerd poo poo -Broken glass and a soggy cardboard box

YAY! SASSMAS! Here's a picture I made a little while ago that is fitting for the occasion: Dear Santa: First off, I have three children, ages 10, 5, and 6 months. Please nothing or . I have to put this warning up, because a few years ago through a different site's SS, I was sent a fleshlight. Not cool. I am a married 36 year old male from Michigan, US. I like Deadpool, Rick & Morty, Metalocalypse, board games (don't have many of my own, usually play somewhere else), Doctor Who, Castle (the Nathan Fillion show on ABC), Marvel Comics/TV shows/Movies, G1 Transformers, Nintendo stuff (we have a Wii U and a few 3DS systems), and I am a HUGE RiffTrax fan. If you send a shirt, 2XL is best. Santee, Bees. Maybe a shirt. You might even get a picture from my 5 year old daughter. Whatever it is, it will be cool.

Hello! I am neongrey, a 30-year-old ladygoon. I like fancy pens, inks, cats, video games (no electonic-only gifts please) (I do have a 3ds, ds, ps4, ps3, vita, and a passable gaming pc), yarn, t-shirts (either men's 2xl or xl; I don't like women's cuts), bizarre kitchen tools, Sailor Moon, cute things in general, and so on. My favourite animal is elephants. All sorts of arts and craftsy stuff is fun for me. I also like local stuff too. NWS a-okay. Santee: I'll probably e-stalk you a little, figure out something you will really like. I have had some great hits before!

Yay SASS! Santa, I'm a 24 year old goon girl who has terrible taste. Please send me goofy anime poo poo, sweets, homemade stuff, or stuff for my desk at work (I'm not huge on alcohol, but I'll drink it). If all of that sounds like too much effort to you, go to your local Half Price Books or whatever book/music resale shop you know of and get me a bunch of cheap fantasy romance novels and/or bargain bin classical music CDs. Nothing NWS/NMS please. Side note- I will be moving sometime during this winter, so things might get a little crazy. Let me know before you send anything. Santee, I will get you things. Lots of things. (The quality of said things may be dubious.)

Last year my package was addressed to 'Grover Haus' and my folks almost sent it back Return to Sender. I guess I should do my little spiel for Santa too. I'm a 38 year old dude with a lovely office job. I play tenor guitar, synth, and a bunch of oddball instruments in two bands. I do some music writing (concert reviews and band bios) for a local independent radio station and spend too much time watching poo poo on YouTube. I also have a ham radio license, although I haven't done much with it in a few years. I like post-apocalyptic and sci-fi stuff. I will be happy with anything you wish to send, but please avoid too much in the way of sweets. I am diabetic and would not like to lose a foot. I wear a 3X in t-shirts if you want to go that route. If you're into local music, a mix CD/flash drive of music/bands local to your area is always a good choice. I just signed up for Steam if you are the gaming type, my Steam ID is BigHustle007. When in doubt, bizarre is best. NWS/NMS is OK, but please keep it inside the packaging. Feel free to message me on the SASS site or have an elf contact me if you want to harass me about anything.

Dear Santa- I'm a 37 year old married ladyperson with a degree in photography who is slowly working on getting a useless fire arts degree as well. I own two cats. I like all sorts of geeky poo poo and I'm a huge PC and tabletop gamer. I do have an Amazon wishlist and a Steam account but I'd be more than happy with whatever cool stuff is local to your area or home made things. I like teas and coffees of all kinds but I'd prefer to stay away from candy or other sugary foods. I wear a size XL t-shirt. Feel free to message me on the secret Santa page if you need any more info. Please no NWS on the outside of the package, I don't want to deal with weird looks from the postal workers for the next few years. Dear Santee- Get ready for a boxful of cool poo poo from my home area and random stuff you like gleaned from my online stalking. There may or may not be bees.

Yay second SASSMASS!!! It's the best time giving and receiving gifts to internet strangers! Santa, I am sorry I am an idiot lurker. I am a goonette who is a teacher of the high school people. I collect rubber ducks, and love wind-up toys like robots. My husband and I play board-games like Munchkin, CAH, and Thunerstone. I wear an XL in women's and a L in generic male t-shirts. Handmade stuff is the best, and so is bees. Overall I just like getting stuff, even if it is something little like a pack of stickers. If you have any questions at all please feel free to use the sass-mailing system. I am usually pretty good about communication! Santee, Bee prepared. I have been buying/searching for little thing's all year. I also like to put an individualized handmade gift into it so hopefully you will like everything. Merry Sassmass everyone!!!
