If you have ANY questions, concerns or anything you need at all. Please PM or email me! Donations of scotch for dealing with all this are welcome!

Definitely up for another AISS. Basically the same preferences as last year, stickers and/or garage art is always a hit. I ride bikes (bicycles, not motorbikes) way more than I drive at this point so something cycling related would be great too. Electronics and electronic music are of interest as well. Preferably no food due to dietary restrictions and customs issues.

I'm in as always, details later. Details: I've been wearing the same "uniform" for over a decade, so clothes are out. Don't drink, don't do drugs. Local food is good, nothing with fish in it. Except Swedish Fish, those are great. Barely turn a wrench anymore, mostly work on underwater equipment/robots. Own an '07 Fit, '15 GMC 2500HD, and a '98 Jetta TDI. Old VW poo poo is awesome. I'm into all sorts of electronics. I SCUBA dive. Art is cool, dicks are not. Stickers are good. Jesus, I'm boring, sorry. sharkytm fucked around with this message at 03:15 on Nov 8, 2019 |

Hopefully this year I don't forget to include a card. Edit: I'm cool with pretty much anything. I've got a 1 year old I love spending time with so if it's something we can both appreciate, then even better. I like beer. I'm really into DJing vinyl and playing with synths lately. I'm a size medium shirt, but xxl cup  GnarlyCharlie4u fucked around with this message at 21:43 on Nov 15, 2019 |

I'm in for the first time! I live alone, go nuts on box art  I don't drink, so alcoholic beverages would be wasted on me. Local flavor type stuff is always fun, I'm an L or XL shirt, don't really have any requests though, I'm easy to please.

I知 in. I have a car-crazy preschooler and will likely be sharing whatever I get with him, so young-kid-friendly stuff is great. Neither of us drink, so no booze, please. Shirt size would be 4T, and anything car-related would be cool, though he already has half a dozen Lightning McQueen shirts, so maybe not that. Dick drawings will need to wait till he痴 at least 5 or 6. Edit: current cars are an F30 328i and an NB Miata. Steely Dad fucked around with this message at 06:23 on Nov 23, 2019 |

I'm in. T shirt size large if it matters. Prefer beer if you're sending booze. I like pales. I have a 65 C10, a Matrix XRS, a GMC 3500 and a CR-V. Previously I owned an E30, a 128i, a couple Volvo 850 wagons, and an MJ. Wall art for the shop is great. The bigger, the better.

I'm in. I may have participated years ago, I don't remember. Prefer something cheap/free, preferably lying around the house/shed/garage, that is specific to you, and/or your country/region. I'm no critique of box art. No one will be offended; rather, titillated. I will do my best to do the same for my lucky, ah, receipient. May the Lord have mercy on your soul.

Im in, done it 3 times but missed out last year. Box art is fine, please no clothes. Stickers and tools are awesome. I Drive a shitbox 93 Toyota Levin and we have a 09 Mazda 6/Atenza. Baby Jerk will no doubt get himself involved so a Hot Wheels or something would keep him happy if you feel so inclined. Nothing illegal please.

Absolutely in. Thanks, Slothrop! These days I'm an elevator guy, so the cars I deal with on the daily go up and down instead of down the road. That said, I still love my little Mazda 2, my Yamaha biek, and my Radwood Certified El Camino. Totally in to things for that. I also love booze. Tshirt size is large. I lust for the day we can buy French cars in America again. If you find a Yugo to send I'll pay for shipping.

I'm in. I'm not feeling very festive this year so I apologize if my gift kinda sucks. I have a whole bunch of lovely cars and a thread somewhere that I haven't updated in a long time. Weird tools are good, shirts are good (I wear a large), books are good.

I've never done it before, but I'm giving it a go. If you're gonna draw a penis on it, it had better make me laugh. I wear a men's medium, but I'm open to anything really (books, food, tools, et cetera). I'm a Honda guy for what it's worth. nitsuga fucked around with this message at 02:49 on Nov 17, 2019 |

I'm in again, I've got some amazing pieces of crap that will wow and amaze my santee already set aside. Drawings everywhere, or not, I don't care, my next-door neighbour is in her late 80s and might see so keep that in mind. I've got a lot of shirts, but 2XL if you are going that route. I like old Toyotas of the pickup-truck persuasion, own a 2019 Forte. I also like tools, candy, the blood of the innocent, and chocolate milk.

In again! Nothing will phase anyone in the house. Do your worst/best  No specific requests other than no t-shirts. I have enough of those. Any other clothing is more than appreciated however. Garage is somewhat eclectic. Lowered F-150, RX-8 and a Martini livery Macan. I have been collecting auto manufacturer promo merch all year for this. My Santee is in for a swag bomb.

Once again, some poor sap will get me as their santa. No sweets, no shirts, otherwise go hog wild. I like my engines flat and ze german automobiles from stuttgart. I dabble in taking pictures with Canon gear, travel a lot so handy knick knacks are cool, and always appreciate tools and tech junk. Just started doing some motorsports so if you have the secret to going fast...

 Registration Closes in 12 hours (10pm Australian Eastern Daylight Time) We also have a small situation to address. sharkytm has contacted me as the current holder of the "King Dick" wrench. I think it goes without saying that this item has some baggage attached to it now. I've been thinking for a couple of days about the best way to handle this. I don't think it's my place to decide it's fate, so for better or worse I'm bringing it to the thread. My first instinct, despite the thread title, is to say "throw that poo poo in the trash" The wrench itself of course isn't evil, it just has some baggage attached to it due to the association with the former owner. We could always find someone to donate it to if it's percieved as a useful item. sharkytm has offered the following sharkytm posted:I can probably melt it with oxy/acetylene, or definitely throw it ceremonially into the sea. Bring it up in the thread, see what the wisdom of the masses says, I'll do whatever the people want. We are of course open to other options. Have a think, keep it civil, let me know what your preference is.

I dunno what the item is exactly as I haven't participated in SS for a few years, but if it's a useful tool it should be put to use. Donate to someone and no need to make a big show about it.

Donate to someone and no need to make a big show about it. On that note, just throw it away. It wasn't anything particularly special that I recall, and no need to drag anyone through any more drama related to him/it. Edit: It's probably not particularly valuable either/anyway - here's a retailer selling King Dick tools : https://www.abbotstools.co.uk/Wrenches/Wrenches-Combination-Wrenches Even at 1.29*, they're priced at approximately "gently caress all".
