Thanks for my first ever goon card, Tremors!! I love the dino stickers. Also, congratulations Thermophonic Joy on your weight loss!!! I've started that journey too, down almost 40lbs myself.

Cone of Tragedy posted:Panorama_Change, I got the package you sent me and it is awesome!! Thank you!!! I tore it open and immediately read the comics right there where I sat, such a fun selection of issues! The card was both amusing and suitably creepy, the cat sticker actually happens to look exactly like one our house used to own, adding to the eerie stalker sentiment. You made my day, I was so excited when I got it. Thank you again! You're very welcome, Happy Holidays!

Found a big handful of awesome 1970's (not necessarily holiday) cards, will be putting those together this week and hopefully getting them in the mail by friday. This thread and subsequent cards and gifts of stickers and pure joy has made this one of my best holiday seasons. Thanks Goons!!!

Got this thing of beauty from Kafka's Goldfish yesterday. Will be sending out a shipment of cards tomorrow. This is truly been one of my favorite holiday seasons. e:  helps to actually post the pic...I recognize Lakitu, but the other is escaping me, both very awesome and very loved. Also, if anyone is inclined my birthday is January 5th. I would whole heartedly appreciate some birthday cheer. panorama_change fucked around with this message at 14:11 on Dec 14, 2012 |

If it comes back to me I'll send it back out with some extra goodies.

I just want to say thanks to everyone on this thread. This has been a really lovely holiday season for me. (Job woes, e/n bullshit, etc) The cards I've received have truly brought loads of joy in to my life. I can't thank everyone enough. Thanks holiday card goons for being everything that you are and giving me some beacons of glee.

MustardMaster posted:Anybody up for some pen-palling? I made a thread about it just before Christmas but it was an idea basically born dead. However, a couple of people weren't too negative about it. Any of you guys lurking here? I would like to participate in some penpal fun. I need an excuse to write more often even if it is ranting in a letter to a goon. Plus everyone loves to have a reason to purchase stationary. Sign me up!

JimmydaFish posted:Hey everyone, I have a favor to ask. My mom has been quite sick lately (part of the reason I am behind on posting thanks for xmas cards) and she needs some cheering up. Would you kindly goons send her some fun/cute/cheerful cards to help her feel better? Better keep it clean since it is my mom. I would really appreciate it. I just want her to smile again and not be so miserable. I have a few locally made cards that I didn't send out as a holiday card. I'll write a nice message for mother and put it in the mail this weekend.

I received lovely Valentine's day cards from Opera Bitch and Shoozy. Thanks for the stickers and brownie recipe. I had a rough weekend and these were a nice moment of pure joy. I'll be prepping a round of cards this week to hopefully mail them this Friday. This thread is still wonderful filled with even more wonderful goons.

DLAO posted:This seems to be my life's story. "ALONE FOR VALENTINE'S DAY". I have to agree with everyone else that this definitely helps cheer up the lonely. I get why they call it "National Single Awareness Day".  Rythe posted:Grab some friends, a good bottle of wine/beer and watch some crappy movies together while you get drunk and bitch about horrible ex's. I always found that was a good way to handle the commercial "love" holidays. Thanks y'all, I'm actually playing D&D with some long time pals, there will be scotch, there will be a cacophony of dirty jokes (as our sessions normally go) and I'm sure some bitching about ex's. I'll be sure and try to write my Valentine's while in the midst of the scotch...drunken love is at least love, right?

Wings of Mine posted:Panorama_Change -- I love this retro Christmas card! Thank you! FYI those were obtained at a friend's consignment/record shop in Roanoke called The Bazaar. They're closed this coming weekend because the shop owner is doing a mini tour with her band. If you get the chance to check them out it's worth it. The store SNES is always running.

I received the most amazing Wolverine Valentine's Day cross stitch from Kafka's Goldfish today. Being a comic book fan my heart melted completely when I opened it. Having camera issues on my phone otherwise I'd share the love. I have 20 cards going out tomorrow if I can make it to the post office. I apologize for those cards received after Thursday, but know that the love inside will still be fresh. fake edit: that's love in the emotional definition of the word, not physical.

If I get one from someone and didn't have you in this batch I'll add you to my list for the next holiday.

DLAO posted:Glitter... that's what I meant by sparkles... the finer, the better lol. I used to believe it was all fairy dust. Best description of glitter I've heard was that's it's the herpes of craft supplies, and I stand by that.  edit: thanks to Wings of Mine for the valentine, also to your confetti. It sticks to everything!!

Just so everyone knows I haven't abandoned this thread and all the wonderful goons that were sending me letters; I needed to give a quick update. A few weeks ago I rescued a dog, and after exhausting all efforts to find the owner I've decided to keep her. My girlfriend and I have named her Pepper Stormageddon. It's the first time I've had an inside dog and she has not only taken over my life, but also stolen my heart. I apologize to all those goons that I haven't written a response to, I still plan on sending those out in the near future. For all the dog lovers in the this thread, here's a few pictures of my new found friend. http://imgur.com/a/3PIi7
