Im fairly easy to shop for - last year my santa was great to me with a wicked Godzilla mask, some pillows and action figures --- but also pasta sauce lol

I mainly collect figures of various things but anything with Godzilla, King Kong, Star Wars is fine

I have 2 cats, Mila and Luigi (lady and boy)

Umm, I have a PS4 but dont really play much

I like all types of movies and memorabilia with them - some faves are Spinal Tap, Rocky, Predator, Terminator (anything Schwarzenegger really), classic Universal horror movies

I am in Canada too

Giftwise I'm open to anything including alcohol/pornography/drugs and hilariously redundant electronics although I don't have any rear end in a top hat pets.

Also I'm going to be going home for christmas on the 17th so it would be really cool if your gift could arrive before then, otherwise it will be way into the new year before I can post about it.


Last year Nelson MandEULA sent me a super-sweet playstation and some homemade snacks although I am sorry to report that I still haven't completed Busby 3D :(

I would also like hear about any cool stories that involve the dinosaur onesie and 420 related accessories that I sent to THC last year.

I like old macs, gadgets, tools, nerdy stuff, nintendo when nintendo was still good, shooting but how the hell you gonna ship anything for that
wifey has a dog who is a mini fox terrier but probably wouldn't wear anything
I have a non-technical girl childe who is 11 months old right now, but if you send clothes remember our seasons are opposite so she won't have an opportunity to wear a size 0 xmas sweater even at a Christmas-in-July party
My shirt size would probably be US size M. malcolm XML got me an awesome xmas sweater in 2013 that fits well

Hi YOSPOS it's Me ShadowHawk I would like to do Secret Santa for the fourth time as it is a fine tradition every year. Last year the woman at the UPS store even recognized me from the previous year because I talked to her about internet secret santa.

I like things local to wherever you're from, especially some non-consumable things. Fun stuff to put on my desk at work would be nice too. I especially like any hand-crafted creative technomological things (the beep-boop machine from last year is amazing and still entertains people). I have all the Ubuntu-related schwag that exists already.

No booze please. ~My girlfriend~ and I have two cats and a dog now. One of the cats is mine.

I wear medium t-shirts and sweat pants almost every day to work because I am a total goon at a hip company.


If you're running out of ideas I will appreciate most dinosaur and lizard themed things as a bit of a running joke.
