Who else needs to get better at dropping christmas hints?

At the beginning of November, I dropped my one and only chritmas hint to my parents: I wrote down the prices and websites from which they could order Come Find Us, Gunnie Season, and Eyetrip. I then tack this information to the outside of my bedroom door. Pretty blunt, right?

This morning, I recieve:

3 shirts

Smartwool socks

3 or 4 books (all of which look terrible)

A new TV (which isn't really my present, its a family thing, and it was free)

I'm dissapointed for sounding like such a needy brat, but seriously? I was really looking forward to watching the 4bi9 crew get nasty in the BC before I went to shred on Christmas day.

Anybody else feel like they made it obvious, and they didn't get it?

 
..

but to add a little substance to this post,

i got a bunch of clothes, base layer, ski socks, socks, couple casual hoodies from the aunt, a SICK 2m long double something its like a blanket that is the warmesty thing youve seen!

than i got a gopro ... WIN

and alot of chocolate, and a pool cue! my own! so sickkkk
 
My parents just blatenly ask me for links to specific items, and they choose a few of them to give to me. It's really nice
 
i would like to take this moment to point out how awkward it is to go on about what you want. especially if its pricey. I just say get whatever, cuz half the time you want to be there to get the right thing anyway.
 
I never ask anything but will hint let's say my bass drum is broken, I tell my mom, and guess what I got for christmas, a bass drum head. then I get the useful but not fun to have present ( this year was windshield washer) and the rest I get money, be stoked with what you got, mostly if uyou don't even make presents
 
i texted my mom about the swix ski-waxing kit as soon as i saw it on tramdock, said "that's what i want for christmas."

this morning, i opened a box to find a swix ski-waxing kit from tramdock.

FUCK YEAH I'M BETTER THAN YOU AND YOUR SHITTY PRESENTS HAHA YOU SUCK

 
Please, these are the presents that I dont have to return automatically.

atleast you got mind game to play with

i went to use my shower radio only to find it didnt come with batteries, i wasnt about to get out all wet hunting for batteries just to listen to shitty fm radio for 10 minutes while i washed my hair
 
My mommy asked me. this was the first year I ever blatantly said what I wanted. I never ask for anything specific, I take what I get.
 
... Its not all about the gifts... I like watching people open the gifts I give them more than receiving gifts and whining about it...

My mom took me into a bookstore, found One Hundred Years of Solitude, and told me to act surprised. I told my dad that I'd go halfers on a portrait lens, and he told me to stop looking through his drawers.
 
if your parents know you good youll get decent stuff

i got, a couple books, some animal posters, a shirt with a deer on it and a mcdonalds gift card.

im stoked about all of it.

i got some other stuff too from my grandparents and girlfriend and none of it was dumb.

thoughtful gifts are easy when youre good friends with your family.
 
Seriously, if you and your parents actually talk to each other every once in a while, you actually start to figure out what they like, and vice versa. I didn't ask for anything, other than dropping a hint about a waxing iron.
 
I got a friggin Bionicle. Welcome to the club bro, but in all seriousness I may have recieved shitty gifts. However, think about the kids in Africa, then compare your gifts.
 
someone didn't get what they wanted for X-mas. I am really stoked on my gifts. Snowglobe, Lion T-shirt, some hestra mittens which I need desperately and a GoPro HD which I will pick up this week.
 
hahaha i gave everyone in my family socks. which is actually a pretty good gift because really, who doesn't need socks? instead of trying to get clever gifts which don't get used sometimes its good to just buy something simple that will get used.

i didn't ask for anything, but my parents got me all stuff i really wanted, which was really cool. my one brother bought my other brother a samurai sword... i don't know why..

and for those interested, check out our rap in the videos section
 
mom: what do you want for christmas this year?

me: money, only money, I'm not gonna go through the hassel of explaining what I want or where to get it, just cut me a check and we'll call it good

guess what my parents handed me? a check
 
remember when christmas was about the family and not about the money? thanks for ruining that mrstskier.
 
i only cared about presents when there were things i wanted. this year i didnt ask for anything so any gift was a pleasant surprise. it was much less stressful. although we can all agree christmas gets less awesome the older you get. i remember xmas morning as like a 10 year old just being stoked out of my mind to get the toys i asked for
 
There has been a cut-out from a magazine with a nice fountain pen circled on our kitchen table for months. Whenever my mom asked me what I wanted it was always with "anything other then that pen (and yadayadayada)" this year? no pen. what? not a big deal but that was the one thing I thought was a shoe-in
 
I got so many socks today, and it was AWESOME ! I live on my own, and somehow they always manage to disappear. So regular socks were great, and then ski socks, well you can never have enough. Although I have to say, my favorite present was a Boondocks Saint t shirt my lil brother got me, because he wrapped it in the debris from his Jeep ( some asshole crashed into our car last night and drove off ). It's not about what you get, it's really about who it came from and what it means.
 
yeah bro, im all high and mighty and mature and shit and i think youre a dick because you are worried about gifts on christmas. bro, its not about what you get, its about what you give,im really into discussing morals and feeling and shit with strangers on the internet, i love to judge others by the shit they write too. so go out there and get a full-time job and buy your parents a fucking mercedes bro because thats exactly what i did bro because of how much better i am than everyone else. god i am so fucking self-righteous i think sometimes i shit rays of like crazy-ass charity/feelgood/sunshine. fuck yeah bro.
