Re: What did you get?
 

a TV I'm supposed to help pay for (and it turns out it's damaged... Like it's been dropped and the corner bust open... so we're gonna get a replacement or a discount)

a self help book from my uncle who always bugs me and my brother (go to school, get an education, get a job, read the bible, get a haircut)

and 48 bucks...

But around thanksgiving my parents bought a new computer and DSL... Which I consider kind of a big family christmas gift... Even though I don't think my dad wants me using it's 2.8 Ghz, 512MB RAM, and DSL for games...

Re: What did you get?
 

My Birthday and Christmas combined (birthday being in January) from Santa, direct family, and distant family (grandparents and the like) only puts about $200 to the computer that I bought.

:unsure:

Aside from that, today I got two small tupperware, a small box (Magic: The Gathering card holding devices), a Weapons and Warfare book for LotR, a KMFDM shirt, and a LotR poster. The last two being from my sister as part of an "out-of-the-hat" sibling-to-sibling gift exchange.

Compared to what I see from the majority at this board, it appears as though I got the shaft. However, I've gotta remember that those outside of my direct family are asses who like to receive more than give, and my parents have to pay for five children's gifts.

But I'll make up for it when I invite a good half dozen friends over for my birthday.

P.S. Damn Deathshand... nice gifts! But yeah... I've received many a self-help "How to be a true Christian and stay away from Satan" books from my "ex-Aunt". It feels awkward to be happy not getting them anymore... I mean, a gift should be a gift, right? Nope, it just sucked more than it was worth. I feel for you man.
