Default Re: How to Get What You Want at Christmas

lol. That was funny. I actually wrote something similar to this for the website I work for...it's down right now for a layout upgrade, but I have it saved on my computer:

Next you will have to drop hints like a mad man (or woman). Be sure to tell all of your relatives exactly what you want, and tell each set of relatives a different game, that way you don’t accidentally get the same game twice. Relatives other than your immediate family may not be interested in dropping $50 dollars on you, so you might want to entice a sibling into asking a certain relative for a “combination” gift, which is for both of you. This is also the perfect time of year to find a boyfriend or girlfriend. These significant others usually give out great gifts, so whip out your Don Juan skills and get cracking. It may seem cruel and manipulative, but just remember that video games are an art, and what must be done must be done.
Anyway, +rep. In order for it to work you have to hope your grandparents are last minute shoppers, because time is almost up.
