Secret Santa

[Vesnic]

I am still miffed at the fact that Michael snubbed me on my Secret Santa last year. I propose that we have one again this year!

Create an interesting picture or short piece of writing that you think would really amuse/enchant/horrify the person. I would be happy to do the honors this year in drawing names from my not-so-proverbial gold-sequined top hat.

Please drop a line here if you are interested and I can have everyone sorted out by next week.

It'll be fun, I promise!

If you'd sent the naked pictures that he asked of you, he probably would've sent you something.

[Vesnic]

Like what? Naked pictures of him? I value my eyesight too much for that.

So is that a "yes", End?

As funny as that was, I have to decline the Secret Santa stuff, I never was much into those things. You’ll probably get a bunch of other people to join though.

[Locke]

Clarify this Secret Santa thing for me a little more. How exactly does it work? Who does the drawing? Are the gifts supposed to be somehow anonymous?Something writing-related sounds interesting; I have less art ability than Endmaster shows with his occasional forum cartoons, though.

[Vesnic]

Well, last year, a group of us decided it would be fun to have a Secret Santa, so Apoth drew names and then PMed each individual with the name of the person for whom they had to write/draw/create something. Some of the "gifts" included additions to someone's preexisting story, silly crappy MS Paint pictures and short, personalized works of fiction. Nothing elaborate, really. Everything was sent through PM. Naturally, the "deadline" was Christmas, but being the slackers that we are, lots of us made posts to the effect of Secret Auld Lang Syne and Secret Cupid and maybe even Secret Easterbunny.

[apotheosis]

I will send really raunchy pornographic images edited on paint with childhood characters superimposed to whoever I get... just as a warning. Or pictures of dead babies next to gourmet meals....

[Locke]

So presumably you find out who your Santa is when you recieve your gift? I've never worked where they do this sort of thing, and my friends are perpetually broke and not of the gift-exchanging persuasion. Forgive me for being a little vague. Anyway, I'm in. To whoever does happen to draw my name, please nothing overtly sexual, crude, or otherwise tasteless. EDIT: Unless you want to spring for a child sex robot; I hear there's a market for them this time of year.

[donteatpoop]

count me in.

[xnull]

Heck, this seems like fun. Please count me in.

[Vesnic]

In answer to your question, Locke: yes, you will know ultimately who yours is because you will get a PM from them. The fun part is waiting in anticipation, I suppose.

Glad to see some interest. Don't be shy, folks. Step right up! I won't bite (unless you ask me to).

[apotheosis]

I was half joking before, but I am in.

[ChubbyTeletubby]

Count me in.

[march5th00]

I'd actually like to be in too - it's a neat idea. Unfortunately I don't really know any of you guys. This would be a great thing to propose on CYS but would hate to steal the idea.

[Vesnic]

Secret Santa was hardly our original concept. I don't see why you couldn't do it over at CYS too...just don't expect the same level of hilarity and brilliance over there as you get here. But of course you know that already.

[Vesnic]

I will probably be sorting out the Secret Santas on Sunday night and sending everyone PM's to their SITE inboxes, since I know the ones on the forums are filling up.

Anyone else interested?

If you get me, mail me a bottle of vodka!

[Vesnic]

Note to self: Meteo and Katie want in.

[march5th00]

Put me in as well. I'm pretty sure anything I come up with is sure to entertain on some level.

[meteomage]

huh? I was just apologizing for not sending a gift last year, and stating that I also didn't recieve one. And yeah, I remember that almost EVERYONE was late last year.

but, okay... I'm in

[apotheosis]

Hall of Infinite Doors is still growing and can always use more contributions, hint hint.

[thoric]

I can give it a shot I guess. Count me in if it isn't too late already.

[Vesnic]

Ok, kids. PM's have been sent to the site email. If you have any trouble accessing your messages over there, post here and I'll PM you on the forum.

We have a total of ten participants this year! Ho ho hooray!

[Vesnic]

Let it be known to one and all that Mr. Locke has yet to deliver my Secret Santa to me.

[End Master]

*Points and laughs*

[donteatpoop]

Come to think of it, I don't think I recieved a present.

[ChubbyTeletubby]

Ya you did, dummy. I gave you that lump of coal.

Stupid.

[donteatpoop]

Oh yeah. I already burned that one. Talk about a buzz, WHEW!

Thanks, Chubby.

[ChubbyTeletubby]

No problem.

*zips up pants*

Now let us never speak of this again.

You make me sick.

[Hi! My name is: Katie]

I didn't get anything either... but I did give something to X-Null... I'm just not sure he got it. Meh. Bah Humbugs were the primary gift this year. I might return mine, if my secret santa would identify himself!

Maybe we could make it Secret Presidents... and have them due on Presidents day to give the slackers some time... because letting them off the hook is sooo not happening. And, if they don't follow through, we'll label them traitors and set up the guillotine. What do you think V? Are you in for some unorthodox justice?

[apotheosis]

Oh Katie, I'm such a dope. I did your gift a while ago, but I completely forgot the screen shot. I whored that free rice site until it hit 10,000 grains of rice. I was going to send you the screen shot but then I lost the browser. I'm sorry that it is kind of lame. But yes, I donated 10,000 grains of rice to starving children for you. That should feed an Ethiopian Village for generations going by their current diets.

Now you can take comfort in the fact that you have helped to feed starving people or something like that, so the next time you indulge or don't donate to something, you have an excuse.

EDIT: And I never got mine either.

Awww, that's one of the best gifts ever. Very creative. Thanks for feeding the children. I am most pleased.

[ChubbyTeletubby]

Huh. I don't really care about the "Ending world hunger part" but I do enjoy the game.

I didn't know what "Humus" was until now. I feel enlightened. Also I think I just fed 1,000 Ethiopians for 75 years. GO ME!

[Vesnic]

I have humus coming out of my ears. My family eats that shit by the gallon.

Yes, Katie, I absolutely agree that it is time to get out the guillotine. Do you think the pretty pink one would do? The one with the zombie Barbie engravings on the side? It needs a little sharpening, but I'm sure we could just stick Locke in there for a test run before the real executions get underway. I would use a watermelon instead, but I don't have one.

[ChubbyTeletubby]

I wanna get executed too!

Mount my head on a pike afterwards! And then defile my headless corpse!

[xnull]

Oh god. I forgot all about this. I'll give a new years gift for my victim instead.

[donteatpoop]

Oh god. I forgot all about this. I'll give a new years gift for my victim instead.

Dude, you're late for new years too.

Valentines day is coming up.

[Leblanc4prez]

I wanna write a peice for someone... I'll join!

[Vesnic]

Wow, Michael, over a year late, but you remembered!

I'll be reading this shortly. I can't even imagine what it might be...

[xnull]

I mean next New Years. Okay, Valentines Day seems wacky enough.

[Vesnic]

Life is an exercise in utter and complete pointlessness.

Thank you. THAT'S WHAT I'VE BEEN SAYING ALL ALONG!!

Jesus.

I would have sold that Jewish fuck-ass out for 1/4 a silver piece.

Hell, I would have sold him out for FREE!

Call me Judas, mutha fuckas!!

Hey, that's a good new online alias for me. Judas. I LIKE IT!

Heh, Nice one bro.

[Vesnic]

It was great, Michael. Keep up the good work! (Though I do wonder how you figured out that I have a heart-shaped bed and mountains of frilly sheer curtains...) Oh, and remember the site is all in BBC code now.

[Usoki]

Yes, those crafty British and their brackets. First a six hour version of Pride and Predjudice, and now their own coding language. What next?

[Usoki]

Even more horrible remakes of every play Shakespeare has ever written in order to make them even more "accessible"?

[apotheosis]

Butter + Sugar + Brownie Batter = Yummy

[Leblanc4prez]

Suki: Ahemm, Ladies and gentlemen good evening, you'll soon see that seeing is beliveing, your ears and your eyes will be bleeding, please check to see if you’re still breathing!

I am the ultimate, super, sensual, sexy, Pokemon assasin known as Suki! You've all heard my theam song, now let's get to buisness, shall we?

[Leblanc4prez]

Suki: WIND SCAR! *MRH gets slashed by a razor sharp wind*

[Leblanc4prez]

Suki: IRON REAVER SOUL STEALER! *MRH is torn appart and his soul ingested by Suki*

[Vesnic]

This has nothing to do with Secret Santa anymore.

If you've nothing on-topic to say, then why don't you just open up Word and write some nonsense there and hit the Delete button once it's out of your system?

[Usoki]

In case you haven't noticed, O Queen of Spite, we tend to hijack threads that are long since dead.

One would typically get over it in such a circumstance. :rolleyes:

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this the exact reason Sev eliminated the Off-Topic forum for a few months? We kept filling all of the forums with off-topic drivel, drowning out any and all actual discussions?

I think I might cry now... I'm out of zoloft.....
Damn Depression!

[Leblanc4prez]

I feel great! I got a new script from my doctor... I might just now be able to think in clarity for once... nope... nothing. (Damn)
