Merry Christmas! Post your presents here!

Hello! The Zelaron administration and our evil Santa guardian wish you all a Merry Christmas! Evil Santa's last visit here was a couple of years ago, so I'm not sure how many of you still remember him. In less than a month from now, Zelaron has been around for five years... Wow.

The Zelaron administration will perhaps bring you some rather large and interesting new site features from time to time during next year, so be good members, respect the hard-working mods, and keep posting informative threads so search engines will like us even more. Oh yeah, Evil Santa hopes you enjoy his temporary Christmas present: browser-lagging ASCII snow. ;)

Go ahead and report in this thread what Christmas presents you have received, once/if that happens...

Giving the gift of spam for almost 5 years.

Happy Holidays to all, And to all a snowless christmas!

Times told by customers (quite rudely, I might add) that I should be saying "Merry Christmas" and not "Happy Holidays": 3. I get a kick out of telling them Happy Holidays anyway. I love that glare I get. Mmm...

Gift list thus far:

Monkey Toe Socks (From my sisters b/f. Woooo! Toe Socks! Oook!)
PS2 Memory Card (Came with the toe socks. o.O He's weird.)
Lavendar Bath Salt (From sister. Purrrrr.)

Merry Christmas!

I got a chess clock.

For those that don't know what it is:

My sister got a Wii. For those that don't know what it is, check out South Park's episodes 1012 and 1013.

Play a lot of chess?

A good bit. I'm not that great, but yea I like to play.

I would still have liked a Wii. Or another system.

They might have only been able to find the one, and had to pick a kid. Take it as a compliment to your intelligence.

Rofl. I'll think of it that way from now on.

Merry Christmas to you all!

I got a nice stack of books that will keep me occupied for a few days, the traditional chocolate (and an orange in the toe of my stocking), a couple of British Humour DVDs (The Secret Policeman's Ball, The Mighty Boosh, Morecambe and Wise), and a brand new keyboard:

Quote:

As you know, it is very difficult to convey things these days without overstepping the bounds of political correctness. That led me to consult with my attorney, so I feel that I am now safe in promulgating the following:

Please accept with no obligation, explicit or implied, my best wishes for an environmentally conscious, socially responsible, low stress, non-addictive, gender neutral celebration of the winter solstice holiday [1], practiced with the most enjoyable traditions of religious persuasion or secular practices of your choice with respect for the religious/secular persuasions and/or traditions of others, or their choice not to practice religious or secular traditions at all.

I also wish you a fiscally successful, personally fulfilling and medically uncomplicated recognition of the onset of the generally accepted calendar year 2007, but not without due respect for the calendars of choice of other cultures whose contributions to society have helped make our country great (not to imply that this country is necessarily greater than any other country) and without regard to the race, creed, color, age, physical ability, religious faith or sexual preference of the wishee.

By accepting this greeting, you are accepting these terms:

This greeting is subject to clarification or withdrawal. It is freely transferable with no alteration to the original greeting. It implies no promise by the wisher to actually implement any of the wishes for himself or others and is void where prohibited by law, and is revocable at the sole discretion of the wisher. This wish is warranted to perform as expected within the usual application of good tidings for a period of one year or until the issuance of a subsequent holiday greeting, whichever comes first, and warranty is limited to replacement of this wish or issuance of a new wish at the sole discretion of the wisher.

[1] or summer solstice, if recipient is inhabiting the southern hemisphere for the duration of this greeting

;)

I have to give credit where it's due:
