The "What I got for Christmas Thread" thread.

I know some people exchange gifts on Christmas Eve instead of Christmas day
Or the day after Christmas, as in my case this year! Our daughter and son-in-law, and our two beautiful grandsons, are arriving Thursday. I can't wait! :D

I bought myself a new Laptop (Asus Zenbook UX31A touch) and a new camera (Nikon D3200).
Good for you. Nice choices.

My relatives gave me a headache and a case of indigestion ... same thing they got me last year. ;)
It would be "spit out my coffee" time, but I'm not drinking coffee right now. :rofl:

I leave it up to the wife to go crazy each year. She never dissapoints. I took care of myself a few days back and ordered a knife I've had my eye on for some time. I stocked up on some refreshing beverages for the holiday. Have a house full of yummy stuff ready to cook. Kids are coming over tomorrow.. what more could a man want?

Santa gave you a "make your own diamond" kit!

Now all you need to do is get that gold away from the hobbits.

Shame on you, Mr Stinkster-Christmas-Grinch-Living-In-A-Dumpster-With-Giant-Ugly-Disgusting-Cockroaches. :mad: Coal looks like an appropriate gift for you this year, young man.

Now shape the hell up so Santa brings you something better next year!

I didn't get much myself, I bought myself a copy of Arkham Origins so I had something for under the tree. I asked for money from everyone else to put towards a PS4 at some point early next year.

The cash thing didn't go to plan though, I bought myself a chromecast earlier in the month and I'm toying between getting a chromebook or a 2nd hand netbook. It's looking like the latter as I've just added a tonne to my ebay watch list. For all I'd use it for, I can't justify

I got both the kids Nexus 7's this year.

Probably the biggest hit was the fact they can now play Minecraft together on said tablets. ;)

LOL same here. I can't watch Minecraft in split screen on our TV so I never played MC with my kids on the xBox. Fat man brought them tablets this year too, so we spent most of the day linked up on the tablets :) My vision is still blurred from that!!
