Accidentally including something extra because you forgot where the hell it was is the truest expression of the Dirty Santa spirit I can think of.

A Logitech wireless trackball

Finally someone else sees the light.

Seriously, the only thing I don't love about this thing is the odd placement of the back/forward buttons(or whatever those are), but I suppose that's kind of necessary considering there's a giant ball where those would normally be.

Smiler · « **Reply #6 on:** December 25, 2013, 06:45:53 AM »

They are kind of nice but honestly they suck outside of games, as they are seemingly always mapped to back and forward, even when you switch them.

So far I've got:

Two packs of Magic cards from my cousin

Thanks Dogstar! Some really sweet stuff in here. Pretty sure Ryuk just stopped haunting my nightmares so it'll be good to have him back.

My wife saw Asterix and Obelix and started spouting something unintelligible in I guess French? She was excited to know a game I didn't!

Glad to have two copies of this edition of the McDowell News. My McDowell News redundancy has been lacking of late.

Thanks again Dogstar! Woo!

Hooray! A Christmas victory!

Queen Crab is better than the cover suggests, but I don't see myself needing to read it again despite having backed the Kickstarter campaign.

The Animal Man issues are the complete run, up until the point when I moved away from my LCS. It's a few months behind the current run, which is slated to end soon.

When you visit California, you should be fine as long as you stay away from Lost Angels. In an RPG known for stacking the odds against the players (Deadlands), it's one of the nastier places.

It worked an hour or two after I posted that message, so I imagine the server was just having a coughing spasm or something.

A mysterious box from one Defenestration. Its contents are a mystery, but it bears an ominous string of numerals on it.

Oh shit, packing peanuts! Christmas is complete! Thanks Defen!

The filler stuff is pretty neat too.

First up, a mixtape of some sort. Does it declare Defenestration's love for me? Am I legally obligated to tape over it if we break up?

WHO PUT THIS QUALITY IN MY DIRTY SANTA PACKAGE

THIS IS NOT WHAT I WAS PREPARED FOR

Th... this is more like it, yeah.

That bootleg Kanon DVD is a classic and I'm sure any Brontoid that receives it will have no qualms about keeping it forever.

Meanwhile, Peace Maker is a tale of one teenager's epic quest to fix whatever the hell is wrong with everyone's pupils.

I took a picture of Advent Children next to Advent Children because, um, I'm an asshole. Moving on.

A full, working Game Boy Advance, complete with lack-of-backlight! Pretty neat to receive after giving away like three of these things to pretty girls and having one DS die on me. Would be neater if I hadn't also given away all my GBA games to said pretty girls, but c'est la vie. (I think I still have MCE's Japanese Pokemon around here somewhere though.)

And then there's this monster, buried inanimate in arctic bubble wrap for thousands of years, recently unearthed by a team of scientists and, quite foolishly, resuscitated by yours truly...

It's a giant assfuck spaceship! I wonder if it contains a colony of friendly aliens who might...

Oh. Ohhhhh.

Bwop bwop bwop bwop

Bwop bwop bwop... uh, lemme try this again.

Bwop bwop bwop bwop

Bwop bwop bwop BWOP!

You can't really tell from this photo, but Starscream has a simply ludicrous amount of guns on him. Dude's got main guns, gun shoulders, gun nipples, gun wrists, little guns in his legs and I think those are actually gun toes. Also, that DVD case there only comes about halfway up his foot, so this is... a goddam lot of fucking Starscream to fit in my little condo. He manages though.

Overall, a pretty goddam epic haul. Thanks and Merry Christmas, Defe--

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

I like how you have the shitty comic books I sent covered up by everything else. I would too.

I got socks, boxer shorts and slippers... and I loved it. I have like the oldest man taste in gifts ever.

For some reason I took a c r a p l o a d of pictures of my PDS package.

The giant stone hold hurls a shark at her. Like he just has one, in his house.

Really looking forward to reading these, to be honest. I never have, and I've always meant to.

Vampirella, the shenanigans you get up to...

dear lord in heaven

Dogstar, this box was a WILD RIDE

I'm pretty psyched about a lot of these comics, and all of these books.

TRUMP-O-MOTO and the Sandman comics are my favs.

I am delighted.
