Christmas, Kwanzaa, Hanukkah, and New Year in one thread!

I honestly don't have anything I really want this year tbh. There's not really any games this holidays that I want (or the few I might want I can't easily get atm) so idk. I guess I'll just wait and see what I get
 
My parents already told me to just buy whatever I want as long as it's not more than x amount of money. So it's all either sitting in their room somewhere or being sent here. I just got a few games, some cheap ones and an expensive one.

We set up a christmas tree for the first time in years, since my sister isn't around to complain about it any more. I really missed having one.

It'll likely just be me and my parents for Christmas again, it's usually New Years Day that the entire family tries to be together for rather than Christmas. I probably can't avoid having a few drinks for New Years this year but that's fine, I hopefully won't drink too much.
 
fuck you man, if you ain't getting drunk on new years, then what's the bloody point

It's ok Stargravy~
 
I'd rather watch the ones that do get drunk do stupid shit rather than be the one doing. I'm not 18 yet so I should probably hold off anyway.

New Years is usually just sitting around the heater with the family until midnight then watching the fireworks go off for a couple of minutes. It's not super eventful but I like it. The people next to us in the park do the hour of power every year which is always funny to watch when people start to break and have to run away and throw up.
 
My family always stays home and plays Uno on New Years'.

Aside from socks, I'd also like a Toblerone bar and more binder pages for my Pokemon cards, but that's all - tho I doubt my parents will respect my wish for "no new stuff", as always... I'm getting my brother Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Edition, more little fish for my dad (the tank's getting very empty), and some books and $1000 for my mom (to help pay off her credit card this month - hence I really don't want to be given much).

Finally someone else who still has/collects Pokemon cards! I wonder what your collection is like

Well, I've been collecting for 16 years, so it's pretty massive at this point. Like, about seven 1 inch binders' full including doubles and energies; it might be up to 8 now, tho - since I ran out of sheets, I've got a bunch that have yet to be filed. I'd weigh the collection, but the bathroom scale's out of batteries atm - might be around 10-15 pounds, idk, I'm terrible at guessing weight. I used to buy them a lot more when I was younger, but nowadays, I only really aim to get all 4 pack designs for each set, although over the years, I've missed a couple and only have 1-3 of a couple others, which rots.
 
That's pretty impressive! I've been collecting for about 10 years, I have 2 main binders, one giant ziploc bag for actual decks (I think there's 5) and one tin full of energies and trainers. My only goal is to catch them all. I don't really care about completing sets, I just want to have 1 of every pokemon. Which is why one binder is for display and one for duplicates. In the display binder, I have it organized in pokedex order (because the cover looks like a pokedex). I even took the time to put in gaps and when I get a new pokemon, it fills in the gap. Of course some pokemon like Kadabra are impossible but *shrug*. Would love to see your collection/show you mine in detail but this is not the place for that.
 
Pie in the sky gift is some money to go towards a car but as if that will happen. Otherwise Amazon / Audible credit because you can never have enough readibles, or a gift card to a clothes store because a lot of my stuff is getting worn out.

Not super fussed about games. Paper Jam would be cool but I'll probably end up getting it for myself.

I don't like getting novelty gifts because I won't use them and don't have anywhere to put them. :< I'd rather someone donating something in my name instead because either way I won't use it but at least that way somebody gets something nice out of it.
