Holiday Plans/Stories

[Danny]

Thought we could all be merry and share our holiday plans with each other, aswell as any christmas stories you may have, so crack away.

Yeah so this year like most, I'll get up in the morning, open my goods. Then after a while I'll go play some of the new video games/console I got. Afterwards I go to a friends house to exchange gifts, and then up to my grans for christmas dinner with the family, then afterwards go see my girlfriend. That's pretty much it, to be honest I'll play most of the holidays playing video games cause my girlfriends away, but I've got a cracker of a list lined up.

I remember one holiday I was out back at my grans and I heard something running like hell up behind me, I turned around just in time to see a brown fuzz charge at me, I flew up in the air and crashed down on my back. Those weinmeramas(or however the fuck you spell it)are big and come at some speed.

So how about everyone else, I'm sure you can all top my plans

Actually I have to work the day before Xmas and the day after. Basically it's going to be me and my husband puttering around the house all day, like any other day. I'll probably make pot roast with potatoes and rice for dinner.

I'm getting him an SNES (yeah, the original) with about 6 games. I'm such a good wife :')

All I asked for were a subscription to Game Informer and a knockoff Wacom tablet, so I figure my chances are pretty good of getting that.

No extended family stuff :')

@Venetia: Best wife ever! He's gonna be so chuffed. Sounds like a fairly decent christmas to be honest, not over doing it can usually lead to a nice cosy day.

CHUFFED

i intend to sleep in rather late, then open my presents and retreat to my room with socks and a violin bow and a ds lite+POKEMON DIAMOND/PEARL while my parents and brother go to church or something and leave me to cockfight like a heathen.

 

[Lucavii]

I'll probably just wake up early open presents, eat, maybe get some love from my GF but anything else... nah

This is off topic but @ TREG,

Spoiler: Off topic story

Once I was at a friend's house and we'd knocked back a few, farting around playing Mario. (A guy friend--but not a boyfriend.) Suddenly his northern wall started thumping like crazy, and we could hear the moans of secks coming from the apt. next door.

My friend gets all pissed off and starts bitching about how the douchebag next door bangs some chick like three times a day/night, especially after midnight. I feel a little nervous because you see, this was some incredibly thin walls and some extremely loud throws of secksmaking.

Suddenly my friend is all, "that's it. I can't take it anymore." He throws off his shirt, grabs a box of chocolates on the coffee table his girlfriend had given him for valentine's day, and storms out. Of course, I follow.

He started pounding on the neighbor's door. Just before the neighbor opened the door my friend grabbed me around the waist and made a huge smile. The neighbor looked at him all pissed until my friend was all,

"hey! I could hear you seem to be having a hell of a time in there! Mind if we join?"

I was mortified.

The neighbor dude just stared, wide-eyed, for like 5 minutes, then was all, "uh ... Sorry man, we'll keep it down ..."

From then on my friend told me that his neighbor stopped f'ing people in the room next to his apartment XD

Oh and on topic: One year I accidentally knocked over the tree and it started a fire! :'O

It was put out shortly after, but it happened xmas eve so our gifts were under nothing xmas morning XD. From then on we had fake trees.

Wouldn't plastic be worse....?

 

[Despain]

That's nowhere near as bad as your friend getting a blowjob while you are sitting on the couch right next to him. Yeah he had a blanket over her head butvfvdvfdvdf

 

[holloway]

Walked in on my mate getting MANJOB right outside my tent at Leeds.


And I didn't know he was gay...

 

[CIPWM74]

I will go on a killing spree. Then have some potatoes.

 

[Despain]

I'm probably going to spend my Christmas morning sleeping late, then giving presents to the baby, and spending the afternoon and evening playing pokemon with Teloch.

Plan:
A gang of my mother's relatives, whom I have never met, will be converging on our home. This could be considered a cause for joy, but you have to understand that every single member of my mother's family that I've met up to this point has been either insane, an alcoholic, or too elderly to really interact with.The worst part of this is that I have absolutely no idea how insane these people are, and thus have no way to plan.

Story:
Most of my amusing holiday stories involve my dad blurting out something strange, simply because he says strange shit all the time. When I was three, we got an NES for Christmas, with SMB and Duck Hunt. Of course.

One of my first clear memories is of my dad commenting that Miyamoto must have been on some serious shit to make this, and that the mushrooms one collects as powerups are evidence. He also very calmly explained the joke to me.

Plan:
Left over pizza from the night before.  If I'm feeling festive I might even microwave it.  If I'm chock full of the Holiday Spirit I'll even throw that sucker in the oven - hell I might even preheat the bitch!
Though probably won't use the hot pepper.  Or add in extra cheese.  Probably not anyway.

Yeah when Christmas season starts I get all up in it, and the closer it gets the more realizations of the dramatics of my family and friends come back, and the more I find myself either planning to stay at home watching sappy Christmas movies or going to a bar - but only if it doesn't have a wreath (sp?) on the window.

 

[Venetia]

Just pretend you are. Play a porno really loud and jump up and down on your bed.

I ... might've done that once or twice to be a bitch to some annoying neighbors >_>

Holiday spirit update: I was able to find Final Fantasy II and III for the SNES in a flea market! Those are getting hard to find :'D

 

[sixtyandaquarter]

I could've sold you mine, only thing I don't have is the box.
I'm getting bored of my SNES not working anyway, should sell these games...
Screw it that's my Holiday Plan.  I'm going to, this week, sell off all the old collector craps to local dealers and head out and try to buy some rarities.

That's right, Atemu, now I have an excuse to look for that musical :x

 

[Dokien]

I plan to wake up at 7:00, mooch around my house for an hour looking at what my brothers and sister got in their stocking. Then blast out on my music system a new CD from my own stocking to wake the folks up. Then it's present time, and then I guess eating an extremely large meal. Then eat all the chocolate coins and just pass out next to the tree.

 

[iceplosion]

My girlfriend and I are staying at my parents on Christmas Eve and Christmas, room is soundproof so sex is ok but it will probably need to be at 7am or earlier since much later than that and my family are likely to show up (all my brothers and sisters came back as well cuz only two live at home now and I have five) also a lot of the rest of my family will show up on Christmas day, my parents house is huge so even with all those people I'll still manage to find some private time with my gf
I'll probably spend the day teaching my little brother to play guitar (he just started and he's getting one for Christmas) and hanging out with my relatives before a banquet sized Christmas dinner made by mom and aunts.
I guess that's the general plan.

Awesome!

On topic though, I'm going to have to spend Christmas with good family friends and dinner and all that garbage. I'm probably going to be going to a party with my squeeze or something. Other than that I'm working the holidays. So exciting!

 

[$t3v0]

Wake up early, open presents with the family. Have a sausage butty whilst planning what to buy with the money I normally receive. Eat dinner and excessive amounts of chocolates and cheap treats, Watch more TV. Play a bit of Fifa with a Guiness and fall asleep.

The real family shit comes on boxing day but I'm working

I'm going up north to Surfer's Paradise (is the name not enticing enough?!) for three weeks tomorrow, spending Christmas with my best mate up at my grandparent's apartment there (oh and they'll be there too... ). Christmas lunch and Christmas dinner are on the menu, I dunno what my mate and I will do. Spend time with my family and probably kick back to an intense Wii-session which I'm taking up. He and I have a thing going where we beat games in a day, so we'll probably do that (our first exploit was Mario Sunshine in 6 hours, with breaks in between for fighting/wrestling. He broke my nose for the first time on that day. Yes, he broke it a second time wrestling me in much the same fashion... ok this requires some explanation... end brackets... ).

About 6 months back during the holidays, we had nothing to do so I'm like, "Hey man, how about we beat Mario Sunshine in a day?" He agreed, so we did that. We also have this thing going where we wrestle each other into submission... He's a blackbelt in Tae Kwondo, and I'm a blackbelt in... games? So you can imagine he beats the crap out of me every time. So anyway, we hit 5 hours of gameplay and had an aforementioned wrestle. He accidentally swung his knee into my nose and he broke it! Imagine explaining that to your parents... Anyways, we beat the game in the next hour and that was it.
About 3 months back now, we were beating another game, I think it was Metal Slug Anthologies on Wii. He broke my nose in exactly the same way. Imagine explaining that to your parents... AGAIN! Good fun.
Last week we beat Guitar Hero 3 in a day on medium at the local EB Games. Yep, 4 hours of Guitar Hero.
I reckon we'll do Mario Galaxy next. I've already unlocked Luigi so we'll get 120 stars with him! That's my Christmas.
