TU Cent Thoughts, Christmas Eve 2005

greybetaStill in the Christmas spirit?
In a whopping rout, eighty five percent of the voters in my first ever Fun Friday Five Poll said they would rather buy a gift than receive a gift. I was one of the few who would rather receive a gift than buy a gift. I'm just not good at buying things for others, plus I'm a greedy guy. At least I'm honest enough to admit it. Now, if you are true to your word leaders, there are some gifts you can still buy me (and I'm being totally serious here). Just because it's after Christmas does not mean we Americans can slack in our duty to sustain our system of capitalism. Contact me on my gmail account in my user info if you have twenty bucks to spare on a random poor college boy who feels no shame in begging. By now you've bought all the required Christmas presents and perhaps a Christmas bonus is cooking in. Humor me. Pretty please with sugar on top?
1. 8-bit Theater's Jesus Saves T-shirt. If there's anything I want on this list, it's this shirt because it defines who I am.
2. PurePwnage's i pwn noobs T-shirt. This shirt will let other people know how leet I am.
3. PurePwnage's HEAD SHOT! T-shirt. I would wear this in public just to see people's reactions.
4. MegaTokyo's MegaTokyo Logo Polo Shirt. In format settings, people would be curious what MegaTokyo is.
5. Penny Arcade's RPG Menu T-shirt. Perfect for any RPG gamer, but especially for fans of Final Fantasy.
6. Penny Arcade's Zelda Life Heart T-shirt. Because we all have life bars.
7. PVP Online's Han Shot First T-shirt. You are a mere casual Star Wars fan if you don't know what this shirt is talking about.
8. Right Stuf's NERV Logo T-shirt. You are not an anime fan if you don't know what that shirt is referencing.
9. Right Stuf's Ai Mode T-shirt. It looks lovely.
10. Right Stuf's Japanese Emergency Exit T-shirt. Admit it, seeing that guy run with Japanese letters is hilarious.
11. Right Stuf's Harakiri T-shirt. LOL.
12. Right Stuf's I wish I were Japanese (in Japanese letters) T-shirt. Don't we all?
13. Right Stuf's Japanese Respect the Emperor T-shirt. I am the emperor. Respect me.
14. Right Stuf's Blue Captain Tylor T-shirt. Cause he's an irresponsible leader.
15. Despair.com's :-( the Frownie Shirt. Perfect.
By the way, my T-shirt size is L.

I've added two new rules:
Tell me who you are. Because I actually care, really I do. The only comments I screen are anonymous ones. For those of you who don't know how screening works, this means that if you want to tell me something privately than you just post anonymously, but please tell me who you are in the comment. I do not want faceless people on my LJ, but I understand the need for it. It allows random friends to comment from time to time without registering a LJ and for private messages. I don't log IPs because I frankly don't care. I'd be like Ferrett-sensei and just allow wanton anonymous posting but I actually have this morbid curiosity that loves to know who I am talking to.
Follow my orders. I am the benevolent dictator of my LJ. No if's, and's, or but's about it. When I decree something on my LJ, it becomes law at that very instant. Of course, I can't control what you do on your own LJ but on mine I have the God given right to do what I want. This includes defriending you or simply deleting your comments until you follow the rules. Consider yourself properly warned.
Paid account project
I've got 35 up, 65 to go.renough will eventually get 15 more of them, but that still leaves my fifty short. I know one hundred user icons is a lot, but I must USE THEM ALL!!!

Link of the Day
Ferrett-sensei wants to know whether you would take the blue pill or the red pill. In other words, would you choose to live in a fantasy world, or the real world?
Sports Report
Steelers won BIG. Boo yah! Chiefs took care of business. And the Cowboys stole that game thanks to the refs...
I am playing the fifth place game in my fantasy league. *shrugs*
Internet humor
Visit PurePwnage to witness one of the most brilliant pieces of gaming humor ever. A little over to the top, but to good effect.
My sister gave me her old digital camera
So I decided to take some random picks. Hey,kimmaline, I've got something to show you...
A Christmas tree. Noticed the stuffed penguins hanging out? I won those in a claw machine. Yes, you can win at those infernal claw machines. Also you can see the "Love Story" sheet music on the background. I've been working on memorizing it.
Kawaii penguin number one, compared to Ayashi no Ceres DVD case for reference.
Kawaii penguin number two, compared to Ayashi no Ceres DVD case for reference.
It's D2 in a Santa's jester cap! Notice that the mirror reverses the "Daniel" on his T-shirt (man I'm so narcissistic that I'd even wear a T-shirt with my own name on it).
On opening presents
My family opens presents on the night of Christmas Eve. We usually do this around nine o'clock. The theory is that it gives us time to enjoy some of our gifts and then we can spend all day Christmas Day enjoying them. I heartily agree with this family tradition.
So when do you guys open presents?
