    Tis the Season (or nearly) to be jolly,
    Tra la la la la
    La la la la.........................................

    Bahhhhhhhhhhhhhh Humbugggg !!!!!!!!

    So what are u all hoping for in your stockings this year ??(not counting six foot blonde beauties ;))

    I think I’ve been a good little lad this year so I'm going to Santa myself up with a PS2 :) and some good books !

    I know my family will subject me to such Christmas disasters as new underwear and Jumpers and maybe something for the house !!! Pffffffffttttt The best way to get something u actually want for Christmas is to go out and get it yourself thus avoiding all disappointment ;)

    So what do U want/not want this year????

    Well, I've cheated a bit this year in that I've already got my present from Mammy - a Tux ;) When you're an upstanding member of the community like me, you are expected to attend all kinds of events that require black tie!

    After that - I'm not pushed. I don't really need anything, so anything is a bonus!

    I'll probably just get money, which I prefere, beause Then I can do with it what I like.

    It's crap over here, they turned on the christmas lights last night, FFS the 18th of Nov, WTF. In Kilkenny they only turned them on on the 6th of Dec which I still thought was too early. (I'm in england BTW)

    Actually the money idea is a good one. For the past two years I have let santa get me whatever he bloody well wanted. He spent an absolute fortune, and I know I didn't appreciate what I got as much as I should (spoilt brat) ;)

    This year I would like a PS2, or else a range of new computer books. The PS2 would't be difficult for them to buy, but I don't think they would do it. I acutally don't understand it, because they would end up spending that amount on me, but wouldn't be seen buying a console. So what I might do is jump in there early and just ask for the cash. It's easier on them, but then again it's difficult to get mom, to hand over just cash. She always want to give me something meaningful, and something I will cherish. So give me a bloody PS2 :rolleyes:

    ;-phobos-)

    Weston. For you to get a PS2 is a silly thing because they are tripe. As I said to you before, wait for the fucking X-BOX!

    If it's a DVD Player you want, buy a DVD Player. If it's a Play Station you want, get one. You don't want a PS2 because it's good purely because they're not good. At all. Nothing (except maybe Time Crisis 2) has impressed me for it so much that I MUST BUY IT.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,484 ✭✭✭✭Stephen


    I've been thinking of buying myself a nice PS2 for christmas, but not before i get my hands on some kind of device to make it work with a pc monitor (see games board)... can't afford a telly for it too, being a miserly student.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 954 ✭✭✭Yo Mamma

    Er, anyway, back to the topic

    I dunno what the rest of the family have planned, but methinks I'll be my own santa this year. Already I'm drooling over the prospect of a half - decent computer spec that won't cost an arm and a leg.

    Besides that, the usual suspects (in terms of presents) will probably make a reappearance this year (Music CD's, Games, Clothes etc.)

    I'm just trying to think what I should get the family... older brothers are sorted - I just keep getting stuck with Freud's dilemma 'But what do women want?' Perfume? Clothes? Electrical appliances?

    What I really want this Christmas is to pass my exams. Only trouble is, I actually have to turn up to college to see that happen :o


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,272 ✭✭✭✭Atomic Pineapple


    A couple of Ps2 games and a gameboy advance would do nicely

    I should hopefully be able to afford the GameCube before christmas, so that's one less thing for Santy to bring me... there's a few cds and games I haven't got around to buying though :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,281 ✭✭✭DeadBankClerk
