Default Stuff you never got and...

...and the best stuff you ever got for Christmas. I just watched the top 100 toys on VH1 and that got me thinking. I will start:

Three of the best presents I ever got were the original Xbox from the wife when she and I were just dating. Also, I got some just-started-dating-pre-marriage-I-am-gonna-trick-him-with-my-kink-level sex. Considering that one gift. Also, I had two Christmasses (sp?) where I got guitars. My first electric was when I was 11. It was a Gibson S-1 and I got a Peavey Backstage Plus amp with it. One year I got a Manglor. He had a torture chamber he would arise from when you pumped a gargoyle's tongue, covered in all his slimey glory. You could pull his arms and legs off, and put him back together. Cool...

I never had ANY Star Wars stuff. I wanted Star Wars stuff so bad I could taste it.There weretwo kids in the neighborhood that had the action figures AND the coolvehicles and playsets. The best one was the Death Star. It even had the garbage compactor with some silly foam stuff for garbage. Both of them never wanted to play Star Wars because they had it and were bored with it. Do you remember how much more fun your friend's toys were? How I coveted those sweet assed toys that they neverplayed with.

So...fess up.

Best present- Dragunov sniper rifle from my dad.

worst present- clothes that didnt fit. I dont mean like a size too big or small... I mean like a pair of pants that were like 7 sizes too small.

God yes, nothing will ever beat the initial Star Wars toys. That was once-in-a-lifetime awesome. We had a few guys and an X-Wing or two, but no Death Star. We got the soundtrack on cassette and played...no VHS in the house until 1984 (omg did you ever rent enormous video cassette players?!). Unthinkable now, movie merchandise without the actual movie to watch at home. Maybe that's why it was so awesome...you had to use your imagination with the toys.

Never got...um, well I never received the gift that said the Jews were right all along. lol

Best present: a takamine.. man I love that guitar.

Best present I didnt get: Well it seems to happen a lot since my parents kinda hardly know me but one year I got a buncha ipod stuff.. like accessories and man I was grinning thinking there was an ipod buried under the tree for me just waiting to be opened.. but nope.. nothing.. lol. I dont know how it happened but I got one of those ipod speaker systems this year, a really nice one at that, but it was because they forgot that I didn't have an ipod for another year. bwahahaha

I guess another present I didnt get was a pistol. Everyone before me in my family has been given a pistol on the christmas that they were 18 and mine never came.. pretty disappointing but oh well.
