Gotta pass this year. Last year was great, but I have a lot of shows and the post office trips are hard. Maybe next year. I just have a lot to do until the end of the year. :wave:

Just popping in to say that if creep doesn't take part in this, I will rightfully assume he likes being shat on by naked hobos, and that he probably uses his house-refurnishing tools to put stuff up his ass.

Hopefully he'll join and I get him. I have a good idea for gifts with these helpful clues. :thumb:

Hang on, weren't you moving house at EXACTLY the same time last year? I was worried my parcel wasn't going to make it.

Or are you being evicted again? :lol:

Too bad we're neither in this year's SS, plus I have already been his SS. This would have been a *perfect* gift.

Larry!

Three weeks ago, I opened a mystery box with three gifts and three different notes:

"Step 1: Combine with one of the other presents. Step 2: Make sure it's not with the mustard or magazine*. Step 3: Drink. If it tastes of mustard or magazine, check Step 2."

"CUP THIS TESTICLES. (get it? cup... as in... you know... ... MERRY CHRISTMAS!!)

"WARNING: This package includes a hidden microphone. Your Secret Santa may or may not be listening to your finger licking whilst you taste this mustard. He/she may or may not be naked whilst listening. ENJOY!"


I immediately thought, "this has to be from Larry B!" I literally laughed out loud, and I really appreciated the gifts, sentiment, and humor, and thought I'd wait to post as other people received their gifts, since mine arrived so early. As we've discussed ad nauseam, one can never have too much mustard, and I L-O-V-E breakfast tea, so thank you!

Wishing everyone a happy Thanksgiving!

(DISCLAIMER: If by slim chance someone else sent this, thank you, too!)

* I didn't receive a magazine.

Hey! I actually posted here to check if you had received my gifts, I'm glad you enjoyed them! The magazine should take a bit longer, I hope you enjoy it too. I'm kind of sorry it arrived so early, but I wanted to be better safe than sorry.

Ugh; I hate to even admit this (Artemis already knows), but I'm a letter carrier with the USPS, and it's made me cringe looking at all the old Secret Santa posts about the postal service shitting the bed when it comes to on time delivery and missing packages. I was conflicted on whether to post, as I was sure you were tracking my gift and saw that it had been delivered, and were thinking, "yo, 'bows- you gonna say something or not?" Good call on sending it early- Amazon really takes care of business! Thank you again for your thoughtfulness. :rockon:
