That's a lot of expensive shit.
How much money's worth of stuff do you get per year?
$200 for me.
Fuck ton of Visa debit cards. Because they're the greatest gift of all.
If not:
Assassins Creed 2
30 Rock Season 3 DVD

I'm not sure on a specific price, but I believe it's around $200 from my mom, $200 from my dad, and $100 from my grandma.
But Christmas is the only time I get anything at all, so yeah.
Hmmm
Christ, man.
i just get sentimental gifts :(
we never had much money to become shopping whores on a designated day
All I want for christmas is youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

Hmmm
It sounds like a lot more than it is but still is kind of a lot baddood;
honestly though, I get absolutely nothing the rest of the year, so it's not like I'm spoiled.
And this is just an average. I could get less from any of them, but some rare times I've gotten more. They don't pool their money either, so I'm not getting big expensive stuff. Plus that price includes other things I didn't ask for like clothes, stocking stuffers, etc.

Same here, but they always somehow manage to pull it through
I think my grandma pays for a lot of my mom's stuff, seeing as she makes good money and lives by herself

Christ, man
oh i see VDood;
So... suggestions?
I'm more looking for stuff to remove, but at the same time I would equally like all of those.
Well, I noticed you have the same game on that list twice, only one has the popular gun mod. I would fix that.

lol
I would like both, they are different enough (I think)
I don't think I'll be getting a PS3 though saddood;
CHRISTMAS IS CANCELLED
but srsly i think i'm too old for a christmas wish list, maybe ask for a bottle of absinthe of whatever who cares lol
How about something actually worthwhile?
Ask for a ukulele.
I already have an electric guitar that I need to play baddood;
what about that stuff your sister wanted you to get
Nah man i decided Nah man
All I really want is a car.
Xbox 360 and new phone would be appreciated, but I can set those aside for a car.

I don't expect to get more than 1/4th of this list... It's just fun asking for a bunch of stuff so the element of surprise is larger.
Exactly, david. But aside from the psp and the gps, that all seems fairly easy to get.
I ask for things I normally wouldn't buy.
My girlfriend got me this amazing four and a half foot bamboo flute last year that she found in a tiny music shop.
It looks pretty close to the one carradine used in kill bill which was an extra cool thang.
Strongbad, don't get a Go. I haven't heard anything positive about it.

The games look cheaper digitally and idk it looks cool :(
But yeah I'll probably have my mom get me a 2000 with a bunch of games that would equal the price of a go.
Why would you get a 2000 and then buy games for it akudood;

Less expensive and I'm phasing out of piracy.
I am just asking for the first season of dollhouse on blu ray and a game

I always feel guilty when I ask for things so I never even make a list. happydood;

My family is the same way with me. Christmas is typically the only time I get anything at all (no allowance nor job), plus my birthday which involves much fewer gifts.
Stuff I want this year includes:
New Super Mario Bros. Wii
Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story
Pokemon HeartGold fully paid pre-order
Some arbitrary amount of Wii Points
computer parts: hopefully enough so I can finally have my own computer with extra parts I already have
how does it feel to be lower-middle class
If someone will just buy me New Super Mario Bros. Wii, I'll die happy.
I can't fucking believe you guys still own Wiis. What the fuck.
All I want is new pajama pants, short chestnut uggs, also ugg slippers and money to get my lip and two tattoos done.
i honestly don't really care anymore
maybe guitar hero 5 or something
ok i know i want nsmb wii and dragon ball vol. 2 but what else befuddlement
Edited.
I removed the PS3 because there's no way in hell :(
ps3 and xbox
-- Island, Doors Of Perception , Brave New World / Revisited, Point Counter Point, Literature And Science -- Huxley
-- 1984, Coming Up for Air, Keep the Aspidistra Flying -- Orwell
-- Permanent Revolution -- Leon Trotsky
