Leftover Jingle Jam and Others IOW Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays Giveaway(Closed for Drawings)

I JUST realized Christmas is THIS week. :exploding_head::scream::crazy_face: This Christmas is going to be way different. We are going into the “RED” zone Monday so we aren’t going to have much of a Christmas this year. But we got each other so there’s that.

So let’s get to the giveaway.
Rules…The usual…

  1. 2 Weeks Community Forum Membership
  2. 8 Badges
  3. List games in order as how much you want them.
  4. Tell me about a different, abnormal, weird Christmas you have had. Have you ever given “gag gifts” as presents? Or gotten weird gag gifts? Or what strange food have you eaten on Christmas Day? (I have had pizza on Christmas day once.)
    Edited: I am such a twit. If you don’t celebrate Christmas, tell us about a holiday that you DO celebrate and educate us(ME too). Let us know if Covid has affected your Holidays and time with family…

@delenn13, thanks for the giveaways!

For me Christmas food is rather casual. Some times we have ham or duck but it’s not always a regular occurrence. My mom always made just a large dinner with a bunch of different things, because it was a holiday. I am sure that we have had pizza on occasion as well. As for gag gifts, I have never given one and I don’t think I have ever received one either. I guess I am just plain boring, lol! And for this year, we are just going to sit around at home and probably watch Netflix and snack on random things, because why not? Sometimes being lazy and bumming around at home is the best thing to do on a day off!

My family always makes a bajilion things from carp. This is Polish tradition, but I hate it - so I managed to talk my mom into buying salmon for me. In case anyone asks, it’s also Polish Catholic tradition to only eat fish on Christmas Eve. Is it really strange? Well, for Poland, imo yes

We once tried to change the creamfilling in profiterols with mayonaise to trick people, but we were a little bit too obvious at pushing people to try it. (I was still a kid)

That there @delenn13 be spoilin’ us with them give’ways ag’in! :man_farmer:

It turns out Christmas day is a great day to travel (during non-pandemic times) because most people are already at their destination by then. Last visit to Japan involved what felt like a thousand years in an airplane. Not so pleasant! And aside from a bucket of KFC, not celebrated at the destination lol. It was also weird to not be spending that time with family, but of course we did Christmas early. Now, every year we do Christmas at Thanksgiving with my family, then Christmas at Christmas with the in-laws.

Different location, but about the same longitude, actually:

Thanks again, and put me down for:

  2. Sunless Sea
  3. For The King
  4. Avencast: Rise of the Mage

I had a weird Christmas day once when I was pretty young. My mom had wanted to see a Christmas tree full of presents under it, I mean full, like stacked-to-the-ceiling full (which I guess isn’t under the tree at this point), like at the end of the movie Home Alone 2 if you’ve ever seen it. So she had the idea of decorating empty boxes with wrapping paper and decorating everywhere with these boxes, but she never told me or my brother. So when we got up for Christmas morning, we saw what we thought were tons and tons of presents everywhere, except… they were all empty. My mom didn’t do it to be mean, she just wanted to decorate our place with those boxes. And there were actual presents under the tree that year, and it was memorable enough because yeah, it did look pretty cool to see all these “presents” everywhere :rofl:

And I’ll just enter for these 2 games:

  1. AWAY: Journey to the Unexpected
  2. Tooth and Tail

Have I given any gag gifts as presents? Maybe… does this one count?


I gave it to a friend a couple of years ago, but she’s a dominatrix, so it was very appropriate - for her - to use on her pets. A gag, but not a gag.
Now whenever I’m at her place and she gets riled up about something and starts speaking wamen, I calmly walk to her lash stash to get it. I come back, apply, and hug for results.
She calms down, laughs all around, it became a running gag amongst her friends.
So a gag, but not a gag, but a gag… I dunno, you decide.

The strangest Christmas food I eve ate? Beer and snacks.
I was on a business trip and everything was going as planned, I’ve finished my last meeting before noon 24th and was about to fly back home for a Christmas eve a couple of hours later. But then weather happened and my connecting flight from Prague didn’t. The worst thing about it was that every hour or two they would re-delay the flight, which kept me stuck on the airport past midnight 25th.
With every passing hour I was getting angrier and angrier, as there are no cancer chambers on that airport and they wouldn’t let me out for a smoke. I don’t eat breakfasts, I don’t eat lunches, so at that point my stomach was hungry, but I don’t get hungry when I’m angry. I can drink though, and Czechs are great brewers, so I went for that. After a few I wasn’t angry anymore, and after a couple more I was ready to eat. And - when I’m ready - I eat NOW. I went to the closest food source - which was a vending machine - and pieced together a traditional Polish twelve-dish supper.
Tiny pretzels were my pierogi and Bounty was my carp. Mountain dew was supposed to be my bigos, but it turns out it tastes like piss, so I didn’t have bigos that night.

The weirdest gift I’ve been given? A Barbie.
When my brother and I were kids we used to play the want game. Whenever we passed a store display, or watch commercials or catalogs (anything that contained toys) we would point out the things we wanted. It was just a pastime for us alone.
It turned out that my mum, bless her heart, took notice, paid close attention, and apparently a doll was amongst the most frequent of our “wants”. Now, this was probably because those dolls were accompanied by cars, houses and other cool accessories which we were actually pointing to, but because we never asked our parents for presents, they did their best to guess.
And so, both my brother and I got a Barbie, each. This made me so gay, I enjoy burly men, dance choreography and wearing no-show socks now - very, very much.

My every Christmas is a family event, so I really don’t have any interesting stories to tell. This year’s gonna be the first odd one… anyways, I’d like to enter for:

  1. War for the Overworld
  2. Broken Sword Trilogy
  3. Among the Sleep - Enhanced Edition
  4. Broken Sword: Director’s Cut
  5. Alien Breed: Impact
  6. Orcs Must Die! 2
  7. AWAY: Journey to the Unexpected
  8. Bad Dream: Coma
  9. Bohemian Killing

PS Just kidding, I would never wear no-shows.

Hm. I’ve never given a silly gift and my holidays were more ugh, than weird. Funny thing I used to enjoy doing was decorating the plastic tree with my mother for Christmas. Took the same one out every year until it was done and dusted. We both suck at decorating, so at the end, when the lights were turned on, the poor thing would always be an embarrassment to Fir Kind. ^^ Best laughs of the whole year, most years.

Entering for:

  1. Avencast: Rise of the Mage
  2. War for the Overworld

Cheers. :heart:

Oh so, I am a muslim and we have this holiday called Eid al-Fitr back in May (or end of Ramadhan) when we were supposed to be you know going back to our hometown to celebrate with all the folks there. By the end of the prayer, the older people/elder usually give money to the younger ones (or the one with no earnings, basically) and like halloween (kinda?) children will go house to house to ask for money (not candy). With all the lockdown and all of course we couldn’t do that. The good thing is last year we went there twice instead of once so I guess it kinda act as a replacement lol.
