Things you might want: shoot, I never buy anything for myself, so I feel especially awkward telling a stranger what to buy me. I'm doing this cuz I think its the last b9 SS and I wanna be a part of it, so I'm not really in it to receive something, and I wanna try my hand at getting someone a sweet present cuz I think I'm usually a good gift giver. Anything related to the above interests/bands/shows/movies would be fine. Maybe art if you draw? Something weird and specific to your life would be cool. Or maybe something specific to your town? Stickers of a local record shop or cool spot downtown or something? Okay... I'm dragging this out. I like t-shirts, art, trinkets, coffee table books, weird stuff, memorabilia, posters. You can put as much or as little effort into it as possible and I'd be happy.
Things you DON'T want: I'd be stoked on anything really. I don't expect much and will be grateful for anything. don't send something that could spoil in the mail I guess?
Food allergies: none, but I'm super picky. if you really wanna send food, do like baked goods or something... I don't really like vegetables unfortunately.
Amazon wishlist/online store links: do a lot of people actually have these?
Other/Misc info: doing a phd in economics. my 3 year old daughter is my world (that's why I have elephants listed). my dog is also like a child (lame i know). lived in LA for a few years. just started a small brown bike type band. left on the political spectrum. i dunno... buying a house soon?

Can personally vouch for Jim. He stepped up last year and made sure Vincent got something nice after being stiffed by his person. Don't let that low post count concern you, Jim has a heart of gold.

I hate when people say this. I like Gracie, so no disrespect to her, but there are so many great thoughtful gifts on here every year from a bunch of people.

As long as you aren't stiffed, it shouldn't matter who you get.

by **ooGracie** » Fri Nov 03, 2017 4:26 pm

I feel like especially last year, so many people nailed it!

by **!azzip** » Fri Nov 03, 2017 5:06 pm

Last year was stacked. “Heavy hitters” all around. Whoever gets worship this year should stiff/stuff him

by **Cutsman** » Fri Nov 03, 2017 10:21 pm

To clarify I am very happy and excited for whomever I get. Ive always enjoyed my senders and its always been a great time (except the one year I got stiffed but whatever). can't wait to see what everyone gets!

by **The Great Hambino** » Sat Nov 04, 2017 8:37 pm

Matches will be going out tomorrow. I did my best to match everyone based on their requests (shipping preference, poster with similar join date, etc.) and think I managed to pull it off.

I'm only able to see matches from last year so if you got paired with someone you bought for 2-3 years ago let me know and I'll move things around before people start buying. Also willing to make swaps if there is a genuine problem between you and another poster, but why not embrace the holiday spirit to bury the hatchet?

I'll put this in emails tomorrow, but please try to have your gifts shipped by December 15th. If you think you'll need more time let me know.

by **!azzip** » Sat Nov 04, 2017 8:51 pm

I swear to fucking god if I get Vincent....

by **Worship** » Sat Nov 04, 2017 10:04 pm

by **The Great Hambino** » Sat Nov 04, 2017 10:09 pm

Vincent didn't sign up this year.

Way to go guys.

WE COULD HAVE HAD SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL

by **macho insecurity** » Sun Nov 05, 2017 11:59 am

I keep getting stiffed, oh well! Here's a gift for someone who makes fun of me.

Planning to send after dinner tonight. Emails should start going out around 7:30 CST.

by **Cutsman** » Mon Nov 06, 2017 7:40 pm

Hey, did you get my e mail? I never got a confirmation back or anything

by **antipasto** » Mon Nov 06, 2017 8:09 pm

Time 2 buy

by **The Great Hambino** » Mon Nov 06, 2017 8:48 pm

All matches have been sent. Again if you have any issues send me a message within the next 24 hours, otherwise I'll assume everyone is good with their match.

I would also encourage people who gave me their social media to temporarily make them viewable to everyone. It's hard to spy and learn about your SS recipient when their profile is private.

by **Shnoopy y VVoodstock** » Mon Nov 06, 2017 10:24 pm

So gat dang stoked for my match. Thank you thank you!!!

Also to my SS I will put more info... sorry I do not have any social media currently.

by **ImASinkingShip** » Tue Nov 07, 2017 12:23 pm

I'm so excited for this. My match likes a lot of cool stuff, so it's going to be a lot of fun finding things.

by **!azzip** » Tue Nov 07, 2017 12:30 pm

Thinkin up some ideas.....

by **creativexcover** » Tue Nov 07, 2017 12:35 pm

I've got a neat idea. Excited to send stuff out!
