I'd rather have a game with lots of cute anime girls, personally.

Because I don't believe there is a single racing game out there with the Buick LeSabre as a selectable vehicle... always a bunch of damn sports cars...

Apparently cars appeal to most males. I'm not that kind of person. I know nothing about sports or cars. I think there are more important things than watching people who can't read, yet make millions of dollars, on television.
 
I'd much rather have a car that's big, roomy, and comfortable as opposed to one that's fast and flashy.
 
Eh... I don't really care about cars one way or the other. All I know is that Lamborghinis look cool.
I probably care about them even less than you. lol

I like the Porsche that was in the New Moon movie xD.
 
Sports cars don't even look all that attractive to me, not to mention the cramped, uncomfortable interiors.

I like my cars with big chrome bumpers, four doors, plush seats, and hood ornaments :P Also fake wood if it's a station wagon.
 
We need to change the topic XD. I have nothing to say.
I like those sort of cars too.
 
Okay, last car post: What I don't like is how cars look "angry" from the front nowadays, with the angled headlights and the huge grille openings.

New topic... Um... have you started Christmas shopping yet? I've bought one Christmas gift so far, for my brother, as I needed to buy it online and have it shipped here before I left college for the break.

LMAO.

No, I haven't started shopping yet. I don't even know what to get people/what I want.
 
Um...me no do Christmas. Cause I refuse to believe Jesus' birthday is that day, BUT ANYWAY

Every time Christmas comes along, I always wonder do people give gifts to each other? Is it because it's a happy time of the year or something?

I also refuse to think Jesus' birthday is that day. But I still have to go to church lol. So, I just think it's a happy, festive time of the year, and after all, I need a break from life, so I celebrate Christmas.

I'm not sure what my parents want, but for the past few years, I've gone with the whole "When in doubt, just get them a gift card to Wal-Mart" approach.

I do it pretty much because I'm roped into it by the family. Where I come from it's actually a pretty miserable time of the year, with snow, slick highways, increased braking distances, increased reaction times, stupid drivers who don't take into account the previous three factors, and traffic jams from accidents caused by the above factors. Not to mention less sunlight during the day, below freezing temperatures, crowded malls, and being snowed in a Cleveland, Ohio Greyhound bus station on the way back home a couple years ago.

It's more of a guilt trip game my parents try to pull... if I get gifts from someone and don't get them something in return, suddenly I'm the villain. I would LOVE not to have to deal with the whole gift thing on December 25 and just sleep in instead of being rudely awakened at some absurdly early hour to open a few token gifts.

And all the good restaurants are closed that day:/

Of course it's not actually his birthday. (Well, I suppose it's possible.) Should we just not celebrate it just because we don't know exactly what day it falls on though? I think it's better that we just picked a day to celebrate, whether it's accurate or not.

That makes sense to me.
Anyways, I can never sleep on Christmas Eve, so this Christmas I am going to probably play my DS all night until I get tired xD
 
Just saying. We'll find out soon enough I hope.

LeSabre, you made me lol at "Suddenly I'm the villain" because it sounded like this:

Once upon a time in Texas my friends were celebrating Christmas. They invited.

I said no.

They said just come or the presents and food.

I said ok.

I came, and I got a new DS Game, and a few other things (the crappy kind, but I wasn't in the mood. I believe it was some movie game.)

He asked me what I got him.

I told I got him nothing.

That is the day I lost 7 friends. Which is still making me question if they were my friends.
 
I've made it perfectly clear to my friends that I am a poor college student, so they don't expect presents from me anyway... just my company, however much that may or may not be worth.

With family however, I always get some sort of gift from relatives. What my parents usually do is pick out some gift, claim it's from "me" and charge me for it. Which I don't mind, since as I've said before I suck at picking out gifts for others and if left to my own devices would likely either get people gift cards or something cheap from Advance Auto Parts or AutoZone like spark plugs or motor oil xD

What I HATE are the cheesy "thank you" cards that I'm forced to send everyone after the fact. So much so that I've come up with a formal business letter format to send to relatives instead. I still have to thank them but at least with these letters it looks like it's coming from a professional in middle management instead of a six-year-old.

I take it that the pre-set messages are in Comic Sans then.

Are some fonts just n00bier than others?

Some of them just don't look as polished as others.

BTW, my form letters use either Times New Roman or Tahoma, whatever is currently set as my MS Word default.

It wouldn't surprise me in the least bit if the Christmas thank you cards chosen by my parents used Comic Sans, though:/
