>>78453048
I just noticed that Martian Manhunter's Champagne glass is filled with Chocos.
Joyeux Noel from 3P5RFH9G03V0J (. Ca)!
Hope everyone had a good Christmas, I'm sorry I wasn't able to fit another movie stream in before the big day.
However I did get some christmas canuck funbucks yesterday and I got my paycheck before our break instead of after, so I'll look through the canadian wishlists and gift out a few additional things in the near future. Prime trial ran out so it'll be a little slower to arrive though
>>78455011

Uh oh, I think Mr. Scorpio is having a stroke, Hank call emergency services.
>>78455382
Gotta spend those loonies and toonies, eh?
>>78455862
You okay?
>>78455862
I'm sorry, Hank. I really wanted to get one of your puzzles, and I thought I had at least a few letters, but I guess I'm just not good at these.
>>78456311
Hey Elusive, going through the last thread and saw your response. The seller got back to me today while I was at work with the following:
"I'm sorry about that! I'm seeing on UPS's tracking site, that the item was delivered to the local post office on the 22nd, but when I check the tracking against USPS's site, there doesn't seem to be any information available. Have you or your friend tried contacting the post office yet, to see if they still have your package for some reason? If you already have, and they say they don't have it, let us know, and we will do our best to try and help you investigate this further."
So, let them know Soberanon already went to see if it was there, it wasn't, and let's see what happens from there. If nothing, I'll just file a claim and go from there. It sucks it's coming to this, but shit happens and it doesn't help losing your mind over it.
I never saw posts in these threads but i hope anons got my gifts
Check out what I got /co/
>>78458186
I'm surprised you got a actual nice response. Amazon has every message that the 3rd party sellers send and your responses as well. With the seller being nice and helpful they have 3 days to respond, if they just flat out say they can't help or they miss that 3 day window you can toss out the claim which will just get the money back. But will warn you there's a limit of 50 A-Z claims allowed per Amazon account. Then you just can't make any more claims.
can't find a shelf thread so asking here, I got a 25$ amazon gift card. any good /co/ deals I should check out?
>>78458331
What do you like anon?
>>78458186
soberanon here and still no package or anything
on my wishlist, it says 3 amazing anons purchased things for me
I've only received one gift
DVD of Sound of the Sky (Sora no Woto)
it could just be part of post-detoxed paranoia but what if my postal office is just fucking with me for funsies?
my cousin supposedly ordered me a figure three weeks ago because he's Jewish (and Chanukah) and it never got here too.
wtf
>>78458259
Well shoot I kinda want that.
>>78458304
what does a limit of A-Z mean? 26 claims per year? thats a ridiculous number of loss packages, if it is per one person
>>78458259
That's pretty neat.I still haven't seen the movie
>>78458601
That's part of Amazon's slogan, everything you need from A to Z. It's even in their logo with the little arrow that almost makes a smile.
It also tried to enforce that you're covered from A-Z if there's ever an issue with your order.
>>78458566
Get it, legos are the coolest
>>78458628
It's a pretty good movie. It kinda feels like a Charlie Chaplin movie with a robot.
>>78455382
Did the Sky Doll get there? Been out of threads for the holiday and shit
Also nearly got tornadoed tonight
>>78458439
Man, I could never deal with losing that much shit. Do you live in an apartment or a house? I know living in an apartment they just drop my shit at my door and I have to hope for the best when I get home. So far I've been lucky.
>>78458628
For shame!
>>78458709
I still use Legos are work for projects. It's a lot of fun. I have a shitload of Legos (well, it was a shitload once) from the 90s I really need to get rid of one day. Use the tub their in for something else.
>>78458331
Get Pyongyang by Guy Delisle, there's a storytime of it up right now and it's well worth it.
>>78458973
House, in a neighborhood with 0 crime, or at least what I've found out through my grandma's gossip with her gals. very safe hood, somewhat affluent, never had trouble receiving packages before
just this holiday season
bad luck
like every single day, our dinner gets delivered to our house, consistently, because we order from Blue Apron.
I haven't seen that Miraculous Ladybug show yet, but isn't the catboy's power badluck? Like opposite Longshot?
I think I have his power too
>>78458973
>>78458709
Yeah, yeah, I know. I'll watch it eventually.
Probably.
>>78458892
It arrived last week, yes!I had to apologize to you last thread, my secret santa actually also sent me a copy of it. Thought I had kept my wishlists separate but I guess there was a bit of overlap. I got your copy first though
Got back from seeing Krampus.
Pretty goodbut the ending could have hit harder
>>78459558
You free?
I'll stream it when you are
>>78458892
Also christ, somehow I missed the tornado thing. hopefully you're okay
>>78458892
I don't know how people do that. Live in areas with tornadoes. I'd rather live in gang infested rat traps than take my chances there.
How do you do it?
Totally forgot to make my include my address. Hope this isn't too late!

>>78463385
It's really out of season and they're not super common here. But this one got ducking close and now it's still storming and so I'm up with the dog who has legit storm PTSD and is a ball of shakes, poor thing
Fuck it Hi. KH5WB08TYKXR
>>78465726
On dec 4 you were gifted Wonder Woman by George Perez Omnibus did you get that yet? I remember you mentioning already having gotten it from a friend and that you'd return the one the anon bought so he could get his money back.
Okay, so I just got an email there is an issue with my order for Samuel W. Looks like the seller is flaking on his end, not responding to Amazon like he should. So I've officially requested a cancellation of the order. If that doesn't work, then I have to file a complaint.
Joy.
This season is not ending up as festive as I hoped it would be. This is what I get for buying OOP books.
>>78466155
Oh man I hope things can get sorted out.
>>78466502
As do I. I don't remember the code I bought it for though.
>>78466681
You try looking for him in the archives?
>>78466681
Was it http://desustorage.org/co/thread/78289244/#78289258 or http://desustorage.org/co/thread/78099864/#78105405 ?
>>78460184
That fantomas looks so fucking cool, english release when?
>>78466791
Yup, it was 3OD5CTKK3FCLD.
Thanks for the help there. Got caught up in something else. Hate this time of morning.
Well, my Christmas cheer came to an abrupt end yesterday. Poor family dog got really sick, so we took her to a vet and ultimately we had to put her to sleep. She was almost 17, so she had almost full life, but it still really sucks.
Hope everyone else had a better season.
>>78467015
No problem.
>>78461896
Just woke up and realized the significance of the kids talking about Coke's idealization of Santa's image.
That's pretty smartconsidering how heavily it's implies Krampus is Santa
>>78467075
Oh I'm so sorry to hear that.
My brother and I lost our beloved pet bird 3 years ago and bird vets around here for birds are so expensive we just had to watch it die.
Hope you feel better/
>>78467075
My condolences, going to hug my dog nowour family dog has a tumor nearing the size of a golfball on her belly, we've already had her operated two years ago and every tumor was thought to be removed. She seems to be fine now though, even with the tumor she's still the happy playful pupper.
Umm.. so /co/ gives Christmas gifts? I hope I'm not too late to throw my tiny lil wishlist into the ring. And I hope you all had a great holidays!
1KY04272SGYMH .co.ukAnon
>>78467247
go in peace, pupper
>>78467188
>>78467247
Thank you guys. I really appreciate it. I'll be okay, but it's just one of those things I don't know how to process. Right now I'm just looking to the Christmas cheer of others to keep on the bright side.
>>78467075
Sorry man, it's never easy losing a pet. I was crushed when I put my cat to sleep 2 years ago. I hadn't cried like that since my father died, or at all since. It'll take time but you'll make it through.
>>78467075
Sorry to hear that man, I had to say goodbye to my own dog back in October.
Alright, how about we liven things up?
Gonna be doing Wall-E on my channel in a bit, mainly because of what was said last night.
My Christmas has been so hectic I completely forgot about my /co/mrades. 273V1EH7WQJ2F (co.uk). Don't have much to spend but willing to do someone with a wish under 20US, so hmu if you haven't been gifted yet.
>>78467337
Hm. Same shit happened to me. The 2nd time it burst while she was sleeping with me. Took her to the vet and removed some more that day. A year later, 2 months ago, she died of a tumor bursting in her lung. I'd see her at the moms house almost every night after work and hype her up before leaving and crying on the car ride home, not 2 weeks before she passed.
When it happens anon, you'll see it coming.
>>78467454
I haven't been gifted yet anon - >>78467273
I'll give your list a little looksee now too
>>78467465
I don't have much money atm so I could only get you the one star wars book. But hope you enjoy it
>>78467453
Yes please, about to storytime to help liven things up too.
The Flash Gordon Holiday Special begins now!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kS7gSuseE0s
>>78467871
>>78467871
>Dynamite Flash Gordon
Well...at least your heart is in the right place.
>>78467875
>>78467879
Oh.. that bad? Haven't ready any of the Dynamite Flash Gordon stuff I just downloaded this because of the fact it was a holiday special.
>>78467899
The holiday special is pretty fun.
But the main Jeff Parker series is just...so un-Flash. Pays maybe a bit too much homage to the ovie and tries to reinvent the wheel in a few places.
The best thing about the main series was Doc Shaner...the best living artist they could have picked.
>>78467899
>>78467922
>>78467916
Huh okay, I liked his Agents of Atlas stuff.
>>78467960
>>78467960
Yeah, and as a general sci-fi comic Parker's Flash isn't bad, but it's not really a great Flash Gordon affair.
Agents of Atlas was pretty good
>>78467978
>>78468001
>>78468016
>>78468029
So, Wall-E is set to start at 1 PM.
Have some errands, will link when its a go

The end.
So we're still 100% gifted right?
Alright, starting Wall-E for kicks in 10 minutes.
>>78468206
Damn that was also why I was gonna do it.
>>78466890
Would english speakers even know who the fuck fantomas is?
>>78470121
Of course.
Venture Bros. and it's also in the "see also" section of the Phantom of the Opera wiki article.
>>78470116
Alright one minute to go
http://vaughnlive.tv/designateddave
>>78465948
No I never got it unfortunately :(
>>78470735
That sucks
>>78470735
Well packages usually take a while longer around December.
>>78472654
OK, I'll just be patient.
Alright, since tonight's feature is Little Shop of Horrors, how about we do another pseudo-musical that Rick Moranis was in?
Streets of Fire, starting in 12 minutes. Link above.
>>78469841
Nice to still have you with us Scribs, got any creations that would go well with new year's eve?
Shitty Christmas. They got into the house of my grandma and took her savings.
She wasn't in the house, but she doesn't have any money till next year and she didn't manage to get food for new years.
>>78474399
Damn, I hope she's getting the help and support she needs.
>>78475015
Yeah, she's in our house now. We're tough economically as well but we'll be fine.
>>78475189
What's your list? Who knows a late Christmas miracle might happen.
>>78475280
I don't have a list. I don't know the shipping rates as well due for being in Greece.
One last try?
PVW1N8DHV7WA
Streets of Fire is done and we've still got a lot of time.
So to fill that in we're going with another Walter Hill Classic - Last Man Standing.
Will start as soon as it finishes downloading, which is soon.
>>78475361
Get a .de or .it Amazon account, the shipping to you would be fairly mild compared to .com especially
>>78475403
You can try every thread, since we hit 100% you could consider us as being in a bonus round mode.
>>78475486
I made a .co.uk list.
Is this number good? 259EAEN9NTGKX
(I have no idea if I done this correctly)
Posting here because I know some regulars are lurking: sorry about the lack of evening storytimes the past few days, there was tiredness and then yesterday's shitstorm and today being ill. Plan on trying to run more Bolts tomorrow night.
>>78475979
I figured you were gonna be off until after the holidays to be honest
>>78475979
Just be well man. Rest and drink warm beverages. Noone should be ill days like this.
>>78476019
I meant to run MOON NAZIS but the day ran so long, etc.
Almost got the One Million omni at the bookstore, then pondered the shelf space>
>>78476098
My awesome evening so far is drinking Ensure and not getting sick again
>>78476258
That sucks then.
And yeah. My friend is trying to get together a donation thing for this library in the midwest so I hopefully will get new shelf space soon.
Hope that it gets better. Little shop in an hour
>>78476258
Hope you get well soon enough JSAnon.
Come to the stream if you want. Now we have "Last Man Standing". First time watching it and it's pretty good.
Hey, all.
What did I miss? Anything good?
>>78477346
About to start Little Shop in 13 minutes.
>>78477346
Missed No-Fucks-Bruce-Willis
Alright, time for the main event.
Horror Musical Night #1
Little Shop of Horrors (The Director's Cut)
Starting at 8 PM sharp
I'm baaAAAaack...
Christmas was hectic, as I knew it would be. Spending it away from home was weird, but spending it with family was amazing. My older brother loved the Rescue Rangers comic I gave him, the Tiny Titans and Lil Gotham trades I gave my future niece-in-law less so (she seemed confused by the apparent lack of Batman in Lil Gotham). /co/-related gifts I got included League of Regrettable Superheroes, Song of Spider-Man and the second Prince Vailant trade from Fantagraphics.
The table presents went much as expected: Mum's gifts were well-recieved, mine were politely accepted (except for my dad's and future sister-in-law's, as I'd actually gotten them cool stuff - a DVD of a now-dead stand-up's TV sketch show, and fragrant soaps from a local gift shop, respectively). The table present my mum got me was a Lego Star Wars sticker book.I'd gotten the exact same thing last year as an actual present.I still have no idea why table presents are a thing, or why I had to buy any these past two years. I'm not even sure my future in-laws do them every year.
>>78458642
Hey I'm the NC-Bro you gifted. I'm gonna post some pics later, but I can't thank you enough, that was essentially my only gift this year. You're awesome. Thanks /co/ for all the jolly threads.
>>78475526
can't blame an anon for trying
I hope Liren and Nathaniel enjoyed there books. I will say, last year was better at having people come in a show off the great gifts they got from other /co/mrads. Didn't see that as much as I'd had liked this year considering how many people who were gifted.
Those 2 are the last of my Amazon orders, the rest are 3rd party purchases. 2 should be there soon (KS and Fourze) and one should be canceled soon (Samuel).
>>78477357
Why did I miss it?! I tried to get up. I really did.
>>78475526
>>78479657
Christmas is not always about the day, it's about the season.
Okay, I just want an excuse to put my list up again. Even though I'm usually shameless.
36N04QFZXGDAK
Thread's getting dangerously far down...
https://youtu.be/j545SVPYnJs
Oh god wut.
Bump and stuff
how long can we keep this festive cheer up?
>>78485627
I think it's best if we wind it down, move onto the new year.
>>78478834
Glad you like it, merry Christmas and happy new year.
>>78485656
Yea plan is to only have the threads go through the 31st. Just giving people time to post their gifts as they come in.
>>78485627
>>78485656
>>78486349
B-But Christmastime goes on through Little Christmas on the Epiphany...
>>78486473
But when these threads end it gives us something to look forward to next year.
>>78480081
I keep meaning to take a photo of my Bandette trade with my laptop's shitty webcam, honest...
>>78486473
Just follow Ebenezer Scrooge's example: keep Christmas in your heart the whole year round.
Gonna be doing a Home Alone Double Feature starting at 10.
Because why hasn't anyone done those yet? Haha.
>>78480081
You frees at anytime before six pm est? I could run it for you.
>>78487556
Not for the next few days sadly. I'm gonna be busy until Wednesday at least.
No worries, I was more wanting to just chill and check out the movie with like minded people. Hope to catch that Phantom one most of all. Only learned about it because of you and now I want to own it.
>>78487752
Cool, that's new years eve then.
Hope you can catch that too.
If it weren't for you guys all I would have gotten for Christmas/my birthday would have been a Magic deck and two boosters. Thanks guys.
Sup guys
ausfag here. lost my virginity today, so i'm in a real good place right now. 273V1EH7WQJ2F (co.uk) haven't been gifted yet. How are you guys?
>>78488573
Pretty good. Just getting a stream schedule up.
Home Alone 1 and 2 starts in an hour.
Alright, first up

Audio is fixed
Story continuing from here >>78474399
Police came again today, tried to find fingerprints. My god they're useless.
>Oh, if you touched anything AT ALL, even months ago, we won't be able to find good prints. If their hands were really moist or dry we won't be able to find anything again.
Are police just so useless in general in every country?
Thanks, Minifig, arrived a lot earlier it seems.^^
>>78489968
forgot pic
Hey is the coordinators email
[email protected]
I havent received anything or any replies by her at all in a good 2 weeks when asking about any updates
>>78490679
Looks like you got grinched, I'm sorry anon.
>>78490856
fuck figured as much, just dissapointed this happend again on this board for me.
>>78490679
Strange, she did respond to a message I sent a couple of weeks ago. I never heard back from the guy I was assigned to though.
Alright
Home Alone 2: Home Aloner
starts right now
>>78491428
she responded up to the 14th where I was asked if I recived my gift yet. all my replies were never answered
>>78490679
There was a secret santa here as well, similar to the one on Toy?
How'd I missed that. I think I would have done that.
I got The Black Mirror and The Man Who Laughs for Christmas, I've heard good things about Man Who Laughs, but I've never heard of Black Mirror, is it good?
>>78488573
Well, good for you. I'm just finishing a visit from some friends of the family. It's been lovely... apart from them all pretending they're fully informed on certain political and social issues.
>>78489968
>>78490147
Awesome! I was told it wouldn't arrive until early January, so I'm glad we've both had a nice surprise!I'd prefer you put a black box over my real name; sorry, but I'm kinda paranoid about being doxxed by assholes.
>>78491599
Someone from /toy/ unaware of the /co/ style of Secret Santa threads tried to make that happen, the thread only got a few posts because it's not how /co/ does it.
It also looks like their way of doing things is very prone to grinching.
>>78491651
Yes, one of the only good Batman stories Synder ever wrote.
>>78492947
Sucks about the grinching but some of the packages put together over at /toy/ were pretty nicely put together.
>>78493194
Fantastic.
>>78493487
Yeah when they do work they're very nice.
>>78492947
Yeah I hugely lucked out with both of my secret santa pools but I'm not certain if I'll be doing it again next year
Alright, streaming today almost killed my laptop so looking into alternatives for Mac so we don't miss a beat
>>78494901
As I said in the stream. Just allow it to breath. If you use your laptop a lot, consider buying cooling fans for it.
>>78495289
Alright. just looking into alternatives
Hey guys, Kamandi anon here. My previously awesome girlfriend and I have split at her behest, and I'm feeling supremely down, considering this was the woman I was hoping to spend the rest of my life with and I put my education on hold for to help support her. I just wanted to thank you guys for always being a source of camaraderie every year, and hopefully things will start looking up soon.
>>78494139
If the shipping werent' probably horrifying I'd say you could pass on that extra Sky Doll to me, but do send it on to someone else who would enjoy it :D
thanks for the well-wishes, there's less illness today
>>78497568
Where about? If you don't mind it being in French I might be able to manage it
>>78494901
Did you get my mystery box?
>>78498184
I'm in the US, and it would be a good chance to practice my super-rusty reading French
>>78498448
Wouldn't be too bad, I'm in Canada. I probably wouldn't be able to send it out until the new year though. Send me a note.
Actually I wonder if that guy I sent my copy of The Incal to received it. Never heard anything back from him.
5 Minutes to Independence Day
Just for kicks
http://vaughnlive.tv/designateddave
>>78498366
Haha, I did. Can't believe it, so glad. Thanks a bunch.
Mine get there yet?
>>78498601
It sounded neat. Glad you like it.
Not yet.
>>78498597
Humm, no email title option, alright[email protected]
>>78498645
I've been planning on reading it for a while.
Partly because I love how it's partly an homage on newspaper comics.
With Sunday Strip double sized spreads too.
>>78498597
Oh, if it's not clear, I'm the person who sent the one to you from amazon.ca
what's the best way to send a note? :)
>>78498601
we should be more Bolts tonight, Dave
>>78498672
I'll be sure to check in if my connection is more stable haha.
>>78498601
And we are LIVE
>>78498701
(this may be a little optimistic, as my instinct right now is to get in bed and not get out; 80 degrees to 35 is an unpleasant weather shock)
>>78498672
Put it up here >>78498656
2/4 gifts arrived
4/4 given no one posted that they got them
Space Riders and Kino no Tabi still not here :(
>>78499933
It's ok anon, 9/11 of my gifts have been delivered but only 5 have popped up saying thanks.
I actually just had to contact Amazon about one of the undelivered gifts as it was meant to be delivered on the 21st but hasn't had any tracking since it was originally scanned on the 17th.
I got to talk to "Larry" who asked me some rather odd questions and even broke Amazon's policies by providing me with account information on the chat.
But now Deion is getting a replacement sent for his book about learning every day lessons from horses.
Alright, time for the main feature:

For what it's worth, I've been where you've been. It's a really shitty place to be, but there will always be people who care about you, and I don't just mean here on these threads.

I gave three, but only one guy said he got it. I posted a pic of what I got from SDU as well.

So far so good on the Horror Musicals.
Minor hiccups, but nothing too bad
To G.G. in Cornetu, your present should get there next Tuesday. Sorry for the delay, just wanted to give you a status update.

Thanks, man. I legitimately appreciate it.
Also, sorry I couldn't make it to the movietime guys, had something else come up after work.
I will not let Christmas die
Soberanon, just putting it out there the company I ordered your book from gave me a full refund, Maybe you'll get lucky and when the holiday dies down the post office will find your book and deliver it.
Also, my small purchase for myself came in today. The Mighty collection from Dark Horse. Brand new for a whopping 2 cents.
Good morning Secret Santa /co/mrades, how's everyone doing?
