Merry Christmas again /co/.
Good morning anons!
Do you guys have any special tradition for this time of the year? I always watchHigh School Musicalon the first day of the year. And every cartoon movie I find on TV.
I was looking through my files looking for things I had saved from last christmas, and found this. I didn't save you wrote it which sucks. Hopefully whoever wrote it is around this year.
Again, I am not the person who wrote this.

Here's my wishlist 1UBA43GL1TQQV (co.uk)
And since I just got a massive tax return and only spent half of it on comics yesterday, I just gifted these two UK accounts:
YLO7PRZQ8TYU
3S2NG5HSGTMEL
>>77921878
Do you have the Larfleeze one from few years back?
>>77922044
You're a gent anon
>>77922044
Sorry, don't have that one
>>77922044
You're a gentleman and a scholar, anon! Thank you, and Merry Christmas
>>77921729
Holy crap, thanks to whoever it was that giftedC9GMXSMBZ145, I love you so much anon <3
Thanks and Merry Xmas!
>>77922119
Shame, I only have the picture that accompanied it.
>>77921729
Thanks for making the new thread Anonimo, I was away all morning and have to skip out again later today to buy a christmas tree.
Don't really have cash, but I figure I should storytime for you guys if you'd like me to. This is probably one of my favorite Christmas themed stories. This is from Captain Marvel vol.4 (Genis happens to be my favorite Cap Marvel iteration.) Hope you guys enjoy.

Just letting the anon know that I'm not going to be home for a few days, so if amazon says I should have my package by now, I'm not ungrateful, I just don't know yet.
>>77922475
>>77922488
That about wraps it up, folks. Thanks for tuning in if you did. Marry Christmas and Happy Holidays.
There was a whole lot more X-Mas stuff in this digest then I expected
>Wishlist Threads
>>77922558
Hah
>>77922562
Haha, I'm just glad that two anons fell within my rather meager price range
I want that coat.
I need it.
>>77921878
Oh wow, someone actually saved that? I'm pretty sure that was my handiwork, as I distinctly remember chuckling to myself when writing the line about Ted.
Speaking of last year, has anyone seen Christmas Robin around recently?
Alright, last one for right now - there's two more winter stories in this thing, but let's save those for later.
>>77922623
Haha!
I knew it was you who wrote that.
>>77922444
I think I'll go either tomorrow or the sunday to play some card games, so you won't have to wait to much.
Everyone loves Jughead.
Which Hush comic is it I've heard so much about? Is it just Batman: Hush?(Jeph Loeb/Jim Lee)
>>77922720
Yeah, that's pretty much the one you're talking about.
Opinion of it has waned here, I hear that later Hush comics are better or so.
>>77922737
Well alright then. It seemed like one of the must-read titles, so I was just curious.
Morning folks! Here's my code once more. Merry Christmas to one and all! 297MIGOM4JLT0

Hush is meh, but Heart of Hush is top tier. The first is required reading for the second.
morning everybody, it's fffffffrrrrrrrriiiiiiiddddaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyy~ I think. I still feel the nyquil in my system.

It's pretty nice, but the internal meter is all kinds of fucked up which makes it sound odd in places.
7/10, see me after class.
Glad to see these threads up again, might as well story time one of my favorite Christmas comicsand drop this off while I'm here 1E3AR0WCCFIRG

Oh screw it, let's finish this Jughead digest up
Jughead and the Gang get Cabin Fever in this one
And that's the last one that I can honestly say is "winter related".
I'll try and find some more if ya'll liked it for a later date

Hey friends, I do the crossword at my campus newspaper and was thinking of doing a /co/-themed one to decide who I'm gifting. However, I can probably only gift a Canadian because our dollar is doing so terribly. Would there still be any interest?
Heyo, here's a Christmas-themed story for you
I need some ideas for my wishlist
>>77923864
Sure.
All I want for christmas is porn of Johnny Test's mom, mostly because I cant seem to find any decent ones
>>77924034
I just read through other anons lists for inspiration

Die Hard and Die Harder, every year on Christmas
What's up, merry people? Jump for joy because Genos brought home some CHRISTMAS COLONEL!

I remember that! It was and still is excellent.
Good morning Christmas folks! Here's a website that got a chuckle from me http://cockburnremovals.com.au/

This is the type of Joker I love.
>>77922017
Oh hey, Italy friend? I'm interested in getting some books from there but ordering individually from amazon.it=shipping hell. But if I could work something out with someone there, I'd be happy to hit your wishlist/send money/whatever. I'll be hanging in these threads.
Time to Frank.
1ARISLMZZ8M7Y can be taken off the ungifrted list. I also tried to get something for 252M5UHDA89FT but there was no address.so fix that shit!
>>77925091
I love the themed Punisher stuff like the Back-to-School Special
>>77925109
Back to School was great. I still love his library brawl.
Sending out some cheer, we can take
S15SRE7JELXX
1W60M06SAH6HB
39RA2WBPUC8W1
off the list.
S15SRE7JELXX, good luck on getting the trade of Rucka's Punisher #2, I've been waiting on backorder with that thing for almost two years now. C7ZN7GKHIZWX, 252M5UHDA89FT, 2MOV0MGY5304H wanted to send to you originally, but you had no shipping addresses.
Zounds
By the way...214YKS89EZX8Z has been served some justice.

Geez, each snowman had one?
>ship ss package from alberta to ontario
>gets sent straight east to the destinations nearest big city, driven to the final location
>ship ss package from alberta to ohio
>gets sent to BC, down to San Francisco, all the way back across the country to Ohio
The fuck? I know they rely on mailing hubs and shit but surely there's a more streamlined location to amass stuff to that doesn't involve sending mail in the completely wrong direction? No wonder shipping is so ludicrously expensive when it crosses the border.
>>77925383
Frank is thorough.
41XVB5DB3C2U can be taken off the ungifted list as well!I'm using my friend's prime account to send stuff, so I'm not adding the notes so you don't get something with his name on it. Just know it was sent from me with love.
Whelp
>>77925428
He's a business professional.
How do you guys choose which anons you're gifting?
It's always nice when Frank drops by for the holidays.
>>77925479
Usually I just pick random lists off the pastebin and if I see something cool in the list I gift it to them, usually something I myself have enjoyed in the past and want to share with another anon
>>77925482
I agree, thanks for the storytime
Later tonight I'm gonna storytime a couple classic Claremont Uncanny issues set at Christmas
>>77925523
This is my way of thinking too. But I did get some anon "The Baby Jesus Buttplug" from sheer ridiculousness of the title.
>>77925563
I look forward to muties.
>>77925479
Just now I randomly grabbed some lists from the ungifted pastebin and took a gander. A couple things caught my eye, so I picked them. I'll look sometimes when people post theirs in the thread too. Even if they've been gifted, it's nice to know they're sticking around and spreading the cheer with us.
>>77925482
Thanks for that KS, and to all the other storytimers. As always, this scrib's dedicated to you guys.
2DLBOJDESN3C8
The thread is missing the word Christmas from the OP, so I got pretty lost for a while there.
>>77922044
3S2NG5HSGTMEL here, thank you <3
>>77925423
Shipping shit is crazy. It's just generally cheaper to route shipments to where the bulk is sent and processing centers exist and then distribute from there. In our heads that's a straight line to the destination, but in reality it's a weird ass blob.
>>77925586
Thank you for reminding me to put fetish gear on my list storyteller friend
>Amazon.de just raised the price on a bunch of items that were on my wishlist
I know it's close to the holidays and all but jumping the price up from 30 to 70 is ridiculous.
>>77925479
Look at random lists, see if they have something on there for a good price, and usually grab them something I enjoy too.
Merry Christmas /co/
Gonna get something to eat.

>>77925847
That sucks. I bought myself something pricey I'd been wanting because .com dropped it by 20% right after Thanksgiving.
Happy Friday, /co/!
What are you up to today?Obligatory List Post : 2CPU26IWTP7FE
Still sick, but feel a bit better at least.
How's everyone else's Friday going?

Anyone is welcome to message me on AIM if they just wanna talk about whatever (warning on talking about comics, I may not shut up if you choose that.)

>>77926025
>AIM
People still use that?!
>>77926025
Thanks, but personally, it's just something I gotta get over. I've seen friends today, I've vented with them, I've hugged them, but even though I've got a boyfriend, I always feel kind of incomplete. He's aromantic so I may as well have none, and I always feel so unloveable.
>>77926055
Flashingback to 2006
>>77926055
I spent years using AIM and now I forget it exists.i don't even use my aol email addy unless for bullshit signups.
>>77926055
I find it's invaluable to chat with people I don't want to add to Facebook or other services, which I tend to just use with family.
>>77926061
At first I thought your post said he was "aromatic,
and I thought "what's the problem if he smells good all the time?"
>>77926055
I have my ICQ number...somewhere...
>>77926061
>Has friends to vent to and a bf
>Complains about being lonely.
>>77926107
I thought the exact same thing
>>77926108
>ICQ
Oh mylanta
>>77926107
>tfw no smelly bf
>>77926108
>>77926135
On occasion I hear from ICQ people ever since the networks became compatible.
>>77926135
Those little flower icons, you know?
I also fondly remember Usenet before it got routed through Google. It was full of kooks and shitposting, but even those were of a higher quality than you get now in comment sections.
>>77926190
Never tried Usenet, but I remember ICQ well.
>>77926061
>dating an aromantic
>complains about not having romance
entirely your fault, grow a fucking spine you little beta
You guys should read about the chat messaging software wars. Micorsoft worked really hard to get MSN messenger to be a top product and they decided the best way to do that would be interop so you could use AOL's service with their software. What followed is a war of them going back and forth reverse engineering AOL's software.
Oh andFKVFTCKNPLCE
i feel too bad to post my list cause i don't really want any of the /co/ stuff
>>77926451
Haha, that's always a thing.
I gifted a DVD last year.
>>77926451
There are people who have been gifted sex toys, I doubt you're going to get much grief for not sticking to the theme
>>77926394
Whoa now, this is no place for that, but it's no place for the other thing either. We're here to spread cheer! Not bad feelings.
>>77926451
You can still post it. You'll more likely to get a /co/ related item, but you might get one that's not. I gifted someone Cabin in the Woods bluray a year or two ago, so it's not always /co/ related.
>>77925926
I'm just chilling, watching Christmas videos on YouTube. Anyone got any recommendations?
I fucking love you guys! I've been feeling down lately because I have a ton of work to do and I just got a knock on my door with two comics!
