Actually, I do, as an old Christmas present from years ago. I think we played it... no, we never actually did. It's been in the cupboard ever since we got it.
It seems the older you get, the less you want for Christmas. For instance, all I wanted this year was the collector’s edition of The Walking Dead and a gift card to Barnes and Noble.
Sunglasses
nice collared shirt
XKCD T-shirt
Hobbit calendar
Professor Farnesworth doll
tea
flashy ring
stationary
lucky cat figurine
fake pearl necklace
Macy's and Barne's and Noble gift cards
Movies: Sherlock Holmes, Braveheart, Big Lebowski, Pan's Labyrinth, Inception
And then I spent the entire day playing with everyone else's presents. I'm such a bad person. But I did finally get to see ParaNorman so it was all good.
My grandma got me the Good Eats 2 and Good Eats 3 cookbooks. Problem is, she got me Good Eats 3 last year. I needed Good Eats 1 and she got mixed up. So we'll be exchanging that.
Also, since my dad decided he didn't want to do Christmas shopping, my sister and I were basically allowed to pick our own gifts. So I just got Sonic Generations and Assassin's Creed (the first one, the only one in the series I still didn't have) on Amazon, and if it's still on sale for $100 when I become eligible for an upgrade on Friday, I'll be getting a Galaxy S III.
Oh, and tonight, I found out that my dad is one of those Monopoly players who are the reason most people refuse to play Monopoly.
He buys all the properties around the 'Go' space and builds a shedload of buildings on them so you're almost guaranteed to lose all your money there? 'cause that's what my Dad does.
The best properties to buy are the ones in between Free Parking and Go to Jail as those are the ones that people are both most likely to land on and rake in the most cash. And now I've given away my prime Monopoly strategy that has won me many games whenever I've had the patience to sit through a game of Monopoly.
The problem is that you were the only person playing the strip version. Everyone else was just playing regular Monopoly... and they were only 5 year olds. They'll be in therapy for the rest of their days. For shame.

I got an Android 4.0 and a calendar. I can only go on the Internet and play some games as long as my Wi-Fi connection is up. If only Telltale can import games like Tales of Monkey Island on the Android.

You don't need TTG to play games on an Android device:
ScummVM (the touchpad mode works wonderfully on small screens)
I got:
A set of mixing bowls
A spoon rest
Wii Lego Harry Potter 1-4
The Dark Knight Rises and No Country For Old Men Blue Rays
A Soundfly FM wireless transmitter and memory cards
Gift certificates for 3 massages
A candy plate- my friend does china painting and has her own kiln. Painted a cat in a Santa hat on the plate, and tried to make it look as much like my cat as possible. As I am a person without the skill to even make a stick figure, her talent amazes me.
The best present; one more Christmas with my dad. His health is so bad,I have thought the last five Christmases were his last, but he hung in there another year.
A couple of jumpers
Adidas deodorant & aftershave
Some DVDs (Tintin, Cop Out & A Fantastic Fear of Everything)
Some games (Football Manager 2013, Far Cry 3, Penny Arcade trilogy, KotoR 2 & Wipeout HD with Fury)
£30
A Terry's Chocolate Orange
A coat (which I've not actually got as it hasn't arrived yet)
Got new headphones, a webcam, sodastream, a lot of clothing items, sodastream pop maker(making the soda, like you can buy Cola, Root Beer, etc), gift sets, new
shoes & slippers, and probably other stuff I'm forgetting
I got a book with beautiful aerial pictures of a cloudless Amsterdam;
A 2013 Dilbert block calender;
and a bluray player. Woot. I'll be able to watch my Nuka Break season 1 and 2 blurays when they're released.

Then you do not understand the truth of winning at Monopoly, young disciple.

I beat there pants off....

The Humble Bundles of course aren't available anymore, but the games still are. I've also wasted a lot of time on the CrossMe games.
