Those are for his dog to chew.

And if he doesn't have a dog, then he'll just have to go and buy some more nail clippers.

I have no idea what to get my dad. Got my mom a pen that is also a little massager since she is a teacher and writes alot, got sister a usb thumbdrive since she just got a new laptop, and for my brother a vacuum for his truck that plugs into the cigarette lighter. But can't figure out anything for my dad for the life of me.

How about movies? I get my dad DVD's because he likes movies.

evil intentions · « **Reply #603 on:** December 22, 2003, 06:04:32 AM »

I get my dad video games. Yes video games. He still hasn't lost his love for them. I admire him for that.

Infernal Monkey · « **Reply #604 on:** December 22, 2003, 11:12:56 AM »

My Dad (and Mum) lost their interest for video games right after they introduced and got me hooked on them via their Atari 2600.

I think I used to fear my Dad's '1337' Space Invader skills or something. I'd always be dying right off (with that comical "Buuuurrr" noise that spewed from the TV when you die) and Dad would be playing it for agggeeesss. Crazy.

Man, you should see those Chicken Rotisseries (A chicken cooker, roaster thingy

) run out the door at Big W. I went to the one in Chullora to get one for mum, there is one left but it's all mangled and wrecked. I think people were fighting over it.
So I head off all the way to the Big W in Campsie, and thank god, there are stacks of them there. I leave one in a secret place and head to the games to play Mario Kart and diss Xbox.
I come back.
All Gone.
Even the secretly stashed one. In 10 minutes, all gone.
Me and my sis look around, and in the next aisle where the vacuum cleaners (!) are, we find two. YAY! We check inside that it's not wrecked, but the manual is missing. We reach for the second one, but a guy just runs in and grabs it and kisses it and runs off.
oooookaaaaay

Oh well, we have one at least

Dad is gonna get a new electric razor, I'm going to get some new shoes and shirts and stuff, and my sister......I think mum got her something already

Gone for a good several days and the whole forum goes berserk... ^_^''

I went alone to see my cousins up in D.C., and went snowboarding to boot...I wish we had snow down here in the South...

Termin8Anakin · « **Reply #607 on:** December 22, 2003, 06:50:16 PM »

Snowboarding is good

Bust some 1080 moves (or SSX if thats what you like

), and you'll realise that even a simple tripping over a small twig is enough to make bone see the light of day.
I would like to be able to spin 100000 degree circles and do 20000 metre high jumps without squashing my legs

The first thing I have to be able to do is jump that 2cm high lump in the snow, and be able to actually grab the board without breaking my back

Infernal Monkey · « **Reply #611 on:** December 22, 2003, 09:07:59 PM »

Virtua Tennis is fun, Driver 2 is absolute dog crap, and I have no idea about Final Hole...

I'll pick me up a copy of VT. *THUMBS ARE UP*

akdaman1 · « **Reply #612 on:** December 22, 2003, 11:12:57 PM »

Yeah MSN is crazy ...agheem 7 way chat a few nights ago ...

I played Virtua Tennis for GBA , and it doesnt hold a candle to the ps2 version . Controls are slow , Frame rate pauses way too often ( and for too long ) ...Not enough charecters .

You would really be better off renting a GC game .

You came up my way and you didn't even drop by and see me and say hi? Shame on you. I live in Southern Maryland, Calvert County. You were so close.

KnowsNothing · « **Reply #615 on:** December 23, 2003, 08:32:00 AM »

Not over here it's not. It's Christmas eve eve.

Actually, today is Festivus.

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #616 on:** December 23, 2003, 09:16:38 AM »

Talking about cheap prices, I picked up Evolution Worlds for 13 bucks at Sams Club...It was definitely worth it...

evil intentions · « **Reply #617 on:** December 23, 2003, 09:30:41 AM »

Sams Club, here I come!!!

I get my mom nick nacks for Christmas. Anything that makes the house look cheery.

Infernal Monkey · « **Reply #618 on:** December 23, 2003, 10:41:15 AM »

HOLY CRAP.

Myer

Starts December 26, Ends January 12, while stocks last

50% off all GC games
20% off all PS2/Xbox/GBA/PC titles

Got that from palgn.com O_o
Myer and Grace Bros. run the same sales, right? RIGHT? There's plenty of Grace Bros. stores around me, no Myer. But they're the same thing. *Freaks out*

Mario · « **Reply #619 on:** December 23, 2003, 11:46:13 AM »

O______O

Yes, im pretty sure they are the same thing. I might get rebel strike, billy hatcher and! and! whatever they have!

50% off is insane, for a place that isnt Dick Smith. My Grace Bros hardly has any GC games (surprise), but i'll see what they have!

Infernal Monkey · « **Reply #620 on:** December 23, 2003, 02:22:29 PM »

OUCH.
I just got back from town (er, I forgot to buy my Nana a birthday present... Some scratchies will do

)
I decided to check in at Grace Bros and see what's doin'. That 50% thing does not exist apparently. ;____________________;
The lady thing at the sound & vision bit rang up the manager for me (customer service is good

) and it seems it's just not on. The 20% thing is true, and will include GameCube and Game Boy Advance. Bah.

Oh well, back to getting Virtua Tennis for me!

FREE KEVIN, Never Happening, I am a tremendous clownboat.

Mario · « **Reply #621 on:** December 23, 2003, 02:47:28 PM »

Hopefully we get a catalogue to clear all this up
