MA-Horus posted:I recieve a package delivery notification. The sauce is a completely exaggerated batch from home-grown Carolina Reapers with barely any regard for taste in favor of kick. It's vinegar-based though, so you don't need to treat it like Mayonnaise, but I would still recommend using it for spicing up larger batches of cooking. The sex toy is...well, you see, I got drunk while watching league of legends, and I was on Discord, and I suddenly felt that just sending a small bottle of chili sauce wouldn't quite do it. Also, EBB immediately guessed it was going to be hot-sauce, so my pride was hurt and my only recourse was to one-up myself, and I ended up evening-express-ordering Germany's most popular fake-vagina because I figured it would be funny as packaging. Upon delivery, I experienced a number of mixed feelings, chief amongst which was elation over the interior "cage" (I guess?) of said sex toy somehow being to the exact dimensions of the glass bottles I had ordered about 80 of to supply colleagues with. It was almost as if god willed it. I'm fairly sure I kept celebrating my happiness over that fact on Discord, and because adult beverages were continually being administered, I not only hosed up the initial order of the shipping label (which I had to reclaim later), but started getting cocky when filling out the customs declaration. About a day after I had turned in the package for shipping, it occurred to me that a fluid-filled glass core inside a bullet-shaped container, roughly the size of a 90mm shell could potentially raise a customs eyebrow or two, I started to question my decisions. The package clearing outgoing customs only provided a minute amount of relief, because now I was thinking how the inbound customs folks across the Atlantic would eyeball an IED-shaped gift from loving Germany. TL;dr: I'm happy you got your gift in time. Lessons-learned: 1. Do not drink and Secret-Santa 2. Do not taunt customs officials on a written declaration... ...for something that looks like a bomb ...that you packaged inside a hollow sex toy ...and then cushioned with socks and underwear

For the record I’ll be mobilizing on the 30th so if mine doesn’t show up before that I’d appreciate getting notified if my wife can just place the box aside until I get back.

I'll be gone from the 24th to the 29th, but packages generally get accepted by neighbors, and in case of non-delivery, I think the storage period is upwards of 10 days, so I think I should be fine.

A mystery package at my door? And addressed to the name I give out for secret santas? Better throw caution to the wind and open it in the middle of my office - thanks for not mailing a glitter bomb! What's this?  Quite the haul! Starting with a plane mold ice cube maker. My old (boring normal) ice cube mold broke over the summer and I was way too lazy to buy a new one, so every single iced drink I have at home will now come with miniature airplanes.   My inner 9 year old (and outer 31 year old) is going to have fun throwing planes at all my coworkers tomorrow morning. This is definitely happening. They're gonna hate me, but... well... it's good to be the boss.   Keeping the theme going, I need to run out and buy a six pack to push the flight envelope of this experimental aircraft.  Oh my god. I was waiting until after the holidays to pull the trigger on buying this. My chief is going to flip his poo poo when I show up on the flightline wearing the belt. It's a Festivus miracle! This is rad. I've been in the USAF for 11 years, and it's super rare for me to get aviation themed gifts that aren't super moto and/or patronizing, so an extra thanks for that. Thanks a lot, Barcley!

Also Slim Pickens I don’t know what the gently caress was in those treats you sent Lando but the other day he grabbed one and went bonkers! He ran around the house in full zoomies mode throwing the thing around like it was a trophy. Here’s a picture of the Deranged Dingus in between freakouts, giving the camera some full on crazy eyes!

Show us the Radio Receiver! That Geiger counter / Survey meter is cool as gently caress! I always wanted one of the ones that detected alpha and beta particles. Now you have some homework to see what your detector can find. Looks like this Secret Satan is going great this year. Lots of fun all around. Love you all!
