Tree Bucket posted:How does this work for international goons? I'd love to give it a shot, but I don't want to make anyone pay for postage to Australia... Sometimes you get a New Zealand goon and the lady at the post office doesn't tell you there's options, and then they get warm socks in March. When they need them! So yeah, it wasn't that expensive, but also like it's the joy of giving... North America bees to you. To trade for your death spiders. Edit: Oh hey there Santa! I'm a work from home since before it was cool goon. I love neat weird things to add to my home office, shiny objects, cool rocks, yarn, candy, candles, things for my dogs.

Different ways of mitigating this have been tried over the years, but anonymous messaging and reminder emails have proven to be the most effective (along with reSASS as noted). There are relatively few deadbeats, sorry you caught it twice.

Dear Santa, I am a 35 year old female Goon in the Midwest (not too far from Lee's Summit, actually). I currently work from home doing medical records, which means I spent 90% of my time alone with my cat. My hobbies include quilting, knitting socks, embroidery, board games but not the really complicated ones, reading both fiction and nonfiction, thrifting, volunteering at a cat shelter, and trying to convince my aquarium fish not to die. I am also an Idiot King in PYF where I mostly use my powers to change thread titles. Things I like: --vintage and antique jewelry, especially lockets and Southwestern turquoise at the moment --cabinet of curiosities stuff (gems and minerals, fossils, bones, bugs under glass, etc). --I am trying to teach myself how to cook! I could use some nicer utensils. --any kind of baked good and any kind of handmade ornament --slightly larger than standard size coffee cups Things I don't like: --NSFW/NMS --scented items like candles or lotions because they can trigger migraines --salmiakki Dear Santee: Hope you like bees!

I also love garden/indoor plant stuff.

Tiaz, i accidentally started signing up with my old account “Chicken Doodle” with the space, you can delete that one from the system as it’s not used anymore. I’m pretty sure this is almost year 10 for me!!! Santa: Hi! I’m a 34 year old goonette who is happily married to a Sasquatch. We are both Nintendo fiends who have been trying to win the lottery so we can finally play all the games we have. Currently we’re playing BD and SP side by side. I used to request beer but due to medication changes I’m not going to this year. But I would absolutely adore something local to you! Candies, chocolates, preserves, even smoked things - if it can travel I would love it! If you’ve got books or anything to do with your local history I love that too. Please no clothing like shirts and pants, but if you want to send things like accessories those are awesome. My old profile was banned and I couldn’t be arsed to dig it up so you won’t find my post history very long, oops.

I am actively participating this year again! Dear Santee, you will get a golf ball. That's about all there is around here. Since I am a terrible Santa, you'll get it Marchish! Happy Easterass! (I'm kidding. Mostly. Maybe.) Dear Santa, I am an annoying fatso, aging terribly into my 40's (Just started)... So typical goon? I have two adorable young male scamps (8 and 6) that I try not to strangle on a daily basis. They are both into switch stuff, are currently playing Breath of the Wild, and also like Sonic and Minecraft. The oldest likes metal and I accidentally got him into Ghost, Tool, Trivium, etc. Oops. My wife is crafty and artsy, and is into DDR, RPG's (Final Fantasy, KH, etc) and other stuff. We're pretty eclectic, and if sending foodstuffs, no nuts please, pea, tree or otherwise. If you have specific questions, message me and I will specifically answer your specific questions. Specifically.

Hooray for SASS this year has been hellacious. I am a 31yo Goon of XL/XXL frame. Me and my wife recently built a house which has eaten DEEPLY into my hobby time, but I enjoy: 1. Dungeons and Dragons and similar TTRPG stuffs, so anything to do with that is cool as hell. Always need more rad-rear end dice! 2. Board games 3. Woodworking 4. Cooking. If you live in a place known for a weird food/spice/culinary tradition hit me up with that funky stuff. We have a great deal of pets: 3 cats, 3 frogs (2 tree frogs and a pacman), and 2 snakes. Cool stuff for pets is great too. I wish I could be more helpful wrt you lurking and spying on me but I do not post much these days and my FB is full of communist memes, but enjoy!

One of these years I'm gonna count up how many years I've done SASS which is still one of my favorite holiday things to look forward to. Dear Santa: I'm a 36 year old goonette who lives with a husband and two cattes. Catte pictures can be posted/sent on request. I love food/things/treats that are local to you and neither my husband nor I have allergies or major food hates. We're major nerds, enjoying board games/ttrpgs/video games etc. I like sciencey things, being a geneticist but especially love galaxy/space things. I know I haven't posted much in recent years but I'd be happy to answer any questions and I'm very not picky. Some of my favorite SASS items I've gotten have been completely unexpected. Dear Santee, Bees of course. I will admit that despite my best intentions, sometimes I send stuff a bit late but I've never stiffed anyone. Mostly because I like to try to include some handmade stuff and some local stuff. But of course, mostly mostly bees. scorpiobean fucked around with this message at 09:17 on Dec 11, 2021 |

In, fuckers. I haven't done this in several years because I'm old and no fun and forget things but the last time I did it was amazing, resulting in, among other things, a handmade Christmas ornament of Janet Reno that is one of my most prized possessions. Will update this with notes for the poor fool who gets matched with me. Edit: And now the notes. Dear Santa, I've been a very bad boy this year, so do with me what you will. As you may recall from the list making and the twice-over checking thereof, I'm a 40 year old tub of rear end that is extremely (and happily) married to a person who is much, much better than I am. We enjoy traveling and have two useless cats who are, despite their ongoing chronic uselessness, our favorites. We're in the process of building and outfitting our new in-home bar in the basement (hooray Wisconsin) so tasteful (or not) accoutrements are welcome. More or less down for pretty much anything else, including but not limited to bees. Sincerely If Not Somewhat Despondently, Beef of Ages =============== Dear Santee, Woe unto thee.

Oh hell yeah. I'm an almost 31 year old lady goon living in flyover country with two cats and a spouse. I work in an office and am known for my collection of cute, fun stuff in my cube. I get excited over silly stuff and I love doing these exchanges. I love art, cute things, cats, octopi, stickers for my water bottles, things from where you're from, funny stuff, weird stuff, nice pens, enamel pins, junk from AliExpress, crafting (I embroider, make floral arrangements with wood flowers, and have a die cutting machine for vinyl and paper), and I just bought a 3D printer. We own two scooters, a motorcycle and have a Jeep Cherokee we're slowly turning into my spouse's dream project car. My shirt size is probably a unisex medium at this point. Also, I love socks and give them as a gift to everyone. If you're stumped, send me cool socks. I have some annoying dietary restrictions and am a vegetarian so please no meat or lots of sweets. My spouse and I had gastric bypass earlier this year so most of that stuff can make me sick. I'm down 65 pounds so far and I am so happy about it. Other cooking stuff like spices or gadgets will happily find a place in our kitchen. Some NSFW stuff is okay as long as it's inside the box and not like, swap.avi territory. Santee: If you want or are ok with NSFW you're definitely going to get an old dusty playboy that the previous owner left in the garage attic. I'll try and pick one that still has the shipping bag on it or I'll send some Lysol with it. Otherwise, expect bees.

Hit me with your best shot, I'm just happy to be here. 420 and nsfw friendly, if that rocks your boat. Medium t-shirt size. Large feet. Accepts bees. Hi Santee. You're gonna get something good.

So glad I checked again, I was rather bummed thinking we didn't get SASS this year! Dear Santa, I have been a very good goon girl this year. Despite a lot of crap at work and home, I have not ended up on any local news stations. This is my....6 or 8th year doing SASS? Maybe longer? I do not have food allergies other than onions. I also play Pokemon Go daily and love Pokemon in general (favorites are Vaporeon, Magikarp, Mew and Mewtwo). Also love hedgehogs (my last one, a female named Butter, died earlier this year. I am looking for another to adopt but it might be a while), cats (I work with a cat rescue, so cat toys are always good!), snakes and tropical fish (I have 8 ball pythons, and 13 freshwater aquariums). If you want to just send me a box of cat toys and air stones, I will use every last one of them. I can always use facemasks because I work with the public and they are dirty and like to breathe on me. Purple, or purple designs, work best with my uniform. Adjustable is great! And if you are a goon with a good music touch, I am looking for an old soundtrack that I can't find online, but I imagine the above is more than enough. Love, Cowslips Dear Santee, You will get local goodies and probably a ton of random cool poo poo IF YOU POST IN THIS THREAD. If you lurk on SA, fine, but if you lurk in this thread, I will donate your gift as money to a local food bank. And maybe send you a box of dollar store crap. Love Cowslips

Dear Santa, I have never participated in SASS before and can't wait to get in on all the magic. I have been mostly naughty this year. I don't know, you might want to notate that or whatever. My frame is XL shoulders atop an L torso . I work from home and like most manner of goony things (D&D, board and card games, new wave, computer poo poo, lefty shitposts). No food allergies. Yours truly, beauty queen breakdown === Dear Santee, You're getting snowball cookies, something related to the Simpsons meme thread, a hand-drawn card, and maybe some other fooferah. If I can't figure out if you have any food allergies I'll leave the nuts out of the cookies. Who knows! Your mortal frenemy, bqb (this is a clever abbreviation for beauty queen breakdown, in case you are wondering)

Dear Santa, Have I been good this year? Uh... moving on. I am a Canadian goonette with an affinity for snowflakes, feathers, and stars. I would love to try any kind of snack or food that's local for you, but I can't stand chocolate mixed with mint or fruit. Otherwise I don't have any allergies to worry about. I'm also open to book, TV, or music recommendations. I love random stuff so whatever you have in mind is probably great! Dear Santee, Love, Pix.

Choo Choo I'm on the SASS train. Hello Santa. This year I have been a moderately good man-child. Just come toddler sit for me so I can go cry in the garage for like six hours or something ok? I'm struggling to make the 2d shoot-em up of my dreams at the moment, so anything to encourage me to draw sprites or make 80's background music would help. Or just ply me with coffee and whiskey. I also have a labradoodle and a wife. My toddler daughter needs to be encouraged to skateboard / play drums / duplo train / dinosaurs. NO MORE loving HORSES. I do quite want a go on a horse though. I like to wear XL things because the baggy 90's is where I made my nest. Gooony goon goon.

Hi Santa! I've done this once before, like... 8 years ago? I got a foam cheese hat and sprayable cheese product from all the way from Wisconsin. It was p rad. (Please don't send me sprayable cheese.)
