Can you tally up the total amount of arms ripped off? EDIT: This should link to pictures of my bookshelf! http://imgur.com/a/pSkOC Notable things that are not pictured but I do own. Denny O'Neil's Question run, the rest of 20th/21st Century Boys, all of Pluto, and maybe a few other things here and there. If you see a gap of a couple of books in a long running series, I'm probably just letting someone borrow them I'm gonna put this in my first post of the thread too. Senor Candle fucked around with this message at 23:58 on Nov 28, 2014 |

Senor Candle posted:Can you tally up the total amount of arms ripped off? If you count the vague answers (such as "I haven't been keeping track") as 0, it averages out to about 55,556.83 arms ripped off per person. If you take the one outlier out, it comes out to about 1.35 arms ripped off per person. The total amount of arms as recounted by BSS Secret Santa participants is 1,000,023 arms. Busy year, guys.

It's okay when all the arms used to belong to Teen Titans.

Dropping by to say hi. Just as a small suggestion, include a note with your gifts. It only takes a few seconds, and it goes a long way. Opening a box of goodies with no explanation, even if it's awesome, can be a little anti-climactic.

I got a package addressed to my username, which is either from my Santa or a particularly astute internet stalker. Either way I look forward to opening it in a few weeks  Santee: I'm putting together what is hopefully not a godawful box and should have it out by the end of the week.

Dear Santees, I've ordered most things I want to get, and I'm going to pick a couple things up locally to fill out the gift. One item has a delivery range of Dec 9-24, so hopefully it's on the early end of that and I can get things out next week, but if not, I'll be sure to update Dr. Hurt to let you know you might not get things till after the new year.

Yea, I'm sending out my gift tomorrow. I might find some nice little knick-knacks before then to put in the gift. Also my santee will either love me or hate me after getting the gift.

There's a full Blackest Night (maybe Flashpoint too) and Fear Itself floppy set going around from last year that I sent out. Not quite as bad as Onslaught but still painful.

The item that might not be here until Dec 24 is the first to ship, so I'm guessing I'll be able to get stuff out next week unless they were dicks and sent it Media Mail.

Santee, I already know what I'm doing for your gift. Part of it just needs me to check a place or two for one thing, and then get something unrelated to the checking. I'll check back in once I've gotten it all together and sent out.

Dear Santa, Thank you so much for your gifts! Sadly my roommate is crazy and has driven me from my apartment. But thank you the goon who sent me hardcovers of Waid's Daredevil, Watchmen, and Onslaught Saga.

I think it may be time for a separate thread for people to show off their swag that they got from Santa. That or maybe Waterhaul might need to change the thread title. Also if you can, take pictures of what you got to show it off!

Dear one Santee, I ordered a used, out of print book that I really think you'll like from an Amazon seller and it their brilliant idea for packaging was to put it in a plastic bag without any protection and drop it in Media Mail, so it got to me a bit banged up. I complained, and they're sending me another copy for free, but this also means your present might be delayed just a bit longer than I had hoped. It will be worth it, though! I do hope you haven't read it, but based on your message, I don't think you have. In any case, I'll be sending you the better of the two copies and keep the other for myself because it's something I loved when I initially read it, but I haven't since it was on the stands.

So I get home the other day and see a package waiting from me from Amazon. I hadn't ordered anything from Amazon in a while so this might be a bit strange. I open it up and what do I see.  I definitely didn't order Southern Bastards so this might be from my Santa and if it is thanks Santa. Been meaning to read this for a while.

Guys a gift came! I won't be here for Christmas and trucking this down to Florida by plane isn't happening, so I'm opening now! Seems innocuous enough...  Awesome! Expanding my manga knowledge is an awesome idea!  ...I don't like the sound of that.  I appreciate the wrapping job, especially since I don't think I'll be doing it for my Santees.  Oh neat! I've seen some edits in the comic strip thread using his work, so I'm looking forward to this.  Looks cool flipping through... Still not seeing anything too bad in here...  Eh. It sucks, but I've already read it and it's no Onslaught. Note this is missing what looks like two parts thanks to Senor Candle's generous donation. But what's on the other side?  Hey what's worse than a stupid event comic? The modern What If? comic based on it! There's four issues here which I hope to god is the whole thing since that's already four more issues than this deserves. But what's in this last package?        Welp. But seriously, thanks for this, Senor Candle! I'm looking forward to reading the manga stuff and also I will read the other junk maybe. EDITOR'S NOTE: Order depicted was for dramatic purposes only.

I'm glad you like it! EDIT: Also I think it's just the UXM issues of BotA that are missing. Not that it's a big deal because nothing loving happens throughout that whole thing anyways.

That's a pretty awesome start. Uzumaki is also the best place to start with Ito, since it's definitely a litmus test on whether you're going to enjoy his other stuff. I hope you do, because Ito is a lot of fun to read and probably out of any horror writer out there does the best job at capturing what a nightmare feels like. Sure some things never get explained and nothing really adds up, but you just have this feeling that something really awful happened. Also Monster is probably one of the best mangas out there so I hope you dig it.

Hello Santees, I just got back from a week vacation in SF so I am working hard packing things up. In the mean time, there's a local Christmas sales here and I think I'll pick up some more stuff for y'all.
