hello my posting pals

i am happy to participate in another YOSMAS :)


here are some suggestions for my secret santa:

- i have two cats. please feel free to send cat toys, cat treats, or the most irresistible scratching post devised by man

- i have lost a lot of weight this year. please feel free to send a clever t-shirt in size XL.

- i would greatly enjoy foodstuffs, beverages, or other locally-produced items from where you live, especially if you are not an american.
-- that said i am a terrible goonlord who does not enjoy beer or coffee. liquor's fine.

- i've been really digging the aubrey/maturin series of books. please feel free to send me one of the companion books to the series (like the cookbook, or the maps, or w/e), or alternately get me started off on horatio hornblower as i have not yet read any c.s. forester

- i am a huge, huge space nerd. other media concerning space, fiction or non-fiction, will be welcome.

We're in the business of extending man's senses.
im in to send some of my remaining weird electric trash to someone cool

if you get me, please don't send: meat-related products (i'm vegetarian so I can't eat any of your Goon-Made Bacon Jerky)
you can send me something corgi-related if you really want to but i just post the dogs, i don't go around wearing corgi-related merchandise

i like electronic things (cool new things and cool old things), art, books, music, a video card better than my old 7870, etc. I've probably read most given sci-fi books though. local stuff is neat, booze is fine, drugs are ???, etc.

my previous santa was ChickenOfTomorrow and i don't have search so i'm not sure where my unboxing post is. my secret santee was CrazyLittle who got a bunch of weird electric things

edit: my shirt size is an M

im in again

Likes:
  • video games - i have a good pc now but I may be getting an xbox one soon
  • local stuff is awesome - i've taken a liking to whiskey so if you want to send local whiskey that's cool with me. any and all local food is greatly welcomed
  • I bike and do outdoor stuff quite often. Anything bike related is good and I want to get more into hiking so if you think of something for that its cool too.
  • T-shirt size M/L
  • Ich studiere Deutsch für drei Monate. Etwas Deutsch ist gut und kühl. Keine Scheißesporno, danke.
  • I have two cats which love stuff. They're posted at the bottom.


DO NOT SENT:
  • drugs
  • living creatures
  • previous generation game consoles with living insects in them
  • mattresses/other large furniture.

Cats:

ollie - hes dumb and fat




milo - hes not fat and cool

Still better than android clock

in this round of get to know a yosposter, it's me

things i do

- i love to cook things and then eat those things
- i also like to drink alcoholic things from other places, like ouzo and jenever, so if you're from another place and you like a thing they drink there, i would probably be happy to share some
- i'll take your weird scifi books if you want to send them, but i may not read them for some time
- all canadians like hockey stuff
- all nerds like tinkering with electronic things that are supposed to be assembled, programmed or adjusted in some way

things i don't do
- own pets
- maintain a place to put spare mattresses
- pay brokerage fees (i live very close to 13669 so that's a realistic option but the unboxing photos will suck because no loving way am i taking an unopened box of mystery goony goodness through a border crossing)
- if you have had the misfortune of reading my post history and you think i am a muslim or an evangelical christian or something, sorry i'm not one of those

variable_h was my last santee and he seemed generally happy i think; funhilde santaed me last and did pretty well

oh no blimp issue

I like old macs, gadgets, tools, nerdy stuff, nintendo when nintendo was still good, shooting but how the hell you gonna ship anything for that
wifey has a dog who is a mini fox terrier but probably wouldn't wear anything
I have a non-technical girl childe who is 11 months old right now, but if you send clothes remember our seasons are opposite so she won't have an opportunity to wear a size 0 xmas sweater even at a Christmas-in-July party
My shirt size would probably be US size M. malcolm XML got me an awesome xmas sweater in 2013 that fits well

dear santa, I'm sorry you picked me

luckily though I'll enjoy pretty much anything you give me, but here's some vague idea of whatever I'm into

- I like programming and mathematics, I'm bad at both but that's OK because if you have a favorite book on one of these subjects you can send it to me and I promise to read it and then I'll be one step further into being part of the yospos elite
- I like to read comics. whatever kind, some dorks insist on dividing them into bd, manga, graphic novel... but I don't discriminate art
- I'm in the process of moving so I sure could use a cool poster or whatever the hell you give to people who are moving

caveats:
- I play videogames sometimes but I'm currently busy playing Wasteland 2 given to me by Beast of Bourbon last year. this game is kicking my rear end so hard so it needs my full videogaming attention dedicated to it
- lol if you send drugs to brazil. seriously don't do that

information that was asked of me last year:
- M shirt size
- hobby: lovely watercolor drawings
- pretty much cool with all kinds of music
