It's the most wonderful time of year to clean out the garage and foist your Tacoma water pump gaskets and "Satan for Pres 2024" bumper stickers on unsuspecting goons. Pay it Forward Per last year, I included a “Pay it Forward” section in the sign up form. This will work in the following way: If ya broke, but wanna participate, tick the box. You’ll receive a gift and someone else will take care of your gifting. If ya feeling flush, tick the box. I’ll assign you two (or more) Santees based on your preferences. If I have more people willing to donate than people who need it, hijinks will happen. gently caress you, trust me  Important Dates: Friday, November 4th - REGISTRATION CLOSED. Sunday, November 6th - All pairings will go out by the end of day. Sunday, December 4th - Ship-by Date: Ideal ship-by date. PLEASE do everything you can to have your gift on its way on or before this day. International may require earlier shipping. Sunday, December 18th - Deadbeat Cut Off: If you have not provided proof of shipping by this date, you will be considered a deadbeat and will be banned. No bans for late gifts, simply supply the proof-of-shipping and you’ll be fine How do I sign up? 1. Please fill out the google form located at the link below. This form will significantly reduce the admin burden on me. 2. Once you have filled out the form, please post in the thread using the following template I am NOT including a preferred shipping destination this year. I believe we are all smart enough to figure out how to get a gift to someone around the world using local online retail etc. If you are really struggling or have a special request, please include this in the comments section I am going to RANDOMLY allocate matches this year. You may get last year’s santee. Have fun with it! FILL THIS OUT FIRST https://forms.gle/ykGSuGUGWRUibiA19 In order to make it easier to pick gifts that suit your santee, I have created a more comprehensive “template” for people to use. Please copy/paste the following and alter it to suit your needs. slothrop My vehicles: The tool I most commonly use/wish I had: a 1967 Alfa Romeo Something small I would really like: your dick, exotic snacks Hobbies: bad jokes, cooking Shirt size: no more shirts thank you Food Allergies: none Junk/No Junk: NO JUNK Comments: Love things that are local to your area, food or snack/shot glasses/novelty teaspoons and postcards A local merchant option: gently caress Uncle Jeff and his Discount Emporium. Stupid Mazda/Rotary stickers I made on redbubble Dicks/No Dicks: Inside packaging only thanks ------------------------------------------------------ Comments on the above: Please don't have unrealistic expectations about what you may receive. This is a nice guide to help your Santa out, not a wedding registration. Junk is defined as: Tacoma water pump gaskets, other assorted broken automotive ephemera, 16 gearboxes welded into the best sex robot that hillbilly engineering can achieve. You get the idea. Dicks/No Dicks: Refers to artwork or other gift wrapping of the gift. Consider it a NSFW/Family filter. Sending your gift In addition to the template above, you may wish to refer to your Santee’s post history/threads to choose a gift. I have included a list of suggested items in the post below this one if you are struggling for ideas. I am happy to add to this if you have any further suggestions. Please bear in mind postal systems around the world are overwhelmed due to COVID. Please plan accordingly. One of the best options is the “hybrid” method of buying something for you Santee using a local-to-them online retailer. This is not a necessity, but may be helpful in keeping costs down in terms of shipping as well as getting gifts to Santee’s promptly. It has been traditional in the past to include a personalised letter with your gift. Please consider sending this as well via snail mail. We’ll all excuse you if it arrives after your gift does. Perhaps include a note with your Online Retail order indicating that a letter is incoming. Please feel free to be super creative with your letter, or your gift, if you are close enough to your Santee. Receiving your gift You may wish to wait until a letter arrives, if your Santa has been able to indicate one is on the way. I understand the holidays are a busy time for us all, but please make an effort post to thank your Santa and give a walkthrough of your lovely gift. Sorry for the big wall of text! I’d just like to make this a great AI:SS and bring a little joy into the lives of the wonderful folks here in AI. IMPORTANT INFO Proof of shipment rule -No proof and your santee doesn't get a package? You're a deadbeat. When you ship your gift, you must provide proof of shipment. slothrop.ai@gmail.com with the username of the person you're buying for and the tracking information. If anything goes pear shaped, at least we can figure out where. If you live near your santee and want to drop it off yourself, email me and tell me that you did. -You must provide proof of shipment before the deadline. Please put the tracking number in your email. If you do not have a tracking number, you must EMAIL me a photo/scan of the shipping receipt. - If you hit any speed bumps, have any questions, or need anything at all you can email or PM me. Accepted types of proof - Tracking number from UPS, Fedex, USPS, Canada Post, whatever - Photo or scanned image of your shipping receipt with your username written on it. Most receipts have the zip code of the recipient, so this is how I will check these. Gift cost -If your santee is open to receiving junk, please exclude the cost of any junk from your budget -Try and keep your gifts in the $20-40 range. Make sure you account for shipping costs. If you can't afford a gift plus shipping, please don't register. - Please do not spend stupid amounts of money on gifts for someone on the internet. Unless you're incredibly wealthy, have some sort of personal relationship with them, or it's loving hilarious and fills you with joy to send - If you will be moving or traveling a lot during a gift time, please say so in your email and/or post so that I/your santa knows when and where is the best time to send your gift. If you have ANY questions, concerns or anything you need at all. Please PM or email me! Donations of empathy, the spirit of forgiveness or the milk of human kindness for facilitating AISS are welcome!

Ground Floor. Bajaha My vehicles: '15 Cayenne Diesel, '08 Boxster The tool I most commonly use/wish I had: Small magnetic worklight Something small I would really like: snacks, 10mm sockets, stickers! Hobbies: landscaping, homebuilding, child-raising Shirt size: no more shirts thank you very much Food Allergies: none Junk/No Junk: J-J-J-JUNK! Comments: Novelties, anything interesting for a toddler, automotive themed toys / trinkets / etc appropriate-ish for sub-2 year old. A local merchant option: gently caress Uncle Jeff and his Discount Emporium. https://www.exchangedistrict.org/ - I'm cool with doing pickup if it makes figuring out shipping easier. Dicks/No Dicks: No dicks, don't need to purposefully traumatize my toddler. This year, I would love if my gift can be centered around my daughter instead of me, as mentioned she's sub-2 years old and is currently running around being a little troublemaker. I'm making a conscious effort to hopefully spark an interest in all things automotive so automotive themed childrens books, cool plushies, gearhead toys, or anything child appropriate would be very welcome.

Shirt size: M Food Allergies: None, though I’m not a big fan of bell peppers or tomatoes. Junk/No Junk: I am junk, you won’t scare me. Comments: If you’re in the USA, USPS Flat Rate boxes cost the same to ship here as anywhere else. Just an FYI. Also nobody likes shipping batteries here so those are probably best left out. A local merchant option: I can’t think of any with online ordering. Be aware that there are no roads in or out so ‘the next town over’ is not a quick jaunt. Dicks/No Dicks: I’m more of a boob man, personally, but I’m not picky. Here’s my project thread if you need any ideas: No More Projects!

I will accept anything, naturally, just having trouble coming up with anything giftable that's from Houston that isn't also hot sauce. Dicks/No Dicks: Inside packaging only thanks Oddhair fucked around with this message at 16:13 on Nov 15, 2022 |
