In the past couple months, I've purchased four new video games. Today, I realized that, aside from those games, I wasn't really sure what I wanted for Christmas. So I figured I'd create a thread on TL and steal ideas from you guys in order to augment my own list.
Please refrain from critiquing anyone's wish lists. This is a place for sharing, not bashing someone's taste in clothing, music, film, video games, etc.
Also, I think I speak for everyone when I say this: those of you who are going to post things like "world peace" and "nothing but my girlfriend's love" can go to hell. The last thing we need are a bunch of people subtly trying to make us feel like the materialistic bastards we are! Give in to consumerism!
My List
The Calvin and Hobbes Box Set. This is self-explanatory. Bill Watterson is amazing.
Two of the old James Bond novels. I don't know if anyone else is a fan of these. I've read three so far, and they're decent, light reading -- good for flights, train rides, and extended stays in the restroom. I'm chiefly interested in Casino Royale to compare it to the recent film adaptation. On Her Majesty's Secret Service is supposed to be on par with You Only Live Twice, by far the best of the three Bond novels I've read so far.
Sennheiser PXC 250 Active Noise Canceling Headphones. I'm sort of unsure about these. My job sends me on a reasonable number of trips per year, so if this "active noise canceling" technology actually lessens the blare of a jet engine, these headphones will be worth their weight in gold. If they're no better than in-ear headphones, obviously I'll be disappointed. CNET really likes this model, though. Does anyone have any experience with noise-canceling headphones?
Handmade damascus santoku from Master Asai, with a blue super steel core and red sandalwood handle. I won't actually be asking for this, but it's worth noting that I want it. If anyone else on TL knows what blue super steel is, we should be friends.
That's it for me, aside from the usual mix of dress shirts, socks, and boxers. What's on your holiday wish list? Remember, I will be stealing the best of your requests and adding them to my own list. 'Tis the season!

Sin City, I have read all the books but I want the copies for my self. However at about 20 a pop... thank God for Christmas.
Completely useless, but I quite enjoy PBF
I know it's a bad wish, but with university coming up how could I not.
I don't have one yet 
I started to get into SF4, what else can I say?
That just about sums it up for now.

I only want one thing.
Sadly my wish is doomed to failure.
|
I got my Christmas present, a month early.
Yes, I wanted a blender for Christmas, and yes, it's probably the only thing I'll be getting.

as you can see from the picture above they look almost identical.
Noise canceling on the plane works excellent. Really eliminates the roar of the engine even without music running. Only setback is the bulkiness of that noise canceling switch and the battery requirement.
