Re: Source Secret Santa Bragging Thread
They work now, glad you liked the gift! And to stay in the good spirit of sharing stuff, here's what my Santa gave me:
Picture 1
Picture 2
Not on the photos a German Darkblast and Grafdigger's Cage. Everything has been put to good use already! :)
Edit: I can't get the links to show as images, even though they are .jpg files that should be supported. Any help would be appreciated.

Pretty sweet poem too... It came with a disclaimer
"The writer takes no legal responsibility for god-awful poetry. Read on at your own risk..."
The poem reads (in case you can't make it out from the picture)
"Through eggnog and snowmen,
The season has gone...
Storm have blown your gift,
to the far Amazon!
Fret not dear friend,
Avoid Fate you will!
For with this note, the holiday spirit carries on."
~Goin Aggro
Back up Secret Santas are the best.
Re: Source Secret Santa Bragging Thread
Hey guys,
Small story incoming:
The story of the haunted package
Mr. Paul7926 was my Santa buddy, and this is the story of his package. In December he promptly sent the package to me and I never got it. After entering in contact with him, he sent me the tracking number so we could find out what happened.
The package appeared in England postal office with the final message
PORTUGAL, ON ITS WAY TOGLS PORTUGAL
But it never arrived to Portugal's postal office.
After a couple of mails by his and my part to the respective postal offices, we arrived to the conclusion that it was lost and we would never get it.
Fast forward 1 month, Paul IM me saying that the package was at his door. We traded addresses again and here we go again. I see the package was sent by plane last Wednesday but again nothing arrived on my end.
Worried I investigated a bit and found that TOGLS was a typo by the royal mail and it actually means TO GLS. Google-fu a bit a found the company GLS from Portugal that does deliveries here.
Entering the Tracking No it says it was delivered but no package/notification to be found. I get the number and after an hour I can get hold of the address to pick up my package.
The address is from a perfume shop in the middle of town, and I have to get it today till 5p.m. or it will be send back again(Only 1 day to pick it up). Fuck work let's go search for it. I find the shop but no parking spot to be found, so I just park in front of the store to pick it up and go off again. The shop lady is talking at the phone so it takes 15 min for her to get to me but eventually she gets me the package and I am a happy man. Until I get to the car and found a ticket. Now I am pissed again, so I went to enter the car and it is blocked. FML. after 30 min the cops come and unblock it and finally I am back to work.
Still haven't open it but will post some pictures when I get home.
@Paul You are the man! Thank you a lot.

At this point, I feel like swimming it across the channel would have been more reliable and easier.
That said, grats to both of you on a successful Christmas. Hopefully there was nothing perishable.
