Got my Badvent calendar. Yeah baby! Hopefully we'll see some serious shite!

Hurray! Can't wait to see it. Only a few weeks left. Yikes!

(I'd better hurry up and get these Advent Calendar games ready!!)

I have the two ones I haven't done packed, but do not know if I will be able to get to them. May order something this year, will have to see.

Please do join in the festivities - the more the... more!

@Jay: Yeah, I could have got the next Star Wars minifig thing like the last two years but they were both too good. I really wanted something more fun that I can take the piss out of.

That's a real sizeable box there. Cool

I am going to pass this year, as it starts on the 1st, when I will no longer have Internet access. Given the library's Christmas schedule, they are usually closed for two weeks in December, so I would not be able to go there and use the internet.

Aww. A shame, but there are more important things in life than advent calendars!!

That's a bugger, but understandable.

Next year though. It's a date!

It's 24 dates!

Something really strange just happened. It is like my body was being controlled, I went to Amazon and ordered an advent calendar. Didn't cost me anything, as I have $30 in points with my Amazon credit card. Should be here on the 18th. Just mine may be delayed a bit, not sure how fast I can get Internet service at the apartment.

Jayenkai
Oh dear!!
Don't go crazy with trying to get quick internet access. There are more important things!!

Problem with trying to get any kind of tech service right now are equipment shortages.

Anyway, not posting a link to what I ordered as the pictures there spoil any surprise. But got something cutesy that could sit around the apartment and always donate at a later date.

One of the first things I got when moving was three cutesy cat cushions, yay cuteness!

Even though I have not received it, I got a lovely email saying it has a 30 day warranty from the time of purchase. Time of purchase, not date of delivery. Either way if you need a warranty for this, you may have larger problems in life you need to worry about.

Granted Amazon warehouse employees are experts in fucking shit up and packing things in a way they are guaranteed to get severely damaged in shipment, but I think what I ordered is something that even the mighty Amazon employee can't fuck up. You might say what I ordered is unfuckupable!

Jayenkai
To be fair, once 1st December hits and you rip open the first door, I think that probably voids the warranty, 30 days or not!

I've ordered my Christmas prezzie for me the other day, just have to wait... 14-31 days until delivery!

Oooh!
No idea what we're doing for presents, this year. Kinda feels like last year's Covid-enhanced lacklustre Xmas deserves a super-Xmas this year..
Damned if I can come up with anything, though..

Came today. Box shows what is in it, so might as well post the pic from Amazon. Got something cutesy that would not take up much room and could put around the apartment or simply donate when I am done.

Ooooh, lovely! (Spoilers, though!!!!)

Thery're too good for Badvent!

And yeah, as Jay said "spoilers" - that's one of the reasons I'm not showing the box or mentioing any contents until go time.
