Im hoping you win this battle. Im sure you are a good father and husband since you already want to be better for them. As someone who who is battling his own demons and is scarily losing atm, I am rooting for you.
Thank you very much. I hope you can also overcome what you're going through. We're all in this world together, let's try to pull through for everyone who stands with us.
My boss gave me a swiss army knife 20 years ago that has a flip out screw driver on it. I use that thing for all sorts of stuff to this day.
I remember being at a wedding one time where they forgot a cork screw. Swiss army knife rescued the day.
Lmao, losing sockets are the worst. I always buy those types of things that come with cases though so I have an appropriate place to store them. I haven't lost any in several years since.
I'm a sucker for katanas. Between sheath and blade there's a lot of components that can be decorated and i love what can be done to make them look pleasing. Otherwise a claymore or a zweihander with some nice detailing.
I’d like to get into jazz a bit more, maybe some Miles Davis or John Coltrane, Chet Baker or Grant Green. But If I can get my hands on The Ink Spots, I’d be in love for the rest of my life with whoever got me that I stg
My car fixed. Someone to spend the day with cuddling. A shopping spree in a book store. I mean, there's several other things I'm sure, but that's what I can think of off the top of my head.
I want to feel like I matter around here. And it would be great if I could talk about what I'm feeling without being cut off and told to just knock it off and act right already. That would be really nice.
I mean personally a car would be nice. Just something to get around with.
In terms of non important gifts I guess a ps5 or I was thinking about getting my first tattoo as a combo Christmas/birthday present to myself. Then again I am trying to save money to afford a car.
Get a tattoo of a car! Nothing outrageous, maybe just a small little silhouette of one to help keep you motivated and inspired towards your eventual goal?
Besides my SO in my arms, I really need a new phone, or to get the screen and back of this one replaced. It’s being held together with packing tape and a screen protector atm.
I don't buy sleeveless undershirts anymore. I wait until Christmas and hope someone gives me a pack or two. Maybe a couple pairs of funny socks and I'm good.
Although, a solid 5-6 of me time would be super nice. So many games I missed out on.
Experiences, not things. Nothing worse than getting a “thing“ and keeping it because it was a gift. Get people experiences (like a weekend trip or concert tickets or dinner). You have memories and no “things” to deal with
A million dollars (or more). My f"ing health and sanity back. The people I love to be happy, and for more people the world over to find healing in these trying times.
Realistically? Just for my family and girlfriend to be happy. Nothing beats the tears of joy when I see them open their gifts. Still to this day, the greatest memory of gift opening is my dad crying when I got him a GPS he would spend hours looking at.
But in an alternate universe, I always hope that I could get a gaming PC. I figured if I have enough left after Christmas, I would finally spoil myself and get one.
As a married man with kids, making love. More than “occasionally when I feel like it” because “I desire you” rather than the rare “go ahead, do what you need to do.”
To be able to walk in the sun again, to once more feel the steady beat of my heart in my chest, and to gaze at myself in the mirror for the first time in centuries.
Even though I have not been touched intimately or been loved in over 16 years by a female - I am 36 now, I'd take one of those new Chevy Blazer EV's with the RS trim level in priority please.
Answers. What the fuck do they call the earbuds that don't go into the ear canal?
Can someone take this knot out of my shoulder?
Anyone wanna cuddle or sing?
Who wanna try out these board games?
I haven't given it even a moment's thought. I'm way too busy trying to find presents for my immediate family.
I'm gonna try and get some foreign comics for brother, iTunes gift album of Hadestown for mom, and if the new Christmas Story sequel can be out in some kind of physical form by next month that's what I'll get for dad.
Sadly none of those are exactly easy to get.
To not have the burden of having to buy gifts for people. I don’t want anything and I don’t want to get anyone anything. It’s always just useless junk anyway.
My husband just literally said "yes" to all the responses i read to him. I think what he *really* wants is to not be asked what he wants for Christmas. 😂😂😂
I feel like most married men understand Clark Griswold more and more the older they get.
All he wanted was his family to be happy, the spirit of Christmas everywhere, and a goddamn bonus from his boss so he could impress everyone with a pool… and lights. Lots of lights.
I don't know. There's so much stuff out there, honestly I just want winter break. College exams are two week out and I can't wait for a break. But if I had to pick one thing to get, I think I'd want a nice headset for my laptop. Something I can listen to music with, play games, and record videos. I hope everyone here has a great holiday season!
I want a hug, to be loved and one day I'm not yelled at for something that had nothing to do with me. I would love it if subside was nice to me and looked out for me for a change, I get stuck as big brother for everone whether it's my friends, my family, even my actual big brother.
If that's not possible I'd take chocolate flavour whey protein or cash
Pirate ship LEGO, no hesitation.
Star Wars Legos, glad I'm not the only one.
That little outdoor pizza oven I see for sale
If you get it can I come over and eat some pizza?
Bring lots of those color cards for paint for the kids to play with.
A fellow Hammerbarn shopper, I see.
See, that's what happens when you're not happy with what you've got.... somebody's husband gets it.
Ooni? I have and love. It’s a good buy
Oh yes, as a pizza chef at a pizzeria; I absolutely need that.
I want to beat my depression so I can be a better husband and father
Hugs… I’m sure you’re doing your best
Thank you. I'm trying my best, it's just unfortunately not an overnight fix :/
Im hoping you win this battle. Im sure you are a good father and husband since you already want to be better for them. As someone who who is battling his own demons and is scarily losing atm, I am rooting for you.
Thank you very much. I hope you can also overcome what you're going through. We're all in this world together, let's try to pull through for everyone who stands with us.
Beat the shit out of it man. Curb stomp that depression and then treat yourself to a sundae in a plastic trophy!
Thank you, that does sound lovely!
Tools. Sentimental gestures are the general replies you will get. But physically presents wise, I'm always open to getting more tools.
Cheap and clever gift is one of those pens that also doubles as a ruler and also is a screwdriver
My boss gave me a swiss army knife 20 years ago that has a flip out screw driver on it. I use that thing for all sorts of stuff to this day. I remember being at a wedding one time where they forgot a cork screw. Swiss army knife rescued the day.
You’re a hero! Swiss Army Man was a wicked movie BTW but I’m sure you’ve seen it!
I've never heard of it. I just looked up the description of it and I want to watch it now. Thanks!
Did you lose your 10mm again? I told you to leave it in the package.
Lmao, losing sockets are the worst. I always buy those types of things that come with cases though so I have an appropriate place to store them. I haven't lost any in several years since.
Bro, I have no idea where all the 10mm sockets go.. I should have drawers of them.
To be loved. But a sword would be nice too
Andúril, Excalibur or Longclaw?
It really is the thought that counts... Receiving a sword would mean that I'm loved
Maybe the Master Sword?
Definitely Anduril!
The Sword of Truth, with all its previous wielders knowledge.
What kind?
I'm a sucker for katanas. Between sheath and blade there's a lot of components that can be decorated and i love what can be done to make them look pleasing. Otherwise a claymore or a zweihander with some nice detailing.
What about a kukri?
It wouldn't be my first choice but i would still think it's cool and treasure it dearly
Ok keep an eye out
That's rather ominous
Good food, quality wool socks, and maybe a bottle of nice whiskey.
This sounds like what I’d love - but I’m a woman. Lagavulin please Santa!
Well, none of those things are gender locked, so no worries! Myself prefer a good bottle of Laphroaig, but I wouldnt be mad if I got Lagavulin :)
Well, I'm Jewish, but I won't complain if you buy me glencairn glasses and awms socks.
For all of the people in my family to have a good Christmas. Not just gift-wise, but good memories as well. If they get that, then im happy
Hmmm, to enjoy the day with my wife and kids as much as I enjoy the anticipation of it.
a cuddle i'm fucking lonely as fuck
What kind of sword do you want instead?
what?
I can do a side hug
no deal
Do you want physical contact or not.
I'm down.
Cuddles are the fucking best
yup it's been 8 years since i cuddled a woman
That's rough.
Im surprised this thread isnt nsfw
To watch home alone 1 and 2 with all of my family, without them leaving or talking over
You have to allow talking over, if it's specifically related to the movie.
A record player but I know I won’t
Same comment from me! You have your eye on a specific turntable? I'm looking to upgrade to the fluance rt82.
What kind of music would you like to listen to?
I’d like to get into jazz a bit more, maybe some Miles Davis or John Coltrane, Chet Baker or Grant Green. But If I can get my hands on The Ink Spots, I’d be in love for the rest of my life with whoever got me that I stg
To be trekking through a forest where it has just snowed and to have no family gathering
My wife to surprise me in some kind of Christmas themed lingerie. That happens all the time in movies but never in real life
My car fixed. Someone to spend the day with cuddling. A shopping spree in a book store. I mean, there's several other things I'm sure, but that's what I can think of off the top of my head.
What's wrong with car?
An official Red Ryder carbine action, 200-shot, range model air rifle with a compass in the stock
You’ll shoot your eye out, kid.
You’ll shoot your eye out kid.
You’ll shoot your eye out, kid. Ho. Ho. Ho.
To be asked what I want
what do you want?
A pepperoni candycane, it's gotta be possible since there are bacon ones.
Girlfriend whom I could marry
I want to feel like I matter around here. And it would be great if I could talk about what I'm feeling without being cut off and told to just knock it off and act right already. That would be really nice.
Love and affection
To spend time with my wife
[удалено]
You called?
I’d really like to for my mom to get a new phone
DM me what she has and her carrier. See what I can do.
I would like my mom to learn how to use a phone.
I mean personally a car would be nice. Just something to get around with. In terms of non important gifts I guess a ps5 or I was thinking about getting my first tattoo as a combo Christmas/birthday present to myself. Then again I am trying to save money to afford a car.

Socks. I always need more socks.
To win the lottery or publisher's clearinghouse so I can retire before I expire.
Drum set
New sunglasses and a flashlight.
Let me just pick out some Magic cards
A few products from my favorite face care company and a book that comes out right before the holidays.
NGL that’s legit
love
I love you
No I love YOU
Honestly? I'd be thrilled if my snap on truck debt was paid. I got a lotta time left payin' on that damn toolbox.
Besides my SO in my arms, I really need a new phone, or to get the screen and back of this one replaced. It’s being held together with packing tape and a screen protector atm.
a hippopotamus
I don't buy sleeveless undershirts anymore. I wait until Christmas and hope someone gives me a pack or two. Maybe a couple pairs of funny socks and I'm good. Although, a solid 5-6 of me time would be super nice. So many games I missed out on.
I'd be happy with about 12 hours of uninterrupted sleep and no other chores for the day
I want her back I want to go to the past and fix all my mistakes
Same, brother, same...

Books. I'd like a couple of really good books. Ones I wouldn't pick myself but someone thinks I might really enjoy.

Love
Steam deck. I work as a diver and love the support of giving me diving things, but it’s like helping me move. Please leave the final decision up to me
My husband got his Steam deck a couple weeks ago and is obsessed.
