I'm not Santa but I'll play one on my weblog.

GIFTMIXER 3000 is funny and surprisingly accurate.


I signed up for secret santa thing but it just wasn't enough to get me into the holiday spirit.

So I had an idea last night.

I'm going to accept comments on this post until December 12th. Anyone who includes a link to their wish list to any store will have their name put in a hat. On the 13th I'll draw a name and buy a present from the wishlist (or send a gift certificate if there isn't anything on the wishlist that's under ten-fifteen bucks or you're in a country where shipping is going to cost a fortune). And hopefully it'll get to you in time for Yule, Xmas, Kwanzaa but a bit late for Chanukah.

Just my way of sending out a little love and commercialism to try closing out the year of fucking doom on a positive note.

So you've got a week to sign up. And don't forget to link to your wishlist! Or you can always be sweet and link to someone else's wishlist. And you can spread the word if you want to.

Ooh! Present whoring! Whee! Here's my list of knick-knacks.

I'd totally snaffle your idea and use it myself, but I'm already taking part in Secret Santa and bestowing surprise gifts on bloggers that I adore.
