Thom Posted December 26, 2007 Posted December 26, 2007 I'd say I did well. Got a Lomography Holga camera, some Nudie Slim Jim jeans, Jean Paul Gaultier homme, two bottles of CK One, a really nice Red/Blue lumberjack shirt, A Bugged Out Mix by Klaxons on CD, American Psycho and Bonfire of the Vanities books, and the usual socks/boxers which this year are actually wearable, and some toiletries which I probably won't use because I only use certain products, but bless Mum for trying. I got my Mum some GHD's and my Dad a couple of games for his DS, so therefore I also got some GHDs, and a couple of games for my DS... Hitting the sales with a couple of friends when I've done my hair to see what else I can get. Can we compare shittest presents? I feel that there must be SOMETHING positive that can result from me getting a disgusting green Che Guevara t-shirt in size XL... Quote
Smacktalks Posted December 26, 2007 Author Posted December 26, 2007 I got mostly cash, FIFA08 on the 360, Al Murray's new book, some toiletries and a load of sweets. I've just spent some of the cash on some new jeans and stuff from Topman, the rest is going on an Itrim shaver and a 500gb media hdd for my tv. Quote
bigpoppn Posted December 26, 2007 Posted December 26, 2007 @Rick, the console itself came with some shitty games. Although I'm slightly addicted to CoD2, even tough it's sortof old. This morning I was planning on buying Assasin's Creed but it sold out so I had to settle for Kane And Lynch: Dead Men.Jeff Gerstmann was right about some stuff.Anyhow, I'm getting SvR2008 for my birthday this week.

Jonny Posted December 26, 2007 Posted December 26, 2007 I'd say I did well. Got a Lomography Holga camera Lomography Holga cameras are well retro. I got a new Kodak bridge cam, money, dvds, a book on shots and cocktails (I'm studying mixology) and other things. I'm getting gifts from my girlfriend on Friday when I go to stay at hers. Christmas has been very quiet this year. Quote
Subrick Posted December 26, 2007 Posted December 26, 2007 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boxing_day @tox Why would you want a Wii Zapper? It's poorly made, hard to control, and too small. Quote
bigpoppn Posted December 26, 2007 Posted December 26, 2007 Now that was an unpredictable post for you. Love to see his comeback.. Quote
Subrick Posted December 26, 2007 Posted December 26, 2007 Hey Thom, quick question. I was fucking your mom last night and does she have any diseases? Quote
Thom Posted December 26, 2007 Posted December 26, 2007 That last post must be very embarassing for you in hindsight... Quote
RingMaster2001 Posted December 26, 2007 Posted December 26, 2007 Oh my god. Your mum cusses. This board has sunk. Quote
samountain Posted December 26, 2007 Posted December 26, 2007 Hey Thom, quick question. I was fucking your mom last night and does she have any diseases? Boo I didn't get anything. Possibly something to do with me being non-Christian... but I did have a nice Christmas day, going house to house and mooching off others' celebrations. It all came down to: Australians love beer and lots of meat, Greeks love making a ridiculous amount of food more than is needed and then forcing you to eat it to make up for the fact, my family celebrates with nachos (?), some people are still dicks even on Christmas. Joy. ANYWAY, I have a lot of money so I'm going to buy myself a bike my friend is building for me, an overdue haircut, maybe try the ol' gym thing again, some nice clothes and this really nice fragrance I smelt the other day which is much better than my current Hugo Boss (which I bought with bias because of the cool silver case), and it is called Joop Jump. It's good stuff. And the rest is going towards this thing called Tunarama, which is a tuna throwing festival. I don't even know what to say that would express how ridiculous the idea is, so I'll just link you to the website: http://www.tunarama.net/ And I'm going to also give blood next week, which I decided way before Christmas but you know... I may as well say it's for Christmas why not. Andddd that's about it. Quote
RingMaster2001 Posted December 27, 2007 Posted December 27, 2007 Thanks Sahil, you've ruined Christmas you heathen. Quote
bigpoppn Posted December 27, 2007 Posted December 27, 2007 A tuna throwing festival.....really? Quote

I feel that there must be SOMETHING positive that can result from me getting a disgusting green Che Guevara t-shirt in size XL... nice camera we bummed them when I was in college but I never got round to getting one to this day. I still reckon someone should just make a filter process on a normal digi camera to simulate cross processing and light bleeds of those cameras, and make themselves a shitload of money. Problem with lomography is its still analog - great for somethings but printing is expensive still, if your doin it yourself, and cross processing is even harder to get done. Short of setting up your own lab but that in itself is an expense. Not knocking the camera, it makes lovely images, but its just the fiver a pop thats held me back really. I got a couple of wii games despite only asking for one, Unreal tournament 3 for the editor (fucking play.com sent the wrong one though, so I havent got the tut dvd I needed.ARSE.) And a fucking amazing 12" Alien figure off the woman. Its immense. But mostly, I got what I wanted, in part, and that was some fucking time off from doing any work at all. Quote
Thom Posted January 2, 2008 Posted January 2, 2008 Yeah I didn't do my homework properly and thought 120 film would be able to be developed anywhere, apparently only Jessops do it, which is an inconvenience. When I find some foam around the house I'm gonna do a temp mod so that I can use 35mm film in it, and cause the film is smaller if you get a contact sheet printed then the photos cover all of the negative, including the top and bottom perforations. Should be a hoot. Depending how it turns out I might just use 35mm all the time if 120 is gonna cost Quote
