I think it's foodstuffs or something, but you can be themey or not themey, your choice.

For my money, part of the fun is the ambiguity of it. It's not about getting gift perfection; we can do that with our own RL friends and relatives. My advice: take your best shot, and send and receive your gifts in the spirit of the season.

You're quite right. As a matter of fact, I've already bought one thing for my SS! I thought of the perfect thing!

Well, I got my SS. My only thought is that I was sort of hoping for someone who lives farther away. I already picked out the gift myself, although it's 'wife approved'. It's possible that I'm just old-fashioned, but IMO it's just a tiny bit too intimate to give to a woman friend that I might actually meet or have already met.

Sorry Brianna, maybe next year.

Dammit!!! Does this mean that you don't want me to be your SS? Or that I won't get the wife-approved, tho intimate, gift?

You can be my SS anytime. But the gift is heading for Philly.

Huh...My person is really hard, to get! (for) But I think I got it........Maybe if they don't have it already. This sucks because if they have it already I am really going to suck, and if they do have it already I will be awesome.

Oh well, I 'm getting it. Toooday. I am going past budget but I always do. Don't care. It will be cool if they don't have it already. (I think) I don't know this one very well which makes this hard. They're cool, I just don't know them from here that well.

That actually makes this a bit more interesting.
