About the cash/gift card thing: As long as it's to a place I actually shop, I'm all OVER gift cards. I like being able to pick out my own stuff, or having some extra money to blow all over the place as needed.
So, stuff I don't want? ...Generally, anything I don't specifically ask for or hint toward. If I don't ask for it, I don't want it or need it-- or have the space for it-- so save the money and just give me a smile and a card. I'll take care of myself juuuust fine. =P

I don't want -a few- dollars; don't be cheap. If I can't buy cigarettes with someone's Christmas money, it's not worth anything to me. XD

Definitely not 2 front teeth. Did the Tooth Fairy give some teeth back on Christmas one year? :O???? Yup, and a partridge in a pear tree too.

I don't want my brother to buy me a plane ticket back to Sweden so I can celebrate x-mas with my own family. I seriously don't. I want to be here this year. I want to experience this. If I wanted to return, I would've bought the ticket myself. Not like he has offered or hinted at doing it, but his (and my) friend offered it because he wants me to come back, and he's a daaaamn convincing guy. He can easily get brother to buy that ticket. I really hope he doesn't do it! And knowing him, he might be doing it right now!

What right do they have to deprive you of something you want just because they don't like it? Are these your parents you're talking about? >:(

Yeah, pretty much. It is 100% retarded concentrate. It has something to do with the idea that I already have enough video games, or something. To be honest though I'm prolly the most inconvincienced in the house: I can only play any games or the computer for 1 hour a day, and I'm not aloud to have my videogames hooked up in the living room. Instead, I must keep them in a cramped hallway upstairs, without furniture and only have them plugged in while I'm using them.
Sorry about the rant, I just find it is pretty messed up.

Haha, my parents didn't buy me any video games either. They hated video games, and I am glad they did, now (I didn't by then of course). There are way more important things to do than play video games.

Duh, I just realized that I emphasized the wrong word. That's what I get for posting so damn early in the morning. :P There are way more important things to do than play video games. I'm not listening to your lies, Ondore!

There are way more important things to do than play video games. Heh, I know that. Socializing, music, working, action figures, drawing, living, all that shtuff. Oh it isn't THAT bad. I can still enjoy my games and all that. It is just kinda 'noying.

Life's about the money. You gotta need money to get your game fix. If your parents ain't providing, you gotta work. Sucks but that's how the cookie crumbles or whatever.
I hate my job but at least I got the moolah to buy stuff.

Remember, I'm 14. That is below the legal age for most jobs I'd like to do. At least in Canada.

At least you got games now. When I was 14, there wasn't even internet. We played stuff like hide and seek back then. Life was so much simpler. Go read some books or steal your dad's playboy magazines or something. Helps to keep your mind off games for awhile.

I don't like porn, but I do read a lot. I also love hide and seek, and I will admit it... I freeform LARP with my bro from time to time (although not as much anymore.)

Man I remember when Internet became a household thing. Our first computer was some shitty Pentium II, and by today's standards, it was a hunk of junk. Ipods had more memory than that POS. BUT, I was able to discover many great things such as: Roms (Which was a pretty big deal back in the day), Chatting with people all over the world, new anime series/pictures/games, online gaming, and FAQS <----- such a great discovery.
