Title: What is the best gift you have ever received?
Post by: zolace on August 04, 2014, 03:30:55 PM
I had this box full of undeveloped Kodak film from pictures my dad took over the last 30 years that i'd been hauling around forever from way back when. my wife had them developed and made a big photo album out of it. stuff I had long forgotten about when I was a kid.

I think love from my wife, the best free gift I ever received :)
Material things pass by the time but other, invisible things and present, never pass.

An Amiga 500+ from my parents. We thought we got all of our gifts that one axemas and then they told us to throw out all the rubbish. In the bin was a nice shiny box of awesomeness!

The best gift I've ever received was the $5000 my grandmother left me after she passed away this spring. because of the boost to my savings account my husband and I were able to buy our first house. I'm ordering a garden stone to be engraved with her name and "Thank You, grandma" because as someone who graduated high school the year the economy tanked, I NEVER thought I would be able to own my own house. I'm in tears just thinking about her and how sweet and thoughtful and generous she was.

At first I was going to say my car because I love it but now I'm just going to go with life in general.

Wow, that's nice! When was this? Was this back when the NES was still new or was it a retro-gift. I mean, people that grew up with a NES will still enjoy the crap outta it today. I prefer playing GameBoy games over any of those modern slaughter fests.

For Christmas last year, my co-worker (who was the only one who really knew what my interests were) got me a beer mug filled with candies and a pack of cigarettes! I love Smokes, beer and candy, in that order.

Getting all sentimental and shit in here.

My favorite was getting the PS2 when it was sold out everywhere. I was the coolest kid on the block for like a week

After my both of my dogs died on the same day, one due to a car and other having a stress related seizure two hours later (yes I know it doesn't sound possible, but it happened), one of the friends I play league of legends with whom lives in California while I live in Georgia sent me a care packages filled with popcorn, birthday cake mix, a gangplank oranges squishy ball, Imgur upvote stickers, and a card. I cried right there in front of my dad and it's the kindest act of human compassion I've ever had happen to me.

My girlfriend build an amazing clue game in my house for my birthday. I had to resolve puzzles and search for clues to the next ones for about two hours until I found my gifts. It was unbelievable fun and amazing.

I can't think of anything I've recieved that has been awesome or a lot of thought has gone into it :( but maybe it will come in the future.
