Oh, I forgot to mention that I'll send something to whoever it is I get, regardless. You'll get a kitt-er, nice gift that isn't alive or dead at all, no probs. :o :)

I mean really, if they say no, then they're TEH EV1L. Seriously. :(

Mm... suppose it wouldn't hurt to do that, at least. Heavily reluctant to do so for some reason but it'd definitely be much easier that way.

It's just the way I think. I've no idea if a big faceless corporate office [most of the staff of which are people I've never actually met-office workers and grunts work in seperate sections] Would allow a little gamble like me to have stuff sent there.

And, though I know it sounds weird, I'm very protective/possessive of my incoming mail. I'd rather it came to me directly. Anyway, doesn't matter... I'll have an ask tomorrow.

the other option is that whoever gets you out of the draw just holds off sending until you get your new address sorted, no one would mind that i'm sure.

They're TEH EV1L. :( Though they were rather polite about the evilness. I should have phrased my asking differently, maybe, I dunno... But that's a no-go.

Looks like it's the send early/send later option. I don't really mind which, it depends on what the sender wants to do. :)

Check your PM's dudes and gals.

I am missing some adresses (Metal Vendetta, spiderfrommars, Brendocon).
And some of you left out your names when you sent me your adresses (well, some of the US people did). Are those not needed?
Look in your "Sentbox" under your PM's and review what you gave me.

Cheers.

You know, when I get Karl or Hound and I end up buying gay pr0n just to be considerate, my wife is not going to buy the "it was for a friend" line.

I bought gay porn for a friend's birthday recently. Nothing like being a bit pissed up in the offie, rummaging through the top shelf and shouting back to the dude at the counter "Haven't you got any GAY porn?!!?" and then him saying "Of course sir, here it is."

Another friend, last year I got him vintage hetero porn (issues of Mayfair and the like from the early 1970s) and used gay porn as wrapping paper. This year I found wrapping paper that's got a plain pattern on the outside and gay porn on the inside, which is awesome.

I probably buy too much gay porn.

We really should do a Transfans Blind Taste Test Thing.

Where you get shown a post and have to guess who made it...

That would be the Emvee post.

How about guessing the 'root' username? i.e. the main account which spawned these many spinoffs? Then again then it just becomes a 'hunt the alt-ids' game...

Why don't we combine the two and spam beastiality?
