It took me a while to really figure this out cause i usually appreciate everything i get, but it would have to be in 1998 i got a nintendo 64 with super mario 64 and WWF Warzone. I was about 9 or 10 then and those game blew my mind back in the day

I can't really choose a "best" gift, but, one Christmas, I got a Barbie car. I had surgery earlier that year, and that was all I wanted for Christmas. Now, I love to donate to toys for tots. I hope that those kids can have something exciting on Christmas

I hope that those kids can have something exciting on Christmas Local Sears i went to had this charity tree thing. Basically a kid asks for a gift and the price is on it and you just pay the cash value of the gift and they get the gift for the kid. Bought a 5 year old some toy whose name i forget. I'll go back there the week and get another bought

I try to go all out, at Christmas. I shop all year long, lol, and donate trash bags full of toys, in addition to gifts I give to family.

*Struggling.*
You wanna know what I got for Christmas? IT WAS A BANNER F***ING YEAR AT THE OLD BENDER FAMILY. I got a carton of cigarettes! My ol' man grabs me, goes "AY, SMOKE UP, JOHNNY!"

Rock'n'Curl Jem and the My Little Pon Perm shop. I've received more expensive gifts, but those were the first gifts I got after a string of hard scrabble holidays. Plus, f***ing Jem, dude. She was bigger than Barbie and she had more articulation.

My first desktop computer when I was 14. It was a Gateway...which if anyone rememembers came in really cool cowhide print boxes. My Grandmother didn't even have to wrap it. I thought Windows 95 and my dial up AOL internet was the coolest thing in the universe.

Tough one, either my first dvd player in 2002 or.. this dude. I showed my dad one time that I wanted that and he was kinda mad at me for grades so I didn't think I'd ever get it. Come Christmas.. Bam!

For Ukrainian Christmas we bought a present worth $50 and put it under the tree. Then we get to pick one. I picked my own, an alarm clock, because I knew other gifts would be useless as hell.

Been a while now, but in Tokyo, most people speak good English. Maybe doesn't hurt to learn the basics like I did before I went out there. Though I forget it now
