I seriously don\'t believe you are 18 0_o.

He was born in 1987 so it is possible (just look at people\'s profile\'s for once!)

Okay, I promised to give you people the full story on the subject of Santa\'s creation:

A long time ago, in the Middle Ages, in a land known today as Turkey, a bishop named Nicholas lived. He was a good man, he did many things for the poor people. Many stories circle around this man, how he prevented the execution of a presumed treacherous general, how he gave gold to three sisters so that they could marry, and many, many more…
After his death, he was declared a saint by the Pope of that time, making him Saint Nicholas. He became the holy patron of fishermen, as a story told he had calmed a storm for a ship to safely reach the harbour (yes, he was dead, but according to roman-catholic belief – meaning the group of Christians lead by the Pope – since he was a Saint, he could intervene with the daily lives of the living). He also was declared the patron of several countries, like Greece, Russia, and some more.
Sometime in the eighteen and nineteenth centuries, where people’s opinion it was that it was important to reward children that had been good – as in more ages – the people of the Netherlands (by that time: Holland, Belgium and Luxembourg) decided they’d make a celebration dedicated to that, and because Saint Nicholas was greatly admired and respected (even though he was dead, but he was a Saint), and because in life he had given a lot to the poor, they made the celebration in his name. It would be on December 6th, so-to-be Nicholas’ birthday, and a fake Saint Nicholas would come with a boat (later on, a steaming boat, and even later one running on whatever stuff modern-day boats run on, but his boat is still called a ‘steaming boat’) and give away presents to the children that had been good, and a sack of salt to the ones who had been naughty, with help of his ‘Zwarte Pieten’, literally translated as ‘Black Petes’.
Because New York used to be known as New Amsterdam, or at least Manhattan, at the time this celebration started, the Dutch in New York celebrated it as well, and so it came to be known to the Americans, who, of course, immediately changed him American: really fat.
They changed his name into something that would be easier to pronounce for Americans: Saint Nicholas -> Sant Niclause -> Santa Clouse, and instead of coming from Spain, which is an awful lot further away from America than it is from the Netherlands, they moved him over to another place which seemed suitable for a guy like him, and where kids probably wouldn’t come much, namely: the North Pole.
Here in Holland, we always make it a really great celebration: good ol’ Nick even has his own television series at Jetix!

I hope to have informed you all well, and you like it.

Stop spamming on my forum and just tell us what you want for Christmas!

That wasn\'t SPAM, I promised people to tell where Christmas originated and I did so. SPAMming is:
...posting several short messages in a row, making only short messages without any goal (answering only \"Yes\", \"Me too\", \"LOL\", etc), making the same post or topic in several forums, making pointless messages, etc. Abusive use of the private messenging system falls into the category of spam too. Massive use of smilies in also frowned upon. I do give warnings, so don\'t be too afraid of breaking this rule without knowing it.

And what I want for Christmas? A really good present, that\'s all. Or maybe LotR in Latin.

Oookay... anything else?(not nerdy)

This is, of course, not meant for you, zero777. The person it is meant for probably knows it, and if it\'s not meant for that person, I\'ll change my opinion and include that person as well:

\"All I want for Christmas, is yooooooooouuuuuuuuu...\"

You want kagome_sakura, right? (It\'ll be a cold day in Hell before I let you have her.)

Take this in a pm. We don\'t need personal issues on thread.

Dude, your overheated head will make us have no good, nice White Christmas. And even if I were talking about the person you just mentioned, people have free will.

BTW, anybody want to have a present given to them by me? Special Christmas Service, Morphman, at your disposal!

Video games, plain and simple.

I want a lot of things for Christmas..

I-Pod
PS3
PSP
Xbox 360
A Roseanne DVD Box set
5 Yu-gi-Oh decks
A new CD player








But all I\'m getting is a Huge Wad of clothes...

Tha\'ts quite a lot of things^_^;

Post redacted

Awww, I didn\'t know you wanted me for Christmas, Morph! That\'s so sweeeet....:lol: Now get me a new cell phone with a camera and bluetooth technology!:D And an IPod, and a PS3, and a Revolution, and, and, 5 games for the PS3 and Revolution, and how many times can I say \'and\'? Oh, and don\'t forget my Nissan 350Z!

Ipods are indeed trash. C\'mon, they\'re Apple products. Geez.

And oh, Kagome Sakura is mine by the way. Because women are objects LOLZLOLZOLZOLZOLZ

..please note that was some heavy sarcasm.

I love Apple products, I am using one as we speak, but I\'d rather have an old-fashion CD player. iPods are a waste of money if you ask me.


:rofl:
Looks like everyone owns me this Christmas. o.0

And hey zero777, you DO NOT own me. You are merely a dreamer! Keep me out of your dreams!

Post redacted

I\'m getting a 300gig External hard drive with a few CD\'s that want. I\'ll probably be getting a few gift cards for F.Y.E as well.

Wind, I see what you mean about Nissan, but that was back in the 70\'s.... I dunno, I\'ll research it and get back to you on it, but I don\'t think the 350Z is gonna go break down in 2 years. It\'s also slightly faster than the \'06 Eclipse! PM me if you know anything about Acura\'s, Wind.

Ahem! Back on topic, I\'d also like to add a better sound and graphics card to my computer.

Jezus Born in Nazareth, the three kings go to him and gives much presents! silver and gold juwels.

Erm... just to tell you, this is a topic about christmas present YOU YOURSELF want. Not really what Jesus got, X-mas officially didn\'t even exist back then.
BTW, the three kings, Balthazar, Melchior and Caspar gave gold, mirre and that smelly stuff I forgot the english name of.

Frankenscence? (Spelling?)

KYK is back, baby! Woot!

Anyway, the top of my list is a USB Flash Drive. I really need one. Next is a PStwo (the slim one). After that are some games like Smackdown vs Raw 2006 (I love these games), Tekken 5, Soul Caliber III, and Dynasty Warriors 5.

I\'m leaving \"subtle\" hints about the dvd-rw burner all over the fridge.

...wonder if my dad\'ll notice, lol. (It\'s the only ONE thing I need/want for christmas. =/)

I got an early Christmas present today! Me and my brother got a German Shepard puppy.:D

I am going to ask santa for a German bolt action rifle with the field kit and some black converse, switchblade a lowrider bike and mabe some fireworks.

[font=BankGothic Lt BT]What I think would be nice would be some more clothes. It\'s weird, as you get older, you want less and less...

I\'ve already got a laptop coming at the end of the school year, and I have to fund my own car. I\'d get a desktop computer for myself, and as for Ipods...they\'re nice, I\'d like one, but 300$? No thank you.

Nope, I\'d be fine with some clothes and stuff. Maybe a little petty cash, or something, you know.

Christmas is about family, not presents, that\'s what I think.[/font]

Good, yes indeed it is about family, but the topic speccifically says \"CHRISTMAS PRESENTS!!!!!!!!!!\".

Hey, the best present may be that you can be with your family for X-mas.

Agreed, If you have a family for Christmas you really don\'t need anything else.
