Refuge Secret Santa - 2024: See you in November!

My person posts almost exclusively in a thread for a show I’m not caught up on. Now I have to watch multiple seasons to see what they’re into.

This is so fun!
I am absolutely the worst at waiting for people to open their gifts (I get too excited) and was 1000% that kid that peeked at all my presents under the tree. This SS will test me deeply on an emotional and psychological level but I’ll do my best.

Thank you for organizing this; now off to do some P.I work on my person.

Happy holidays, everyone!!!

Hell yeah, I couldn’t have gotten a more perfect person for me. already have one “gag gift” for this person, now I need to figure out what he truly enjoys… or just go all in on the spite.

If your profile is private, I think I’m allowed to take considerable liberties with my gift :man_shrugging:

I had to really scour for something, my gift-giving is usually terrible so this should be fun.

I am one of those people with a Private profile.

I have just shy of 9k posts around here (not sure if I should be embarrassed or proud but it is what it is)

The search function works wonderfully finding users posts/activity.

Is hand delivering a refuge secret santa gift socially acceptable? Don’t want any additional chokepoints to get in the way. :package:

Who else goes from super pumped to shop for your recipient to absolutely terrified whoever picked you will do some deep creeping through your posts?!

Also sorry/not sorry to my gui, I shop early so you might be getting your stuff before thanksgiving :rofl:

Have I spent more time searching through my person’s posts than working today? Absolutely. Am I any less nervous about getting them a gift they won’t like? Absolutely not

I mean, the default is always a NLU gift basket right? It is the reason we are all here. Sure it might not seem as personal as you might like but it works if you can’t dig up any dirt on your person.

Got a person that I am not sure I’ve ever really interacted with, though I am generally familiar with their work. Early research provides a lot of different directions; really looking forward to this!!

My person has made some great contributions to the board…just enough teasers for me to think of some ideas but also worried I may screw it up. Good luck everyone.

Anyone else reading people be mysterious about their selection and wonder if they drew your name? Anticipation is incredible this time of the year on the refuge…may none of your significant others find out how much you care about this vs other gift giving this year.

Me, wondering if I should take the extra time we’ve been given and put the effort into building them a personalized gift

Based on the posts, I’m assuming I’m getting several gifts.

Apologies to whoever is tasked with sifting through 3900 posts of my nonsense to come up with a gift.
