Default Talksox Secret Santa/Secret Hannukah Harry

This thread is solely to gauge interest. I'm happy to run this as long as we can get at least 10 people interested. If interested, please add your name to the list below. We can limit gifts to $10-$15. The only restriction I'm going to place on this is that you must be at least 18 years old to do this. I don't want to hear from parents creeped out about their kids getting dildos in the mail (joke, but I'm serious about the age limit).

7. Calvnhobs6
8. Sox Fan on Cape
9. Youk of the Nation
10.
11.
12.
13.
14.
15.

This will be open to everyone on the site and should be a lot of fun. This will be actively enforced, so if you commit do doing this (in a later thread, again this is just to gauge interest) and you don't send your secret santa a gift, you'll earn yourself a happy holidays permaban from myself.

I'm a bit uneasy about giving out my address to people I've never really met so as good as an idea as I think this is, I'll pass.

Yes, I could use my work address but I don't really want a mystery gift showing up at my workplace either.

The only people who would have your address would be me and the person sending you something, for the record. You don't have to give out your name, you can use a pseudonym.

I don't really care about my name being out, I've got a few people here on Facebook but yea, I'll go in.

FTR, I can't be held responsible for any type of delivery delay caused by customs...

I've read about this in past threads, I would suggest people do it. It looked fun, and as far as I know nobody was murdered or stalked.

I'm in.

Funny, just last week I was looking at the book I got last time we did this and wondering why it was a one time thing.

I'd do it.

If it's organized early i might be able to fight poverty back just enough to buy a nice gift.

Can there be some type of minimum post count to join this thing to weed out the people who wouldn't really care about a permaban to get a free gift?
