I haven't decided yet. Maybe I'm overthinking this a little?

I'm gonna be one of those stereotypical people shopping at the last minute.

Something like a new pair of headphones or a VR headset could be cool. Work clothes may be a little too practical, but at least I know they'd be needed. Can't go wrong with socks, right?

Would a bigger ticket item like a sauna be too much?

So much pressure. I think I'm gonna pour myself a glass of whiskey.

I really want a new trebuchet. My wife thinks it's a little excessive, but it would come in handy when I'm laying siege to my neighbors castle.

I've asked Santa for a 120" short-throw 4K video-projector for our home-theater.

Ooh, that is a good one.

I'm not getting myself anything. But if Santa comes, I hope he leaves PoalBucks (the only legitimate cyber-currency for Poalr bears everywhere).

Have you tried VR? That shit is whack.

I played some kind of shooting game set on a floating platform, and I couldn't bring myself to walk off the edge even though I knew it was floorboards underneath me, I just couldn't convince my brain to place a foot off the edge.

Never done it before but i'd like to try.

Which headset?

VR?

I believe it was a HTC vive. It was my mate's, not mine, and it was about 2 years ago, not sure if there's anything better on the market today.

Quit being a stingy Jew and buy yourself a brand new car.

Don't skimp, it's Christmas in July for Christ's sake.

Is that what you're doing? What kind of car would you get?

I didn't even think about Christmas in July, but I just bought some upgrades for my squat rack, and some books.

What upgrades? I got myself a new deadlifting platform.

My squat rack has a cable machine attachment for it. When I bought the rack, I was an idiot, and thought "Pssh! I'll never need that!" Years later, I've been sold on it. So, I bought the sable machine attachment, and a bunch of grips for it. Could have saved $50 and a ton of shipping money if I had bought the bundle years ago, though.

Clearly you were in the spirit even if you didn't remember the holiday was right around the corner.
