Holiday Foistathon Thread!

edited November -1 in The Lounge / Random Stuff

In prior years, Brooklynian posters have gotten together just after the holidays to foist gifts on other, unsuspecting posters (especially newbies).

This event may (or may not) occur this year, but I am pleased to announce what I will bring if the event happens.

...The worst gift I have received this year is a beauty!

Brand new, in box, unopened:

Euro Cuisine Automatic Yogurt Maker

Model: YM 100

3 year warranty

Includes seven, 6 oz jars, make a different flavor in each jar, timer with auto shut off.

[I have no idea how it would work. ...nor do I eat yogurt, even from a store.]

http://eurocuisine.net/index.php?p=100

Similar to Ronco?

This item can be yours in exchange for 1 beer.

Your turn.....

    Want.

    Will foist the higher taste, the karma free vegetarian cookbook with over 50 hare krishna recipes.

    What do Hare Krishnas eat?

    ....I imagine them to be big fans of the "brown rice only" diet.

    I totally would want this! plus I don't have a kitchen in my latest apartment :( so devices that help make foods are rad -

    Stella has dibs on the yogurt maker.

    ....are the rest of you slackers contributing anything?

    I can't be the only one who got a gift to foist this year. There's no way all of you got good gifts.

    Wtf whynot- I said I wanted it! I hate your meanness.

  • whynot_31

    Stella didn't get anything for xmas and you are denying him/her a gift.

    Stella has no kitchen, and you are denying him/her a strange yogurt maker.

    ....and I am the mean one?

    Fine. Since this thread seems to have very little interest, we will do first come first serve.

    Stella- How soon could you come get it at an apt in PH?

    Scarlett- How soon could you come get it at an apt in PH?

    If you committ to a time and don't show, the other gets it.

    Scarlett, check your PM box

    I can't find pms on my blackberry. And I am on the alpaca farm for a long time yet. So take your yogurt maker and put it somewhere the sun don't shine.

    Since when is this at your apartment? I vote a bar on Vandy that has a happy hour

    I have a crappy Ziplock vaccum device to seal your food products -new in package...

    And quit being mean to Scarlett!!!

  • whynot_31
    whynot_31

    If Stella does not take it, I'll save it for you sweetie!

    ....pet the alpacas for me.

    Mamacita -

    Ain't no way, no how, this is going to be at my apartment. I was just saying that whoever wants the yogurt thing could pick it up there ...because it didn't look like there was a lot of interest in a in-person exchange, and I wanted to be fair to Scarlett and Stella.

    BTW, you should stop kissing up to Scarlett just because you are afraid of her. She's a mushball under all that rage.

    I've got DVDs of "Made of Honor" and "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" (and more) from a 19-year-old who inexplicably assumes everyone, of every gender, shares her taste in romantic comedies. I will relinquish them in exchange for you revealing a funny and/or awkward story from a past (or current) romance. And a beer.

    Where in PH? I could come tomorrow in the day? Is that too late?

  • whynot_31

    Stella, see your PM.

    Scarlett - it looks like you are going to lose.

    Readers - Scarlett and I know each other in real life. ...but she also lost fair and square due to her Alpaca love.

    Returning to the topic at hand, will there be an in person foist-a-thon this year or not?

    Mama's idea of having this at a some place like SODA on Vandy is a good one.

  • scarlett
    scarlett

    Whynot- we do NOT know each other irl!!! And I am NOT a ball of mush! You will pay!!!and leave Mama alone- she may talk smack about me behind my back but she is so sweet to my face!

  • whynot_31

    Let's review the potential attractions so far:

    a. Yogurt thing (gone)

    b. Hare Krishna cookbook

    c. Vacuum seal bag thing.

    d. Sappy Romantic comedies loved by a 19 year old.

    e. Scarlett pummeling Whynot to prove she is not a mushball.

    P.S. "Maid of Honor" would be a good title for a porn flick.

    What? Whoa, not, even ask your nemesis Whynot..

    Mama-

    Great idea.

    Scarlett-

    Please list your favorite porn flick titles.

    (other readers are welcome to post as well)

    DH-

    you are right. This movie sounds lousy. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Made_of_Honor

    Wha? I want the yogurt machina.

    ...but I got all good-to-great gifts this year, so I've got nothin' to foist.

  • scarlett
    scarlett

    Oooooo!!! Ok I like Harry Twatter and Maid of Honor - which is actuaLly a beastiality flic about a horse named Honor. I lurve these plays on words. "Tangled" didn't even need a translation but DAMN don't we all need brazilians or at least a trim from time to time?

  • whyfi

    The worst part of Made of Honor is the fact that a cupcake bakery played a prominent role and got me very excited to try this great NYC cupcake spot... only to learn that, even worse than being totally fictional, said bakery is in L-fuckin'-A.

    Wife says Patrick Dempsey is dreamy.

    I have nothing to foist that is new, however I do have a handful of lightly used dog clothes which the Brunito has outgrown. Think size xxxxxs for a hampster around 3-4lbs. Eerything is in great condition.

    In cleaning up the living room I also came across notecards my mom bought that she thought were the first letter of my name. Sadly, they "W." So, whatchuwant, whynot? Who else can I foist them on?

  • whynot_31
    whynot_31

    Does the W look like an M when upside down? This could increase the number of people willing to take it.

    Times are tough, gotta innovate.
