The 2018 Merry Christmas / Happy Holiday Thread!

[fw3]

Just want to extend out a very Merry Christmas and happy holiday wish to everyone on the forum.

 

Hard to imagine that over five years ago, many of us were indulging in GTAV and GTAO for the very first time, 

and that we're still going on and on about it. Kind of mind blowing, really.

Alas, I'm grateful for being part of such a unique, like-minded clique of diverse gamers whom I get and who get me. Well, mostly.

Have a wonderful, safe, and happy day, and may you be surrounded by powerful weapons and vehicles to make your day shine bright!

Keeping on topic: 

Today, in the spirit of giving, I'll be delivering Chariot Romero Hearses to unsuspecting players today, as it's the only way to really "gift" these days!

And if you've got any other ideas on how to spread holiday cheer around Los Santos today, I'd love to hear 'em! Cheers!

[Volganor]

Thank you for the wholesome thread and for your continued work in keeping discussion inside this section alive and varied, as we went through some very dry times, @fw3!

 

And Merry Christmas plus a happy new year once again, everyone! Thank you for another fun year among you.

Happy holidays fellas!

I just would like to thank everyone in the forums, specially the mods, because like OP mentioned, I feel like people here are so passionate and I feel like many around here have the same relationship and mindset as I do towards R* and GTA. Like myself I’ve found here lots of people who truly cherish all the dedication and hard work that R* employees put into their games. I really respect this community and I’m happy to be part of the forums and grateful for all the love and fun. So many nice people here, so many laughts I had reading random stuff (yesterday I had such a nice time and lots of giggles reading @Giantsgiants thread about Poppy Michaels - you sir are a legend), its like a distant family or some dream that we can’t quite remember but we know it was awesome. Thanks everyone! Merry christmas!!

 

edit: just thought of this song lol!

in spoiler because its kinda off topic. Its also part of what I am so here it is.

Merry Christmas and a Happy Holidays fellow forumers, grinders and gamers alike. It's been ofacially one year since I made the jump to PS4 from Peasant station 3 and I regret nothing,  the game is everything and much more than it was before and should have been, even if gunrunning and Doomsday took things to the Hollywood degree the game is stillocated more fun and varied than before, when you just enjoy the setting and don't grind too much it's still the best.  I just hope we can keep finding ways to stay interested now that both Red Dead Redemption 2 and it's own Online are going to be Rockstar's sole focus for the coming years. keep on rolling, rocking and trolling.

Festive Wishes y'all! 

But I love this community, even more than the game(s) that spawned it. Here's to many more years! 

[Lonely-Martin]

Hope all are having a good holiday spell all around.

Present wise, this was a good year both IRL and in GTA, I love the Clique and surprisingly the Atomizer too. In real life I got a Ruger .22 rifle, 500 rounds and a nice cleaning kit. You guys get anything cool?

I got a real life Kifflom t-shirt...

 

...and the proverbial pants, socks, and smellies, from the kids all dad's love. (Among some other bits). 

 

And plenty of Captain Morgan's.

^That's awesome! I forgot there even was one... I got the Blue Class Of '98 baseball t last year for Xmas, so I have that and the pot leaf camo R* logo shirt from the same series. As dorky as it is, it's fun to have matching clothes with your GTA character.

 

Does the IRL Kifflom shirt have the birthmark/epsilon messiah guy on the back? I'll probably get one regardless, just have always been curious.

It's got the line 'The tract is not yet written' near the top but nothing else. Flipping magic, lol.

Merry Christmas.

 

 

Got a couple of Steam gift cards, VISA gift card, bottle of brandy, various typical sundries.

[Mach1bud]

Merry Christmas guys. 

 

I got rolling knee pads (Google it), Home Depot gift card, a nose hair trimmer, etc. Buncha manly stuff.

 

Was a good day. Kids are happy.

[gtafan26]

Woke up this morning with a Boxing Day hangover and my mouth tasting like an ashtray. Had a good Christmas though and I'm trying to gather up some enthusiasm to do it all again today.

 

I hope you're all having a good time, whatever you're doing. I'm genuinely grateful for all the cool people I've had chance to interact with through the forum over these last two years.
