--- Quote from: Computer-Lab in Basement on Mon, 22 December 2014, 12:25:31 ---When I was 5 years old, on Christmas Eve, I could have SWORN I heard the sound of reindeer hooves on the roof. I was super excited, because I KNEW Santa was leaving us presents.
Once I got old enough to know better, I looked back on that memory and decided that it must have been my father on the roof that Christmas Eve, making me believe that it was Santa.
Then about a year ago, I asked my father about this; if he actually was on the roof that Christmas.
He was not.
Which leads me to two possible conclusions:
- My dad was very drunk that Christmas Eve and managed to find his way onto the roof, without falling off and breaking his neck, and have no memory of doing so.
- Santa is real.
I still have not decided which one I believe to be true...

Your neighbor was very drunk and went on the roof of the wrong house! you should ask him!

But if I do, and he confirms, I will be confirming the non-existence of Santa! :eek:
I'm not sure if I'm ready for that just yet...

Getting to spend Christmas with my dad's mother. She lives only 2 and a half hours away, but it was the first and only Christmas she spent at my house. It was great getting to wake up and open presents with her on Christmas morning and to hang out with her over the Holidays.
Thanks for doing this Martin!

Thanks for the opportunity Martin!
My memorable Christmas has to be when my entire family fell ill on Christmas Eve! Since I was the only one in the house that wasn't ill, I spent that evening and Christmas day running about getting various medicines and comforts to make the day for them all bearable. Then to top it all off, my Christmas dinner included a fine array of toppings on a baked potato... All of this happened when I was 10 years old and really did change the way i saw Christmas. Its still an awesome time but appreciate spending time with my family more so than the presents .
Anyway thanks for all the cool keycap designs over the years and have a lovely christmas/new year :)

Thank you for doing a giveaway~
Since I grew up in an Asian household, we didn't really celebrate the whole "meaning of Christmas" besides opening presents.
It was mostly a time for my dad to kinda chill with the family since he only really gets days off on big holidays, and he usually gets work backed up around Christmas.
But the most memorable was probably around... 4 or 5 years ago? I woke up to find a brand new Wii and my dad waiting for me and my sister. We ended up playing together the rest of the day (mom doesn't really like games).
But again, thanks for holding a giveaway, and a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to you GeekHackers out there! GL to everyone~
