I had to restart my video because I got a phone call after I got through the first gift (sorry to my SS!!). I hate photographing myself never mind videoing myself so I'm a little awkward  :lol I also wasn't sure if I should say my SS's name or keep it a secret so I didn't read off what was in the card, and I was considering reading off the Christmas Vacation cards but didn't want to offend anyone or their kids if they were listening  :lol Seriously though, this was fun, these gifts make me laugh. Spoilers in tiny text: Jingle was my Secret Santa and his wrapping is crazy good, and if you aren't familiar with Christmas Vacation and don't understand the gifts, shame on you.

EDIT: OMG I just realized at the end I said "look at all this trash" but in the video you can't see the destruction of all the wrapping paper. I'm not talking about the gifts!!  :lol

Awesome!

What's with those pants? :lol
would have thought the same thing but seeing the OP was TAC i immediately thought Maiden or DT related
Winger Theater Forums........or WTF.  ;D
TAC got a higher score than me in the electronic round? Honestly, can I just drop out now? :lol

Don't knock the Guardians of the Galaxy pants, bro. Mad comfy. That's my "look" at home.  :lol

Great Vids!!

Tricia.....I don't know how you trained your cats to erupt in a scary...intimidating 'monster' growl/fight at the exact moment the 'Monster' game was revealed but great job!  :tup   :lol 

Victor.....kudos to you for being able to harness the patience to do those puzzles. I've never attempted one. And, that interior brick wall looks killer! I love that 'old' architecture/brick look.

Mike.....your just as even keel and well spoken as your posts! Loved your SS's theme  :lol  He seemed to have nailed it for ya. BUT....it'd be cool to see those scenes laid out and read your SS's captions. So...you have a project to do  :biggrin:

The videos are flowing in and...

The cats of DTF strike again, that was hilarious  :lol

What's with those pants? :lol

 :lol and that Trump toiler paper seems to make the rounds

Victor, good luck with the puzzles.  Those look tough, but both look pretty cool too.

Only if you wear Marvel-themed pajama pants, or at least ones with shopping carts on them. Those are your only options.

@ Kattleox's SS:  Where were the Trump steaks?

@ VMadera: Being able to put that note where you lost sound is above my video editing skills. 

Big shout out to Kattleox and VMadera joining this year and getting their video out instead of waiting for the vets to post. :tup

Alright, I recorded this Saturday but had some audio issues. Very awkward video as I hate filming myself.

I almost missed this! Those are really cool, especially the space one! I hate filming myself too, so props for making the vid :biggrin:

Last year your daughter suggested using the cat to open the box.  This year the cat took up her suggestion.

And now it is our job to find worse things than forks to open packages.

My thoughts precisely.  Next year, someone get Splent a tripod or phone case with a stand.

Great vids so far! I’m still debating where/how I want to open mine. My gift that I’m sending out just arrived this morning and I’m standing in line at the post office to ship it out. It’s a nightmare here with people arguing. Some guy brought in a Rambo knife to cut tape and boxes to make a custom box, and it’s making some people nervous.  :corn
