I want to do some sort of massive and ridiculous gift exchange thing for the Winter Avarice Festival. Some sort of secret-pal arrangement, one-time only, through the auspices of teh Intarweb (which I hear is shit, but I imagine that's just Sturgeon's Law* in action).

Anyway, this would probably involve sending me your address and a brief sort of description of things that you like/hate/are violently allergic to, letting me match you up with somebody, and then sending them a gift, and somebody else will send you a gift, and so on and so forth.

Of course, this only works if people want to play. Anybody want to play?


* Sturgeon's Law says "90% of everything is crap!". Thus far, it seems to be applicable on any scale, thus a natural law.

If you want to up the ante and be ambitious as well as clever, we did this for a year, starting at Christmas/Yule/Whatever, and did small things periodically throughout the year. It involved having the person's birthday, anniversary or other important date, etc. We revealed outselves, so to speak, at the next Christmas/Yule/Whatever. For a one time thing, you might set a price limit on that, so as not to discourage folks from participating due to finances.

Whatever. I'm in.

That would be ambitious. Maybe too ambitious. I will think upon it, and consult my demons.
