shirt size small (medium if they run small), I can play vinyl, cd and cassette, but prefer vinyl. anything weird I'll appreciate. no food allergies, unless you count nickel, mosquitoes or sunscreen.
I like fuzz, reverb, weird delays, vibratos, wacky and noisy effects, and overdrives. I also like homemade noisemakers, and oscillators. local goodies are always a plus. also if you include a small gift for my cat I'll love you infinitely more.
also I feel like I should mention that I absolutely hate phasers and flangers. and distortion.

Woo!
Shirt size: small/medium
Food: gluten free and vegetarian (considering going vegan so perhaps that...). Fucking love coffee. Possibly also worth noting that I'm more into savoury food than candy in general. But I still love good candy.

I love cooking a lot so anything related to that is fun
Music: CD and digital are good, other formats not as convenient.
Books: yes. Love sci-fi but also into all forms of non genre fiction and non fiction. Always love discovering new and different things.
Gear: I don't have much GAS for any more fuzz/dirt or pitch shifting pedals at the moment. I have that covered I think. However stalk me and if you find something you think is a wonderful exception I'll probably love it! Not listing everything though, stalk harder!

I also like synths, drum machines and recording as well as pedals. Next project is a tabletop synth/noise/drum machine setup so cool things for that would be greatly appreciated too...
(Yes Satan I do keep editing this as I think of things to say. Sorry! I can get a little obsessive about accuracy)

Word. Import taxes are poopy in general, but during the holidays I would love to have a little money to spend on my family as well

It's probably illegal for you to send alcohol to anyone in the United States.
This might be a place to theoretically discuss whether we like to drink alcohol...
Also, if you're going to ship anything in glass, protect it obsessively and isolate it from pedals or other gear.

Totally true.
But I did once have some Trve Brewing from Co. sent to me by Khemmis Ben. It ruled.
wishlist related:
shirt size: medium
music format: vinyl is cool because i love packaging, digital is the next best thing.
treats: i like savory snacks. hot sauce. coffee. my dog also likes snacks but they should be au natural without weird grains and shit. ask the pet store what crunchy earthy hippies buy. my dog eats that.
pretty damn good on fuzz/dirt. but i'll say no to NOTHING.
love reverb/delay and weird. i'll try anything once.
you can send me beer from your local places but maybe send it separately? trying not to have a pedal halted because there's some weird brews sloshing around.
love jrpgs and rpgs in general.
like fantasy and swords and a touch of sci-fi here and there.
read a lot. comics/graphic novels are cool, too.
you can stalk me on instagram or facebook, too. i don't facebook much. instagram enough.

Shirts/cardigans: medium and black.
Treats: coffee yes. Red licorice yes. Chocolate yes. I don't eat meat. Who's gonna send meat in the mail?
Vinyl
Pedals: surprise me. The only part of my pedalboard that changes is the dirt section which is mainly overdrive based. I love overdrives. Of course I like all pedals and other stuff. Especially Volca shit. FM... mmmmm.

Medium clothing all the way
MP3s and CDs are the most convenient, but everything is cool to stick on the shelf
Treats; Cookies, Chocolate, Peanut butter, Licorice Black/Red/Purple and Coffee. I'm more into Baked goodies more than Candies
Alcohol; I'm very partial to, Whisk(e)y totally is my thang.
Pedals, i'm happy with anything. And
I will keep whatever it is for ever and ever and ever.
I also collect Figures and other dweeby shit

I can wear any shirt size, but prefer L as I like them to have some length.
I wanna hear your music.
I like pinkish purplish gear that is sort of glitchy/stuttery/pitchshifty.
Stalk me.

Lessee...
Dos:
Musical formats: CDs and digital formats are ideal. I love the packaging for records, but lack the equipment to play them... so include a download code if it's an album (and make sure it has really badass art?). Genre-wise I'm pretty open... not so much into harsh noise or black metal, but I'll give just about anything a shot.
Shirt size: large.
Food type: dark chocolate makes me happy. Regional weird snacks that can't spoil in the mail. Hot sauce!
Books: Love me some sci-fi and metafiction a la Matt Ruff or that Pynchon guy.
Pedal gifts: something weird loud and skronky. No muffs unless they're made unusual or super gnarly. Still haven't found a superfuzz variant that I've really bonded yet (that said, I'm still looking). Modulation / verb / delay should also be weird if that's on the table.
If you do crafty stuff or arty stuff or make mixes or whatever, those are always greatly appreciated. You don't need to spend a lot on me, baby - just put some thought into it!
Don'ts:
Nudie pix, drugs, alcohol, or anything I'd need to worry about my 9-yr old stumbling across.

eyyyy
shirt size: medium
consumption: vegetarian, no candy,

hot stuff long as it isn't crazy, can't take decongestants. i know everyone loves to give those as a gift. i'm sorry.
music: CD, digital,

vinyl, no metal or hip hop or classical please, i'm way too picky about those.
movies: i watch one almost every night. mainly sci-fi nerd but am into whatever long as it isn't a documentary or some sitcom crap...
books: only if you're buying me a flight to somewhere cool. too ADD for books unless i'm trapped. (please don't trap me)
gear: +1 on stalking me. i play synths & drums too.
pain in the ass: obviously that's me...

All my preferences are in last year's thread.
Stalk me for my current pedal lustings.
