Roll Call: New Year Celebration Edition

It's almost a New Year and tradition dictates that we do some sort of celebration to recognize that the Earth has orbited the sun once again before we get to the part of making resolutions that we observe religiously for about two full weeks.

So, how are my fellow citizens of Gamespot planning on observing the holiday?

obvious title TBH

EDIT:first reply in RC twice in a row

You jelly?

Happy soon to be new year.

Wasting my life away as usual. Gotta keep up the tradition.MistressMinako

I may be hitting a new year's party with some coworkers tomorrow. Both a good and bad thing if you know what i mean.

REALLY? I totally would have guessed the other thing. :cool:

I might stay up, but I won't be watching the ball drop, It's the dumbest tradition ever.

Nah. Actually rarely see any of them these days. My company decided about two years back that they could save a buttload of money not giving us offices/cubicles at all and just having us work out of our homes. That way they save a bunch of phone, internet, office space, electricity, etc.

A lot of people complained about it, but for me it's perfect. I no longer have to pretend to be working when I'm not, can have my non-work computer up and doing whatever I want on that while monitoring my work laptop for anything urgent, and no longer have to pretend that I want to be social with some of the people that I didn't like.

Granted, I do miss some of the people I DO like, but, really, how many jobs out there can you play video games when you're not busy rather than trying to find ways to keep yourself occupied?

I mean in general, not just new years tradition, all holidays.

I'll probably spend my new year's with family.

I feel bad for him whenever he comes on to host. I understand he's been doing it for years, but I think he's earned a break.

He really has.

But I won't turn my back on 'em if he still has the will to do it.

If he still has the heart to do it, then by all means. I just wish they'd get somebody else besides Ryan Seacrest to host. That bastard just irks me to no end.Hallenbeck77

At least he's easier on the eyes.

If only we could take Ryan's youth and give it to Dick...

Heloe, is anybody in there?KiIIyou

I'll probably be playing games of some sort, probably Skryim or BF3.

That's not my pickle, Is we in a jar again?KiIIyou

[QUOTE="Overlord93"][QUOTE="judog1"] I wonder how many people will be here on midnight New Years day. I predict that there will be two people that post within the first two minutes of 2012. Although, my calculations will fail because it is hard to take into account the different time zones of users on here.BranKetra

^^^Very much intended =D

[QUOTE="BranKetra"][QUOTE="Overlord93"] Time zones are annoying, they ruin all the fun.chaoscougar1

^^^Very much intended =D

Oh wow.

About time there was a new RC. Now I can sleep in peace.

Aiight, off to work! If I don't talk to anyone before your New Year, have a wonderful one and talk to you soon =Dchaoscougar1
