Christmas Card Exchange 2017 Edition: Sign-ups are CLOSED!
OK, OK, out of those three, I lean most strongly towards Star Wars. All four of 'em.
*random voice* But aren't there like sev-
*me* LALALALAALA LIGHTSABER NOISES I HEAR NOTHING!
(machete/moviebob order ftw)
I would argue that the former has been in common parlance far longer...Even though most would make the distinction betweena TrekKIE and a TrekKER, these days
Right, Firefly. There's not a lot of Firefly themed stuff I can print out that's small enough to be sent with a card, alas. Pretty much all I've been able to find is models of Serenity and her shuttles that are far too large to fit into an envelope. And some pretty awesome life-size models of Vera. Edit: Ok, I've found a couple of things. Add Browncoat to the official list of "Which fandoms".
I've got plenty of FF goodies, but most of them are too big to include in a card -- Been subbing to their lootcrate since it was first announced. That, and most of the stuff I'm willing to part with has already been donated to a FF charity auction I actually know a guy who makes micro-sized weapons and such, I just can't afford to get THAT many of them. Plus, ya know, it'd probably take him 6 months to make that many tiny little Veras
I can probably find some cool stuff to print out. I may be able to make my own cards, as cardstock is something I *can* get a hold of.

So, opt out officially closes today. I'll send out the list sometime this weekend. I just need to fill in my label template, and, well, my ear hurts and I don't feel like it tonight.
I'll post a note here when it's been sent.
I don't go in for ancient wisdom I don't believe just 'cause ideas are tenacious It means that they're worthy - Tim Minchin, "White Wine in the Sun"
The list is in PDF format, formatted for use with Avery 8160 address labels (1x2.63-inch labels, 30 per sheet). Since there are only 19 of us, I put some fun stuff in the blank spots.
It is coming from my personal Gmail address and the subject line is "Customers Suck! 2017 Christmas Card Exchange Address List." If you don't see it, check your spam folder. If it's not there send me a PM and I will resend it. If you have trouble with the file, let me know and I can send it in Word or Excel format if necessary.
Please remember to keep the list private. Thank you!

I managed to receive it no problem this year :P...and I managed to screw up everyone's system by not having a nice simple number-street-town combination
