I drink with them.
But for survival and enjoyment I eat organisms of at least 4 and possibly 5 different kingdoms.
I am truly omnivorous.

I don't drink, hardly at all, anymore. The last time I went into a pub was probably two or three years ago...

How do you take in your fluids then?

You know you don't have to feed them, if they aren't your kids.
Get them sugared up and send them away.
Although I have to admit when I'm feeling a bit dumb, I go to Q&A and I quickly realize, I'm fine. 
It was broke, so I fixed it.

You can't possibly be?!?!?
It's not in human nature to be content with what you have.
How would progress be made if it was?

Of course I can!
I have worked hard to get to the point I am at: More money would mean compromises between the other elements in my life. Since the balance I have works, would it not just be self defeating to want major changes?

I was informed I was getting an 8.5% rise, but I was wrong.
It was 11%
I suppose I can't complain.

Is obviously not world peace. That would only last for a few days and what good would that be to me?
Clients or managers that can explain their requirements? Santa Clause might be able to make reindeers fly and he has elves working for him, but this? No way even he can pull this one off, no one can!
Improved health or fitness sounds nice, but that would be me giving myself a christmas present because this can't be achieved without me actually doing something about it. So no, let's not go that way.
My company sold for squillions and me getting a part of it? Since 'squillion' is not an existing number and I don't want to take the risk of it turning out to be only a couple of millions also let's not wish for this one.
Stress? I don't even know the word. I am a relaxed guy by nature.
That means I can also rule out the more time to relax with friend and family. Another drawback to that one is that if they don't wish the same I'll be left all alone.
Better work environment? Maybe, I could use some colleagues who actually know what they're doing. This could also mean another job or career, but in all honesty my co-workers are a nice bunch and I could do a lot worse.
Already getting the raise (and a bonus) for new year, so that's out of the picture too.
Having ruled out all options I would say this survey is missing an option... Salma Hayek! (Would've said BACON, but I'm a veggie). But Salma is some meat I'd do 
Or how about getting those 'squillion' points in CP rep.? In that case it wouldn't matter if it wasn't all that much. Rep doesn't buy me anything anyway.
So that's basically all I want for christmas. Oh yeah, and this one[^], the ultimate Star Wars LEGO set EVER!

...is to be allowed to spend a part of my work time doing private projects - like the Google employees...
That would be neat.
