Greeting Card Fun

Re-creation of a greeting card being sold in the Morris Center under "Her Birthday":



Front: "I thought I would get you a six pack for your birthday."


My first reaction: "A greeting card promoting pornography being sold at BYU?" But then I opened it up.


Inside: "Here you go. Happy Birthday!"

My second reaction: "Oh phew! I thought this card was about sex, but it's just about alcohol."

Here's my idea for a card that might be a good idea to sell at, let's say, the Cannon Center:



Front: For your birthday, let's smoke this joint!




Inside: Let's fire'em up!

You thought the card was about drugs, but it is actually about violent murder! Joke's on you!

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Beautifully done, as always. When I was in the MTC, I found a card with the silhouette of a woman... not wearing anything... behind a translucent sheet... that said, "I like it when you're in my dreams..." and you opened it and it said, "But I like it better when you're in my arms." It basically made me laugh so hard to find it in the MTC that I bought it immediately and sent it to my boyfriend.

Now, if I were to send a card to that same person, it would say, "I'm happy that you're not kissing me..." and then you open it and it says, "But I'd be happier if you weren't kissing men."

Hi. Limon. You're brilliant.

I think limon and cicada should get Hallmark to start marketing their products.

That was the best laugh I've had all day (all week!)

I think Hallmark already has a job. Remember the good old days when we all worked together?

Limon, you and Cicada could make millions... laugh. I don't know if anyone would buy the cards, but they sure would laugh in the store!

If you don't mind, instead of commenting, I'll just keep laughing.

I read this seconds before we were going to have family prayer. Sort of ruined that experience for me.

Also, I'm not sure we're supposed to be laughing that hard on Sunday.

My tummy hurts.

I kept thinking I'd commented on this one, but it turns out I didn't because I was busy picking myself up off the floor. Seriously, I think I did a hyena bark when I saw the "let's blow this joint" bit.

Very funny...slightly redeems you from your last post.

cicada: I am glad that you can relate to this strangely fortunate experience.

ambrosia: no, you!

coop: seeing them laugh in the store would be payment enough. As long as I could buy groceries with those laughs.

th.: keep on laughing! I can almost afford a loaf of bread!

dg: sorry to ruin family prayer. blame BYU.

nemesis: a hyena bark? I think I'd like to hear that.

redlaw: I hope someday I live down the fact that I am a man.

Limon,

Just as an update, this post was so good that I've started telling people about it:

"And then! He put a picture of a guy with a gun! And then! He said! You thought it was about doing illegal drugs, but it's actually about violent murder! It was sooooo funny!"

I second that.
