Entry: Anti-valentine Saturday, February 12, 2005



I spent some time this week loitering around the card aisle of a neighborhood drugstore searching for an appropriate Valentine for my husband. I am hardly one to be un-sentimental, but even I was audibly wretching after reading verse after verse of syrupy nonesense. Some of these cards literally embarassed me. My embarassment erupted into to annoyance as I realized that a flipping CARD was causing me to blush and sputter as I shoved each schmaltzy paper greeting back into its holder.

I have found the solution to this saccharin dilemma.

Although significantly less than in the spirit of the "holiday" (I give wide berth to that classification), some of these e-cards are pretty stinkin' amusing.

Hubby already sent me the one about dying in a room smelling of cat pee...how ROMANTIC! *sigh*

Try finding one for an Ex that neither is too mushy or gives the wrong Message. Kansas City is the home of Hallmark Cards and each day I ride by it wondering what kind of people write that crappy sentimental "schmaltz". It scares me to think they may be in the checkout line beind and infront of Me at the market and what can dinner conversation be like?

I wanted to approach Hallmark about creating a card division dedicated to Nasty Greeting cards for people you hate and for ex's. I too send cards on-line and prefer www.kinkycards.com (go figure)
