I really enjoy the tongue-in-cheek ones, ones with some humor in them. My ex, Gary, sends those out from time to time - I read them at Amy's. Great remarks about one of his sons approaching driving age and having his eye on (of course) some car with great SPEED capabilities -- as if! Give me those kind, anyday!jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02598544917785126150noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3803801517332763895.post-48348147372520021532009-12-21T15:19:48.687-05:002009-12-21T15:19:48.687-05:00The brag cards are the worse expecially when you k...The brag cards are the worse expecially when you know the people they are bragging about and your like, Okay, its nice that he was the sixth smartest in his grade but why are they leaving his child out, oh, that must not be a brag, since he is only 16,gotcha!"<br /><br />I got all of those cards this year, execpt the dirty ones!!<br /><br />Have a very merry Christmas<br />Big Hugs from Cole and me<br />SaraSarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05747765696446486573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3803801517332763895.post-32589776127028864232008-12-14T17:38:00.000-05:002008-12-14T17:38:00.000-05:00Too funny, but you forgot the fill-in-the-blanks c...Too funny, but you forgot the fill-in-the-blanks cards.

But come to think of it, it would make no difference. Their green credentials are nil anyway. I try to hold off sending cards for as long as possible, and a lot of mine go in the box at the Sailing Club rather than in the post, so the end of next week will be fine. I just make sure that those who send me cheap and nasty get the best, shiniest ones to make them feel guilty, and that the senders of religious cards get one referring to Yule logs, as pagan as I can find.

No one has popped over to drink coffee, do laundry or use my computer yet today lol~in an eye roll sort of way!) Too Funny and Accurate...
