Don't send funny greeting cards on birthdays or at Christmas. Save them for funerals, when their cheery effect is needed.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I squirrel away sealed greeting cards that people give me so I can open them later when I'm having a bad day.
I don't turn to greeting cards for wisdom and advice, but they are a fine reflection of the general drift of the culture.
I ignore Hallmark Holidays. And this comes from a guy who has sold a million Opus greeting cards.
Send out a cheerful, positive greeting, and most of the time you will get back a cheerful, positive greeting. It's also true that if you send out a negative greeting, you will, in most cases, get back a negative greeting.
I wrapped my Christmas presents early this year, but I used the wrong paper. See, the paper I used said 'Happy Birthday' on it. I didn't want to waste it so I just wrote 'Jesus' on it.
Each year, in my quaint efforts to send out paper holiday cards with personal messages, I probably discard one for every three I actually manage to put in the mail. The reason is that my handwriting is now less legible than it was when I was in the second grade.
Fortune cookies are a good idea. If the message is positive, it can make your day a little better.
I'm like the kid in kindergarten; I really do send valentines to everyone.
This is my saddest story: In grade school, they would have us open our Valentine's cards and read them out loud. I always sent cards to myself because nobody else did.
I'm interested in humor, and greeting cards just happen to be a perfect medium for my message. They're accessible to everyone, and thanks to all the advances that have been made by environmentally conscientious printers, I can get my message across while keeping my carbon footprint relatively small.
