"May you live long enough to shit yourself."

My dad is about to get a belated birthday card...

That tag line is enough for me to comment. Right on!

It's my father-in-law's birthday. I came this close to sending him the "I'll always think of you as someone older than me" one, and then thought better of it.

These are great (in a non-sarcastic way).

Some of those hit close to home. Ouch!

Cool. This card uses the same clip art as this strip by my buddy Rob Balder.

And this card uses the same clip art as this strip. I'll stop hunting now; clearly the SomeEcards people have the same clip art CD as Rob does. No big conspiracy here.

(I mainly just wanted to plug Rob's strip, I guess.)

Those are fantastic and uncomfortable-making. I especially like the forethought of including a "I'm sorry about the card I sent you from someecards.com." card.

"Dad, you've always been like a father to me."

Yup, dad's gettin' a thank you card.

I just sent one to Metafilter's own ac30.

They're pretty fucking great, those things.

Just the one I've been looking for.

The other day I sent my newlywed boss I'm happy for you and ashamed of being single. He was touched.

I was going to crack on Fain of Butt for plugging his friend, but this is actually pretty funny. Thanks FoB.

These are wonderful!

When you care enough to hit send give your friends' email to a random company with no obvious privacy or spam policy

They are pretty funny though. I'd send some to a pal's throwaway address, if I knew it or thought they checked it very much.

These are funny.

I noticed the clip-art from Get your war on, also. Where can I get my hands on said clip art? I've been wanting to doctor up some of my own in that style.

Hope me puhlease.

Why, oh why, is snark banned from Ask Mefi?
