Battered? Divorced? Laid off? There's a card for that

When Hallmark Cards launched its line of "encouragement" cards addressing the topic of job loss, it did so in response to what consumers were saying they wanted...

On a much smaller scale, but with a greater emotional investment, Orange County entrepreneur Journey Light says she also is responding to a need with cards she has created about sensitive topics that include domestic violence, drug abuse, coming out and eating disorders...

Hallmark? Who?

[Between the Lines]

Roses are red
Violets are blue
You lost your job?
... that sucks.

Is there a card for “Gee, I heard your country’s Representative Republic has fallen and now you are in a Socialist hellhole where thugs dominate and genocide is likely, sorry about your luck”?

[TexasRepublic]

That doesn’t rhyme. You’ll have to do better than that! ;-)

[Lazamataz]

I heard your government fell,
And socialism is in,
I heard starvation’s there,
And everyone’s so thin,

You used to be so free,
So sorry ‘bout your luck,
But YOU said you voted for,
that Evil Obama F***.

**applause**, Laz! :-)

Bravo! Well Done! I knew you had it in you!
