Morons. It brightens up my day every time I read about a company that tries to push the PR envelop and gets bit in the ass for doing so. Maybe they should concentrate on something more pressing like not putting so much fucking glitter on their cards, people are going to find the littlest things to be offended by anyway.

And if they used "don we now our gay apparel" they'd have the bible-thumpers on their ass for pushing a gay agenda.

Just goes to show that both the bible thumpers and PC crowed are just as ignorant as each other.

That's a pressing item, or is my sarcasm meter off?

Does anyone actually read greeting cards?

1. Open envelope
2. Hold card open side down
3. Shake card
4. Profit?


Does anyone under the age of seventy buy that sweater?

Reminds me of Dana Carvey.

"Why did you have to use the word gay?"

 

[JulesMaximus]

Words cannot express how little I care about this.

I don't care that Hallmark changed the words nor do I care that people are upset about it.

Meh...I blame the homosexual community for co-opting the word "gay."

Once upon a time, gay meant happy...but no longer.

Just because Happy lived with six other guys doesn't mean he was gay.

 

[GagHalfrunt]

Once upon a time, gay meant happy...but no longer.

Now it means "Fabulous!", so not really all that different.

Once upon a time, gay meant happy...but no longer.

Meh, I still use it to mean happy. I like the confused and slightly worried look I get.

WelshBloke - "You look gay, what you been up to? "
Worried workmate -" errr... Ummm... OK?... Nothing... What? "
WelshBloke - :sly:

What sweater? It's a holiday tree ornament.

greeting cards are worthless.

only paid item that you want to throw away 5 seconds after getting it.

You know what's fun about greeting cards - back when I turned 50, I started reading every happy 50'th birthday card in the store. My gosh, what a lot of idiots who write birthday cards. Every so often there was an actual entertaining one.

 

[Mixolydian]

Gay this, gay that...

I really don't care.

Too much political correctness does bother me a little though. So maybe I do care? I don't know.

You moron!

Do you honestly believe bible-thumpers dont know the freaking lyrics to christmas carols?

THINK NEXT TIME!!!!

Having suffered through many a mumbled carol singing I can confirm that many, many bible thumpers don't know the lyrics.

Oh little town of Bethesda
How still we see thee lie
something some something mmm mmm mmm
mmm mmm mmm mmmm mmm

I don't think bible-thumpers know anything.
