("it's a card! let it go! what harm can it do? just shut up already!") i know, i know. but the language used is negative. when you associate negative language with humor, humor becomes negative and people think it's OK because "it was just a joke!" sure. teach your children that being a little bitch to people "because it's funny" is a good way to make other little bitchy friends. then they grow up bitchy. and then they make cards and t-shirts and bumper stickers and transform their entire language because "it's just a joke." but whatever. i don't have to buy it, and neither do you guys. but of course, it's entirely up to you. hey taylor-- there's an easy solution to your screaming child problem.. stop going to wal-mart. you may argue, then, that screaming kids are unavoidable and wal-mart is just one place they exist. but at least in other department stores they have the decency to say "thank-you" after they throw a rolling fit on the ground. wal-mart deletes any value people (kids) have in life because everything is readily cheap and accessible. but anyway.. this is not a post about wal-mart.

You see this at Walmart all the time. Kids SCREAMING their heads off and Mom just looking at all the different shampoos. I swear they have screaming kids on their payroll because there's always at least one in the store at all times. Loved "your screaming kids aren't cute!" You see this at Walmart all the time.

Have you seen their latest one, for someone who's just had a hysterectomy? "Glad you've had a hysterectomy. You've lately looked a nervous wreck to me. Bet you're glad the plumbing's missing and now you're up to more than kissing" Don't you just hate Hallmark cards? Have you seen their latest one, for someone who's just had a hysterectomy?

"Glad you've had a hysterectomy.
You've lately looked a nervous wreck to me.
Bet you're glad the plumbing's missing
and now you're up to more than kissing"
