People
used to joke that Hallmark had a card for every
occasion. But we know the truth. The US-based
Someecards.com
is where to go for all your holiday and non-holiday
needs. I once dumped a guy with the "Take some
time to be alone with your penis" card, which
was - from what I hear - exactly what he did.

Someecards
is possibly one of the best wastes of a working hour
known to us, and we at UJ have made a business out of
surfing the net. Now, you can go public with their witticisms
with their new T-shirt range from Busted
Tees. My trainer's getting the "Thought you should
know I totally busted my pecs today" shirt, while my
crackberry-addicted ex will be receiving the "I'm terrified
of being offline".
Myself, I was caught between getting the "I'm seeking
a complete stranger for a drunken, sloppy public make
out" (but that might be a little difficult for a bloke
to read when he is cross-eyed drunk) and the entirely
obvious "I have no STDs" shirt, but then realised the
US to English translations might be confusing. (For
the record, make out = snog and STDs = STIs. Now you
know.)
