I'm just curious. it seems like a very female thing. I mean single men, not the cards your wife signs your name to.

    Not usually.. except to immediate family. I normally forget birthday cards too... everyone gets a present but I forget to buy the card and only realise at the last second.

    I've done so for at least 3 or 4 years now. And for my close board friends, I usually include a bootleg or video bootleg along with the Christmas card.

    so your friend sends cards with a picture of himself? Interesting...I've always wondered what would happen if I did that...I'm always getting cards with photos of couples and their kids and even dogs, but never seen one of just a person.

    not a chance in hell. what the fuck is the point? they read it and throw it away. waste of a stamp and paper. unless they're one of those lame and desperate folks who keeps all the cards on the mantle to show off to visitors how many friends they have. i hate sending cards. if i see you, i'll say happy holidays. if i can't be troubled to see you, i'll call. if i can't be troubled to call, you're not worth the time, effort, and money it takes to make the damn card.

    bah-fucking-humbug :)

    haha now that is a photo card I wouldn't mind getting! I hate getting all those cards with people's families...like I get it and I'm like "ok, what am I supposed to do with this now, frame it?" or "oh ok, the kid is now a year older. fantastic. I thought she may have stayed the same age as last year. good to see she progressed."

    While I'm not single, I usually send out electronic cards only. Why waste all of that paper only for the recipient to throw it away on the 26th?

    If i get someone a gift card i put it in a holiday card and hand it to them.

    I do get holiday cards for my co workers as a small thank you for their help.

    do i go out and buy a box of holiday cards and send them to folks? Absolutely not.

    I'm not a big fan of cards either. I've never really sent them out and I was considering doing it this year and it just occurred to me that if I were a guy I probably wouldn't feel any need to at all, but it's some sort of etiquette lady-like thing for girls. Maybe I'll just do electronic, I have more people's email addies than real addies anyway.

    I would love to make a really pretentious card with my picture on it. Something along the lines of me in a smoking jacket, sitting on a chair holding a cigar or pipe and a dachsand (sp?) or bloodhound at my feet.
    I'm so dangerous I smoke dynamite.
