Give Burdened People a Laugh Via Humorous Yule Cards
For many people, the Christmas holiday season is analogous to stress. Traffic and crowds often take people out of comfort zones as they scurry around trying to find and purchase Christmas gifts. They are spending lots of money. Time, already a precious commodity, gets even tighter during the holiday season. All that stress, though, can be relieved when they receive funny Christmas cards in the mail.
A personalized, humorous card sent by you could bring a smile to the face of a family member or friend!
That your sense of humor might not be universal is an important consideration when selecting which, or even if a funny card should be sent. Think of the other person and their sense of humor before electing to send a humorous card for Christmas. Only begin the selection of humorous Christmas cards if you know the intended recipient well enough to know what strikes their funny bone or if they’ll forgive you if you choose wrong.
There are several types of funny holiday cards. Common topics of such cards include:
- Kids
- Animals
- Famous people
Cards featuring Santa often depict him as some kind of culprit. For instance, many Christmas cards show Santa being handed a ticket for speeding. Some cards picture the visitor from the North trying to maintain ownership of some present or presents he really likes. The portly man’s stomach, too, is a target of many jabs from Ms. Claus.
It’s hard to go wrong when using humor about children. Unreasonable requests of Santa in letters written by children are great fodder for inclusion in Christmas cards. Picture Santa chomping on a cookie next to an empty glass of milk reading a letter that reads, “Dear Santa, If you put a bike under the Christmas tree I’ll give you the anecdote for the poison I put in the milk. The best of all possible children, Timmy.”
If the person on your list loves animals, you can make them laugh by dressing up your animal as Santa, putting a bow on the animal as if it were a present, or decorate the creature as a reindeer.
Public figures such as Barbara Streisand and Kobe Bryant are fair game for a humorous card as long as it’s done in good taste.
Whether you choose to create your own card or buy funny Christmas cards from the store, such a card can brighten someone’s stressful holiday season.
