And I wonder why I am buying fewer and fewer cards every year… | Fetch My Flying Monkeys
Everyone needs a fleet of flying monkeys to rip the stuffing out of the annoying people in their lives
— Laura

Every year after Thanksgiving I purchase Christmas cards that I send out to my friends so I can mail them on the last day of November. I don’t buy them by the box because those are generally really boring “Fa La La Merry Christmas” with boring, glittery elves and Santas and shit on them. My friends have grown to expect a card from me that says “Laura sent this” which usually involves something inappropriate for the season. I also sign them with crazy things like “You need to start being a better friend to me, Motherfucker.” I just make sure I call them names somewhere in there so they know they’re special to me. Anyway, since I’m not buying each of you a card, I thought I’d take a photo of this year’s card and post it here for all of you.

  4. Mr. Bingley says:

    Not that I’m in any way shape or form implying that this is a Sign from the Big Guy but you should Beware!

    *** Well welcome and thank you. When you send out your cards just cuss everybody and it will make you feel better. Srsly, try it. It puts me in the holiday mood. ~Laura

  13. Erik says:

    We need more Christmas cards with zombies on them. Saying stuff like “I wish I was eating you this Christmas.”
    Or a zombie Christmas carol book, but someone beat me to it: http://www.amazon.com/Its-Beginning-Look-Like-Zombies/dp/0061956430
    *** YES! Merry Brainzzzzz, shit like that. Deck the Halls with blood and grey matter, fa la la la la la .~Laura

  14. garnet says:

    I love that card! I want to send it to all my friends!
    *** Be sure to cuss them out on it. ~Laura

  15. karen says:

    Merry Christmas, Laura! From one of the Sonsabitches!
    *** And a Happy New Year, let’s hope. ~Laura

  16. Teresa says:

    I’ll pay you to do my Christmas cards for me. Yours are brilliant.
    *** I would do it! I really would. ~Laura

  17. Joe the Blog Stalker says:

    That’s one of the best Christmas cards I ever got. Thanks.
    *** You’re welcome. ~Laura

  18. Brea says:

    Love the card, now I want to cuss everyone out for the holidays too!
    You always have the best holiday ideas, Laura! You’re like a sonsabitch Martha Stewed-art!
    And I’ll bet your nativity set has baby otters, badgers and goats in it too!
    *** Oooo that’s an idea. And I AM very sonsabitch Martha Stewed-art! ~Laura

  19. rdennis says:

    Lovely card. My sentiments exactly. You freekin’ Nazi.
    *** I am not a Nazi. J is. ~Laura

  20. Nancy G. says:

    I have to mail out cards this week. I am going to cuss everyone as I sign them too.
    *** You should. Seriously. ~Laura

  21. Wanda says:

    LOL! Thank you for the card!
    *** You’re welcome. ~Laura

  22. DogsDontPurr says:

    One of my jobs every year is to put together and mail over 200 Xmas cards for my boss. Wouldn’t it be hilarious if I switched out their sappy “photo of the family” card and sent out your card instead!? Hahahahahah!!!
    Hmmm…but then I guess I’d probably lose my job. Party poopers!!!
    *** It would be epic though if you did right before you quit or something. ~Laura

  23. Jan says:

    “Bah” and “Humbug” are the full extent of my holiday cheer.
    (Did you see the new baby otter pictures at CuteOverload? http://cuteoverload.com/2010/11/29/meowters/ Whee!)
    *** I love them so! Even that mean one in Fla that’s attacking people, as a matter of fact I love him most. Ha! ~Laura

  24. Belinda says:

    Oh, another song would be We Three Kings are Drunk in a Bar! Whose Child is This (and if we can find a way to say get them the hell away from me, that would be great). Another idea would be you could draw your navity scene and use the picture of your lost goat!!
    *** OMG YES! My lost goat could play Baby Jesus! ~Laura

  25. SB Smith says:

    That would make the most outstanding Christmas cards sold as “From the Cat”. It’s EXACTLY what most cats would think ! I have one of those “Bad Cat Calendars” and it sounds like a sentiment from that.
    I’m serious. You could Sell those. Put the 2nd picture inside the card.
    Perfect !
    Personally, I’d change the word “sonsabitches” to “peasants”. Someone’s always gonna get their shorts in a wad over the profanity. (“peasants” might sell more, too.)
    *** People are too sensitive. There should be more cursing in life. Dammit. ~Laura

  26. Nelly says:

    Best card I got so far.
    *** You’re welcome. ~Laura

  27. Larry says:

    I heard about the rabid otter in Florida on the radio this morning driving home from work. I larfed and larfed so hard I thought I would crash the car. Obviously the otter is trying to say “LEAVE ME ALONE DAMMIT!” and no one seems to be listening, poor thing, just makes you want to go up to him and give him a hug…or not…
    How’s the thumb?
    *** It is doing good thanks for asking. And yes, just leave him alone, but now they’ll have to go catch it and probably kill it. Fuckers. ~Laura

  28. Green November says:

    how about “Deck your Balls with lots of jelly” or maybe “Gramma got molested by the reindeer”?
    *** Perv. Ha! ~Laura

  29. Merry Mary says:

    I love your goat on your banner! He is my favorite… very Andy Warhol. Love Love Love him.
    *** The real one was way more awesomer, but thanks. ~Laura

  30. D.J. says:

    You… are a goof ball…I love yer blog… You made me pee my pants… have you thought about a “Reality Show”? you are a hoot, girl!
    *** Reality? Nit really. ~Laura

  31. Pat says:

    That’s the spirit!
    *** Yeah! ~Laura

  32. mel says:

    Hey Thanks Laura! I’m just gonna tell myself you made that card just for me, and didn’t have my address so you had to post it here, and you just said that part about it being for everyone so the other readers here wouldn’t get sad. So Thanks!
    Also you’re a good photographer.
    *** You’re welcome and thank you. ~Laura
