Congruent Cards

I often find it a struggle buying greetings cards mainly because of the sentiments contained therein which always seem to extoll the wonderful virtues of the recipient. But what if this isn't your reality?

I've come up with a great solution which i expect to make me a few bob too. I call them Congruent Cards and are replete with messages such as 'You were a complete shit to me when we were growing up but you're still my brother so happy birthday' or 'Happy Father's Day, you taught me to be a great dad by not being like you'.

So before i go to Dragon's Den what do you think? Would you buy one and if so who for and what would it say?

I don't know if it would be a good business idea, but I do agree there aren't enough cards that say something like:

"Convention dictates that I'm supposed to get you a card but don't go thinking you anything more than OK."

I find there is always an appropriate card in some of the local shops near me. I'm in Glasgow so there is a range that has a selection of Glasgow colloquialisms such as "Fannybaws" (someone who is dense) or "Pure Gallus" (a person or thing with style and panache). The more cheeky ones could be sent "tounge in cheek"

There's a shop in the centre of Bristol that sells cards like that. Probably not the place you'd find one to send to your gran.

Might be Scribble or something, cannot remember.

You mean someone's thought of this already? Bugger, back to the drawing board.

I'm sure there will be lots of irreverent greetings yet to be invented and imprinted on a bit of cardboard
