Happy Mother’s Day to My Mother-in-Law

Thanks for only calling me by the first wife’s name twice this year. Progress isn’t linear. Neither is your son, but we don’t talk about that either.

Shipping and handling included. Plain unmarked envelope, like contraband.

Who actually buys this card

  • The second spouse, with receipts
  • In-laws with a sense of humor and a scoreboard
  • Anyone called by the wrong name at Thanksgiving

If any of those are you, this is your card. Blank inside the back cover so you can make it worse in your own handwriting. Every inside is stamped hrviolationcards.com, so the recipient knows exactly where to send the invoice for their therapy.

Pick your poison

Same sweet front. Three different knives.

The front stays innocent; that’s what lines up the punch. Choose which inside does the damage.

Happy Mother’s Day to My Mother-in-Law

Thanks for the family recipe with one ingredient missing. I found it anyway. Your son will never know, and neither will your bridge club.

Satire disclaimer, please actually read this

These cards are satire, and extreme satire at that. They are jokes, written to be as outrageous as possible, and they are not statements of fact about any person, boss, professor, teacher, coworker, clergy member, or company. Nothing on a card describes a real event, and no card is directed at any real individual.

To be completely clear: workplace harassment, abuse of power, and quid pro quo demands are real problems and we do not endorse, encourage, or make light of actual misconduct. The joke is the absurdity of saying the unsayable in a glitter-adjacent greeting card, not the misconduct itself.

Cards contain adult language and themes. Intended for buyers 18 and older who know their audience. If you hand one of these to someone with no sense of humor, HR, or your grandmother, that outcome is entirely on you.
