I'm the opposite
I hate getting cards from people I never see. It seems so false, like getting a Facebook invite from someone you havent seen in years but they cant be bothered to add a little "Hi, how's it going?" message.

There's a difference between people you never see because you're not that bothered and people you don't see very often because of distance etc.

Are you doing the "ya boo sucks" rasberry thing right now?

( Colonel Dracula Two manky hookers and a racist dwarf, Thu 16 Dec 2010, 17:39, Reply)

Nope, I'm far too grown up and sensible.

( girlinthehole, Thu 16 Dec 2010, 17:41, Reply)

depends how often you speak to/text them
surely?
( rachelswipe with a fork, Thu 16 Dec 2010, 17:30, Reply)

Not really.
I rarely speak or message my best friend in New Zealand but I still send a birthday and Christmas card to let her know I'm thinking of her and vice versa.

No-one sends you cards
so your ire is purely hypothetical. Like your knob.

You jest
but I think I made the Facebook situation up in my head as nobody from my past has ever tried to contact me.

And leave Mr. Winky out of it, it's not easy living with my tough-love. He's had a hard year.
( Colonel Dracula Two manky hookers and a racist dwarf, Thu 16 Dec 2010, 17:31, Reply)

He's had a very soft year: admit it.

This is good news for him
he just needs to seize opportunities when they're presented

You've hit the nail right on the head.

She did, it was lovely.
It had a cat with a santa hat on. I gave her one (yikes) with a robin on.

We have been receiving christmas cards for the former owners of this house for the last three years
If someone hasn't bothered telling you they've moved after 3 years, then you should really realise that they think you're a cunt and just stop.

Have you been to the Tayyabs yet?
If not, when are you back in blightly, and when are you coming down to london to get stuffed with hot meat by me and monty in a small sweaty room?

If they gave a return address, send a card back explaining that half the family was wiped out by AIDS.
Bad AIDS
( Colonel Dracula Two manky hookers and a racist dwarf, Thu 16 Dec 2010, 17:33, Reply)

I did check them for return addresses
We know someone who knows them and lives near them, but I've got to the point where I refuse to try and pass post on any more, I just open it and then throw it away.
(Bazongaloid, Thu 16 Dec 2010, 17:35, Reply)

Open it, check for cash from dear old Nana, then throw it away, you mean.

( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Thu 16 Dec 2010, 17:46, Reply)

I bought this house four years ago
The previous owner died, aged 85. People keep sending her cards and you'd think that they'd add 85 and 4 up to make dead when they don't get a card back.

Maybe not.

I got a Christmas card for someone called Rhiannan from her godparents.
Not posted but pushed through the letter box by hand. You'd think someone's godparents would know where the bloody girl lived. I actuall think it's for the girl next door but I can't be arsed to deliver it yet.
