Holiday Card No-No

I have a story for you.

My cousin D. and her boyfriend sent out Christmas cards.

On said card was a picture of their cat and rabbit with a festive background.

The only problem was that the rabbit was humping the cat and the caption said "Merry f***ing Christmas." Except without the letter omissions.

Now, I did not get a card myself. My mother relayed this to me because she got a card.

After she told me a horrifying thought occured. I quickly asked if they had sent one to my grandmother (D.'s great aunt).

Yes. Yes they had.

My 80 year old grandmother had just returned from South Carolina, from where she was attending the funeral of her older sister. When she got home she was greeted by various sympathy cards, and holiday cards.

My mother spoke with my grandmother, thinking she surely had not gotten the same card she had. Oh, but she did. Not only that, she actually read the card over the phone to my mother.

Grandma does not swear. Or, as my mother said, would not say 'sh**' if she had a mouthful.

I was both cracking up and horrified at the same time.

So, I want to take some of my stuffed animals, have them mount each other and write 'Merry f-ing Xmas' on it. Just one though. :D

And I am certainly not sending it to Grandma.
