I'm not a big greeting card person, but I know for some people it's a nice gesture they appreciate and it's relatively low effort on my part so I try to keep a few cards on hand for various occasions like birthdays, get well soon, etc. My long term partner's mother is one of those people who loves cards. Partner is not into sending them and never did before we got together. But after we got together, I started sending them to his mother (we'd both sign it) fairly regularly. Well. Last year, I forgot to mail off her birthday card and it was like, a week late. She sent this big whiny e-mail about how she was SOOOOOOOOOOO DISAPPOINTED and how could we do this to her blah blah blah was it because we were maaaaaaaaad at her blah blah blah. It was seriously over the top melodramatic and quite hypocritical because she forgets stuff all the time and nobody holds it against her because we're not assholes. When the card arrived, she did a total 180 and got all sweet again and thanked... MY PARTNER. Whose major contribution was to sign his name.

Guess who's not getting a birthday card ever again?
