And they always have stupid modifiers:
"from the two of us"
"to dad and his wife"
"to dad and mother", "to mother and pappy", to "mommy and father", etc.
(acutally this doesn't demostrate stupid modifiers, just stupid cards,
what ever happened to "mom and dad" or "mother and father")
On the bright side, I like Boynton cards. The Coop even carries them.
Shoebox cards aren't bad either. But then you have to find a Hallmark
store that hasn't been overrun by cretins.
The first modifier really pissed me off when I was unattached.
