Disclaimers
All MFN greeting cards are designed to be humorous and offensive by design. All MFN greeting cards are designed both in the artwork and messaging by people who understand that there are many relationships that are tethered together only by the threads of familial bond. These relationships are flawed and imperfect and traditional greeting cards are not sent to each other as a result. MFN greetings are not for healthy relationships. They are for those flawed and imperfect relationships where sometimes a good joke is needed to build a bridge of communication. Where love is strong enough to read an underlying message within that joke. That message being, “I love you, you pain in my ass”. Or, many other messages and inside jokes between loved ones and friends.
Sometimes we can’t say what we’d like to say for fear of hurting our loved ones feelings. Emotional pain kept locked inside prevents true freedom to pursue our personal life joys. In psychology it is called Blockage. MFN greeting cards are not a psychological tool. They are simply funny as shit cards designed to make a brotha, sista, motha, fatha, cousin, 2nd cousin twice removed, auntie, unc, and our extended families and friends smile at the least and belly laugh out loud while saying “What The Fuck?!”
Anyone who is offended by these cards should click out of the site now. If you have not done so, understand that there is zero content that is not offensive to someone.
MFN Greeting cards has mad love for all races and cultures and as such will use each’s stereotypes as necessary to create and generate a somewhat personalized greeting card for that someone special. However, in the interest of self-preservation, all MFN greeting cards that are considered for publication are designed exclusively by a member of that specific race, culture, sex, sexual orientation, height, weight, number of limbs, I.Q, etc.
Part of the mission of MFN is authenticity in design and messaging. While relationship dynamics are nearly universal with the concepts of love, like, hate, dislike etc, what makes MFN cards unique is the authenticity factor. An Example would be if a card is designed to speak to a Mexican American, old, fat bald man (Or woman. We don’t discriminate) who is also gay or bisexual and dresses up in old lady clothing and drives around in a pink Prius, know that this card will have been designed by a person who has the exact same traits. Or if a birthday card is sent that conveys a negative message regarding the age or lifestyle of both the sender and recipient, it is designed by someone who has really, really wanted to send that card.
By subscribing to MFN Greeting cards website, at no time will MFN Greeting cards accept any legal responsibility for the stupid shit that some people (You) might do. As a recipient of an MFN greeting card, if you are offended by the card you receive, close it immediately, delete it from your email, cry about why your mom would send you this card, ask her, then move the fuck on with life. The world did not end. At the end of the day, no feelings should be hurt. If a recipient of an MFN greeting card feels butt hurt, it is not the fault or responsibility of the card sent. It is likely a deeper issue between the sender and the recipient. The greeting card sent, ought to be considered at the least a humorous (albeit a fucked up one) “Hello, thinking of you” and at best, a bridge to build or re-build a relationship between sender and recipient.
As a sender of an MFN card you bear the responsibility of sending cards to your circle of family and friends in a well thought out and responsible way. Only you know the type of dynamic that you have with grandma. Only you know whether she will laugh at “Happy Birthday You Old Bitch” or become mortified. The same applies to everyone else you know. At the end of the day, MFN Greetings is responsible only for providing as many different greeting cards for those of us who never really send cards because most of the existing cards do not speak “our” languages which are so many. MFN is not responsible for the sender being an asshole who sends a fucked up card to a nice and kind person who has never done anything wrong to the sender. The sender is a way fucked up individual and probably does fucked up shit besides send fucked up greeting cards to nice and kind people. In short. MFN Greeting Cards are for specific senders and recipients. They are those who do not send cards. Ever. They are not for nice and kind people. Don’t be an asshole!
