Mean Cards

We want you to be nice people whose lives are filled with joy and happiness. Really.

But heck, we also want peace in the Middle East and a tryst with Jarvis Cocker.

So until hell freezes over, you can look to Mean Cards stationery for some help. The line of cards features sweet little line drawings that say the nastiest things.

Got a boss who won’t take off his stupid Bluetooth thingy? Share a laugh about it with a coworker with the “That Headset Looks Crazy” card. Need a nice way to tell a pal her crush may be a touch light in the loafer? Leave an anonymous “I Don’t Know … He Might Be Gay” card on her steps. Suspect your ex is dating a gold-digging harlot? “She May Be After Your Money” will show you care.

Enough, anyway, to send the very meanest.
