  • Let me give you a background. We were supposed to take a trip to Costa Rica (girls only vacation), after purchasing the airline tix, splitting the hotel costs, bus fares, ect...I spent almost $1K on my part, she emails me and tells me she can't go (b/c she suddenly could not afford it). I found out later that she never bought the airline ticket in the first place...lied the ENTIRE time.

    I didn't get my money back on anything (airline..thanks Continental) and hotels.. So it's safe to say that I'm still a little miffed at her.

    How about...

    "Happy Birthday, liar"

    HAHA. This one gets my vote.

    I also like something to the tune of...

    "I was going to get you a card, but all my money is gone bc of the trip." Write it with some crayons on a piece of printer paper.

    Came across a bday card this wknd that my bro had sent me almost 30yrs ago. He was in HS and I in college. My 10yr old nephew thought it was hilarious and my bro even remembered giving it to me.

    Something like, "Helen Waite & I got you a bday present." *open card* "So if you want your gift from me, go to Helen Waite!"

    Oh, yeah!

    Oh hell no!! She would be lucky if she even got a damn birthday card! Smh!!

    Send a text message wishing her a happy birthday. That is all.

    Ah, OK. I was wondering what you meant by typing "friend" in quotes, preceded by "quasi" in your original post.

    Now I see that you simply misspelled "lying *kitten*" - sometimes autocorrect can be tricky on smart phones.

    ^^^


    Yeah, I wouldn't get her *kitten*. She's not even worth the card.

    Congratulations on this anniversary of your vaginal breach. I'm glad you emerged the right way round and with the correct number of limbs.

    Happy Birthday, I hope you enjoyed the gift I gave you. I thought it would come in really handy on the airplane coming back from Costa Rica.

    The best is the psych-out. You write it as if it contains a sentiment but it is merely an acknowledgement of fact.


    "It's your birthday!"

    sign your name.

    Edit: note - for this to work, the birthday card cannot have sentiments in it already. The plainest "Birthday" card you can find.

    I gave my brother-in-law a birthday card that said "Happy Birthday! Go out and buy yourself something nice." There was no money in the card.

    Tell them YOU know that THEY know YOU are NOT a good friend and that YOU just got them a cheap card.
    Oh and have a bunch of strangers sign it for you.

    LMAOOOOO!!! Having strangers sign the card is GOLDEN!!!!!!!!!!

    photocopy your receipts from airline, etc., write "Happy Birthday" on them.

    I like this one. I just saw your reason for calling her "friend".
  • Just write "happy birthday" on her facebook wall. She doesnt deserve a card.

    "Ah, another year gone. At least we'll always have Costa Rica!"
  • How about just a picture of you wearing a happy birthday hat holding a margarita in one hand and a middle finger on the other. When you turn it over it just says "sometimes words just aren't enough"
  • "Happy Birthday. You owe me $1,000."

    In these situations my dad will always draw a nice picture on a paper bag that a card would come in with a little note that says "Times are tough.Times are hard. Here's your ******* Birthday Card! Everyone seems to love it. They keep them:ohwell:

    This one!!!!
  • A simple "Happy Birthday" just won't do. No, not for you. So, I did a little research and found an ancient Latin American Birthday wish just for you. "Mentirosa!"



    (That's Spanish for "Liar!". She would know that if she'd been to Costa Rica)

    Your birthday is a special time to celebrate the gift of “you” to the world.


    Just be sure to include the gift receipt because you know we’re taking that sh.it back.

    Say it with a jibjab. Dazzle people into thinking that you spent a lot of time on it. It takes less than five minutes.

    "If you had a party at Chuck E Cheese, I'd have bought you a wonderful and meaningful gift. But without games, pizza and cake, I just can't justify the purchase. I love you anyway. Happy birthday."
