You Are Not Old, You Are Just Vintage
A grinning yellow face in a starry party hat gives a thumbs up and carries a cake on a purple dotted landscape card. The headline YOU’RE NOT OLD… YOU’RE JUST… VINTAGE! is in bold white capitals. The card is for friends who enjoy teasing about age.
Headline, Cartoon Face and Thank You Note
The card is 800 x 600 pixels, landscape, one page. Confetti and sparkles float around the face. The note sits at the lower left in small white type. The last line is slightly bolder.
The Joke and the Note
The note reads Thanks for being my partner in crime, my unpaid therapist, and the one who still laughs at my terrible jokes! The last line says Happy Birthday, My Friend! Use the joke only with people who do not mind age humour. For others, replace the headline with something kinder. Add your friend’s name and your own.
Using Age Humour Safely
- Know the person.
- Avoid jokes about health.
- Keep it affectionate.
- Add a sincere line at the end.
- Replace vintage with a favourite word.
When Humour Misses
Not everyone enjoys age jokes. If your friend is sensitive about getting older, choose a card that celebrates instead of teases. A warm message always works.
Pairing the Card With a Vintage Gift
Make the joke real with a retro gift such as a vinyl record, an old film poster or a classic board game. The card and the present then tell one story.
Printing Purple and Yellow
The saturated purple uses plenty of ink. A laser prints it evenly. For a quick proof, print in grayscale.
