Old But Still Good: Banned XMas Card.
This story is wonderfully simple.
A family went to FedEx/Kinkos to get their Christmas cards printed, but the store refused to make the copies.
From the family blog:
Tonight I walked into the Fedex Kinkos store on Calhoun Street here in Charleston, SC to print our Christmas cards, only to have the clerk, Tammy Johnson, reject my order as obscene.
We Cringelys are known for our Christmas cards, I admit, because we make them ourselves and we’re naked. The tradition began by accident and now our cards are so popular friends remind us to send them. Making naked Christmas cards that are tasteful isn’t easy, either, but we do it. With three little boys you can only go so long until they begin to realize they are, well, naked. That leads in our family not so much to protestations of modesty as to demands for bribes. The price of this year’s photo session was $2 worth of sour gummy worms per kid. Yum.
Thankfully, the Charleston, SC family found an online store to print them for less than FedEx.
The internet saves the world, once again.
