Gonna use this. I think it would suit me well

I honestly also thought this was giving more "tiniest violin in the world" vibes

Yes it is! But I think that's just us projecting from our 2025 position of absolute cynicism!

It's even more incredible when you think it's using a font that was not even created yet! Someone from the future traveled all the way back in time to give this card. That should have been one hell of a sad story.

I mean, Inwood (if the OP is talking about NYC) at that time was a HUGE Irish immigrant community so it's very possible it was an Irish mother that created it 😂

Getting thousands of these printed and handing them out to anyone who has the smallest complaint about anything.
