One industry that is sure to be stable in These Economic Times is greeting cards -- people will always need that perfect card for their weird holidays/screw-ups / thank yous / relatives in prison.

Strangely enough, there's a greeting card for pretty much every occasion. We've scoured the Web for some of the weirdest cards out there, and uncovered some gems. They're the perfect way to send the very best to that complete weirdo in your life.

Read on to see some of the weirdest bits of stationary imaginable.


Not-so-friendship cards: Thanks to the viral marketers at Burger King, now you can tell all the people you friended on Facebook, but try to avoid otherwise, how you really feel.

Soviet Santa: Is Santa making snow from a gun? And why is he ominously clutching a stopwatch? Regardless, America needs to get that snow-making gun from the Reds before it's too late!

Outer-space kid: Why is space boy turning over top-secret Russian aerospace documents to a skiing bear posing as a mailman? Or maybe that's his Christmas wish list he's giving to the bear, despite the fact that he already has a spaceship? Either way, this image is pure insanity. From i17, Photobucket.

Edward Hopper Star Wars:
There's something about combining Edward Hopper's "Nighthawks" with Star Wars characters that perfectly captures the melancholy of the season.

Rocket Sled: Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus. And in his spare time, he races satellites. No, we don't understand it either, Virginia.

Slot Machine Santa: Santa really shouldn't be encouraging such dangerous habits. And once again, Rudolph doesn't get to join in any reindeer games.

Snowmen in love: A touching image. At least until March, when all that will be left of their love is an umbrella and a couple of fancy hats.

Hubble: A holiday card from the Hubble telescope is the perfect way to say, "How about a hot date at the planetarium?"
