    Jokes on them, we used IVF, they got picked for who knows what reason under a microscope.

    From your most photogenic swimmer.

      Even in the old school way, this postcard is incorrect. The winner is rarely the fastest swimmer, as several sperm arrive at the egg before a single one is allowed inside.

        Yeah, the egg decides who gets let in. “Happy Father’s Day from your most attractive (to Mom’s egg) swimmer”

    Actually, the fastest swimmer bangs his head on the egg’s shell and gets none.

          In Germany father’s day was 3 weeks ago. But it’s actually a Christian holiday and people came to call it father’s day because we don’t have an official one and wanted a day for drinking.

          All people drink on father’s day though and we also drink on other days but that’s what we have now.

        Poster-sized prints take a while.

        Just kidding, the idea of sending this to one’s own father is rather repulsive. Guess some of y’all are weirdos though and that’s cool :)

    It’s a real joke of a card when you’re forced to hand it off to the man you’ve been told to call “dad” throughout life, knowing good and well he did NOT make any part of you.

      Oh I feel this comment, after watching my Wife’s mother do the same thing to her all her life.

      “Say hi to your new Dad!”

      Your dad doesn’t have to be biologically related to you to be your dad. Hell, plenty of ones that are aren’t dads in any other sense. What matters if he was a good or shitty dad, not biology.

        The card is about BIOLOGICAL fathers. If your dad’s gametes didn’t make you, then you might want to choose a different card.

    Yeah my mom was my dad for all but the first 3 years. My dad decided early he wanted another setup, so took off and got one. So somewhere out there i have a half brother and sister and all their resultant kin. We dont communicate

    Read this a fascist swimmer and imo that is a much funnier card I’d wanna buy.
