Funny birthday ecards

What to write in a birthday ecard

Start with something you love about the birthday person, then add a wish for their year ahead. Make the situation or a shared habit the joke, rather than the recipient’s age, body, identity, or difficult circumstances. Add a genuine warm wish so the humor feels like affection rather than a put-down.

A few words to get you started

• Happy birthday! I brought the excellent wishes; I’m trusting someone else with the cake logistics.

• Another birthday, another opportunity for us to call eating cake a very important plan.
