Not Belated
FOUND by Mark Hoffman
in Santa Cruz, CA
I've been tempted to use this on someone after forgetting their birthday. There must have been some understood excuse between giver and receiver for the birthday wishes coming late, not sure what it was.

Nothing says happy birthday like a black heart. Or mitten. Rooster with a missing beak. Thing.
Maybe a black outlined-red butterfly?
I think the birthday girl (surely a girl) was out of town, not home over the birthday. Can't be late if birthday girl is missing!
I love how the bright, crazy capital lettering of the greeting constrasts with the rather pointed subtitle. I imagine that belated B-Day wishes have been a point of conflict between these two before.
ried to make it on time but, due to the egregiousness of his injuries and the vicissitudes of train travel in those regions, arrived considerably late and, despite his desire to proffer his warmest felicitations, could only manage a weak and insubstan
"B-Day"? "B-Day"? Maybe it means Belated Day.
Or Backwards Day.
Bottle-draining Day? Boy Day? Back-rub Day? Be Bad Day? What in the world could this mean?
Bicycle day
Bug day
Band day
Bugle day
Boring day - though why celebrate it?
Atrocious spelling strikes again! They actually meant "Happy Bidet!" And I think those riding on the train with the receiver (Farmer) are relieved they got one...un-belatedly.
Happy BYOB-Day!
I read it that "it doesn't count, as belated" was like a rejection stamp that the birthday boy had written before returning it to the sender.
I would have used either the red or blue crayon to draw the circle. I never would have thought to pull out another color. Which is why I'm not an interior designer, I suppose.
(I think that's a black tombstone and its shadow)
Bro Day.
I wonder if a gift was attached to this.
Is this one of those time machine things?
Bumbershoot Day. See you in Seattle.
It's clearly a Canadian greeting:
"Happy B-D (Bondage-Domination) -ay!"
"Happy birthday. Also, please note that since I have added a disclaimer clearly stating that the note does not count as belated, it is thus legally binding; so by accepting this admittedly half-assed birthday card you are forfeiting any potential civil recourse should any conflict arise."
A young lawyer. No doubt whatsoever.
Reba and Fiona had been arguing about whether a one-day late birthday greeting counted as belated if it was a Monday and they were school friends. Reba's birthday was on a Sunday that year, so Fiona gave her this card on Monday. She drew a heart-shaped red velvet cake, which was Reba's favorite cake.
Ah, a find from my hometown.
Keep Santa Cruz Weird.
Santa Cruz...god, I love the Catalyst.
Me too- Catalyst rocks!
This reminds me of my boyfriend. He has a tradition of wishing people a happy birthday a day late consistently; that way, even if he forgets he has a day to remember and everyone else wishing that person a happy birthday to remind him. A terrible cop-out, if you ask me. But he would say that "it doesn't count as belated." This actually looks like his handwriting too. Hmm...
