Completely Unnecessary FAQ...
The thing about FAQ's is they always leave you wanting more. And given that there aren't that many questions to answer about greeting cards in the first place, we decided to create this completely unnecessary FAQ to provide answers to questions that our necessary FAQ, and any FAQ, for that matter, may have missed.
If you have a question that still remains unanswered after reading this, feel free to email us with your question and we might just add it to this FAQ.
I want to be young and beautiful again. Any suggestions?
Plastic surgery is always an option, but it'll neither make you look particularly young nor beautiful. More likely, you'll spend the rest of your days with your skin unnaturally drawn across your bones and an unalterable expression of surprise on your face. (Picture a skydiver who just realized s/he jumped without a chute.)
An alternative option, for those who enjoy blinking, would be to stock up on High Voltage greeting cards and begin sending them to anyone and everyone you've wished you'd kept in better touch with or wished you'd known better over the years.
In recharging your personal relationships, you'll revitalize all the things that made you young and beautiful to begin with: your self-confidence, your sense of belonging and community, your curiosity and openness to new ideas, your personal honesty and ability to laugh at yourself, your sense of adventure and ability to see beauty, and your desire to just have fun. And, in the process, you'll not only begin to offset the destructive toll the stress of loss, loneliness, anxiety, and regret have taken on your physical appearance, you'll also begin to find real happiness.
And just think, you can have all that at a fraction of the cost of a few months supply of age-defying face cream!
Is it true that your nose and ears never stop growing?
Absolutely, which is why you best not delay in sending those High Voltage greeting cards today.
Why snail-mail a greeting card when an email, IM, or texting is so much easier?
When was the last time you saw an email, IM, or text message prominently displayed on someone's table or bulletin board? And/or when was the last time you heard someone say, "Oh what a pretty email?"
The fact that email, IM, and texting is so much easier to send, is precisely why you should send a CARD!
For one thing, unlike an email, IM, or text message, a greeting card doesn't disappear into the ethers or an electronic file after its been received. Rather, it's most often proudly placed out in the open on a table, desk, or bulletin board-- a mini-shrine to the sender -- to be relished time and time again by its recipient.
And for another thing, sending the very same words in a card versus an email, text message, or IM, will net you ten times the impact, simply because of 1) the nature of the presentation and 2) the perception of the effort you took to send the card. Which, let's face it, isn't very much effort at all!
So, if you want to make an impression, send a greeting card... a High Voltage greeting card.
If it's the thought that counts, why not just send any card instead of a High Voltage card?
If you're going to send a card to tell someone that you're thinking about them, you want to make sure you put some thought into the card you send.
A great card (i.e. a High Voltage greeting card) says: "I'm thinking about YOU, and, in doing so, I've picked out a card that I know you will relate to for its image or thought and appreciate for its artistry, imagination, or humor!"
A not-so-great card, on the other hand (i.e. the vast majority that shall remain nameless due to our fear of receiving cards from lawyers), says something slightly different. They say: "I'm thinking about you-- sort of. Not enough to get a card that exactly reflects that, mind you, but certainly enough to grab this one on my way to the cash register to pay for the prescription ointment I needed for my personal hygiene purposes."
But don't just take our word for it, see definitive scientific proof for yourself in the side-by-side brain scan comparison below:
How do I know when I've had too much caffeine?
If your hands are shaking and you're involuntarily wetting yourself, you might want to reconsider that next sip of energy drink. But while you're up for next two days, may we suggest you kill some time browsing our website for cool cards you can send to all your friends.
What about adding my pet's name when I'm sending a card? Lame? Or cool?
According to a survey, 72 percent of Americans sign their pets' names on greeting cards they send out, so if you did, you wouldn't be alone in doing so.
But the real question is: If you think enough of your pet to sign their name to your card, why don't you spring for a card they can send themselves? Don't you think they'd occasionally like to write their own friends and maybe even add your name to their correspondence?
How can I spice up my marriage?
Listen to your spouse, help around the house, bathe often, and let him/her know that you still care by sending a High Voltage greeting card today!

What does receiving a High Voltage greeting card mean to the person I send it to?
In a word, or, more figuratively, four words: It means the world. Put yourself in the person's shoes to whom you're thinking of sending a card. Imagine how they will feel when they realize that you took the time to personally select a card that was right for them, that conveyed a message that expressed your feelings and/or wrote a few words of your own to let them know that they were in your thoughts. It's a nice feeling, isn't it?
Okay, now snap out of it and hurry up and order them a card, so they can actually feel the feeling that you're imagining!
Does sending a romantic High Voltage card really increase my odds of hooking up?
Yes, actual field testing has shown that sending a romantic High Voltage greeting card really does increase your odds of hooking up. But a word of caution here:
Be wary of the Law of Diminishing Returns. Send too many cards to that special someone, and his or her romantic feelings might be replaced by a general sense of creepiness. Send far too many cards, and you may receive one back with a restraining order in it.
Refer to the graph below to find the balance that works best for you:
Are there any side effects involved in sending High Voltage greeting cards?
General use has been shown to result in richer, more meaningful relationships, increased sense of belonging, and a greater sense of well being.
If used to woo a prospective love interest, you can also expect to experience dry mouth, increased heart rate, a feeling of light headedness, and that quasi-nauseated feeling that comes with being in love.
Some users have reported side effects that included excessive sweating, blurred vision, involuntary tremors, uncontrollable flatulence, spontaneous drooling, incessant genital itching, sudden and relentless growth of body hair, grotesque bloating of fingers and toes as well as ears and nose, narcolepsy, and priapism in combination with mortifyingly impaired judgment. But their symptoms were discounted as the silly complaints of hypochondriacs and, therefore, not included in our official findings.
Is it true your heart beats over 100,000 times a day?
Yes, for most people that is true. But for people who happen to receive a High Voltage greeting card in the mail, their heart beats approximately 107,133 times that day.

Two things:

2) Find a cute guy and send him a High Voltage greeting card with your phone number in it.
So why the Rat Cards?
A) Because any psychotherapist will tell you that appropriately expressing your emotions is far better than holding them in.
B) Interesting fact: The DNA of humans is closer to a rat than a cat. And in some cases, it's not just closer, it's exactly the same. We felt our Rat Cards, and/or any of our Get Lost cards, Get Even cards, or even our Psycho Boyfriend cards offered an appropriate way to express your emotions in those particular cases.

I'm thinking about tattooing my girlfriend's name on my body to prove my love for her. Good Idea?
Listen Zippy, we hate to rain on your parade, but someday (in a galaxy far, far away) she may not be your girlfriend. And if that ever turns out to be the case, your future girlfriend (who may even be hotter than your current girlfriend) might not enjoy seeing your ex-girlfriend's name etched across your butt every time you drop trow.
If you want to show your girlfriend you love her, show some imagination and some real courage: actually write down what you're feeling and send it to her in a High Voltage greeting card!
What is the average bra size?
The average bra size today is 36C. Ten years ago it was 34B, which is why we also offer our "breast augmentation congratulations" cards or "Congratulations on the New Boobs!" cards, as we like to call them. Check them out, and buy a few, especially if you spend much time in Los Angeles.
What's the best way to let someone know that I'm thinking about them?
Aside from visiting with them or speaking to them directly on the phone, which let's face it, never happens anymore, because everybody's too busy and nobody answers their phone, a High Voltage card works best.
It takes a minimal effort on your part to send, but will be perceived as a big deal by the person you send it to. It costs but a few dollars, but will likely be prominently placed on a table top for weeks to come in appreciation for your effort. And it will make you stand out in the mind of the person you send it to as being a person of great taste and appreciation for artistry or humor.
No voicemail, email, IM, or text message can do that, and flowers won't last enough, even at ten times the cost. So the choice is clear: send a High Voltage greeting card today!
Is it true that people are radioactive?
It is true that people are slightly radioactive, mostly due to the decay of what are called potassium-40 atoms in their body.
It is also true that people who send High Voltage greeting cards are perceived to be more radioactive than most because everyone thinks they're so hot.
My cell phone does not work. What can I do?
Give your friends a break from your incessant texting and drop them a High Voltage greeting card instead.
Why not just visit or call?
Those are the two best ways to keep your relationships fully charged, no doubt. But in giving a card, you commit to writing your feelings down on a keepsake that the person you're giving it to can refer back to time and time again. This simple act lends importance to your feelings, making them more than just a passing comment and something to be remembered.
Our advice? Go for a visit, but take a High Voltage greeting card with you!
When is a door not a door?
When it's ajar.
Why bother?
Because it's worth the effort.
What's the best card to send for Boxing Day and, btw, what the hell is Boxing Day?
Nobody really knows for sure, but it is celebrated nonetheless on December 26th in places like Canada and the United Kingdom, Australia, and New Zealand.
As soon as we figure out what is, we'll have Boxing Day cards. In the meantime, any of our cards will do, because nobody's really going know to if they're inappropriate for Boxing Day or not.
What exercise gives you the most return for the effort?
Smiling not only makes you feel great, it uses up to 53 facial muscles. So if you're looking for bang for the buck in terms of exercising, we suggest smiling as often as possible.
And speaking of smiling and bangs for your bucks, High Voltage greeting cards make people smile AND they deliver the biggest bang for the buck of, perhaps, any gift that can be exchanged between two people today. They cost but a few dollars, and yet, if handled properly, can be perceived as a hundred times more valuable than a gift that cost a hundred times more.
So make someone smile, and them send a High Voltage greeting card today!
So why should I send a High Voltage card and not some other brand?
Because in a world of doodles and drawings, of cartoons and caricatures, and of pinks and pastels, High Voltage greeting cards stand out from the rest with a style all their own. A style that celebrates artistry, imagery, and imagination, memorializes the moments when matter and light conspire to create beauty, and compels us to appreciate the simple details of the world around us.
