Someone in the Tesco greetings card department went overboard with the thesaurus – the only seven funny replies you need
It’s very helpful when supermarkets label their greetings cards sections so you can find the type you’re looking for straight away.
It saves having to wade through the “Congratulations, you’ve got a new house” cards that are now obsolete, as well as the 4000 cards for 7-year-olds that suggest boys like superheroes and girls like glittery unicorns, when actually, both of them really like the money you’re putting in the envelope and don’t care about the picture.
Over on Twitter, retail expert Steve Dresser shared a sign from Tesco, where someone in the card department might just have gone over the top.

And anytime you feel the pain
Hey Jude, refrain
Don't carry the world upon your shoulders
For well you know that it's a fool
Who plays it cool
By making his world a little colder https://t.co/40FiORzrQV— Michael (@Michael_Dunn4) November 30, 2019
