“Dear Chris – Is it tacky to send my girlfriend and e-card for her birthday?”
This action is only tacky when your e-card has a MIDI file playing in the background. That's just wrong. I would actually encourage you to move your love life entirely online. Physical sensations are so twentieth century! Instead of talking to her, you could post something about your relationship on your blog. Instead of bringing her flowers, you could make up cute little ASCII roses and attach them to your signature, like so: —,—`-{@ If she leaves you, it wasn't meant to be. But I know plenty of fourth-level Valkryies on a MUD in Sweden who would kill for a man like you.

She might get the wrong idea. Or you may get lucky tonight. Either way quit being a cheap ass and get down to Hallmark.

I know what you mean. I play MUDs quite often. Life is so beautiful once you realize that there aren't many people that would take you in the physical world, but there are others that would dare the pits of Hell and battle a severed arm over a fire breathing hunk like yourself.

Whoa it just happens to be the day I'm selling a dozen roses for $5…. get this tho….
It's not just ASCII roses, we sell full 16 color ANSI encoded ASCII roses … thorn's included, extra sharpening – extra charge.
Get yours here :)
Well okay I'm on crack tonight, it's 2:36am and I'm currently :-
1) Working at home
2) Working hard
3) Stuck in the logic of my own software
4) Going to the clinic tomorrow to get some heart pills for the stress (seriously)
5) Taking a break and discovering this Blog thing.
6) Beating the hell outa my PocketPC silently while the woman sleeps, as it's not doing what it's supposed to be doing! (The PocketPC I mean)
About these blogs. I've been using LiveJournal for a while now and was going to post it to TechTV. But with the things that've been going on lately I dont think it's appropriate.
Anyways signing off, getting back to work, hopefully get this phase done before 4 so I can get at least a few hours sleep.

It is okay to send an e-card if and only if you also give her a physical card before or after.
If you're too cheap to go to the store and by a 99 cent card, then just kiss your relationship goodbye.
Happy birthday, Talisak.
