Did you receive a holiday card asking you to visit this site? Then you are one of the lucky recipients in the Great Social Card Exchange Experiment. Did you want to thank the sender, wondering why you were selected or simply curious who else received one?

We encourage you to give feedback on having received a card. Whether you wish to share the story of how you received a card, thank the sender for thinking of them or even just talk about what your holiday plans are.

Simply locate and click on the card below that you received to tell us how you got one, send a thank you to the sender and swap stories with others who received the same card. All of which you’re welcome to do anonymously.

In an effort to stimulate the economy, to see the look on the post office employee’s face or purely as a social experiment I will be exchanging x-mas cards this year. Through a recent frugal purchase online I have come into possession of a hefty 225 cards itching to be licked sealed and delivered (perhaps with a sponge after the first dozen or so). They’re not fancy, they don’t have heart felt hallmark messages and they’re of the quality you’d expect from a long lost distant relative (looking to borrow money).

Hey, it’s the thought that counts! (and I’m looking to do it 225 times) Now, no matter how long or short I’ve known you chances are I don’t have your address, in fact it’s almost a guarantee, despite what some may claim of my stalker-like computer skills.

Simply send me your mailing address, your friends mailing address or even that of the cute girl you’ve been meaning to introduce me to (225 is a lot of people!) and share in this great social experiment.

All of the older humanterrarium entries have been restored and can be easily found in the archive section which now dates back to our founding in January 2007.

So I have my office door closed and I hear my boss yelling, he opens my door and tells me to hang up the fucking phone and get out of the builing. Some fuckstick repairman set the roof on fire. Wow, good thing he called the fire department. It would have been nice if he had actually come into our office and told us so we could get out…  Inside some random dude driving by stops, comes inside and says “hey, you know your roof is on fire?”. At least we know they are super responsive in Santa Clara. They had 5 fire engines, a paramedic, and then even a traffic cop blocked the road from the public. Well done guy, thanks.

Why does this remind me of Requiem for a Dream? They did this in the middle of the road.
