My Business Card That I Just Designed
Having recently read an uncorrected proof of my colleague Dayn Perry’s forthcoming book, Business and Fucking: Secrets to Dominating the Competition in the Boardroom and the Bedroom, I am now filled with (a) a profound sense of shame, which no amount of therapy or SSRI or deep knee bends could ever truly purge and (b) wisdom concerning business.
My first step after reading Perry’s book? To cry in the shower, naturally.
My second step, though? To design and purchase business cards, with a view to announcing to the world that I’m a gentleman who knows a thing or two about a thing or two.
Here is the front of said card (which is actually the MiniCard sold by MOO):
And, in full technicolor, the reverse side:
Carson Cistulli says terrible things at The New Enthusiast.
Is that Dick Allen?
Dick Allen is everything.
No… thats what’s on the other side of you eyelids. Aren’t you glad their are no light bulbs inside you eyes now?
Share the wealth with that uncorrected proof!!
Perhaps a card with the Dick Allen picture on the front, and then on the back, only the words ‘You had the pleasure of meeting me’ appearing. This would be amongst the best (and least informative and also, most informative) business cards ever.
Is that…eggshell…with romalian type?
That’s bone.
A color whose use is mandated in the uncorrected proof.
Great movie, awful book. Bale makes everything better, even crazy man rants.
My twitter bio line was inspired by the podcast episode discussing the origin of the term gentleman and Carson’s previous use of the word polymath.
“gentleman polymath”
Next step: Combine every skinny tie you own into one, massive power tie. Dominate business, and the opposite sex.
In lieu of not listing, on a business card, a physical address at which one can be found, it is proper etiquette to list the park bench, alley or needle exchange one is most likely to be at, in it’s stead.
why would anyone want a Moo MiniCard? so it can get lost in someone’s wallet, pocket or desk easier???!?!? wtf?! this is the opposite of business acumen and bedroom acumen…
On the contrary, my fine sir. MiniCards denote confidence. Much like the Smith & Wesson .500 (it sports an ungodly 8 inch barrel), the only men who use larger business cards are compensating for a lack of size elsewhere.
International or domestic LG?
