It's funny, now that I think about it, I don't think I mention brands often in my stuff, but I don't do fake brands either...

I think you bring up a good point. The answer is, I don't know. I wrote it in like five minutes this morning. Not only that, but I loathe Hallmark. (Hallmark is anti-gay when it comes to benefits for their employees and their lack of gay themed card bug me. But that's my own baggage.) I guess I could have made it an American Greetings card...
I also didn't want to have to explain out who the person on the bill was. I wanted the piece to be short and to the point.
I also don't put my work on the same level as a multi-million dollar film. My work is for fun and for art. Fed Ex in a film about something powerful makes it seem like the director sold out and sold his soul. (But again, that's just me.)
Thanks for the critique, CP!
