Another Stereotype of the Month entry:
[On the inside: Congratulations and Happy Birthday "Sits On Couch With Remote Control"]
Rob,
I dare, no, double dare you to find a more offensive card. I regret that I had to buy it. I got it at Papyrus, a paper-goods chain store found in all "upscale" malls.

Rob's comment
This greeting card features the common chief stereotype and the less-common "funny Indian name" stereotype. Note also the trivialization of Indian religions with the mock ceremony to contact the "ghosts of our ancestors."
