There it goes again Card

Because nothing says “aging gracefully” quite like throwing your back out while doing absolutely nothing. This Birthday card celebrates the quiet horror of everyday movements, the betrayal of your own body, and the realisation that youth left the building without saying goodbye.

A birthday card styled as the cover of a sensational vintage paperback, inspired by trashy midcentury pulp novels. The bold headline reads “There It Goes Again!” supported by melodramatic teaser text warning of sudden pain and instant regret. The illustration shows a middle-aged man frozen mid-sock-application, clutching his lower back in pure agony as disaster strikes. The design uses distressed textures, exaggerated retro typography, and high-contrast, saturated colours, complete with classic pulp details such as a mock bestseller badge, faux price stamp, and over-the-top taglines that turn a mundane moment into a full-blown cautionary tale.
