A season of sharing

Be sure to check your e-mail this holiday season, because someone may have, um, given you something:

E-mail sent through Web sites launched in Los Angeles and San Francisco is providing people with a free, sometimes anonymous, way to tell their casual sex partners that they might have picked up more than they bargained for.

[...]

The site allows users to choose one of six free e-cards to send to their sexual contacts, either unsigned or with a personal message that avoids awkward face-to-face disclosure.

"It's not what you brought to the party, it's what you left with," says one e-card featuring a picture of a bare-chested man. "I left with an STD. You might have one, too. Get checked out soon."

Might I suggest one of my own? How's about, "On the third day of Christmas it started burning when I pee, so you may want to get tested for an STD."

Catchy, no?
