The card is exceedingly simple. It is a bear offering a fish. You are expected to notice the bear took a bite out of the fish before offering it.
Both arms are placed on a single mechanism that flips up. The mechanism is like a short broad "V" shaped like a scoop. The fish is glued onto the paws at a slightly different angle than the arms of the bear so it bends the bear's paws outward.
O hai
Here have a fish.
Thanks for inviting me. Everyone was well-behaved and lovely.
It's just so deadpan and stupid. I'm imagining the recipient going, "wtf?" Eh, these things are never acknowledged.

If the bear said, "This is not a fish" I'll bet that would elicit a response from the card recipient. Or maybe not. People are too damned cool nowadays to show surprise, or gratitude, or appreciation. Cause that would blow their cover.
Vulnerability is risky. Witness the chomp.
I wonder if the recipients don't know what to say. A card like that engages the sensory right brain while the logical left skids around looking for a box large enough to capture, contain and lock down the experience before something else pops up.
