Got An STD? Nothing Says Chlamydia Like Emoticons

It's the perfect couple: Evite, meet sexual education. It's about time you two got acquainted. Their offspring? Why, inSPOT.org, a site that lets you send cute cards to your partners to inform of them of your STD status. One user favorite reads: "It's not what you brought to the party. It's what you left with. I left with an STD. You might have, too."

Did we mention the cards come in hot pink and neon options? If that's too Erica Jong-esque for you, try a simple yet effective: "Sometime's there's no rhyme or reason. I got diagnosed with STDs since we played."

We're sure they'll get the message. And to prove they're not just the bearers of admittedly-bad news, the cards provide locations of where to get checked, including a clickable map of Philadelphia.

Being a good samaritan just got a whole lot easier.
