It’s late, you’re cheap, but fret not, you can still send funny online christmas cards. Here is Bitter Tonic’s top 5 online christmas cards to send for your friends who like to laugh. Better yet, the cards are free and you can send them instantly.

As you know Bitter Tonic is a comedy site, and we are very particular about our funny online Christmas cards. No shmaltzy Hallmark-y drippy gooey barfy stuff. There are plenty of those. You can pick them with a dart.

But if you plan on showing off how smart you are – how witty – urbane and cool, you’re in trouble. Truly funny cards are hard to find online. Unless you find poop cards funny.

Update: don’t miss our top funniest Christmas ecards for 2007 – including more personalized ecards.

Elf Yourself

It’s the magic of Elfamorphosis. Upload a picture of yourself to their server and your head appears on a dancing elf’s body. Call in to a special number and record your special message via telephone. Very cool, except for the incessant bells that ring in the background while you trim your face to fit the elf’s body. This card is the card that sparked the trend in photo e-cards.

Bonus: There are lots more cards and games if you click on OfficeMax in the lower right of the screen.

MonkEmail

Choose your monkey, dress it up, then add some audio. You can choose from uploading prerecorded audio, or have text that you write converted to audio by a robot voice, or call in your message like above. Nothing says holiday season quite like a monkey. There’s a snowman in the background so that makes this card legit. Now who hasn’t wanted to customize a monkey?

Bonus: Oddcast, the company that made MonkEmail also made Christmas Cards for Starbucks and Better Homes and Garden Magazine customers to email out from their sites.

• Check out the Starbucks It’s Red Again campaign.

• Or the Better Homes and Gardens, My Christmas Wish.

The latter one isn’t as sucky as it sounds, and Better Homes and Gardens will make a 50 cent contribution to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation with each card that is sent out, which is a double bonus in our books.

Three from Egreetings**

Normally you have to pay for cards from Egreetings, but they are in a giving mood this season and are offering a free trial promotion where you can send as many Ecards as you’d like. And that is very cool. Here are Bitter Tonic’s picks for the funniest.
