Explain christmas card joke

One of its uses as perfume was to anoint the dead.

From a carol: “Myrrh is mine, its bitter perfume/breathes a life of gathering gloom/sorrowing, sighing, bleeding, dying/sealed in a stone-cold tomb.”

Yeah, I’d rather have an easter egg.

It’s the gift that keeps on giving…

Damn!
That cracked me up good and proper.

I honestly don’t get that joke.

It worked for me because I was expecting a bad Christmas pun.
Like Aussie chef was talking about.
It’s one of those blind-siding jokes.

But if you think about it, someone who comes around at night ringing bells all through town when honest folk are trying to sleep, … No?

It is a multi level joke.
One of the men is wise enough to see the future?
He is also so crass as to flaunt it?
The wise men know, but the rest don’t? Cracking an inside joke.
A joke about the increasing political correctness minefield of making jokes.
Pretty good joke.

I’d like to see that card. The site won’t let me see it unless I subscribe.
