Okay, here are a few options for a funny and heartfelt New Year's greeting card message for John, keeping your instructions in mind. I've included a couple of variations to suit slightly different relationships with John. Choose the one that feels most "you":
**Option 1 (Slightly more playful):**
"Happy New Year, John! I hope your resolutions involve less accidental chaos and more successfully hiding snacks from me. Seriously though, wishing you a year filled with laughter, good times, and maybe just a *little* bit of mischief. Here's to making some amazing memories together! "
**Option 2 (A bit more sincere with a funny twist):**
"Happy New Year, John! Another year survived – you’re a legend! Wishing you a 2024 filled with joy, success, and a significantly reduced number of awkward moments (though those are always entertaining). May your coffee be strong and your year be even stronger!"
**Option 3 (Short & Sweet):**
"Happy New Year, John! Let's face it, we both need a fresh start. Wishing you a year of good decisions, minimal regrets, and plenty of reasons to celebrate! Cheers to you!"

**All options would be signed naturally with something like:**
* Best,
* Cheers,
* Warmly,
* Talk soon,
[Your Name]
