I don't know about you, but I hate junk mail. We get flyers hucked at our front lawn several times a week. I have yet to sit up all night in wait of the litter fuck who gets paid to throw garbage at my house. Then we get more in our PO box: solicitations from credit companies and charities, promotions from stores and a local newspaper we don't even subscribe to. All of it is garbage. For the small percentage I might actually read or use, it is certainly not worth the tree death and energy consumption to have it. I think this crap is invasive, wasteful and a danger to the environment. With the growing trend to mend our planet, junk mail and any soliciting of the like should be made illegal and by subscription only. What say you?

I agree so much I pooped a little. I have returned junk mail to the deliverer and made tele-marketers cry. And not just because I'm a twat.

That wv is priceless.
Seriously. Government needs to take some more responsibility. It's great n all that they want to offer pretty little tax breaks as incentives. How about forcibly by changing the laws!!!!! If our planet really is that screwed what the fuck are we waiting for. Let's stop waste in it's tracks. If we aren't creating it we don't need to find a way to dispose of it. Too much pressure is being put on the individual and I believe that business needs to take more responsiblity. Oh I could go on...especially of all the waste that restaurants make...
Absolutely! I think we should lie in wait and huck the trash back at the perps. Love that work 'huck', btw! It's kind of onomatopoeic.
Like Green Fish, I actually farted in agreement and followed through a bit.
Not too much though.
Fair point, well made. And to start my protest, I will not use toilet paper any longer, just like what Sheryl Crow wants.
God knows how I'll keep my fingernails clean though.
I am perpetually drowning in junk mail. It is the devil.
I don't get mail anymore except for bills. Somehow I have slipped off the junkmail radar.
i get about 20 catalogues in the mail a week... from god knows where.... it really makes me sick
I concur so much that I nearly did a sex wee.
And don't you f~cking hate it how your 'No Junk Mail' sign gets studiously ignored by the pizza-faced little turd who delivers it all?
Great Post Kat! I hugely agree! I used worked in retail for a long time and it would make me so mad when we would get deliveries in of tank-tops and hundreds of other things made of cotton, they would be wrapped in 4 layers of tissue paper then wrapped in plastic then packed in cardboard boxes with bubble wrap!!!!!!!!! This was when I was in Ireland and the government made everyone pay 15 cents for every plastic bag they used so every shop started using paper bags.... I'm gonna stop now before the comment becomes a book! But once again, I agree with you!
Agreed. I am sick of it. When i pull out the mail from my box, two pieces go home with me, and the rest goes in the trash. Do these people really believe they are reaching an audience with this paper waste?
sighs... our poor children. i hope we can stop it.
