Once again showing that you can post the most innocuous idea on PPOT and someone (or several someones) will step up to the plate to piss on it.
You hate getting letters? Or do you just hate Christmas and anything to do with it?
I used to get one or two every year... they seem to getting less popular... certainly never wasted the time and energy to get pissed off about it.
I'll end on an amusing note, used to get one from the mother of a family that lived behind out house that moved away and they had a boy my age that was in my group of friends.
So I'm out having beers with my buddy...
"So did you hear that Steve is gay?"
"Steve? Our Steve? That used to live the house behind us?"
"Yes"
"How did you find out?"
"It was in the Christmas letter....
Steve and his life partner went on a cruise together"
