Junk mail… what’s wrong with this picture?

Argh!!! I hadn’t checked my mailbox for about 1 1/2 weeks.

It’s crazy. So much wasted paper. In this entire pile of paper, there was only one letter in which I could perhaps be interested (and even that is debatable since it’s from the ProClub). I really need to have a word with the Post Office.
