I would say send it back, but that would require a pool of hellfire. SaschaHM Aug 2016 #3
If the mailing includes a pre paid postage return envelope, here's my suggestion Siwsan Aug 2016 #4

It's what I do with all unsolicited credit card application mailings. First take a sharpie and cross out all areas where you would write your information. An option is to use that sharpie to write a pointed message to the sender. Then fold up everything, including the outside envelope and solicitation letter, and stuff it all into the postage return envelope. Seal with tape because it will be bulky, and drop into the mail. Then the sender has to pay the postage overage.

It's the crispest chicken you can get! Everyone says that! When i cook chicken it's the best. People say my breasts are the juiciest crispest breasts ever. Everyone says so. Fantastic breasts, very bigly.
-pause to snort a giant line of meth with gold straw-
Ok where did i leave off... Right! so don't eat Popeyes or Bojangles, that's for losers. They lose sooo much! Like crooked Hillary, where's her birth certificate? People are saying she's born in Africa. It takes a village, right? Extra Crispy never loses. And the nuggets. Everyone says my crispy nuggets are the best ever! The Tea-baggers love'em, love to put my nuggets in their mouth.....

Or, better yet, some of these things: https://www.amazon.com/Tract-Million-Dollar-Bill-20-Pack/dp/1878859471

Maybe you can find a religious fanatic who likes to pass them out, and get a stack from him/her.

seem appropriate for that huckster, especially if there's a prepaid envelop included.

for the Senate, I got a fundraising letter from her opponent. ( I live in Illinois). So, I got online, went to the Hillary for Senate website, and printed out a few pages of her positions, accomplishments, ect. Put them in the prepaid envelope, and sent them off.
