You’d normally be offended if someone insulted you, and you’d probably be doubly offended if you’d had to pay for the privilege. But if Mr Bingo insults you, you’re one of the lucky ones. Every time Mr Bingo advertises new slots for his Hate Mail project they sell out in a few minutes. I’ve tried to get myself some Hate Mail 3 or 4 times now with no joy.
The idea is simple. You pay Mr. Bingo a tiny sum (I can’t remember how much off hand) and he sends you an original hand-drawn one-of-a-kind insult!
Which means the purchaser gets a signed original drawing, the postman gets a laugh and a story to tell his mates, and the whole world is a little happier. It definitely makes me a little happier to see new Hate Mail examples pop up around the internet.
And if you’re unlucky in your quest for Hate, like me, you are now IN luck. Because some of Mr Bingo’s favourite Hate Mail has been collected in his new book which is imaginatively titled, Hate Mail. The book will be available October 11th, and if you follow Mr Bingo on twitter he’s been announcing a bunch of (UK) dates where he will be doing book signings and things like that.
