Default Round robin

What’s everyone’s thoughts on these? We have just been unfortunate enough to receive one. What a load of complete and utter pretentious bullsh1t. If you are reading this and are one of those people who sends out round robins, I can whole-heartedly tell you now that everyone thinks your a douche and nobody cares that you have been fortunate enough to spend time in your new orangery this year or that your son and his wife have now moved to a large detached bungalow in Surrey and have joined the ranks of the commuter.

I've been in a few round robins. I don't mind them as you can normally get away with losing one match, but if you win the rest you are normally guaranteed a place in the play offs.

As soon as I open a card and see that it contains a 'Dear All' letter it goes straight in the bin.

Back in my day it was a type of computer networking (scheduling for the mainframe)

I was thinking that

"A round-robin letter or Christmas letter is a letter, typically included with a Christmas card and sent to multiple recipients at the end of the year, in which the writer describes the year's events for himself and/or his family."

Well I guess no one loves me enough .. I've never had one

I suppose it all depends on wether or not you give a flying f00k about the person that's written it.

Also if it's just a look how well i'm doing bragging letter, then you might want to question your choice of friends... Or maybe if your friends doing well erks you, then you may want to take a look at yourself and your life choices.
