Hate mail has been given a bit of a fashionable twist thanks to a service based out of Australia, Ship Your Enemies Glitter. A straight forward name for a straight forward case of revenge, people will be able to inflict a lot of damage with a simple product. After all, people have been known to find glitter on them days, even weeks, after they made brief contact with the stuff.
