Remember that scene in "When Harry Met Sally" where Sally is putting her letters in the mailbox one at a time until Harry gets so fed up that he shoves them in all at once?

Well, Sally was right to put them in one at a time. Today was the second time in the past few weeks when I tried to put some letters in a mailbox but was thwarted by some jackass who had put a stack of mail in all together so that the opening was jammed shut. I tried pulling on the handle to free some of the mail in the back but to no avail. I gave up and walked around looking for another mailbox during my lunch hour.

Um... no.

The way I see it (the Harry POV, if you will), if the mailbox is a) available and b) not jammed with mail in a way that interferes with your mail insertion, there's no reason to put a letter in, close the door, open it to check and then close it again before inserting another slice.

You, my friend, were a victim of Mail Cramming. Ergo, the film does not apply.

Not buying it, huh? Oh well, I tried.
