Complimentary close for an "angry" letter
Hi,
I hope what I am going to ask you about is no "taboo subject"
Suppose you want to write an angry letter to someone ( who has been a real nuisance for years :-)
The complimentary close should match the body of the letter I guess :-)
How about "Unfaithfully yours" (*) ?
Will (*) do the trick?
are there any alternatives to (*)?

No, that is not appropriate. The content of the letter should express the anger, and adding it to the closing simply looks facetious. ) If you do not feel that you can close with 'faithfully', just omit the closing and sign your name.
