Getting fed up with Amazon and their shipping times, ALL FAKE, supposed to arrive on Wed, it comes Fri, I left for a conference on Thurs.
David Hasslehoff is the 8th wonder of the world.
Nothing is better.
I can spend hours reading Amazon reviews. But the classic review thread is still Trimmer’s ‘How to Avoid Huge Ships’:
Amazon’s Three Wolf Shirt is an old but good one that’s still going on.
The king of hilarious amazon reviews is still the Haribo sugar free gummy bear saga( sugar free seems unavailable now, I wonder why.) :
“On any given day I can be found reading a crime novel on a park bench in the middle of the city, soaking in the opulence of nature while nibbling on my tuna fish sandwiches and fending off the voracious gulls and squirrels that threaten to spoil my repose. This is me. Law-abiding and introspective. Which is why it came as a shock to me to find myself incarcerated because of the Devil’s Confectionery, Satan’s Sweetmeat, Lucifer’s Lozenges - the horror that is known as ‘Haribo Sugar Free Gummy Bears”.
Funny, but they somehow missed the amazing Amazon reviews of the Haribo Sugar Free Classic Gummy Bears. Those are an all time classic. (Read if you dare)..
The comments (IMHO) should be directed at the manufacturers of those products. Amazon just sells them or sold by companies through Amazon. It’s like blaming a bus driver for a rickety bus.
Here is one that I particularly enjoyed when I was researching whether to buy a Cricut:
I absolutely love these. Some of these products have dozens of hilarious reviews, lie the Avoiding Tall Ships Book and the Tuscan milk. People are so darn funny.
Go to Google maps, navigate to North Korea, click on “nearby” and select “restaurants.” There are a few around Pyongyang.
Check out the reviews - hilarious!
Jeff Bezos may be evil, but Amazon revolutionized the market, and gosh darn it, the reviews restore my faith in free thought, trade and sailors rights.
Thanks. These are fun!
Amazon has too many scammers selling ‘open box’ products as new... then if you complain in a serious but dignified fashion - they cut the review by saying it has profanity in it...
All I wrote was that the selling was sending out returned products or ‘seconds’ and I could NOT get the review posted. Amazon needs to have a back up way of posting a complaint because if they don’t take control of the scam artists they’ll ruin the company.
Just got to save this - too good!
LOL...these are too funny.
Reminds me of when I was looking for the Gumbo base I like to use. I was going to have it shipped to a friend, who lives up North and can’t find it, in her store.
I found the base and thought it was priced awfully high. I read the first review and couldn’t stop laughing.
It said something like.....I can buy this in my local Piggly Wiggly’s for .98¢. Now, WHY would I spend 5 dollars on this???
I think it had a TON of likes, including mine.

Fascinating! I'm a huge fan of fantasy!ML/NJ
September 22, 2018I'm familiar with this genre as I have read "The Complete History of Life on Tatooine" and "The Last Days of the Empire of Kling" in the original Klingon. Nur Masalha does a wonderful job in combining history and fantasy together to weave a complex story of an imaginary people and their imaginary land! Legendary! Highly recommend for lovers of fantasy. Buy it soon, because it is bound to be a bestseller.
