This is really the way you need to look at things. I hate having to repurchase something something because I bought a PoS, so I take time to read a few of the reviews. It’s amazing come idiotic some of them are, and painfully obvious when the reviewer has no idea how to properly use the product.

I seem to recall London bridges are always falling down.

Wait what? Why does the price of gas determine how long a tank lasts you?

You also live in a postage stamp of an island, with six times the population density, a Tory government, and an economy slightly smaller than California.

I’m confused. Do you drive less because gas is more expensive? Are you driving a different car? I mean, all things being equal, higher cost of gas = more money spent. How does a tank which costs $60 to fill somehow last twice as long as the same tank which previously cost $40 to fill?

My 2018 Nissan Leaf will cost me about $63 more this year...

Amazon needs some sort of algorithm to weed out all those “UPS left my package in the driveway and a dog ate it” reviews.

Boy howdy is that ever right! I’ve seen 1-star reviews that practically glow with praise for the product. Apparently, 1 is best, and 5 is worst in that person’s mind. I’ve seen low ratings for “It was broken when I received it. I returned it, and we’ll see how it works when I get one that isn’t broken.” I’ve seen low…

I like to write reviews, and when I write negative reviews (which, let’s face it, is often when you’re motivated to write a review) I try to be really detailed for this reason. What was wrong? Whose fault was it? Did you tell anyone at the time? How did they respond? I always appreciate reviews that say something like…

Correction: you can’t trust online stars. The reviews themselves reveal whether or not the star rating is reliable. Generally I will read a few reviews from each category.

meanwhile the tax break is netting me more than the increase in fuel costs for my 2011 ram ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 

Sorry we forced you to read it, here’s your money back :(

We think, “In this industry, it’s all who you know,” and the “who” stands for those in power, for those at the top of the food chain. The context has become “if I make friends with people at the top, I could be at the top one day too.”

I’ve always thought it’s also[more?] about the what you know about the who you know... not that any of that’s ever done me any good; nobody ever tells me anything.

I would like to kindly point out that the steak story is a complete fabrication. The evidence of this is simple: It is not physically possible for a steak to be too under cooked. Perfect and overcooked are the only two possible states a steak can be in.

T-Mobile may be the fastest in Philly, but that’s only when you happen to get full bars. When I had it, I would get zero bars when I was close to tall buildings, in the supermarket, or in my own bathroom.

Look, we’re fine with the sexual misconduct just so long as those guys didn’t step on the grass at the Memorial Student Center…

In a completely (un)related response, A&M just cut the men’s swimming and diving program.

I love raisins, they’re sweet, they’re healthy, they stick together so I can eat an entire box in one bite, and you get to pretend like you’re mercy killing elderly grapes! In so many ways they are a perfect little snack, but if I take a bite out of what I think is a chocolate chip cookie and realize that it’s…
