Not sure if this had been posted before. A quick search says no. This is great.

Man, I wish I had the time to write amusing stuff like that. Ah, to be young again. (but this time with the Internet)

I have never been so deeply touched by a review on Amazon. Truly amazing.

I enjoyed this comment:

"This is preposterous and has no place in Amazon."

RainMaker · 01-08-2009, 04:21 PM

His other reviews are a riot too.

Unfortunately he only seems to have four. The galvanized bucket review was pretty good. Anyone else notice the Indian chair book is around $500??

"Stupid Kindle edition doesn't have a shiv."

The comments on the review are almost as funny.

Not a book review, but a series of awesome reviews for an "audiophile grade wall socket"

For reviews of overpriced scams, the $500 ethernet cable which has a 4 star rating in the "Ripoff" category.

I don't get it -- why are these things so expensive on there?

Same reason HDMI cables sell for ridiculous prices at Best Buy, people are willing to pay that much if they can be duped into believing they're better quality.

EDIT: The outlet and cable anyway, just looked the the milk and that is just a joke by the sellers.

I guess the joke started on the milk years ago when it was just being sold on Amazon for $3.99. I only looked it up because it was mentioned in the review for the outlet, then I liked the first review so I linked it here.
