- gwern 9y agoIf you're wondering where _A Million Random Digits with 100,000 Normal Deviates_ is, it's on the second page.
- virtuallynathan 9y agoFun fact: Placards of these reviews are scattered around some of the new Amazon buildings in Seattle
- p4bl0 9y agoIf you like that there's an entire subreddit almost dedicated to funky Amazon reviews: /r/wtfamazon. Not everything there is great but there often is a few gems :).
- andreygrehov 9y agoWhy is it on the front page and, most importantly, why is it #1? Just because Amazon selected top 3 most helpful reviews for some random products? I honestly don't get it.
- tacomonstrous 9y agoI was unable to find my all-time favorite review, which is for a 55 gallon tub of lubricant. Here's an excerpt: "So I "took the initiative", as women like men to do, and rolled the barrel out into the living room. "Ready to tap the keg?" I joked, and by "keg" I meant "55-gallon barrel of personal lubricant." She looked at me all shocked, and said "That's it, I'm out of here!" I asked why, since she didn't need to run to Walgreens for more lubricant - there was plenty right here. But she didn't answer, and got up to leave anyway."

- sokoloff 9y agoThe uranium one was good: > "I purchased this product 4.47 Billion Years ago and when I opened it today, it was half empty."
- ithkuil 9y agoI cannot resist picking nits: shouldn't it be: "... when I opened it today it was half lead?"
- Artemis2 9y agoI was checking if http://amazon.reviews http://amazon.reviews existed. Indeed it does, and its sole purpose is to redirect to this page.
