Someone on Google reviewed my local cemetery. One star rating, because it made them sad to drive past it. Why even allow reviews on a cemetery?!

- ilikehurdles 8y agoI love that some of the reviewers are even labeled "Local Guide"s
- arkitaip 8y agoSomeone once gave 5 stars to a business project that I had created but never launched (no business, product or service with zero customers) but which had a Google Business listing. I suspect people routinely fake review places to inflate their egos but also because Google offers them real benefits.
- icebraining 8y agoWhy not? Some cemeteries around here are beautiful, and worth visiting. Plus like any other public service, they can be badly run, and it might be worth warning others who are planning to be buried there about it.
- vatueil 8y agoDoesn't hurt to have the option, I guess. If a place doesn't need reviews then it probably doesn't care about bad reviews, and sometimes the reviews are useful nevertheless or at least funny. See: https://m.xkcd.com/1803/ https://m.xkcd.com/1803/
