Speaker 1 (00:00):
I just gave our show a two star review. It's
Brook and Jeffrey in the Morning.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
I guessing it wasn't out of two stars either.
Speaker 1 (00:08):
The website Amazon gives us everything we could possibly need
in our lives. They have kitchen appliances, same day movie rentals,
the brutally honest children's book Oh the Places You Won't Go.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
That's a dream crusher.
Speaker 1 (00:26):
Yeah, it's like Harvard Dad's other family house. But if
you do have a hole somewhere in your life, Amazon
probably has a product that'll fill it for you.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
I tried not to buy from there because I want
to support local. I still get sucked in.
Speaker 1 (00:45):
The convenience. There's so many positives, But of course, just
like anything, there's always going to be haters. Absolutely, there's
gonna be people who are dissatisfied with their purchase and
they're so upset about it they'll actually take the time
to log on and write a negative review. Well, yeah,
like the other day, I left a two star review
(01:06):
and I told them, honestly, this sixteen ounce can of
lighter fluid didn't make me feel any lighter when I
drank it. Also, the flavor kind of mediocre, Yeah, not
very good. Bet and look. Sometimes the complaints about the
products are legit, yeah for sure, and they're actually helpful,
and other times they're a little out of touch. And recently,
(01:27):
one bad review on Amazon was so out there it
actually went viral. Oh really. It happened after someone purchased
one of those metallic windshield sun reflectors put over.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
The front of your car so that you don't get
like frost on it. And it also does and it
doesn't heat up too hot.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
Well, they gave it three stars and they said, quote,
I do like this product because it keeps my car
nice and cool. But I will say the only defect
I've found is it's very hard to drive with this.
On shut shut, I decided it was best to roll
down the driver's window and stick my head out to
(02:06):
see the roads. But even that is hard because my
eyes dry out very quickly from the wind. Oh my god,
the window. Since then, I've purchased some swimming goggles which
have helped tremendously on the long drives. Who overall, I
would recommend this product, but it definitely takes some time
to get comfortable using it. Oh my god, I hope
(02:29):
that joke. It's hard to tell, yes, the sarcasm never
comes through. It couldn't be real. It's so good either way. Though,
The post was shared on social media and it instantly
blew up, and soon people started sharing other hilarious negative
Amazon reviews posted by angry customers, like this one about
(02:49):
popcorn flavored doggie treats. They gave it one star and wrote,
doesn't taste like popcorn on it because I was excited
to test out the quote new improved taste, Yes, but
they were dry and bland.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
Yeah, I would imagine.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
My dog thought the same thing. Oh, he just looked
at me, like, what the hell is this?
Speaker 2 (03:15):
You know, I appreciate someone it will go that far
from Yeah, I really hope they call.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
It red and barkers so good.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
That's really good.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
You have an opportunity there to make some money. If
you're listening, don't steal that. Keep it in. Here's another one.
A husband gave a bad review after buying a weighted blanket.
He gave it one star and titled his post I
miss my wife, and he said, I never considered the
ramifications of buying this weighted blanket. Sure the wife loves it,
(03:49):
but if you buy it, you'll never be able to
get close to your partner again. It basically creates a
wall of china in bed. It's like she's wearing a
suit of armor and there's no way in. Oh my god,
now I hate this thing.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
It's like walls.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
If you're just joining us, we're talking about the funniest
negative Amazon reviews that people have left on the website
after buying a product. One guy shared his opinion after
getting a carbon monoxide detector off Amazon.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
Please don't tell me it was faulty.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
He gave it one star and said, quote, this does
not work. Alarm sounded as soon as I put the
batteries in and would not stop no matter what I did.
Total piece of garbage. Do not buy.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
That may mean that you have carbon monoxide.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
Also, I'm very lightheaded, going to take a nap.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
They were laughing. I hope he opened it too.
Speaker 1 (04:54):
Also, someone left a bad review after buying the DVD
for Monsters Inc.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
Okay, because they realized they could download it instead of
buy the DVD.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
They gave it one star and just said too many monsters. No,
what did you were like? There was no ink in
it either, just.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
Monsters, dalmatians, way too many dogs.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
And finally, this unfortunate review that somebody gave for a
pocket sized can of pepper spray, says quote. When I
bought this, I thought it was too good to be true,
and of course I was right. Tried one sprits on
my cob salad, which made it virtually.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
Inedible because he said peper spray.
Speaker 1 (05:41):
The peppery taste was way too overwhelming. I nearly threw
up from one bite. Yeah so much. Tried it on
my chicken breast, hoping for better results. No luck, don't
waste your money. Just stick to regular round pepper.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
Yeah please, ye you know, good cook, good cook.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
And now I'm picturing this person getting mugged and holding
up a pepper grinder to the assailate's e text into
