The worst Amazon reviews are the fake "joke" ones. They're never helpful, clever or funny.
I also want to stab people who respond to Amazon questions with "I don't know" or a question like "Who cares?". If you don't have an answer, then shut the fuck up.
This. This is definitely the worst review type, and it's all over Amazon. "Does anyone know if this ABC works with an XYZ in PRQ mode?", followed by ten responses all saying "I don't know". If you don't know then why the fuck are you posting a reply?

Because Amazon prompts them to do so. Amazon sends emails to people who bought or reviewed a product (or sometimes a completely different product made by the same company whose listings were combined later) asking if they can answer the question, and there's a "I don't know" button which, when clicked, leaves those useless responses. It frustrates me too.
I got one of these, and couldn't tell if it was a directed question, or one of those on the product pages. That was a while a go, maybe they changed their wording.
A dumb friend gave a 1 star review of a product she brought. A truly ridiculous thing. She brought an expensive food mixer and it got delivered next (Prime) but she was not in so they left it the neighbours house. She gave a 1 star review of an expensive food mixer because the delivery guy delivered it next door instead of coming back several times during the day to check if she was back in. I told her she was stupid, you cant not give a 1 star review of a product because the delivery left it next door. She

I realized that is what the âoeI donâ(TM)t knowâ button does a long time ago. I do it every time, even when I do know.

Because Amazon sends question notifications to normies. This is what you get...they think they are still on Facebook.
