Fun fact: Placards of these reviews are scattered around some of the new Amazon buildings in Seattle

I was unable to find my all-time favorite review, which is for a 55 gallon tub of lubricant. Here&#x27;s an excerpt:<p>&quot;So I &quot;took the initiative&quot;, as women like men to do, and rolled the barrel out into the living room. &quot;Ready to tap the keg?&quot; I joked, and by &quot;keg&quot; I meant &quot;55-gallon barrel of personal lubricant.&quot; She looked at me all shocked, and said &quot;That&#x27;s it, I&#x27;m out of here!&quot; I asked why, since she didn&#x27;t need to run to Walgreens for more lubricant - there was plenty right here. But she didn&#x27;t answer, and got up to leave anyway.&quot;<p>Find the rest here: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.amazon.com&#x2F;gp&#x2F;aw&#x2F;review&#x2F;B005MR3IVO&#x2F;R1LF7VHD9NF8GI?ref_=glimp_1rv_cl" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.amazon.com&#x2F;gp&#x2F;aw&#x2F;review&#x2F;B005MR3IVO&#x2F;R1LF7VHD9NF8G...</a>

If you like that there&#x27;s an entire subreddit almost dedicated to funky Amazon reviews: &#x2F;r&#x2F;wtfamazon. Not everything there is great but there often is a few gems :).

The uranium one was good:<p>&gt; &quot;I purchased this product 4.47 Billion Years ago and when I opened it today, it was half empty.&quot;

If you&#x27;re wondering where _A Million Random Digits with 100,000 Normal Deviates_ is, it&#x27;s on the second page.

I was checking if <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;amazon.reviews" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;amazon.reviews</a> existed. Indeed it does, and its sole purpose is to redirect to this page.

Why 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&#x27;t get it.
