This Amazon review that's going viral is a brilliant fake
THIS ONE IS SO good, you’ll want to believe it’s real.
This Amazon review has captured the hearts of people worldwide – it details “a mother’s struggle” to keep her house stocked with tissues, as she has three sons who go through a great deal of them for, ahem, personal reasons.
People rushed to offer their sympathies and empathise with the woman on Twitter, with some even wishing she was their mother:
Unfortunately, the review is not by a real-life struggling mother but James Thach, a children’s author who has become notorious for his spoof Amazon reviews. Take this one, about the spice cardamom, or this one, for an axe.
He’s also behind one of the reviews for the €30,000 TV, which lead him to be interviewed for US news channel CBS.
Do we wish a real mother wrote this review? Yes. Do we still think this guy’s a genius? Absolutely.
