Name And Shame
Time to get your knives out, people.
For those of you who have joined this site after reading my Amazon reviews - I have some bad news. There isn't going to be any of those for the next few weeks for one simple reason: Amazon are now CHARGING you for the privilege.
That's right, you now actually have to BUY something before you can review things now. Not the actual thing you're reviewing, thank God (seeing as I only review bad things, that would totally suck) but you just have to buy SOMETHING.
Well, I won't bore you with The Curmudgeon's financial state right now, but what with The Wife(tm) being made redundant and us still having a holiday to save up for, not to mention the usual monthly fees - well, we're not exactly living like P Diddy.
So I will buy something from Amazon, but not just yet (oh, in case you're all blubbing into your hankies thinking that poor old Mr and Mrs Curmudgeon are living like Bob Cratchett - don't. The Wife(tm) got a new, better job - she just hasn't been paid yet).
So, what are we going to do now? Simple - we're going to let YOU, loyal Dweller, review something on this very site.
Not just any old thing. Ohh no. The Curmudgeon has always prided himself on having the Official Room 101 of Amazon.com, and so to continue that tradition you have to nominate something awful (or something you consider awful) to be inducted. A pithy excuse or a rant would be most appreciated.
Room 101 awaits....

It absolutley SUCKS, doesn't it? What's the logic behind it anyway? I NEVER buy anything from Amazon, never have and, besides this one thing to let me review again - never will either.
