Shills love exclamation points!!

Wow, the HLP isn't even trying to hide its blatant hiring of shills any longer. I guess they're confident (and I can't really blame them for this part) that Amazon's review "system" is so fundamentally flawed and so easily manipulated that there's really no reason to worry about any subterfuge.

For a good laugh, check out the most recent string of five-star posts. I'd almost say they were written by the same person, especially given the titles:

Wonderful Read!

WOW! I enjoyed this book!

Because it's there!

Great backstory on Paul and more!

as always, Herbert & Anderson deliver!

Gee whiz, it's almost like the HLP — most likely in the form of Byron, taking his orders (as usual) from KJA — proided these idiots with a template. And one that uses exclamation points! Wow!

I'm debating about whether or not to entitle my review:

THIS BOOK TURNED MY NIPPLES GREEN!!! (And then they fell off!)

What do you think?

I dont think it would be completely honest review unless you said why it turned your nipples green and fell off. Im sure you could find something though.

False alarm.

I went ahead and used it on a review of Kevin's The Martian War.

At least they didn't turn blue!

Because that would have been strange!

I'm gonna stop using exclamation points!

Ok, I think I've finished...

False alarm!

Blue would've been SO last year.

I figured, moon = green cheese and Martians = little green men, and went with it.

Besides, green goes with my eyes, which are hazel.

(Where is everybody? Dis place iz deyud.

Let's see, Sunday night back there? OK, got it.

My mistake. Green = Martians.

Green also goes well with my eyes too, which are hazel. However, I like calling my eyes green instead of hazel... um, erm I mean down with KJA!

You have the little speckles of yellow-brown and gold, too?

They're mostly green with a brown ring around the pupil. Sometimes they appear grayish in color.
