There's a growing trend, which I believe started with the Three Wolf Moon shirt, of people using Amazon as a platform for humorous product reviews. Today a great one making the rounds is the "Laptop Steering Wheel Desk". Here's a snippet of the funniest (of many) comment:
Wow is this thing great! I use it as a "mini-bar" when the friends and I go out to the bars. I can quickly fix multiple shots of tequila for myself and the friends as we drive from one bar to the next.
Have you seen any other comedic reviews? If so post them in comments and we'll highlight them.
P.S. Check out the product images - almost better than the reviews here.
Here is another good one:
"My copilot and I both used these during our "daily grind" transcontinental flights from San Diego to Minneapolis. We had to modify them a bit to fit snug against the instrument panels (when we bought them we didn't realize the planes we fly don't have steering wheels!), but in the end it did the job. With our laptops firmly in place we were able to focus our attention on what really mattered, participating in raids with our WoW clan. During our last flight we were so immersed in trying to take down Eranikus that we overshot Minneapolis by a full hour and a half before some annoying flight attendant interrupted us, babbling something about "FAA and F16 fighters."
We'll definitely use this product again at our next gig, whatever and whenever that happens to be...
Highly recommended!"

Even older than the 3 Wolf Shirt is the Bic Biro that got hit with some fantastic reviews:
