I find it irritating to read reviews, increasingly. Many people cite George Orwell's advice not to keep saying "I think," because everyone knows that if you're saying it, you think it. But there's this spoiled brat tone in the average unhappy review. It isn't just that you didn't like it, or it didn't work for you, or the one shipped to you was defective. It's this is a piece of junk, this is horrible, this is hideous, this doesn't work at all, nobody should ever buy this, etc, etc, etc. I find it so off-putting it's almost nauseating. I hate the imperious tone of a consumer who didn't get what they were hoping for, and wants everyone to know this is the worst.
