Right then.  If Terry Ravenscroft was half as funny as he thinks he is, he'd be twice as funny as he really is - and even then he still wouldn't be that funny.I read the free sample, and it was more than enough.  To those who would indignantly exclaim, "That's unfair!  One can't judge the whole book based on the free sample!" I reply, "Yes one can.  That's the whole purpose of the free sample.  And look at it this way:  if one finds that the first bite of a sandwich is not to one's taste, one needn't consume the whole thing just to confirm that one really, really doesn't like it."So-I'd suggest that you try the free sample.  To me, it appears that Mr. Ravenscroft has more spare time on his hands than he has good sense, and he occupies that time by annoying customer service representatives who he knows can't reply to him with, "Why don't you fork off, you bloody great tosser, and quit wasting the time of the gainfully employed who are just trying to earn an honest living?"If instead, you find it to be a screamingly brilliant, satirical comment on pop-culture consumerism, then good on ya.The grammar, sentence structure, and editing are very good - hence two stars.
