    I'm lost. What's has happened? I've seen the Veet reviews in the past and they are hilarious and true.

    I know! When I came across it about three years ago I spent the complete afternoon reading them out to the office with tears rolling down my face, I still remember "do not put on nob and balls". Genius.

    There are similar reviews for duct tape.

    Maybe it was posted on the wrong board.

    This is 'Praise, Vent & Warnings'.
    Perhaps it would have gone down better on The Arms or Funny Money.....?

    I didn't read the original post and haven't read the reviews of the product.

    If anyone finds those product reviews offensive then they must be very new to the internet and should throw away their router before they come across something which is offensive! :P

    The offence came from the pm you sent, not the content of the thread didn't it??

    I tend to agree. This is an old story been doing the rounds for ages and whilst amusing I think sending a PM to someone who points that out is a bit OTT.

    By all means post it, perhaps a different board might have been more appropriate, but a PM, really?
