People! Just because Amazon emailed you

and asked you to answer a question about a product or to review another product, that doesn't mean you have to do it. If you can't answer the question, or can't review the item, then you shouldn't say anything at all.

Amazon isn't going to hold all future purchases hostage until you comply! You can just nope out of all of that and go do something else with your time.

Relatedly, Amazon, get your shit together and pay somebody to read over answers and reviews, and delete any that say "Sorry, I can't answer this, I haven't used the product yet". You are pretty much minting your own money. You can afford this. (Amazon, you can afford to do a lot of shit, actually, but let's not start on that.)

No school tomorrow, because of the election.

I think I'll make pancakes.
