Please send complaints to Barnes & Noble

This review is currently the only one for Poodle Hat on the B&N website.

When I tried to complain to them, the email repeatedly failed to go through.



Here's how it reads:
Shlomo Fitzgerald, 20 year old stock boy,
This one is a riot!
I can only think of three words to describe this album: F-U-N! It is a blast! My friends and I put this cd in at a party last weekend. Everyone was really cracking up to it. We were doing the hussle and the boogie all night, old friend. It all started when my friend Royce broke out the airplane model glue and passed that around the table. We were majorly high from that and started into huffin' the air from the whipped cream can. Talk about the perfect time to pop in some Weird Al! I ain't no scallywag! Whoa! So, anyhow, we decided to rub peanut butter all over our bodies and have a wrestling match. Don't get the wrong idea when I tell you that, kiddo. We were all so carried away in the moment. We stole my dad's Lincoln and went out plowing mailboxes. Big mistake! The car got trashed and we got busted the next morning. There are some really good tracks on here. My favorite one is Al's take on Nelly's "Must be the money". He turns it into "Must be the honey"! I recommend this to anyone who enjoys a good comedy cd.


Even if this is a big joke, (in poor taste, I might add), we need to them to

remove it. I think this guy was so wasted he didn't even know what he was listening to.



And, no, I'm not trying to be a Nazi about it. The guy gave "Al" 5 stars, but the review is too messed up to be counted.

I sent an email to them, asking for a professional courtesy and to remove the review, as it makes them look bad. Let's see if they respond.

yea, it's okay to try to be funny (even if you're not), but saying Al did a song called it must be the honey is inaccurate- people reading the review will actually think Al did that song.

(Randy Savage voice) oh yeah!!



heh no but seriously Squirrelygirl is right, that should not be up there as a review, even if he did give "Al" 5 stars.. I don't even think he knew what he was listening to! I'd say the first like two sentences are good, then it goes into crap on how they got high and stuff *sighs* it just doesn't make any sense



Hopefully they do take it off!

Thank you Jon. I kept pounding on my computer screen trying to get my e-mail through to them, but for some odd reason that didn't work :huh: Go figure.

Wow, sg. That is so wrong! I will certainly put my 27 cents in. And thanks, Jon , for sending them an email.



Patti



P. S.



Is there an email address to contact B&N? I didn't see one there. That review is still up. Grrrr.

I had to go to the customer service e-mail to get anything through to them. Every time I tried under the

Rules/corrections url, it gave me an error message.
