Free Hugs!

So I was in town today and some random guy was holding a sign up with 'Free Hugs' on it and people were actually going up to him and hugging him, it was kinda funny.

I was sorting the blog out and couldn't figure out why the ads weren't appearing, it turns out adblock was guess what,,,blocking them! I felt like such an idiot.

The funniest review I have ever read.

I was looking for a new steering wheel to replace an Xbox 360 controller I use on the PC for a better experience. When I look at different items, I always have to read the reviews, comments etc...At first I was looking at the more expensive wheels around the £60 - £100 range. There were some good ones and I started to look at the cheaper JUST in case there was a good one. Then I seen one for just £19.99, it was called Easy Touch Joy-Steering Wheel and as usual I checked the reviews/comments and came across an hilarious review for it.

His problems started right from the start, the delivery man:

'What a load of rubbish. Well, it all started when the delivery man couldn't talk. I asked him where to sign and he was pointing all over the place. I finally found where to put my signature, so i took the package into my house so i could open it. What a disaster! when I ripped open the green - cheaply made - plastic bag, the bottom of the box fell out! So the periphial fell on the floor. Once I looked around the box there was rips and marks and it was all ready open! Once I installed all the drivers for the wheel I was ready to go. Uh-oh!

I got everything set and i touched the wheel, urgh. Cheap plastic. And so was everything else. The brakes had hardly no feedback too them (Too flimsy and soft) and the gear leaver moved in a 360 degree motion when it was supposed to only be forward and backward positions. The handbrake was a waste of time as well, yo pull it p and it feels like it will come clean off! The worst bit about it is that the wheel onlywent around 90 degress, when it was supposed to be 150! Another thing, the instruction manual. English it said. What english? All it is was some chinese bloke sitting there at a random foriegn warehouse printing letters randomly.

I am sending this item back for a full refund. And I am them going to buy the Trust GM-3200. I only brought this "Easy Touch Joy-Steering wheel" for a replacement to my Tust GM-3400.

AVOID THIS ITEM LIKE THE PLAGUE!!!'

This had me laughing for ages and just had to read it more than once, you kinda feel sorry for the guy who wrote it.
