A Mother Takes Over Amazon Customer Service

From McSweeney's. This is so funny. Click the link above to read it all.

Dear Customer:
Did you know you can update your customer profile at any time? We noticed you hadn't yet included your current marital status or information about what kind of bachelor's degree you hold. We do recall you mentioning before that this is not the place for such information, but it still couldn't hurt. Who knows who might come across it and be inclined to pick up the phone and call? We'll go ahead and add this for you.


Love always, Amazon

P.S. Was this message helpful? As part of our ongoing mission to provide you with top-notch customer service, we'd like your feedback.
