      You have to put an underscore before and after a title to italicise it.
      But someone does seriously need to make that porno a thing.
      Then post it to every porn site ever made, it needs Native American men.
      Put some Native American men in the video and then it's perfect.

      Actually, it's worse than that. Their father would have to have sex with his mother, so that the child is both his daughter and his sister, and THEN he would have to marry his own daughter/sister.

      Umbra 7 let's deconstruct that statement and do a family history
      A man and a woman have a son. It turned out to be a pathological family, parents got divorced. Son remained with mother. Mother lacked a man in her life and made one out of her son, both were in a romantic relationship.
      Unfortunately the mother gets pregnant yet again with her own son. She gives birth to her daughter but died soon after.
      Daughter's brother-father decided to take care of his sister-daughter.
      His past deviant relationship with his mother has left an incest mark on him though. The fucking creep conditioned his sister-daughter into being his lover. She then, brainwashed, married him at some point and, in 2017, decided to buy Wera Christmas calendar for her husband-brother-father.

    Advent Calendar League 2017 Review. 4/5.
    I was looking forward to this series as it features two of my favourite content producers, tat reviewer Ashens and general wierdo Daniel. They were opening 4 calenders each day and assigning points in a league table, but it quickly became clear that the Wera calender was actaully really good, containing a high quality tool set. Eventually they had to change the rules to make it fairer, and Wera still won by a landslide.
    I was expecting comedic antics but the biggest joke turned out to be the calenders themselves. This was not entirely expected and I for one was very pleased. I looked forward to this every day, partly because of how entertaining this car crash of calenders proved to be, but also because I expected my goat sacrifice would not be in vain.
    I had hoped the Dark Master of Grass would make an appearence. He did not.
    This is not to say there was no demonic presence, on one day there was a burned skeletal bird and I am fairly sure Daniel was being slowly posessed via the stamps in one of the calenders, but the One True Mask did not make an appearence. Because of this I not only have to face the fact that my goat sacrifice was a waste, but also that I cannot give this 5 stars.
    Would watch again and I look forward to next year.
    4/5

    • @TheFiercestCreatureInTheWorld
      @TheFiercestCreatureInTheWorld 6 років тому +3

      I actually don't think it's a good calendar. It has good quality stuff in it, but getting the pouch on the first day means there's no surprise as you know that you'll get a piece of screwdriver every day. That kind of ruins the point of the advent calendar, as you could just buy the set on its own and not have to wait to complete it.

    For the sake of my fellow yanks, I checked how these things were reviewed on the American Amazon.
    Paw Patrol: Not sold at all. I was fairly thorough in checking yet I couldn't find it. The two Paw Patrol calendars they *did* have claimed to have either a piece of chocolate or a mini-figure per day, neither of them was the monstrosity witnessed here. If someone does see it, feel free to correct me.
    Bullyland Frozen: *$69.96 + $5.90 shipping.* Unsurprisingly, there are no reviews.
    Cars 3: $25.01 (yes, really). Average star rating of 2.7 from 9 reviews.
    Wera: $77.99. Only 2 reviews, but both gave it 5/5 stars. Personally, I'd say that was a bit of a high asking price, but there's no denying how nice the end product is.

It’s worth no more than 2 pounds and that’s 20 times less than it actually costs, that’s insane. Well, at least we had fun watching them unpack it and lose the hope in humanity every day... and that’s priceless.

    Why has Loot Crate or some other "box-o-tat" service not created an advent calendar?

      The sort of cretins who want to be noticed in the review section of an amazon product page. Probably the same ones that share those "99% of people won't share this..." posts on Facebook.

    For anyone like me who decided to rewatch these videos and wondered what the Amazon scores are now...
    Wera: 4.6 Stars, 547 Ratings
    Frozen: 1 Star, 4 Ratings
    Cars 3: 4.4 Stars, 208 Ratings (a lot of the recent reviews say that the price is okay for Cars toys that are normally sold in blind bags - apparently the really crap Mater goes for £8!!!) and can still be bought for £8.99
    Paw Patrol: 3.8 Stars, 75 Ratings (a lot of the 5 stars are ratings from other countries, which makes me suspect a lot of bot accounts/VPN trickery)

    • @richardpreston7333
      @richardpreston7333 Рік тому

      I got bored and decided to see if the review scores had changed...
      Wera: the 2017 calendar has sadly been taken off Amazon (not _that_ surprising) but you'll all be pleased to know that the 2022 Wera Adventskalendar has 4.9 stars and 120 ratings... however, it's also £76.80 if you want one
      Frozen: 3.8 stars, 120 ratings (apparently a lot of the positive reviews came from Germany, of all places) but thankfully, you can't buy it any more
      Cars 3: still 4.4, but now 230 ratings (it even has reviews from this year saying how disappointed their son was with the flags and cones) but now sold for £12.30 which... I guess is still decent value if you just want the toys?
      Paw Patrol: 3.5 stars, 93 ratings (interestingly, a lot of the more recent non-English reviews gave it 1 star - the French were not amused) Infuriatingly, while this calendar is no longer sold in its 2017 box, it appears to have had all its garbage put into a slightly nicer box, currently selling for £9.99 *_and that's on offer - the original asking price on Amazon is £14.99_* 4.4 stars, 17 ratings (to be fair, there are also Paw Patrol advent calendars that are actually nice and have actual toys in them now, but they also tend to be £30+)

  • @rockerseven
    @rockerseven 6 років тому

    I'm actually reading the reviews along with the video. There are a few that have been added. Someone asked that Grandmother who rated Paw Patrol 5 stars if her grandson ended up liking it lol. Also, under the Cars one, someone wrote: "The little cars are nice, but there are only 5 of them; the rest of the days 'surprises' are absolute junk. we've had 3 little traffic cones, 3 tiny fragile flags and a couple of crash barriers. I feel so sorry for my 3 year old when he looks at his plastic flag then sees what his brother has from his Lego advent calendar."
    Basically, if you're going to get your kid an advent calendar, I think the popular opinion is just go with a LEGO one, or at the very least, one with chocolate in every day.
