amazon

Apparently we're actually living in George Orwell's 1984. 

Amazon has come under fire for allegedly creating fake Twitter accounts (under the name "Amazon FC Ambassador") to silence any criticism of the working conditions of its fulfillment centers which, if you're unaware, are known for being particularly sweatshop-like. 

Recently various Twitter users have called out Amazon for this...bizarre (to say the least) behavior. 

So without further ado, here are some of the best parodies and examples of the creepy Orwellian tweets!

As Americans, we're all probably pretty familiar with the "garage" success story in which successful billionaires started out working in humble conditions, such as in a basement or garage until they made it big. This Twitteruser brought up an interesting different viewpoint!

This thread is pretty eye-opening, but we certainly don't want to dominate the discussion here - what do you all think? Are billionaires like Jeff Bezos and Steve Jobs self-made? Or did they receive a little more help than the rest of us along the way?

Sometimes the Amazon delivery people screw up, and that's okay - they're human after all and life goes on. Unfortunately, however, sometimes these screw-ups lend themselves to, shall we say, less-savory happenstances? In this particular case, we're not really sure that these people will live to see the other side of this because it's just so humiliating!

Product and restaurant reviews can be endlessly entertaining. Some people are unintentionally hilarious, showing their high maintenance and incredibly dramatic sides. Other people want you to have fun reading their reviews. These Amazon testimonials definitely fall into the latter category. We're very thankful for the hilarity. 

Whole Foods, which was bought out by Amazon two years ago, announced that it will be cutting prices on many of its traditionally overpriced products. This has come as good news for many, but it's also been met with scrutiny that the products won't be as high-quality as they were in the past. 

Will the hippie supermarket soon shed its infamous nickname "Whole Paycheck"? It's hard to say, but either way, we're bringing you these memes that throw serious shade. If we're being honest, probably most of us still won't be able to afford anything they sell!

Most reviews on Amazon tend to be pretty mundane, but occasionally you stumble across some absolute gems like these. We're not sure how a lot of these reviewers came up with these clever stories, but we salute them for their creativity! So without further ado, let's get into these head-scratching reviews!

Oh boy, Mr. Jeff Bezos sure is in the hot seat right now for his dramatic divorce from wife of 25 years, Mackenzie Bezos. Bezos, currently the world's richest man and Founder and CEO of Amazon, tweeted on Wednesday that he and Mackenzie would be seeking out an amicable divorce after a trial period of separation.

And if you thought that wasn't enough drama for today, economists are speculating that the high-profile divorce could potentially cost Amazon billions of dollars in stock and cause Bezos, who is currently worth $137 billion, to fall down the rankings of the richest people in the world.

But here's the icing on the cake: on Thursday, The National Enquirer released a story alleging that Bezos had had an affair with former TV anchor Lauren Sanchez, along with a text message to Sanchez in which he writes "I love you, alive girl. I will show you with my body, and my lips and my eyes, very soon." Add some risque selfies to the mix and we've got ourselves the perfect recipe for some golden memes and reaction tweets. Eat 'em up!

Receiving the wrong, a bogus, or a bootleg item can be very frustrating - but we'd be lying if we said these pics were anything but riotously funny!

Seattle-based Amazon announced its plans for HQ2 today, stating that its two new locations will be based in Queens, New York and Arlington, Virginia. In honor of such a momentous occasion, we're bring you some excellent Amazon and Jeff Bezos memes for you to get your fill.

As you may have guessed, these Amazon product reviews aren't about the products themselves, but rather the ridiculous amount of effort that these customers put into writing these brilliant masterpieces.

Amazon has permeated all of our lives to some extent, and it's looking like there's more growth still in the company's future. No matter your opinion on Jeff Bezos' baby, we've gotta capitalize on the excellent meme opportunities here!
