MilagroB wrote: "The Twenty Reasons Why Unpaid Indie Reviewers Review1) They're college professors who must publish or perish. GR reviews now count as long as they ignore the book and use their essay to make pro-commie, pro-homo, or anti-Trump statements. Their circle jerk likey-likey system provides the status inherent in a top 100 ranking and uncontainable fun.
2) They're grammar school teachers who have come to feel very smart after having spent their adult lives surrounded by eight year old, fellow nose pickers.
3) They aspire to ascending to 1) and/or 2).
4) They seek a propitious niche in their forsaken and betrayed world of lit mavenhood.
5) They still think that by obviously being pathetic losers they’ll get sympathetic “likes.”
6) Despite having their faces pissed on, they still love the cruel, masterful owner of the site.
7) What else can one do with a B.S. in an un-needed, thereby unmarketable subject from a less than “B” school?
8) They think they have the final word, and cry uncontrollably if contested, while staunchly in pursuit of one of the declining number of sales clerk jobs in actual brick-and-mortar bookstores.
9) They are able to influence a few weak willed, sissy suckers.
10) Lack of any discernable approximation of a life scientifically determined to be beyond that of a clumsy, but cute panda.
11) An all too convenient lack of ambition.
12) A desire to revel in aggrandizing the banal, and denigrating the excellent; thinking that serves as a cover for their twisted rejection.
13) They’re actually a foreign bot with an agenda of US sabotage.
14) Their only real life bf-gf left them for a deformed, imaginary rodent, leaving them an infinite supply of free time.
15) They like it a lot that pitiful indie writers suck up to them like any crippled predator would a Parks Department groundskeeper.
16) Some weirdo with possible ulterior motivations told them that they were “special” at age thirteen, and they still believe it, despite all evidence to the contrary.
17) Without much usefulness or talent, they can become a respected member of the upper echelon at the barrel’s bottom.
18) They once wrote an un-noted, shithole book, upon which they can now get a quid pro quo in the loser circle jerk circuit.
19) The warehouse boss isn't always watching.
20) They were blessed with one chromosome too many."
Well, where to even begin?

horror, adj. inspiring or creating loathing, aversion, etc.
