Review inflation...

This is from an email re an eBay item I just ordered: "Delivery [from China] usually need about 20-30 days. ... Please do not leave 1,2,3,4 stars on Shipping Time, they are equal to negative, thank you so much in advance."

 So anything less than five stars these days is "equal to negative"... Can you say "review inflation" kids? I knew you could.

American Dad this season

Is it just me, or has the writing on American Dad gotten much less... sharp this season?
I'm sure at least they've gotten new writers.
An example:
"I said this home needed more culture." 
"You did?! I thought you said it needed more vulture."
