Default Funny product descriptions

It's just me or some of these descriptions are very funny? (Maybe I
don't train enough, but $340 for chamois cream?!)

That's for a box of twenty -still expensive relative to Bag Balm or
Vaseline.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I don't think it's funny at all. It's a good offer for a *Big ass* bike
rider.

Presumably, that's for a case of 20. It's about $18 per jar most
other places...so their idea of a 10% discount must be from a
different starting point.

I love the admission in the blurb:

For 2006, Mavic is revisiting history with the introduction of
the Ksyrium ES. "ES" stands for "Edition Speciale", which
refers to the fact that this wheel commemorates the "Dixieme
Anniversaire Helium" -- the 10th Anniversary of the Helium.
In fact, it bears virtually almost no resemblance at all to the
original Helium except for its strategic use of the color red -- one
red spoke per wheel, some strategic use of red decals on the rim, plus
red hub flanges on the front wheel and a whole red hub shell on the
rear wheel.
