As funny as that was, I have to disagree on two things:Capitano Segnaposto said:Why would someone want to read a book about the Mythical Mummies having sexual relations? It is like Rule 34 gone terribly wrong...Lonely Packager said:I've actually never heard any women talk about 50 shades of Grey. Except on the Internet. Oh well, maybe once, but they were talking about how ridiculous it is.
Personally, based on others experiences, I think it's odd that someone would openly discuss porn. Like, you know, sittin'-round-the-dinner-table openly. Calling it 'mummy porn' is kinda weird, too. It's putting a cutesy word before a ... not-so cutesy word. It creeps me out like the term 'kitten bondage' would also.
This is pure comedy! Thank you for linking this.Formica Archonis said:Didn't see it, so I'm going to once again post a link to Jennifer Armintrout's delicious evisceration of Fifty Shades of Grey [http://jenniferarmintrout.blogspot.ca/p/jen-reads-50-shades-of-grey.html]. It's amazing watching a published romance novelist tear into this book, as she has a far better base to understand the tropes in play than someone who doesn't read romance novels. She's starting on the second one now. I am grateful, yet I pity her.
Yup. And if I've understood, it was considered to bad it was laughed of fan fiction sites. And now it's a best seller. It's a strange strange strange world we live in.Tinkotin said:Wasn't 50 shades of grey originally a twillight porn fanfic, and they just changed some names around and re-released it as a porn story?
You...you cannot be serious...That's actually in the book? What...fuck...I...wrtbnsfgsswrotbnqfbAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *huffhuff* Sunofabitch that's bad. That's like...the fuck man?! Seriously, what...the fuck?! Can we just, like, glass the planet? Clearly there is a disease on this Earth that we cannot morally allow the chance to escape.Micromyni said:It's a shitty "erotic" romance novel. They're a dime a dozen,and for me the only thing that was particularly rage-inducing was the abuse disguised as BDSM. The person who wrote this trash has apparently never done any form of bondage or seen it outside porn.
QUOTES FROM THE BOOK TIEM! ?His pointer finger circled my puckered love cave, ?Are you ready for this?? he mewled, smirking at me like a mother hamster about to eat her three legged young.?
I happen to own a copy of this abomination that was foisted on to me, and I have a shit-ton of quotes highlighted. That quote was custom-picked for maximum rage factor.

HOLY SHIT I CAN'T STOP LAUGHING!!!!Geo Da Sponge said:Fifty Shades of Grey, you say? I've practically become a collector of videos doing parody readings of it.

You...you have no idea. Now, I won't purport to being a fan of trashy novels like this, but I have been known to read them from time to time, as they're usually kinda entertaining. But I have never read something so...god damn, I swear I lost a few IQ points reading that.Micromyni said:I happen to own a copy of this abomination that was foisted on to me, and I have a shit-ton of quotes highlighted.

Were you the one who put this here, by any chance?SkellgrimOrDave said:Fifty shades of grey is mills and boone prose, a writing genre that is formulaeic and generic, but popular as banal erotic fiction. Think Chandler's mum's writing style in friends.
Fifty shades of grey just thinks it is edgy because it contains light bondage.
On a side note, I got shouted at by putting a "CAUTION : WET FLOOR" Sign next to a stand of the books in an ASDA (English Wal-mart, owned by Wal-mart).
I was very happy that day.

That has to be the most hilariously unsexy image that can ever be associated with a sex scene, ever. I mean it's impossible to top that for lack of sex appeal. Fuzzy animals eating their disabled children. Fuzzy animals acting in a horrifying manner? Check. An image that when you think about is probably pretty gory? Check. BABY EATING? Check. Congratulations E.L. James, you have unlocked the UNSEXY COMBO ATTACK.Micromyni said:It's a shitty "erotic" romance novel.
