50 Shades of Grey!

[Josy]

Is anyone else sick to death of hearing about this over hyped over rated ****ty book?

I am surrounded by people that wont stop going on about it!!!

Just piss off!

I'm ashamed to say this was what one of my friends posted earlier on FB :bored:

txt my pal telling her I'm off 2 buy the 2nd shades of grey! she txts back she's already readin it n could I get her some more batteries while I'm out!!! aha quality...

FGS go and find a man or something.

[Me. I Am Salman]

YES!!
Only 30 mins ago someone I follow on Twitter tweeted this

Cannot wait for 50 shades of Grey movie... :)

:bored:

[Smithy]

Im sick of people complaining about it, Im pretty sure if it wasn't for people bitching on tumblr I'd have never of heard of it :shrug:

[Smithy]

could I get her some more batteries while I'm out!
:o

[Josy]

I wouldnt mind people going on about it if it was only a few comments here and there, but seriously my fb has been over run with it.

[Marc]

50 shades of Brown

- The anal outtake

[Locke.]

Wouldn't have a clue what it was if it wasn't for BrotherLeon saying he was going to buy it a few days ago

[InOne]

Almost as bad as all the bloody Hunger Games nonsense.

[Vicky.]

The movie will be good. Apparently Ian somerhalder is being cast as the dude in it :amazed:

[Smithy]

omg just go watch some porn vicky fgs it's a lot classier

[Vicky.]

If Ian had done porn, I would. But he hasnt. And porn stars are usually vile and old with hitler moustashes anyway :bored:

[GypsyGoth]

:laugh2:

Well this changes everything tbh :laugh:

You have fantastic taste dear josy :wink:

[Niall]

This book just needs to stop. Have people not heard of fanfiction before?

99.9% of the smutty fanfiction I've read trounces this garbage (judging from the dirty scenes I've heard via YouTube videos anyway). I don't understand how anyone would willingly pay money for a book where a man says to a woman "Don't worry, you expand too" in response to her horror at his erection. I mean seriously. Its awful omg.

[Chuck]

I'm gonna buy it for my mother's birthday.

[Black Dagger]

My brother downloaded it for some unknown reason on his I-pad to check out the hype, so I was like reading some today myself.

The slash fanfiction I read on Fanfiction.com is VASTLY SUPERIOR tbh :idc:

Good for light-reading though tbh.

[Chuck]

I'm obviously the one interested in reading it though.

[Princess]

Yes to everything on this thread. There's way better written fanfiction and far better books. And people seem to think it's just the best thing ever, so annoying.

[InOne]

Isn't it off the back of all that Twilight crap?

[Niall]

Isn't it off the back of all that Twilight crap?

Yeah. It started out as a Twilight fanfiction, but the woman who wrote it changed the setting and characters and somehow got it published.

[InOne]

Well I 100% blame all the Twilight fans then. I'm looking at you Vicky :suspect:

[Mrluvaluva]

I see friends and family harping on about it all the time on FB. :sleep:

[King Gizzard]

[King Gizzard]

The joke that has been rehashed about 430934834 times on twitter is more annoying

''Just bought 50 shades of Grey, don't see what the fuss is about tbh''

[Shaun]

it's objectively terrible

[reece(:]

Glad the hype has died down, think it's a load of tosh. Just some kinky author writing a whole load of rubbish.

[Doogle]

I still hear the title every single day from somewhere

[Marsh.]

I can't believe this immature 50 year old woman who wrote dirty dreams about Twilight has earned money from this tosh.

Have these housewives never heard of porn?

[Maia]

Been wondering what this random "50 shades of grey" term refers to. Sounds a bit pathetic

[Marsh.]

The guy's called Grey, geddit?

How clever she must feel.

[Mystic Mock]

It is annoying as why read Porn when you can watch it?:joker:

[Jessica.]

:bawling: I went in the kitchen the other day and my mother was sitting there reading the THIRD book. :bored: I don't want to live on this planet anymore.

[Doogle]

How do you fill 3 books? They shagged end of.

[Mystic Mock]

There's 3 books of that thing?:shocked: anyway I will only watch the film version if someone like Emelia Clarke is in it.

[Josy]

My other 50 shades thread is better...

*goes to bump*

[Vicky.]

Apparently there is actually a storyline in the second/third one besides just shagging

Or so my mother told me when I told her the books were ****e and just basically written porn.

Ah, so then it crosses into the typical soppy love novel section I'm guessing. :bored:

The whole thing is ridiculous and I will never understand the popularity

[billy123]

Its all the old uns have got bless them i loaded up my mums kindle with a list of books she wanted and i whacked the 50 shades books on as well and she said "well i dont know why you put that on there i have heard about that" i went round yesterday and had a look and she is half way through the second book the kinky cow :bored:

[Vicky.]

My mum keeps making comments that my dad should read the books to pick up on some tips.

The very thought of it makes me feel ill tbh. God bless my little brother who has to put up with them all the time.

[Mystic Mock]

It's a bit strange seeing women like this though as they are more reserved sexually than guys 9 times out of 10, I can't believe what this book is doing to some of them lol.

It's not meant as an attack if that's what you was thinking.:joker:

Oh Mock, so young, so naive

[Mystic Mock]

Oh Mock, so young, so naive

Aren't we the same age?:joker:

[Marsh.]

Lol, it's not just shagging though. Doesn't he beat the crap out of her, hardly something to aspire to or want to be involved in. lol

Quite sick actually.

[Mystic Mock]

I've heard stuff like that aswell, it's kind of like Conor Mcintyre's safe haven with that part.:joker:

I think theres a bit where some bird puts her finger up his bum or summat like that as well they just pad it out with stuff like that.

[Niall]

I want to read this version tbh:

An excerpt from the first chapter:

I growl with frustration at my reflection in the mirror. My hair is fifty shades of messed up. Why is it so kinky and out of control? I need to stop sleeping with it wet. As I brush my long brown hair, the girl in the mirror with brown eyes too big for her head stares back at me. Wait . . . my eyes are blue! It dawns on me that I haven’t been looking into the mirror—I’ve been staring at a poster of Kristen Stewart for five minutes. My own hair is fine.

The first one is a cat and mouse smut game between the two main characters. The second one has a heart and quite an enjoyable story if you're a sucker for love [I.E. me], the third one is a boring random next episode trudge that squeezes far too much in yet develops almost nothing and ends as you would expect.

So I actually enjoyed them somewhat. Obviously they're terribly written but people raise enjoying naff films to the level of consumerist art nowadays. I wonder when the same courtesy will extend to the literary world? The idea that they're books means you have to sort of approach the medium with trepidation and only read the finest, quality screened books that have critic approval shagging all over the back covers.

Besides ... getting a boner whilst reading a book is fun.

[Marsh.]

I think it's slightly different. Reading a book usually takes a longer time, so it has to be good for me to make the effort.

A ****e film can just play as background noise.

I agree. Takes far too much time and effort to waste on a s**t book

[Vanessa]

I love 50 Shades Of Gray. But i keep picturing Brendan as Gray and Ste as Ana! :joker::evilgrin::wink:

[Shaun]

and in other news the sky is blue

[Mystic Mock]

Really? I always thought the sky was orange.

[Vanessa]

No! It's yellow! :joker:

[Mystic Mock]

No I just heard that it's green.

Why did you read it when you knew it was ****e :suspect:

[Vicky.]

Absolultely rubbish isnt it? :laugh:

I only read a few chapters..because everyone was bleating on about how great it was. Amazing how so many people can be plain wrong :bored:

[Ramsay]

what a fantastic book...one of the all time greats i think

[Lee.]

Well a lot of my friends raved about it, and I thought it would be a nice easy read for holidays. :bored:

[GiRTh]

All these ladies dissing 50 shades. I bet you were all frothing while reading it. Admit it ladies. :pipe:

[Vanessa]

I love 50 Shades of Gray. Can't wait for the movie. :amazed:

[Lee.]

Not at all! Honestly... It could have been a really erotic tale but it was ruined by repetitive crap writing

Yes, they are. I quite like the story. I hope they don't change it too much.

[Niamh.]

Lee I told you to read GoTs :nono: why didn't you listen to me?

[Ramsay]

dont listen to niamh's lies lee. 50 shades is a million times better than game of thrones

[Lee.]

Lee I told you to read GoTs :nono: why didn't you listen to me?

:( I actually wish I had listened to you miamh.. I read a few other books there too but nothing great. I just thought game of thrones would be a bit hard going for holidays. Sorry Niamh. I will listen to you in future.

[Jessica.]

I read it ages ago to see what the hype was all about. Utter Crêpe.

[Marsh.]

Lee I told you to read GoTs :nono: why didn't you listen to me?

From one smutty novel to another. :laugh: One disguised as a love story, the other as an epic.

[Niamh.]

You make me sick Karl http://i.imgur.com/hXib4GX.gif

at least the the author of 50 Shades can actually finish a series without taking 50 years

:suspect: you asked for recommendations on here and then went against forum advice :hmph: take my hat off to you for getting past chapter 2 though.

Weird sex is fine if its described well.., not by overusing phrases such as "holy fuk" and "he tore open the foil packet" and "stop biting your lip" on EVERY ****ing page. Repetitive dull nonsense

well let's just say if you like nipple twisting, you'll like the GOT books

[Roy Mars III]

also lots of passages about lemon cakes

[Lee.]

:suspect: you asked for recommendations on here and then went against forum advice :hmph: take my hat off to you for getting past chapter 2 though.

Hahaha.. I know. I read a really grim thriller before it and just fancied something a bit more light hearted... And I honestly thought all those millions of women can't be wrong... Erm well they are :bored:

[Niamh.]

He does spend a lot of time describing the food

[Niamh.]
