bad life choices, sweetie. ;_;

YEP

YEP

Yep.

it's like all the shades of his deep psersonality

He's far too like a puppy to make this believable.

but whatever, i'm mourning that someone convinced Charlie that this was a good idea.

superfluously: XD

Well, he keeps saying he's "50 Shades of fucked up" in what I've managed to get through of the book. So I prefer to think it's acknowledging how terrible he is

it has to do that somewhere... please...

Possibly the same person who convinced RPattz that Twilight was a good idea...

litshard: probably. ;_;

shaunmatthew: I can't even think about seeing this train wreak.

meeeee either

i'm just shuddering

and i'm hoping for his sake that he doesn't regret signing on as Christian as much as RPattz regretted Edward.

I don't think RPattz realized just how awful the fandom was.

at least he probably knows what he's getting into? 50 Shades has had a lot more publicity than Twilight did pre-movies

poor RPattz I think legit had no idea what he was getting into and by the time he realized, he had signed a contract for 4 movies

The problem is that most of that publicity doesn't point out how damned abusive the relationship between Christian and Anna is.

yeah.

(Ana, I think. Since it's short for Anastasia.)

it's mostly about how it's "kinky" and "everyone and their mom loves it"

Ah, right. I couldn't remember how many Ns.

yeah, i don't know why i do. XD

Yeah. Nobody seems to look at how they've gone over lists of signs you're in an abusive relationship and so many of them come up in 50SoG.

pretty much all of them. -_-

my mom is kind of a prude and she still loves it and I do not understand why.

Yep. And that's not even getting to all the fuck ups concerning BDSM because somebody can't be arsed to do her research.

(I have not even tried to read it, because I'm pretty sure it would enrage me.)

litshard: I honestly don't mind it that much in fanfic. Like, it's irritating, but it's fanfic. So before she published it, I would've rolled eyes and been like "yeah, whatever, shitty fanfic is a given"

but then she "edited" it (aka did a find-and-replace on names) and it's like REALLY? YOU COULDN'T ACTUALLY TRY TO POLISH IT AT LEAST? BY DOING A LITTLE MORE RESEARCH? NOOO TOO MUCH WORK.

Yeah. Fanfic is one thing. Why the fuck didn't a proper editor have a look at it?

It's added to hospital visits b/c of hte number of people that think ti's accurate to BDSM

And try to do things from it

And get injured

btw standard metal police handcuffs are -BAD-

yeah seriously

And if you want to see a bunch of peole go "..... /HSSSSSSSSSSSS ._." and get an annotated lecture about "this is abuse, thisis consensual BDSM" go onto any decent BDSM board and mention it.

50 shades is my favorite hatedom

mine too, it's pretty epic

i shall hopefully be able to rally the hatedom into a fandom

I think it's contributed to the success of a lot of writers who HAVE done their research.
