Not sure I'd want to read a used copy of Fifty Shades, I'd be worried about stained pages...

[kaishi]

I've never heard of the Wild Animus, and won't touch Fifty Shades with a ten foot pole.

[(Anonymous)]

... What is Wild Animus?

(also I've never read 50 shades. Why would I want that?)

[(Anonymous)]

TBH You're not missing out on anything with 50 Shades. And this is coming from someone who actually submitted a secret a few years ago that was like, "Actually, this book is fun to read."

I never finished 50 Shades. Like with most fanfics I've ever read in my life, I only got so far before I got bored LOL Like, I like elements of the fic - I am willing to buy into the stupid logic in this specific story to indulge the writer and the very specific audience they're writing for - but IDK not enough really drawing me in to commit to finishing it.

Also NGL Dan Olsen's videos on the series is a lot more entertaining than reading the book. Dom Noble's videos about the series/EL James are really entertaining too. Kat Blaque's videos on them are pretty entertaining too. I liked that she was like, "Well, there are people like this in the community but it doesn't mean it's healthy or OK."

The culture around the source provide a lot more entertaining stuff than the actual thing itself IMO

[(Anonymous)]

I haven't read either of them either. I've watched a shit-ton of YT videos discussing FSOG, but I've never actually read it, and I know basically nothing about the other one.

[tabaqui]

I have read neither and, actually, have never heard of the former. So, yay!

[(Anonymous)]

I've never read them, either. I think at most with Fifty Shades, I've seen occasional snippets people have quoted from the book, as a way to show how badly written it is. But that's it. I've never read the series in full and have no plans to.

And this secret is the first I'm even hearing of Wild Animus, so...

[arcanetrivia]

Never read either of them, either. In fact I hadn't heard of Wild Animus before this post.

[(Anonymous)]

I haven't read 50 Shades, but I know what happens in detail because of Discourse.

I haven't heard of the other book at all lol. Maybe I'm living under a rock.

Well, that doesn't mean that people read them.

[(Anonymous)]

I'm absolutely sure some of those were given to people as gifts or whatever and they never read them, just sold or donated them.

[(Anonymous)]

I have only read a tl;rd of Fifty shades of Grey and that was enough for me.

Ditto

[(Anonymous)]

Haven't read either, though when it was new, someone dropped off like a couple dozen Wild Animus boxed sets at the university library I worked at. I think it had the book and a CD or something. I never even took the plastic wrap off. We had a ton of them in lost in found until we just trashed them all.

No, pretty sure you have good taste in music.

Same. I'm deliberately trying to watch sad stuff that will make me cry. Nothing has worked yet.

Picasso's Guernica wants a word with you regarding art, and how its not necessary for it to be beautiful, and can in fact be attractive because it's ugly.

Seriously, though, I think that's the charm. It's reminiscent of 90's cartoons with exaggerated motions and expressions. I like my cute art, but Pizza Tower has IDENTITY.

Hero in canon: has been through some shit. used to have anger issues, but can't even be properly angry any more. gets up and gets going because other people need him to, which is a small solace because he supposes his life still has meaning. he is 45 years old

Hero in fanfic: *weeps upon everything in reach* I just want to be loved and appreciated *trembles in someone's arms or whatever* Truly it was steamy romance that my life was lacking all along
