Oh fucking Irbis: "Using profits from a gun range membership dues and rentals to fund a summer camp is the same as organized crime doing it."

huh?

Fifty Shades of Grey is a 2011 erotic novel by British author E. L. James. Set largely in Seattle, it is the first installment in a trilogy that traces the deepening relationship between a college graduate, Anastasia Steele, and a young business magnate, Christian Grey. It is notable for its explicitly erotic scenes featuring elements of BDSM.

Oh right, that. A few of my friends on FB were going on about it but I'd forgotten it exists.

audible keeps recommending the 3rd book despite my never having purchased anything like it or even looking at them while browsing

also i can only imagine how creepy having someone read an explicit sex scene into my headphones would be

You've given me a terrible idea... though I wonder if Uranium would be a better fit for it.

A weird observation I just had on SDN, anywhere else on the internet it's the pro-gun side acting like a bunch of crazed fanatics 'government tyranny roar' and all that jazz, but on SDN it's the anti-gun side that turns into a bunch of foaming at the mouth lunatics.

Some of them are pretty fucked. Like "the gun is evil and makes you kill/

the well has been poisoned so effectively by both sides that rational calm discussion is impossible

Yup.

Look, everybody knows the mind-control "go out and mass-murder people" radiation generator is located in the stock and/or grip of every gun ever made.

Well duh, the obvious answer is people should be wearing their tinfoil hats like I told them.

Clearly I should coat mine with lead.

He is not.

I know forums where gun control and Israel vs Palestine are both banned, even where other politics stuff is permitted, because they both lend themselves to brainless bickering.

Red mentioned on thevold board that IvP is banned because Wong can't keep his mouth shut on it. So yeah, it's because the TOBC has a lot of idiots.

Maybe Dalton should just b& Mike.

So they're bodice rippers without Fabio on the cover, plus nipple clamps and ball gags because why the fuck not? And THEY were the top...selling...books last week? How refined. My fellow Americans are fucking perverts. I think I'll go do something wholesome and shoot human silhouettes at the range this weekend, I could use the cleansing.

Well that would explain why I oil and carress and talk baby talk to my Raven .25 and then, every time I shoot it, scream out "UNNNNlimmitteddPOOOWEEER!" Holy shit I'm sick. How much tinfoil do I need in my AFY ball cap to block the must murder rays o'doom?

Don't tell me, you turn the lights off when having sex and only in missionary, and only for procreation, right? Did you cry yourself to sleep while masturbating as a teenager?

Wow Zod, hou have me pegged to a tee have you been peering in my bedroom window all my life? I am flabberghasted at your keen insight into my psyche, here's to you!

I'm actually more annoyed that a frickin' series of bondage Harlequin novels are the bestselling books right now. Is print literature a TEO wasteland now too?

BTW, good luck guessing who's on the bestseller lists between Skanks of Gray and Hunger GamesRunning Man novels.

the 50 shades trilogy are the top three best sellers at almost every local chain bookstore

canada is not immune to the lure of the erotic novel

turns out sex sells

who the fuck knew

Everyone's an idiot about something. They just need the right stimulus.

I don't think I've ever met someone who was reasonable about everything anyone could ever ask them. Calm, maybe. Smart-sounding, maybe. Reasonable? Nah.

That other forum I was talking about, they decided after like six identical IvP conversations that it wasn't worth bothering with them anymore because the people running the forum didn't give a shit and wanted people to stop wasting time.

Seemed fair to me.
