Post by: RoosGirl on October 12, 2017, 03:24:43 pm
Get excited, “Fifty Shades of Grey” fans, because a new novel is headed your way.

Famed author E.L. James announced Tuesday she will be releasing a new novel in the series, but this time, she will tell the story from Christian Grey’s point of view instead of the original protagonist, Anastasia Steele.

This is the first article under the "Nation and World" section at the Palm Beach Post so it must be important.

Wow. This should be dynamic....

A woman telling a story from a man's perspective.  I'm pretty sure we give men far more credit than they deserve when it comes to wondering what complex thoughts are swirling around in their heads most of the time.

We're not all that complicated: sports, women, and beer. Only not in that order.

How dare you. Some of us have very complex thoughts swirling around all the time. My sexual fantasies are very elaborate and complicated.

Hey, let me ask you this.  How long does it take for you to immobilize a man with a 4ft piece of hemp rope?

I have absolutely no personal interest in the BDSM scene.  I am strictly vanilla.  But I feel it is my duty to read this so I can keep my finger on the pulse of modern society.

There is no time where I immobilized a man with a 4ft piece of rope........despite what the police report said. My lawyer got that charge knocked down to Mopery with Intent to Creep with time served.

That's what concerns me. All the sensible people moved on but you're still here. It worries me a little bit. Should I be scared?

Books not hurricane good. It's more of a twister through a trailer park.

Hah, I had to look it up to see if that was the actual name of the second book.

Nah. I was just joking. The actual title is "Fifty Shades II: Tied In Knots".

You are changing the subject and avoiding the question I asked.

You need to clarify the question, as the way you phrased it it is not clear who has the 4ft hemp rope.

If you're going to include Weinstein I think it needs to be:

Normally I would agree with you, and see the error in how I phrased the question, but I think with this particular question, and who is being asked, it does not have an effect on the answer.

Really, when we're not here talking politics, there's not a lot of complex thought going on.  A person observing a male  at rest might think he's thinking great thoughts contemplating his navel and all that philosophical claptrap, but mostly he's probably just wondering how all that lint got into his navel.

That sounds like guys who say they only buy Playboy for the articles and tech info. Which are the only reasons I ever looked at a Playboy.  (looks around for lightning to strike)
