Just post whatever comes to mind.
Please refrain from excess venting in this thread. Talking about negative emotions is fine but it's best not to dwell on them for too long. TV Tropes is not suited to deal with mental health situations.
If Oscar Wilde had lived in our time, he would be a /b/tard.
Actually, scratch that. He does, and goes by Jethro Q Walrustitty.

I should hope not either. The only thing 50 Shades of Grey should be a member of is a cemetery.
Heaven is a tropical rainforest.Imagine if 50 shades was adapted into a shonen with BSDM themed attacks that the inaccuracy of such was constantly lampshaded......
I'd still avoid it like the plague.
@181781: You know, I've never actually heard a plot summary before. The man could theoretically be turned into the villain rather than the Designated Hero he is now, with his victim coming out on top in the end. It wouldn't be the first time they changed the story to make someone else win.
I don't want 50 Shades in the DAC, obviously, but it would be an interesting challenge for a writer...

"It's liberating, realizing you never need to be competent." — UltimatepheerI swear my mind works like a shonen sometimes.
Like, doing cheesy shonen style speeches in my head actually helps me deal with stuff.
....I don't even usually watch or read shonen, but hey
Like, I get a successive stream of OCD worries that serve as the "opponents" and i get my ass kicked and then i come back with a new thought that i'm able to hit their weak spot with, then they die but new ones come in.

It won't ever happen because of how much the plot focuses on him - and he is reprehensible.

"Did you expect somebody else?"...I'm actually tempted to take that challenge now. Rewriting it to where it's actually decent and making it to where the most disgusting character no longer gets away with his actions in a believable manner.

Basically, you want to write Rational 50 Shades.
EDIT: Just noticed we actually have a trope page for that.

"We're home, Chewie."My little sister is folding her pizza like a proper New Yorker now. I'm so proud :')
Oh really when?She's doing what to a pizza?
"What a century this week has been." - Seung Min KimGood, its the best way to eat it.
When you eat pizza by the slice you gotta fold it. It's the only proper way to eat the stuff.
Pizza is Serious Business in New York
Oh really when?You east coast people are scaring me. That's almost as bad as eating it with a fork.
"What a century this week has been." - Seung Min KimYou haven't been to Chicago, then, I take it?
Heaven is a tropical rainforest.No, why? How do they defile pizza over there?
"What a century this week has been." - Seung Min KimIt's not defilement; it's deep dish, so you sort of need a fork. The guy on the Travel Channel said it was made that way so that people could have a good and filling pizza dinner even in the wintertime.
Heaven is a tropical rainforest.What Chicago has is not pizza. Though admittedly quite tasty calling that thing pizza is heresy
Oh really when?... Why all this argument over something I don't much like, but will have anyway?
I'll just go over here and have a chicken burger.
"Did you expect somebody else?"Amen.
"What a century this week has been." - Seung Min Kim...My list of Waifus includes god, the devil, schoolgirls, drunk women, apocalypse maidens and psychopathic clothes manufacturers.
I've truly seen it all by this point
My tablet has often autocorrected "wife" to "waifu", despite the fact that this is my first time typing "waifu".
I need to make an official list.
- Madoka Kaname
- Homura Akemi
- Misato Katsuragi
- Nia Teppelin
- Sakaki
- Zelda
- Nui Harime
So, 7 now.
I'm told that authentic Italian pizza in Italy is on a thin, crispy crust, might not have cheese, and is more of a snack than a meal.

It's rather more easy to adopt all those into something else than it is Fifty Shades of Grey, which focuses solely on BDSM, and the relationship between a man who dominates women because he hates his mother, and a woman who gives into him.
