"50 Shades of Grey" — the audiobook: "Hear it as it was meant to be heard."

NSFW... but really funny. Laughed 'til I cried at phrases like "the front wall of my vagina."

You heard the one about the woman with the really large vagina?

Her boyfriend was doing some diving and inadvertently fell in. He was heard to say "Oh my gosh, it's really dark in here".

Then he heard another voice saying "hang on, I have to find my keys. I've got a headlight on my Harley."; 5/18/12, 1:16 PM

mishu said...: Ugh. It got blocked on copyright grounds! Parody is not subject to copyright! These idiot fascists and their privatized censorship!; 5/18/12, 1:35 PM
Freeman Hunt said...: Here 'tis.; 5/18/12, 1:43 PM
Freeman Hunt said...: Hilarious.

Yesterday someone asked for the first time if I had read that book. Ha ha ha ha ha. That was my actual answer.

Someone else at the table had started reading it because she heard it was good. She said that the beginning does not have any sex in it, so she mentioned to someone else that the male character was just like her husband. Later she read further into the book and ended up hurriedly dialing her acquaintance to clarify. Heh heh heh.; 5/18/12, 1:47 PM
Michael Haz said...: Mrs. Haz read the book. Heh.

I now read passages aloud to her using an Elmer Fudd voice. Win.; 5/18/12, 1:54 PM

KLDAVIS said...: Mishy said, "Parody is not subject to copyright!"

1) The reason the video isn't available at the link provided has nothing to do with parody. It was someone posting College Humor's content on YouTube. Straight up copyright violation, no questions asked.

2) Now, if the 50 Shades author were to make CH take the video down claiming a copyright violation, you could argue that the video is parody, but it's less than a clear case. Parody tends to be transformative, and evoke the original source material. This is mockery, using the source material verbatim. Review & critique would be firmer ground to stand on than parody in this case.

For now, the original video is here. On the content creator's site.; 5/18/12, 2:24 PM
Ann Althouse said...: I found the original and embedded it from that site. It works now.; 5/18/12, 2:33 PM
Chip Ahoy said...: Elmer Fudd! Heheheheheheheh. That laugh in places where it is not written. Laughing like a perv along with something pervy.

I wanna hear it. Please use your computer there and record yourself reading. Please upload the file to anyplace, even possibly blogger, and let us hear it. Please.

We could put on our voices and read it. It could be hilarious.; 5/18/12, 2:49 PM
Chip Ahoy said...: Purdy please with sugar on top; 5/18/12, 2:54 PM
Cincinnatus said...: That is truly hilarious.; 5/18/12, 2:55 PM
Patrick said...: HOLY FUCK IS THIS WRONG!!; 5/18/12, 3:08 PM
Shanna said...: Yesterday someone asked for the first time if I had read that book. Ha ha ha ha ha.

I am going to read the first one at some point, just out of curiosity. I can't believe this is a 'thing' though!

I have heard enough about the book to know I can't listen to this at work.; 5/18/12, 3:08 PM
Patrick said...: Uh, excuse me. That was what got me to laugh out loud.; 5/18/12, 3:08 PM
Anonymous said...: Heh - my Elmer Fudd needs work, but I can do a pretty good Bullwinkle. I'll have to think about this one.; 5/18/12, 3:10 PM
MadisonMan said...: but I can do a pretty good Bullwinkle. I'll have to think about this one.

Hey Christian! Watch me pull a rabbit out of my vagina!

Again? That trick never works.

I've gotta get myself a new vagina!; 5/18/12, 3:13 PM
Kev said...: (the other kev)

Call me old fashioned, but I don't realky care for other people reading my porn aloud.

/of course, my porn is GOOD porn.; 5/18/12, 3:31 PM
ndspinelli said...: A few days ago I asked if paper porn was dead w/ all the visual porn so ubiquitous. I now know it's very much alive. That's heartening.

Haz, It's difficult for me to hear such a manly man talking like Elmer Fudd.; 5/18/12, 3:39 PM
Michael Haz said...: ndspinelli - You mean to tell me that you've never walked aroudn the house quietly singing "...kill the wabbit! Kill the waabit!" It's manly, alright.; 5/18/12, 3:53 PM
edutcher said...: Between this and "Julia", feminism is dead and men should start acting like it.; 5/18/12, 4:08 PM
Dust Bunny Queen said...: OK...... You guys are really cracking me up!!

Bullwinkle, Elmer Fudd

Bwahahahaha.; 5/18/12, 4:24 PM
Michael Haz said...: Reading it aloud, using all cartoon voices would be hilarious.

Elmer Fudd, Foghorn Leghorn, Popeye and Olive Oyl, Yosemite Sam, Bugs Bunny would all add a special happiness to that softcore porn novel.; 5/18/12, 5:01 PM
Deb said...: It's made for Porky Pig...; 5/18/12, 5:07 PM
Freeman Hunt said...: He could make money by putting out an audio lecture series for abstinence only sex education programs.; 5/18/12, 7:54 PM
