Outpedantic-ing is the best kind of being right; sorry, “technically” folks.

This. Unlike you, I wouldn’t freely admit to reading erotica, but what really made me feel gross was reading shit like “my inner goddess!” and “fair point well made” and every other literary device that seemed to cater to middle schoolers. I’d be home alone and still feel humiliated.

that response showed a lot of tact. I would have taken a different tack, perhaps an attack.

Not to outpendantic you but “tack” is the correct word for that sentence.

is...is that in the movie...?

To put thing in a bit of perspective, most already-successful authors are given “the right of final say” as a matter of course when they sign over their book to be adapted.

I care much less about her time with 50 Shades of Grey than I do about how she landed Aaron Taylor Johnson. HOW GIRL?? Teach me your ways!! Their relationship is fascinating to me.

Well to be fair, it seems like his boner is writing at least part of his review.

Uhhh... how did he still have a job as a movie reviewer after that Emma Watson comment???

“The problem is that nobody cares about my boner!” he whined.

I would *love* to have a neighbor like you - honestly, just having someone say “hey, let me know if this is a problem, I don’t have parties often” would be enough to not only ensure I didn’t call the cops, but that I wouldn’t even be irritated with the noise.
