Today, I was reading erotic literature and noticed several errors in syntax, resulting in my mood being killed. I was cockblocked by my need for grammatical correctness. FML

A big turn-off is the unexpected period.

were you, by any chance, reading fifty shades of grey?

That's my guess, too. That's what happens when you read what started out as 'Twlight' fan fiction...? ...That never saw a real editor?

I was hoping someone would inquire about this. I read the first few chapters when I was bored, and it really is as awful as everyone says.

Haha that's totally happened to me. Time to switch to good ol ****!

Well you'll definitely fit in on this site, then... it's teeming with Grammar Nazis.

What you need is some Grammar Nazi ****, courtesy of Rule 34.

If you're reading Fifty Shades of Grey, grammatical errors are the least of your worries. Be prepared for overused words such as "Oh my, and I blushed, oh dear, oh crap, holy crap" you get the gist. The author is in serious need of a thesaurus. Now excuse me while I go on iBooks and make my disdain for this piece of crap known.

38- I totally agree, it reads as if a teenager wrote it. Grammatical errors, cliches, overused phrases, as well as a completely ridiculous storyline. Billionaire at 26 who hardly works? Yeah right.

Not to mention it's Twilight fan fiction. By the way I didn't pay for that turd, a friend lent it to me saying it was awesome. I couldn't finish it, it sucked so bad.

maybe you should not be such a tight ass?

I can totally understand where the OP is coming from. You notice one bad mistake and that seems to kick off some sort of mental editor and suddenly you're noticing all the little mistakes as well, and then suddenly instead of enjoying an erotic story, you're noticing every single flaw. Total mood killer.

It is hard to find website erotica that wasn't written by, what seems like a 10 yr old. :(

Yeah you totally deserve it. That is what you get for being a grammar nazi. Ha. Ha.
