wrong, wrong, spectacularly and spastically wrong.
You are genuinely saying that Fifty Shades of Grey is a better novel than, say, Heart of Darkness?

You fucking stupid prick.
(, Tue 24 Mar 2015, 12:45, Reply)
I'm saying it doesn't matter what I think, it matters what people on average think.
I imagine that more people have enjoyed reading that trash than have enjoyed reading Heart of Darkness. I also think that a smart persons enjoyment isn't fundamentally worth more than a horny housewifes enjoyment.

A proper counter argument would be that sales don't necessarily link with enjoyment. Also metacritic style review aggregators are probably a better measure than pure sales. But if you just want to call me a spastic rather than trying to form a decent argument go ahead.
