You know BDSM has become too mainstream when...

[SubbieHubbie2]

So slap me and call me a sassy sub, but I wonder... could BDSM become TOO mainstream? I thought I'd open a comedy thread for anyone to post what would indicate that had happened. For instance:

You know BDSM has become too mainstream when Barns & Nobles/WH Smiths starts selling "Sadomassochism for Dummies."

You know BDSM has become too mainstream when pet shops start listing their collars in animal and human sizes.

You know BDSM has become too mainstream when your boss says he's going to be tied up all afternoon and you know it's true because you're the one doing the tying.

You know BDSM has become too mainstream when Wal-Mart has floggers and handcuffs available in the sporting goods section.

You know BDSM has become too mainstream when a caning shop doesn't have anything to do with fixing furniture.

Become too mainstream? Please, drop the pretentiousness.

 

[SubbieHubbie2]

No pretentiousness intended - perhaps I didn't make it obvious that this thread was intended to be jocular.

Let's see, minus 10 for jocular, and minus 15 for attempting to create an adverb out of a noun. You're at 775 on the new writing SAT section and dropping like shit from a mallard in the middle of duck season. Care to gamble yet again?

Keep the panties on studly. i'm in a slightly irritated mood, and just kidding.

Oh man, I just got this picture of the old Slave Market in Charleston, SC, with a banner strewn across it in big red letters saying "Back in business!!" Of course, nowadays it's been renamed the politically correct term of the "public market." Still though, the thought gave me a chuckle.

Though it is deemed to be too far into the world of scat.

As I was signing up for the bdsm club here in town (on the day I met D, as a matter of fact..) I was signing the 3rd piece of paper when I sighed and said "you know bdsm has become more mainstream when the paperwork must be filed in triplicate."

Vocabularily? Since when does one turn a noun into an adverb? You are hereby sentenced to six months' hard labor in the Language Nazi thread!
