The 5 Most Baffling Sex Scenes in the History of Fanfiction

None of these comes close to Roy Orbison in Clingfilm, and I won't even say "IMO" there because, dude, Roy Orbison and clingfilm. I truly love that I can't tell if these are intended to be humorous or not (the writer says they aren't, but that could be part of an act ( Read more... )
