50 Shades of Grey – the book that simultaneously reignited the reading interests of bored housewives the world over and helped sell more whips and crops than any horse-riding event in living history.
So what does your average 11-year-old kid want to wear to his school’s World Book Day celebrations…Harry Potter, Ninja Turtles, a Dr Seuss character maybe? How about a handsome, tormented billionaire with some sordid sexy time secrets? Yeah, not my first bet either. This from the BBC:
Liam Scholes, 11, went to Sale High School as Christian Grey from the explicit novel, wearing a grey suit and carrying cable ties and an eye mask.
His mother Nicola Scholes, a teacher, said the Greater Manchester school excluded her son from photographs.
Although he was later allowed to join in after some costume modification Liam’s mother was still angered by the school’s behaviour and raised an interesting point. Other children came dressed up, armed with toy guns, with one teacher even dressing up as a serial killer.
She also claims that her son’s classmates found his outfit funny and the sense of humour failure came on the part of the school itself.
A school taking itself far too seriously…I’ve never heard of such a thing. Now you all just make sure your sideburns don’t go past the middle of your earhole or else it’s an hour after class, kiddo.
