According to NBC News, a hotel in Crosthwaite, in the United Kingdom has replaced all of its Gideon Bibles with E.L. James’ erotic novel “50 Shades of Grey.” The hotel owner is quoted as saying that Bibles have not been thrown out and are still available at the front desk for guests who ask for them.
Look out, remote control! The worst thing to touch in hotel rooms has a new potential challenger! Are there worse things the owner could have put in the hotel rooms? Probably! Here are:
3 Worse Things A Hotel Could Put In Your Room Than “50 Shades Of Grey”
1. Johnny Depp and an Armadillo. Johnny Depp reportedly once blamed an Armadillo that jumped out of a closet for trashing a hotel room. Specifically, he claimed the animal attacked him and jumped out of the window. If hotel staff or police bought this, who says he’s not a good actor? Regardless of what really happened, the truth is either Johnny Depp or Armadillos have a history of trashing hotel rooms, so you’re probably gonna wind up with a major invoice for room damage quietly slipped under your door at 5 am.
2. More Pillows! Throw pillows! Bollster pillows! Decorative Pillows! Stop the madness!
A bathroom door with this warning would also be an inconvenient addition to any hotel.
3. 50 Shades Of Grey: The Audio Edition. First off, if the remote control is covered in germs because nobody cleans it, who is really going to clean an old compact disc player in this iPod era? Second, if the hotel has thin walls, you may have to listen to someone else listening to 50 Shades of Grey, taking away your right to decide whether you want to read a print edition for entertainment!
