Come one, come all – write and vote for the best of the worst and be ‘Bothered’ (uses best Rob and Fallon British accent).

Lately, we've been seeing more and more Facebook threads mentioning things that bother people in the stories they read. So, this is for you. Give us your pet peeves. Give us all the cringey words you can think of. Perfect virgin sex with several screaming O’s? Of course! Orgasms on demand? Sign us up! Tongues fighting for dominance? Get those tongues some weapons!
