oh but grey lady - u've already posted twice? i know i'm wasting time, how about u? as for ron and hermione - book 1! i swear i knew from book 1-just like draco and myrtle!
You are an idiot. How dare you have the arrogance to say that J.K Rowling can't do what she wants with the characters she created? SHE MADE THEM UP. IN HER IMAGINATION. She can do what she likes with them because she knows them best.
You are a foolish person and I hope to God that I never meet you in person. I can't believe people like you exist. I thought natural selection would have taken care of you by now. It seems Darwins theory doesn't apply to retarded 13 year old geeks with too much spare time.
There aren't "millions" of Harmony shippers, and even if there was, that's irrelevant. It's a fictional story, and you have no influence over what goes on.
And by the way, that interview you're linking to is the best interview with JKR I've ever read. My full thanks and appreciation go to Emerson and Melissa.
As for you, get a life, you moron.
well yeah, i'm not taking this seriously. its too funny and too stupid. not even a five year old would still think h/hr had a chance. anyway, i'm on to the new ship. drace/myrtle! they are just sooo cute together!
I'd also like to ask what the HELL you are smoking.
Did you not read book 6? It was all there. Harry's clearly in love with Ginny, otherwise he wouldn't have broken up with her. He broke up with her because he wanted her to be safe and he cared too much about her to let her get hurt. And Ron was STROKING HERMIONE'S HAIR.... was I the only one that caught that? I have SO much I could say to the idiot that created this... but I'd rather not waste my time on hopeless cases.
It was obvious from book four that not only were ron and hermione going to get together but harry and hermione never were, harry even says "when hermione was your friend there was a lot less laughter and a lot more spending time in the library."
This is the stupidest thing ever.
How the HELL do you plan to ban the book? The incredibly small percentage of H/Hr fans that think there is no point in reading the books if Harry and Hermione are not together is certainly not going to affect book sales. If you've, like, EVER looked at a poll on MuggleNet about who the best girl is for Harry or guy for Hermione, it's Ginny for Harry and Ron for Hermione that won. "The few Ron/Hermione shippers," please, we make up a larger percentage than the Harry/Hermione shippers! Besides the fact that after book six there won't be anyone who actually thinks Harry/Hermione still has a chance anyway.
And come to think of it... it strikes me as a bit odd that the only "true" fans are going to stop reading the books simply because they didn't get their way.
Secondly, you DEMAND that she rectify her "mistake"? 1) it's not a mistake because she's the writer and that's the way she wanted it to be, 2) you can't demand anything from her, and 3) I DEMAND that you remove this idiocy from the web immediately. I also demand that you apologize to all the people who actually sat through this and lost a few brain cells in the process, including myself.
However, I'd like to thank you for it. Gave me a hell of a good laugh.
I agree with Emerson. DELUSIONAL. And on a MuggleNet-related note - congrats on making the Wall of Shame!
~The Grey Lady~
Honestly, this is taking it too far. Yes I know many Harry/Hermione shippers are disappointed with the recent interview with J.K. Rowling but you have to also think about that it's not your book but hers'. She chooses who we belong with.
Now fan fictions are no problem because they are based on what the fans want. I personally don't care who goes out with who but I want to know what happened to Voldemort and Harry.
If for some reason there is a miracle twist of Harry going out with me, then there's no problem for me *sighs*. Being with Ron would mean me trying not to rip out his throat though but hey, love has its different characteristics.
Can we all get along now with this? It's something from the past and no one can change it except her.
Whoever started this petition, I just want you to know that you're wasting your time on a lost cause. Get over it please.
Sincerely,
Hermione Granger
All you people are stupid. How can your life be so boring that you have to come online and make a petition because of you you wanted to see happen in the books. It's J.K.'s material and she can do whatever the fuck she wants with it. It's not like wrote the book. If you wanna see a Harry/Hermione thing so badly, go write your own damn book you stupid people with no lives.
i'm so ashamed.... I used to be a H/Hr shipper but a R/Hr shipper as well.. obviously my R/Hr spirit was way higher than the H/hr...With this petition i feel ashamed that I ever supported such ship... I liked that ship in FANFICTIONS but I never wanted it to happen in the actual books... please put this petition down, you're just ridiculizing yourself....
Cry us a river, build us a bridge, AND JUST GET OVER IT!!!!!
Love the True Fans of Jo Rowling...i.e. the only sane ones around here who aren't crying that their ship was sunk.
err.. right. this is by far the DUMBEST petition i have ever come across in my entire life. I'm a Harry-Luna shipper myself, but i dont go about starting petitions that Harry MUST be with Luna in bk7. I mean, it was made very clear from book 2 that Ron and Hermione have a thing for each other. Are u blind? u truly are delusional.
oh, and did u know that there will be NO more HP books after 7? so even if 7 doesnt sell well (which i doubt, cos u delusionals not buying em are only a small fraction of the population. like 0.0000001% or something) It wouldnt affect further sales cos there will be no 'further sales'. so, all i can say is, go dig a hole, and bury urself, cos no one listens to u anyway.
Well. This was a total shocker. I didn't think there were such die hard H/Hr fans. I mean, I'm not trying to be mean, but come on - have you read the sixth book? There was no H/Hr evidence, never has been. I'm sorry...it's just, this is crazy. I mean, I like my ships, but if they didn't work out - which some of them didn't - I wouldn't be mad at the author. They're her characters not yours, as someone so rightly said.She gets to dictate what they do most of the time, since characters get out of hand sometimes, but she is like god or something! She will not change her entire series to suit one ship...she will create what she wants and that will be that. And yes congrats for making the Wall of Shame on Mugglenet. I hope this wasn't too mean, since I'm not trying to, but something like this just really suprised me, that someone would be that obsessed. I'm obsessed, but not that much. I hope life after HP goes well for you - what ARE you gonna do? Sorry if it was mean, I'm not meaning to be.
Haha, it's funny how half the people on here are against you're stupid petition. About 2 or 3 "delusional" people on here actually support you. I, however, THANK YOU, for giving me such a laugh. It's a good thing you;re banning book 7. Now I'll be able to get my hands on a copy without waiting in line for hours with a bunch of "delusional" idiots like you.
Oh wow...this is some FUNNY stuff. Kinda makes me embarassed that I used to ship H/Hr. Okay, whoever made this petition really needs to go out and hit themselves as hard as they can with metal pole. This is "delusional!" I was so amused Emerson put this up on The Wall of Shame. I salute you, Mugglenet.
you are seriously the stupidest person ever to walk the face of the earth. do you really think people are going to agree with you? you actually think that there are more H/H shippers out there? what are you on? wow. this was extremely entertaining though. oh and congrats! you made the wall of shame on mugglenet! :D
You make me sad. Oh so sad. It's when I hear about people like you that I really begin to despair of the world.
By the way, didn't you also think it was so super obvious that Professor McGonogall is destined to be with the giant squid. It's quite obvious when you read the books that their love is growing, just like the numbber of idiots who put things like this on the internet.
Lol, thanks for the great entertainment, I really needed a few laughs. Whoever you are, I'll let you in on a secret, ok: Harry Potter is fiction. fic'tion n. imaginary events or people, often employed in literature.
And go ahead, make fun of my screen name, it'll give me a few more laughs. And, of course, just like to remind you, it wasn't JKR's word, "delusional".
I thank everyone who made comments here for giving me a good laugh. And I'll say this: anyone who reads HP purely for the romance, and vows to stop reading the books because their desired ship didn't happen, is NOT a true fan. True fans might like the idea of one ship or another, but they won't throw the book out because it didn't happen. HP is way too important to do that. Our love for the HP series is NOT based on the romance. True fans smiled when Harry and Ginny kissed because it made Harry happy, and when it came to finding something to get upset about, we got upset that Snape managed to fool quite a few of us for so many years. We true fans are anxiously awaiting the 7th book and know that we will love it regardless of which people get together.
Yes, I forgot to add in my previous message that Ginny Weasley was merely a cover for our torrid love affair. He, in no way, loved her. I am his one true lover. I mean, he was obsessed with me! He ditched quidditch for me! That's love. Get over it. Stupid muggles.
PS- Harry likes probiety probes.
I want to say this is the most stupid and embarressing thing for anyone to do, and I am voicing my utter disgust at the SILLY little girlies who can think up such a pathetic waste of time. They should be ashamed of themselves. JKR - you rock.
It's funny how the only 'true' HP fans are willing to ban a book over this. And it's also funny how, despite the true fanship, they completely missed the entire R/Hr development simply because they chose to believe something different. Um. Get over it - then you'll be a true fan.
Oh, and Ron? I didn't know you felt that way ...
You sure as hell better be an imposter, coz this may make things a little uncomfortable ... also, Hermione and Ginny would beat my ass.
Dudes, I'm off on a dastardly and dangerous mission to destroy bits of Voldy's soul before I have to face him in a deadly battle and all you care about is that I didn't get Hermione in bed? Seriously, what is with THAT!
Also, Ginny is smokin' hot, can you blame a guy for loving her?
This petition is slightly dead anyway ... face it, everyone is much too worried about ME and my final battle with Voldy to care about what DELUSIONALS think.
Also, this weird chick just came up to me and said that 'Emerson is hot'. Whatever the hell that means.
Harry and Ginny 4Eva!!! - from the hero himself ...
I like to think this is a joke, but I'm afraid there's actually some truth to it. If your romances mean this much to you perhaps you should be reading Jackie Collins instead of JK Rowling. Call my producers. I think you need help.
Gwarp love Hermyownninny! Gwarp will win her love in Book 7!!! Gwarp will fly on hippogriff with Hermy in Book 7 and this PROVE that we have sexual attraction when she hold onto Gwarpy so as not to fall off! Major symbolism!
My dear Ms. Snowy, surely you can't be serious. Why, even the Fat Friar has commented upon the burgeoning romance between Mr. Weasley and Miss Granger. I myself am more upset that Ms. Rowling has yet to reveal the most interesting ship in the serious. I speak, of course, of the love between Sir Cadogan and The Fat Lady. I will be creating a petition of my own to redress that wrong.
Yours,
Sir Nicholas de Mimsy-Porpington
Who I like and who I date is none of your business! Ronald Weasley and I have always struggled to show each other how we feel. We've hurt each other so much before. Now that things are getting better between us, you have the nerve to doubt what Mrs. JK has written?! I suggest you reread the series again and see the obvious clues.
I cannot believe you care so much more about who is snogging who than the fact that people DIED in the book.
I, the late SIR PATRICK PEEVES, henceforth resign from my post at one HOGWARTS SCHOOL OF WITCHCRAFT AND WIZARDRY as poltergeist. After perusing the above petition, I find myself wholly incapable of any mischievous intent (see also; pranking, marauding, general disturbance of the peace, peeving.) This immediate change of position is likely due to the sudden, cold-shower-effect knowledge that the human race is slowly declining into greater idiocy with each water balloon I throw, to the point where said race is unable to accept that the love interest of one POTTY does not include one SMARTY SMARTY.
I am retiring to my previous residence in Nottingham, and do so warn all "HARRY/HERMIO NE SHIPPERS" that wander across my residence to take caution; in such a ghostly rage as this, I could be forced to drastic measures (see also; pelting aforementioned "HARRY/HERMIO NE SHIPPERS" with balloons full to the brim of REALITY CHECK POTION.)
In Fellowship,
SIR PATRICK PEEVES
It IS Ron/Hermione. GET OVER IT.
"Otherwise, we have no choice but to ban Book 7 when it comes out. As the millions of Harry/Hermione shippers are the only "true" fans of the Harry Potter book series, this action will seriously affect books sales, and will undoubtedly force Bloomsbury and Scholastic to reconsider any future Harry Potter publications."
Hello, idiots? There WON"T BE ANY HP books after the seventh book whether or not you "ban" it. Think for once. Might actually help you in the long run.
And H/Hr fans are not the only true fans. Grow the hell up.
Thanks, again Snowy for the wonderful laugh. I wish you would come back the the TLC thread so we could mess with you some more.
Harry and Ginny ARE the one true pairing!
Give Snowy hell from us, Jo.
--Rowling's woman, through and through
It's people like you who make Harry Potter fans as a whole look bad. You "DEMAND" she apologize? Here's a thought-- I "DEMAND!" you to apologize to me and all the other sane people whose IQ has just been decreased a few points.
Sheesh.
I have loved Ron for as long as I've known him. I can't believe there are people that thought I'd get together with Harry. Eww! He's like my brother! Maybe you lot are into that but I am not. I love Ron FOREVER!
OMG JKR HOW COULD YOU? Your new initials should be JRK because that sounds like "jerk" which is more closely alligned with your brain now that the travesty of HBP is apron us.
I can't belief you would do this awful writing to us. How couldn't Harry and Hermione get together, like we all know they must eventually do? Why have you destroyed this love story which are the best of all the parts in the entire series?
Us true fans will never read your books again. Maybe I will save book 6 from the fire oven but I think you would be lucky to hear me ever reading it again.
When I was waiting for Half Blood Prince I couldn’t wait and I telephoned my friend Jake in England and asked him who died and more important, if H/H were together yet or if it was not until book 7 that they loved. He told me about R/H and H/G and I cried for an hour about how you killed off the best romance of all time, seemingly forever. I couldn’t understand because of how you twisted the story around and ruined it so mostly and entirely.
When I went through the book store party and told all my fellow REAL FANS about the “secrets” in your travesty of a sixth book, they were also so angry and couldn’t possibly comprehense why our beloved JKR (oh, sorry, I mean JRK) would write such words of deception. The non fans, the pathetic R/H shippers and the people who follow JRK along every path she takes them no matter how inaine, kicked me out of the store, the owner was an R/H shipper and didn’t want me telling people the truth about you and your hijacked book, JRK. But now you see from this petition that your TRUE Fans, ie: your EX-Fans, are as innumerous as they are angry.
My reading of the entire HP books is now down in flames, all my experiences of imagination – experiences in fiction unlike you will ever be conscience of - are now destroyed because of your vastly overpublished knife twisting known as HBP.
One can only hope that you are
In the very slight possibility that JKR reads this, I just want to say - thank you for a wonderful book, Jo, best in the series so far! Keep on with the series! I hope Harry gets back together with Ginny again, because he deserves the joy and happiness she clearly gives him.
Oh honestly. "Rectify the situation in Book 7", "the only true fans". I suggest you take your lithium and calm the hell down. They're just books. Books you didn't write. The "situation" is exactly as it should be since that's what the writer wanted! At frist, I was a bit ticked over H/Hr shippers being called delusional, as that's not nice, but now some of you are showing that you really, truely are and deserve to be called much worse! Go bury yourselves in fanfiction, you militant psychos.
Wow. Please say this is a joke, or else that you are five years old. The only thing H/Hr was ever "destined" for is the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean.
Go JKR! Go R/Hr! Go H/G!
Thanks for giving me a laugh... you pathetic little people, yes we know H/Hr has been sunk - OLD NEWS CHANGE THE RECORD stop making idiots of yourselves going on about it, oh boohoo she was so MEAN, whatever, get over yourselves and get a life. a true fan would be reading the books FOR PLOT not romance as it is not a romantic book
Oh get over yourself and stop thinking you know any more about the books than JKR. Asking her to apologise for writing her own book?? Please. She has never said that you can't pretend in your little mind that Harry and Hermione are an item - by all means go ahead! But remember it is just in your head and *not* in the books.
Right on, this is exactly the sort of petition we need! Currently our group numbering in the thousands is organizing an offical protest to JK Rowling, and sill soon be sending her a letter demanding an apology. I congratulate you on the courage it must take to do this.
And to everyone else who is being rude here, shame on you. Shame, shame, shame.
I pity you.
Harry Potter fandom is better off without pathetic, childish morons who refuse to read the rest of the books because their idealized fantasies failed to come true. Get a life, kiddies - H/H was NEVER going to be, JKR ALWAYS intended it to be R/H.
I'd like to see how you 'ban' the book. If you think this petition or any like it are going to change anything anywhere, you really are delusional.
Ron and Hermione like each other because Rowling made it so...just like she created them. Did you create them? No, do not assign your sick feelings to these characters. Someone should sit u down and let u know how characters work...they do what the author wants them to.
dude...i don't want Harry. And also...I am fictional so stop obsessing about who I end up with. If you read Harry Potter for the romance than you have obviously only been satisfied by about 50 pages. Be grateful Jo created me you sick bastard. Now I'm going to take my fictional sexual organs and go do Ron while Harry beats off to Ginny's enchanted photo.
You poor deluded Harmony shippers. I killed that incredile fool Dumbledore, and I shall now kill your pathetic Harry Potter. And then I shall have Hermione for myself, muhahahahahahahahaha!!!
P.S. I am also not a vampire, you deluded bitches. Shut up and go read your idiotic fan fiction.
this is bullshit, everyone knows harry belongs with hermione, it's so obvious! and hermione doesn't love ron, she sent birds to peck his eyes out, for christs sake! stupid stupid stupid harry loves ginny? shes rons sister aarrrrrrgh screw book 7 i'm not reading it
What type writer is best to get me on line? I want to sign up for this pettition, but I can't seem to get my TV to go there. That is why I need a type writer that can use QSL... or was it ASP? hmm,... I am hungry.
Dude you just proved emersons pint that you a militiant idiodic delusional jack ass. right now people are making fun of you and if they are religous in any way they are thanking who ever or what ever they worship that they aren't you. yo need a hobby seriously.
O. God.
Did you even take the time to read what you wrote? I SERIOUSLY hope that this was some sort of really horrible sick disgusting retarded idiotic joke. If not then I really doubt how in the world you ever was allowed in front of a computer. Shouldn't you be somewhere surrounded by nice white rubber walls? lol I really hope that this was only temporary insanity and that people like you dont really walk the same streets as the rest of us =p
Who do you think you are to force Jo, not only to apologize for comments she did not make (read that interview again; she NEVER used the word delusional), but to also RE-WRITE book 7 (which is the ending she has had in her mind for 15 years!) just so you can get your way. Your ship is sunk! She has said all along that it was obvious who Hermione liked and it's not her fault that you didn't listen to reason. Also, it is absolutely absurd that you dare call H/Hr shippers the true fans. If they are anything like you, who has even considered BANNING book 7 just because Harry loves Ginny, then clearly you are NOT a true fan. A TRUE fan would read these books no matter who ended up with who, a TRUE fan would want to read the books because they love them unconditionally and clearly you are not that.
JKR wasn't calling Harmony shippers delusionsl,and I was a Harmonian, it was Emerson. You are taking this way too seriously and are too obsessive. This is JKR's story, she created these characters, she planned for it to be Heron a long time ago. Move on!Get over it! Accept it! If you only like HP because of the romance, you are not a true HP fan.
You are probably one of the "delusional" ones JKR is talking about =]
Just my opinion, of course....not saying that you definetly are....perhaps you are a bit less insane in person....hopefully.
Grow up, kids. It's a fictional work, and JKR, as the author, has every right to write it the way she wants - she clearly always intended it to be Ron and Hermione, and the majority of fans could see that. And anyway, if you think Ron and Lavender "seemed real", then you're clearly not fit to judge any literary romance. GROW UP.
