Whether this actually counts as a signiture I do not care. Even so, I realise signing this will make little to no difference for one side or the other anyway, I just want to get this much out. I'm a big fan of the Harry Potter series and have read all the books, love 'em. I don't spend much time on the internet, and I certainly don't dwell on any of the book's relationships for very long. Now me, as a very neutral party... I gotta say that I find this concept, these arguments, the REASON for your being unhappy, take your pick... utterly and completely apalling. I find it hard to believe that a person, let alone a GROUP of people would consider trying to ban one of the most successful books around today simply because two certain characters in the plot don't get romantically involved. I can hardly believe going to that extreme is necessary. You forget that it's BECAUSE of this book series, and because of this woman's talent, that you've become so passionante for the characters in the books in the first place. If anything you should be giving this woman the utmost respect. What you're doing here is basically an open-palm slap to the face. That's what really bugs me here; if it makes you happy to squabble with each other endlessly over the relationships in these books then go right ahead. Just don't forget where that passion came from: THAT WOMAN gave it to you by creating the characters and their situations. I think it's disgusting you start blaming her for doing what she wants with her characters, instead of blaming yourself for being so blatently inconsiderate and idiotic. I'll smile as I read the seventh book when Joanne's done writing it, it'll be a fantastic finish to an excellently-written series, hopefully I and the rest of the planet will be able to block out the whining from complete morons like yourselves. Goodbye.
I saw the interveiw on Snowy's site and OMG. Is that the best you can do?
Anyway, here's another fun list I got off of MuggleNet.com. It isn't one of the new ones, but I hope that it will never the less give everyone a good laugh.
You Know You're Too Big of a Fan When...
You mutter nonsense latin words under your breath.
You call your least favorite teacher Snape.
Your computer says "You've Got Mail" and you run outside looking for an owl.
You actually ask for a broom for Christmas.
You mutter "lumos" under your breath every time you turn on a flashlight.
You sort everyone you meet into the four Hogwarts houses. (Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff and Slytherin.)
You were burned when you couldn't get through the flames of your fireplace.
You had to go to the hospital after you broke your nose running headfirst into the wall between platforms nine and ten.
The wand order mistake in GoF drove you crazy, and even after it was "corrected" you still came up with dozens of theories to explain why that happened.
You point a normal things like parking meters and say "Look at the things these muggles dream up!"
You collect plugs.
You try on every piece of silvery fabric your mom has to see if you turn invisible
Before getting up to get something, you always try to summon it first. Accio TV remote!
You watched "Love, Actually" because two minor Harry Potter actors were in it.
You were reduced to tears when you finally had book 5 in your hands.
You refer to your Chemistry class as Potions.
You spend hours tapping bricks in special orders hoping that a secret entrance to Diagon Alley will appear.
When playing chess, you yell orders to the chess players and get upset when they don't move.
You yell into the "fellytone."
You get emoti
Finally, the REAL end-of-day report! First, the numbers, and then the bad news:
The first number listed is the exact time of day in 24-hour format. Following the date (day-month-year format) is the post number of the timestamp, the page of the petition of the timestamp, the number of posts since the last timestamp, the daily post average, and the number of days since the start of the petition on 21 July.
All times are Eastern, and all daily averages are rounded up to the nearest hundredth. Spacing allowances have been made for when we begin to have 1000 or more posts per day. A row of "+"s denotes the beginning of a new week (Sunday through Saturday). 23 August 2005, the date of the first timestamp, was a Tuesday.
This petition was created by otter snow on July 21st, 2005 at 4:08 pm AST. Up to the first timestamp (33 days), we had an average of 96.76 "signatures" a day.

279 posts! Good work, everyone, for getting back to your winning ways. Unfortunately, I will have to take off a few posts because of the cheezeball way of repeating the same post over and over again. Tsk, tsk. The Time Turner is not happy. Unfortunately, I am not willing to go back through the pages and pages of essays, charts, and graphs and count every repeat post. Yes, HarryHermione4eva, that means you. :-(
And I will let the "slut" comments slide for now, but if we are going to impress Grey Lady (who is not me and I am not her, btw), Snowy, and JKR most of all, we simply MUST get more original and creative in our abuse and insults.
Herons and Harmonians are equally culpable, sadly.
Harmonians, while your ship did not sail, please get more imaginative and creative and live up to the memory of HMS Harmony.
Heron

alright dudes, just stop giving the poor bastards crap, they're delusional, they're crazy, they're frighteningly militant, but i'm sure they're really harmless. just ignore them and maybe they'll just die or something.
You guys obviously have no better to do than to ban Book 7. Even if JKR saw this website, it wouldn't stop her from writing the 7th book; you guys are a bunch of tards who have too much time on your hands. There's even proof that its Ron/Hermione... Harry/Hermione are just mutual friends - come on, if you were smart enough, you would be able to see the chemistry between Ron/Hermione. Come on. Get a life.
This truly proves that you guys really are delusional and stupid. It further proves that none of you can in fact read. It was crealy written that Ron and Hermione are going to get together. Instead of making petitions why dont the lot of you guys go buy a Hook on Phonic.
Look, you have been proven wrong. Instead of being an immature dolt, you could do the adult thing, GET OVER IT. You can favor one thing over another in real life all you want, however books are not real life, once the words are on paper, they are on paper forever, the facts are there and you cannot change them. The sooner you grasp that fact, the less painful your later life will be. It is your desire not to read book seven? Fine, that is your choice. But don't you think that choice being based on the flow of the book not going as you hoped is petty? A well written book keeps you guessing. The fact that the R/H relationship blindsided you should increase your desire to read book seven, if only for the fact to see if JKR follows through on the foundation set up in HBP
IT'S A BOOK! While it is a quite well written book, the fact remains that it is simply a book. The charaters are all fictional, even those based on real people, are NOT REAL. Do you even HAVE a friend of the opposite sex? The basis you shippers are using to "prove" that it has to be Harry and Hermione is, for lack of a better term, IDIOTIC. Harry may very well love Hermione, but don't forget there are many types of love (love of family, friends, etc). Just because you "love" someone doesn't mean you're destined to be with them. JKR (who, in the Harry Potter universe IS GOD) had decided that it will be Ron and Hermione, there is nothing you losers can do but ACCEPT THAT YOU'RE WRONG!
You now what? You PROVE that Emerson is the better person. When people insult him or his beliefs, he laughs. When someone insults you, you pitch a hissy fit.
Thanks for proving how immature you are, genius.
AHAHAHAAHAHA you, my dear non-friend, are an idiot. JKR never said that H/Hr shippers are delusional--that was Emerson.
Though, judging by the fact that you couldn't see R/H in canon, you must not be able to read at all.
Crawl back under your rock: H/Hr shippers don't make the majority.
HarryHermione4eva-You are unbelievably annoying. Both sides of you. And you didn't call me a slut. HOW DARE YOU?
It's ok, I would much rather be called a whore. Although "fuckmeister" (compliments of Snowy) has actually started to grow on me.
"I'm not in denial.
...
"I am not a lesbian. Nor am I uncomfortable with my sexuality.
I am not a trans OR an eunich."
Poor girl cannot make up her mind!
You sound too much like snotface for it to be coincidence.
And you call us sick. Snotface if you have to impersonate other people to get support, then you're even sadder than we all originally thought.
Cheryl,that makes no difference, we know, we are all sluts after all. Even HarryHermione4eva, but she's too psycho and too shitzo to realise it yet... just keep quiet about it, and she won't hurt herself.
Tiffi is in denial ! She admits to being a hoe !! AHAHA
And Tiffi don't realize that there are TWO people posing as HH4E. No, hun, two DIFFERENT people in different bodies ! So no, no schitzos here.
And I see you had to leave before us ! WE WIN
NO ! GriffindorS are sluts ! You should open YOUR eyes and pay attention to my question at the end of post # 3794 !
HOW CAN AN ENTIRE HOUSE BE A SLUT ?
Okay, schitzo, I shall clear everything up for you. Your brain is made of mushy pumpkin (like someone else we know ...), so you won't understand, but I can only try.
I am a female.
I am not a lesbian. Nor am I uncomfortable with my sexuality.
I am not a trans OR an eunich.
Are you sure you're not SNOWY in disguise? I think you two should start a club or something, for homophobics who laugh like freaks.
Now, I shall let you suffer with your hideously pitiful existence in peace.
That is punishment enough.
Laters,
snowy's favourite sexy poodle,
Tiffi
P.S. When I return, I guess I'll find out what HH4E can come up with next! Probably something along the lines of 'whore' ... ouch ...
Tiffi has a diease ! AHAHAHA
It's ok, I have one too !!! Bugging the hell out of R/Hr bastards!!!
