This is truly the most idiotic and senseless thing i've ever read, who honestly thinks JK Rowling is going to apologize for something as stupid as that? And, in your petition when you state the true fans are the Harry and hermione shippers, well you're not showing it very well as you wrote this idiotic, senseless, and MOST delusional petition.

I just want to add in addition to collen's post something that i was reminded of when i read "and without thinking, without worrying about the fact that fifty people were watching, he kissed her". Now i just want to point out that had harry been under the influence of a love potion, his emotions would have been uncontrollable, not just when around ginny, but all the time. He would have acted like ron when he got a hold of romaline vance's love potion. And, once again, yes we do not its ron and hermione. Get.over.it.

Harry looked around; there was Ginny running towards him; she had a hard, blazing look in her face as she threw her arms around him. And without thinking, without planning it, without worrying about the fact that fifty people were watching, Harry kissed her. After several moments – or it might have been half an hour – or possibly several sunlit days – they broke apart. The room had gone very quiet. Then several people wolf-whistled and there was an outbreak of nervous giggling. Harry looked over the top of Ginny’s head to see Dean Thomas holding a shattered glass in his hand and Romilda Vane looking as though she might throw something. **Hermione was beaming**, but Harry's eyes sought Ron...(emphasis added) Compare that to... Fleur bent down, kissed Harry twice on each cheek, then said to Ron, "And you, too -- you 'elped --" "Yeah," said Ron, looking extremely hopeful, "Yeah, a bit --" Fleur swooped down on him too and kissed him. **Hermione looked simply furious.** (emphasis added) Explain this, snowy resond beter enty someo actualy. When Harry kissed Ginny, Hermione was "beaming". But when Fleur kissed Ron, she was "simply furious". Two entirely different reactions here. to "saved by jesus" and MY NAME IS THE LORD- Look, young children are doing drugs and having sex, there are rapes, murders, and terrorist attacks, and there is poverty and starvation all throughout the world. The Harry Potter series should be the least of your worries. God is kind and forgiving, and I would think he would care more about the character of a person than the books they read. I know plenty of good Christian families that love Harry Potter. Although they go to church every Sunday, no matter where they are, give generously to the Church, and do everything a good Christian should, will they go to Hell because they read Harry Potter?

And now a couple more things: sei il più fottuto frocio stronzo puttaniere di merda che io abbia mai incontrato, dovresti andare a ficcare la tua testa vuota nel cesso insieme alla merda di cinquanta persone e poi tirare l'acqua. Il mondo sarebbe davvero un posto migliore senza un deficiente blasfemo coglione come te.

Heed what I tell you, for Jesus is the only way to salvation. JKRowling has boys and girls sleeping together, in the same Houses!!! Do we want to allow our children to have unsupervised sex, anytime they want? This is what JKRowling wants, to turn our schools into wanton wastelands of decadence and evil. Burn your Harry Potter, now! betfore it is too late! Do it! NOw! I beg of you, please! We have to stop this devil woman before it is too late

Wow, it's amazing, so you're a serious reviewer who goes around calling people "assholes" just because they don't agree with you. You might notice that I didn't insult you, because I usually respect people although I disagree with them. But I'd like it if you respected me, too. Respecting other people helps to make them respect your opinion. And, please, don't act like you're the only one who knows what good literature is. I assure you I'm not some 12-years-old who's never read anything apart from the Harry Potter series, but I don't go around boasting about being a very clever person who knows better than everybody else and has the right to call everybody who disagrees with me "moron" and "asshole".

Another example of JKR's lack of storytelling ability: when Harry finally finds "true love" with Ginny, what does JKR do? Has them snog in the Common Room in front of everyone, then takes them for a walk -

You know, usually if I don't like a book I just don't read it. I guess you must have a lot of time to spare if you read 6 books (three of them quite long) you don't care about. I suggest you stop insulting people just for liking a book and go read something that really interests you. Then maybe you wouldn't look like such a loser who just likes to spoil other people's fun. And btw, I'm not a shipper, either... that's not what the books are about. But I had seen R/Hr coming, because it was clear it would come.

Nope, I've never paid a dime for JKR's toilet paper novels. I'm not a shipper either. I could care less about her characters which are nothing more than shoddy caricatures to begin with. The whole lot can go have a mass orgy for all I care, I'm sure that would get all of her rabid fans' sexual juices flowing in ecstasy. So no, I'm not delusional, I'm not a "Harmonian," I'm not even a fucking fan. Too bad you can't understand the simple fact that not everyone who happens to disagree with your childish views all belong to a specific category. As for the blame, that rests squarely on JKR's shoulder. She could do with a remedial creative writing course, and an editor with enough balls to actually edit her ridiculously long books. A talented writer could easily tell the same story with about one tenth of the words she uses. My favorite JKR phrase? "Ron said wisely." What type of moron writes such crap, and more importantly, what type of moron actually pays good money to read it? Heh, I guess that would be you, Einstein.

William Lazarus, you say we foolishly gave Jo lots of money, yet you seem to have read book 6 (which means you've read the first 5 as well). So maybe you should say "we" instead of "you", unless you borrowed the first 5 in a library and read an online pirated copy of HBP. In the first 5 books there was nothing that could make rational people believe that Harry and Hermione belonged together. A small (and not large) prcentage of people was wrong, but that was bound to happen with millions of people reading the books all over the world. Not everybody sees the same things in the same way, and it's quite idiot to assume that. Yes, some people were mistaken. Their own fault, not Jo's. You definitely seem to be another delusional Harmonian, although you're ashamed to admit it.

Thomas Paine: while I do agree that this petition is beyond stupidity, I have to take issue with these statements: "The most any H/Hr shipper can claim is that passages in the books led them to expect a different outcome. That is all. No one has the right to tell Rowling what her characters are destined for." But the readers do have a right to tell JK Rowling that her writing stinks. If the emotions of her characters are portrayed so irrationally as to lead a large percentage of her readers to conclude that certain characters logically belong together, or that others have been mismatched, there's a big problem. This is why Half-Blood Prince was such a piece of shit. Harry's feelings towards Ginny were forced and horribly written - the beast inside of Harry? She makes it sound as if Harry is just itching to jump Ginny's bones and rape her on the floor of the Common Room in front of everyone. It was also rushed, and felt as if it was simply thrown in at the last moment to placate JKR's rabid shippers. I'm sure the bitch is sitting back, laughing at shit like this - all the while she counts the money you foolishly give her, all the way to the bank. You fucking sheep.

It's too late. I got my dad to kidnap J.K Rowling. I am going to remove one of her ribs every hour until she gets Harry and Hermoine together. My life will not be complete until two fictional characters get together. Fuck! I accidently pierced her black heart and now she is dead. Oh well, I've got a new idea, I will write the new book myself. Harry Potter and the Cupboard of Destiny. I'm only part way through but this is how Chapter 6 goes like. Harry turned to Hermione and said "I never loved Ginny, it was all a trick to fool the readers into thinking I would be with a girl with heavy autism and no brain IQs." Hermione looked confused "What readers? Are there people looking at us" Harry nodded "Yes, we are merely character in a story, they know everything we do and even what we think, oh Herminone, I love you. Let's fuc..." Hermione screamed "ARRGGHH! Do you mean they know what I am thinking. I swear, I never killed your parents by going back in time, I was only meant to use it in lessons and I like your company so much I had to make sure we would meet. I thought if your parents were still alive and...oh Harry, I'm so sorry." Harry stood silence "You fucking bitch. I'll fucking kill you!" Harry Potter cast a spell and Hermione's skeleton leapt out of her body and left her as merely skin and organs on the floor.

Thomas Paine said 08/12/05, 8:10 pm (verified)
I think a little common sense is in order here. It is absolutely pointless to argue proof for relationships in the books. To do so suggests that the books somehow exist external and independent of the mind of J.K. Rowling, and that her latest and future books should be compared against them to judge their legitimacy. The very title of this "petition" -- Harry and Hermione are destined for each other -- is pure idiocy. What is "destiny?" In the real world, if it exists, it is the future that God or Fate or whatever has in store for each person. In the world of Harry Potter, J.K. Rowling is the god or Fate that controls what happens to her characters. She is the one who dictates those characters destinies. Now, J.K.Rowling has declared that Hermione and Ron should fall in love. Thus, the title of this petition is quite plainly false: Harry and Hermione are NOT destined for each other because the one who controls their destinies (Rowling) says they are not. The most any H/Hr shipper can claim is that passages in the books led them to expect a different outcome. That is all. No one has the right to tell Rowling what her characters are destined for. To do that to an author would be about a silly as complaining to God that you didn't get the right set of parents, and demanding that He rectify the situation. Rowling is the god of the Potterverse: Her will be done! Amen!

I've never seen a more moronic discussion than the one going on here. Figures, seeing that you're all a bunch of pathetic Potterheads. Why do you even bother reading the garbage JK Rowling writes? Dumbledore is the worst Headmaster in the history of education, cancels exams on a whim, trusts people who even brats like Potter know shouldn't be trusted, hires incompetent Professors to teach at his school such as Hagrid, Trelawney, Lockhart, etc. He even appointed a fucking Death Eater, for Christ's sake! Not only that, but Harry's life has been put in jeopardy several times at Hogwarts, all owing to the incompetence of Dumbledore. I'm glad the fucker got killed, it's what he deserved. Any of you fuckers who actually cried (I know you sobbed like little bitches so don't deny it) are in need of a frontal lobotomy, and quick. Oh, and how about that colleen bitch, the queen of hypocrisy: "kazoo, bren, William Lazarus, and other people who don't like Harry Potter: Do us a favor and leave. Nobody cares about what you have to say, obviously nobody is listening to you, so why are you wasting your time here?" Have you ever thought for one moment that this petition was made for H/Hr shippers, and that you and all your fellow R/Hr shippers would be doing everyone a big favor by leaving? Probably not. As Snowy as repeatedly (and quite correctly) stated, you all have your heads firmly implanted up Emerson's ass. I'll gladly sign this petition simply to avoid having another useless Potter book clog the shelves.

Sorry, I know you've all responded to this several times over, but it's driving me insane. I'm afraid you'll have to provide some sort of context for this excerpt, since I have no idea which of the six Harry Potter novels you took it from. But in answer to your query, it appears that Harry is close by, as he could plainly see what had happened. Edit: On further review, this appears to be the incident where Malfoy and Harry duel, causing the spell to rebound and hit Hermione. I can't believe you seriously think Harry hexed Hermione on purpose??? For pity's sake! Okay. Where the devil did you get that Harry hexed Hermione on purpose? Was that even hinted at anywhere? By anyone? WHERE THE DEVIL DID IT COME FROM?!?!? Sigh. *shakes head morosely* Oh, the human race. How desperately I fear for it.

YAY!!!!!!!!! Here once again to destroy Snowy’s evidence: Mina: "If you think they can't spot a Mudblood, stay where you are." [Malfoy] "You watch your mouth!" shouted Ron. Everybody present knew that 'Mudblood' was a very offensive term for a witch or wizard of Muggle parentage. "Never mind, Ron," said Hermione quickly, seizing Ron's arm to restrain him as he took a step towards Malfoy. - GoF. - Again, trying to protect Hermione (see previous 'mudblood' evidence). Snowy resond beter enty someo: Again, Ron hates Malfoy, and will use any excuse to attack him. It has nothing to do with Hermione.

"Those poor Muggles, though," said Hermione nervously. "What if they can't get them down?" "They will," said Ron reassuringly. "They'll find a way." - He's making her feel better, constantly (well, twice) reassuring her. Snowy resond beter enty someo: This has nothing to do with Ron/Hermione. Ron is simply expressing his concern for the Muggles. Me: No Hermione is. Ron is reassuring her and trying to make her feel better. Mina: "Look," said Hermione patiently (to Harry), "it's always you who gets all the attention, you know it is. I know it's not your fault," she added quickly, seeing Harry open his mouth furiously.

Over 1,000 posts...just do that 1,000 more times, and you'll have your million! At this point, I really feel sorry for snowy and the other hardcore, "I'm right, you're wrong" Harry/Hermione shippers. It is Ron and Hermione. It has always been Ron and Hermione. Harry and Hermione AREN'T GOING TO HAPPEN. JKR confirmed that "We do now know that it's Ron and Hermione". She doesn't lie in an interview. In 1999, she said Harry and Hermione had a strictly platonic relationship. SHE DOESN'T LIE. I would have thought hearing things like that would change your mind, but obviously it hasn't. Banning (or boycotting) the seventh book won't solve your problem. The book will still be published, people will still read it, and Harry and Hermione will still be the platonic friends that they've always been. Jo has had these books planned for fifteen years, and a few angry readers aren't going to change that.

Interesting comment, Rebecca, but of course you were always the wiley one. Anyhow, it might also be said that the Harry/Hermione pairing is just as equally meaningless per se as the Ron/Hermione pairing. But that is obviously not Snowy's intent: she fully believes that the Harry/Hermione pairing DOES have objective existence. What she would need to do -- but has consistently failed to do -- is examine every piece of evidence brought by the R/Hr side and analyze how each bit fits together to create the R/Hr ship -- then from there analyze the failures and inconsistencies that may exist therein. That would be the deconstruction of the R/Hr myth, but would also be far beyond Snowy's ability or agenda. Because Snowy is a fervent disciple and true believer of the H/Hr variety, she cannot properly deconstruct anything, because every argument in her mind is either supportive or contradictory to her belief. Her case is like that of a religious fanatic: she will gladly accept any idea, no matter how far-fetched, if it supports her beliefs and seems to contradict those of her enemies. Snowy is behaving very much like those fundamentalist Christians who reject evolution and instead postulate things like miniature dinosaurs or warpings of space time to explain how one of every species alive could fit on Noah's ark.

deconstruction: A philosophical movement and theory of literary criticism that questions traditional assumptions about certainty, identity, and truth; asserts that words can only refer to other words; and attempts to demonstrate how statements about any text subvert their own meanings: "In deconstruction, the critic claims there is no meaning to be found in the actual text, but only in the various, often mutually irreconcilable, 'virtual texts' constructed by readers in their search for meaning." I believe that snowy, by entitling her essay "Deconstructing the Ron/Hermione Myth" is simply attempting to show that the traditional coupling of the characters Ron and Hermione in the Harry Potter novels only exists in the reader's mind, and has no basis in reality. In other words, their coupling is simply a myth, which in itself is meaningless.

Jacques Derrida said 08/11/05, 10:59 pm (verified)
"Deconstruct" Too many of you toss that word around, but it seems quite clear than you don't havea clue what it means. Deconstructionism denies any meaning to the actual text and instead focuses on deconstructing the "virtual texts" each reader creates in his or her mind. Mina and Snowy et al. are arguing about a text and obviously believe that text contains meaning, so they clearly cannot be deconstructing anything.

Wow, a thousand signatures already! You rock, snowy! What's really funny is how you deconstruct these people's posts every single time, and all they do is come back and repeat the same thing, and claim they somehow deconstructed your point. lol, whatever. Snowy, you've given excellent examples of how Ron and Hermione have never been in love, nor demonstrated any romantic tendencies towards one another. What Jo says in interviews clearly contradicts what she writes in the books. Congrats, - frenchpotterfan

Did you know that idiot Emerson actually dressed up as Harry Potter when he went to England last year?

Those assholes wouldn't know good literature if it hit them in the face with a brick. Try comparing any Discworld novel to any Potter book, people.

What was it that Terry Brooks said. something about Rowling not even knowing she was writing fantasy? For Christ's sake, she has dragons, castles, wizards, magic, ghosts, unicorns, etc. And the stupid bitch doesn't know she's writing fantasy. What the hell? I can't you people actually read this shit.

Thank you, bren, for making my point. Everyone gets their feelings hurt. Why? Because some hack writer laughs at them when the interviewer calls them delusional. She doesn't even respect her own fans, who fork over mega bucks to read her awful books and watch her awful movies. Talk about ungrateful. For the love of Mike, pick up a decent book, folks. There are plenty of good writers out there right now, writing decent books, so put down your Harry Potter and your crayolas and read something good for a change.

Bob - that still does not excuse all the rudeness I read here every day. Snowy has a right to voice her opinion just like everyone else, and is just reacting to the rudeness Emerson displayed in his interview with JK Rowling. I'm sorry if people here like Emerson and are offended by my statements. I think Mugglenet is a good website, but I feel sorry for JKR who had to endure Emerson's immaturity. She managed to offend a lot of her fans without even meaning to do so, all because of Emerson's remarks and her reaction to them. The people who believed that Harry and Hermione would get together are also fans who paid good money for JK Rowling's books and don't deserve to be humiliated in such a manner. I'm sure they could have cared less if Emerson had made his remarks on his own or on his website, but he made them in front of their favorite author, which really hurt. How would you feel if someone made an insulting remark about you to your favorite writer, actor, singer, whatever, and they laughed at it? Odds are you'd probably resent it quite a bit, and feel hurt. I really think all of you should cut Snowy a little slack. Calling her names doesn't accompish anything.

She says R/H shippers are delusional, and H/H shippers are the "true" fans, when JKR has confirmed that R/H shippers got it right, and H/H shippers got it wrong ... and besides, a TRUE fan would respect JKR's right to her own work, and would not want to ban the seventh book. That's why people don't like snowy - moronic and childish arguments such as that.

Queenbee is right, you all owe Snowy a big apology. She goes to the trouble of starting a petition which represents her view, which SHE IS ENTITLED TO DO. How would you like it if everyone made fun of your opinion, simply because you dared to speak it? You may not agree with what she has to say, but you can be a little nicer about it. As for "banning" book 7, I haven't decided yet, but I'm getting a little tired of all the abuse I've been reading here. Try doing the Christian thing and be a little more polite, thank you very much.

Coonskin 13- Great job! Couldn't agree more! Where to start, Snowy... "uh, uh...snowy resond beter enty, oh yeah, I'm so witty now!"(post 961) Yeah, because "signer" was so incredibly clever the five bazillion times you brought it up. By the way, the so-called "Deconstruction of Mina" was pathetic. I would go into detail about everything I didn't like about it, but Coonskin 13 already took care of the Deconstruction of the Deconstruction of Mina. Face it, Snowy, you lost the minute you read Book 6. It's Ron and Hermione now, just like it's always been, and it's time for you to grow up, swallow your pride, and accept it. "Yes, we do now know that it's Ron and Hermione." Get. Over. It.

snowy, are you serious? How long have been debating so much? Why do you care so much about what happens to two fictional people in a story? Does your entire life revolve around this subject? Is this your only purpose in life. J/K/Rowling is writing a book for her fans. She wants to surprise you so you enjoy the book more. If she let any of us decide how the book was written, it wouldn't be J.K.Rowling's book and it would lose the magic. If you want to choose how a story goes, you write a book. Go onto fanfiction.net and you can make Harry and Herminone do whatever the hell you want.

I pity you, as you ahve been repeatedly warned about this, yet mock those who are merely trying to help. You also reveal the ugliness that Satan has put upon your souls by arguing and calling each other names, and using obscenities frequently for the whole world to see.

Agreed, post 960 is solid. Even if it's someone faking Jo, it's an excellent imitation and I'm sure exactly what she would actually say. And how is Ron/Lavender romantic? All they do is make out. That's not romance in the least, it's physical satisfaction. No, there is no scene in the books where Ron and Hermione are going at it in the corner. So what? They're not officially dating yet, but all signs and interviews have confirmed that they will be. There was no solid romance scene at all between harry and hermione. There's really very little evidence pointing that way. They get along really well and are comfortable saying things like "you're more fanciable." Would you EVER say something like that to someone you have a secret crush on? Would you say that to your crush in front of your best friend? I wouldn't. Hermione's character wouldn't, she's comfortable enough and there is no sexual tension between her and Harry so she's able to give objective notes like that. She and Ron have that vaguely uncomfortable bickering jealousy thing, like that kid that likes you in fourth grade pulling your hair. They both need to grow up in some respects, which I see developing at the end of book 6 into book 7. And don't forget, we've been getting Harry's opinions on everything for six books now. We learned immediatly of any sort of attraction he's had to Cho, Fleur, the Veelas, or Ginny. He's never felt anything towards Hermione that wasn't on the friendly plane. Yes, he said "you're not ugly," but that is a little different from "you're beautiful, i want to date you." Quit this "true fan" debate, please. We've all read the books. We all love the books. We're all fans.

I'd rather hear it from a R/Hr fan who disagreed with me, because I'd actually give a shit about what they had to say. Why does Ron see Krum as an enemy? I really don't think you're looking hard enough, snowy my dear. Ron making out with Lavender only confirms the fact that he is sore about never having kissed a girl before, and when lavender throws herself at him, he reacts in a typical teenaged way. "Yes, we do now know that it's Ron and Hermione."

lol, of course you'd rather hear it from a R/Hr shipper, because they agree with you! And Ron hates Krum simply because he sees him as the enemy, it's not that complicated, and has nothing whatsoever to do with his feelings (or lack thereof) for Hermione. In fact, Ron making out with Lavender throughout HBP only confirms the fact that RON DOESN'T LOVE HERMIONE. Yet you R/Hr pretend this doesn't exist and look the other way, all because you're afraid that you'll be proved wrong. Well listen up, buckos, because being wrong is a part of life.
