BNF ROAST

Aug 15, 2004 15:11

Perhaps you were all right and maybe JKR is unethical. Her statements regarding a few things and on her website have made me reconsider my high opinion of her. Lets talk about Hero worship for a moment and how I forgot my place in this world. It's clear to me that perhaps I placed too much faith in a person I didn't know and have never met. I ( Read more... )

A chance to voice my opinion? A chance to roast someone the way she deserves? How could I not jump at the chance!

You are a sad, laughable, self-absorbed little person. Have you considered therapy and/or getting a life? Since you are so lame you probably couldn't find your ass with both hands, I will help you on your way:

1. Read Lolita. It's obvious you haven't done so. If you had, you would know a) it is not a glorification of pedophilia and b) it doesn't turn out well. In fact, all sins are punished by death, which sounds right up your alley. If you don't have the vocabulary, intelligence, or attention span to read the book, rent the contemporary film version (directed by Adrian Lyne).

2. If all these other Harry Potter fen-- and I refuse to use the term Big Name Fan(s) because that is so in the eye of the beholder, and I can tell from here that when you use it your eye is green with envy-- disturb you so much, there's a simple solution to that. (No, don't take an Uzi to the next convention!) Leave the fandom. Here ( ... )

Why should I give up something I love so much so that it can be perverted and violated by people with no sense of morality? I had to go and see these people for myself. I took down the insulting part of my post because I realize I was just very angry, but my little sister reads these book and she is only ten and she has found fanfic sites with this crap. It infuriates me that when all I asked people to do was lock up their fic and they jump into arguments about how crazy I am. I'm not crazy. I would never hurt anyone including these people but I am allowed to be disgusted and more than that I AM ALLOWED TO BE HERE. If you don't want to listen then go away.

Where the fuck are your parents that they are allowing your 10-year old sister to surf the 'net unsupervised? The fault lies with them, not Fandom. It may take a village, baby, but parenting begins with Mom & Dad.

I am her older brother and doesn't it mean that it is MY responsibility as well, which is what I've attempted to do.

Here by way of fandom_wank.

I do love a good wank.

Hey, rumour is that you're a BNF yourself! Are you going to out yourself? Or doesn't your courage go that far?

Hmmm?

Sorry to burst your bubble but there are actually people who believe what I do and NO this isn't a BNF. It's frightening to think that people actually disagree with you and that it isn't just a troll isn't it.

Oh, I'm so sorry that you edited your post! It looked like a brief moment of almost-honesty!

I'm sorry if you're frightened that people actually disagree with you - I myself have always found it something of a challenge to put up a rational argument. After all, a thoughtful discussion where people examine their beliefs and values, explain their ideology and provide evidence in support of their arguments can be wonderfully helpful. I've certainly been known to change my mind after hearing the evidence, examining the argument, and considering my own beliefs and values in response.

Actually, it's highly amusing.

Hi. Thanks for replying. I do understand. I think that your goal here is admirable,and that you are completely well intentioned, but calling out people like this, just doesn't work.

Duty Calls!!! anonymous August 15 2004, 23:52:29 UTC
You are honor-bound to provide more information than the brief rant posted above!!! Pictures and better descriptions are a must, so that the rest of us may recognize Evil should we be so unfortunate as to cross its path.

It is also essential to know which Evil has become most Evil, in your opinion. Wayfairer and Epicyclical had a falling-out; how did their mutual friends deal with the issue of Loyalty? Was there any sign of Repentance? Did you try to talk to Aegeus since he's young and might still have a chance to turn back before too much damage is done? Is Melissa_tlc Evil by association, or just silly?

Remember--even JKR fails as a human, it is still up to us to choose what's Right over what is easy!!!

Thank you for sticking up for the honor and integrity of honor and integrity, and sodomy! I mean, not sodomy.

You've inspired me to call out big name painter Anne Geddes on her immoral works of infantilism. Also, she cut me off in traffic once.

Please buy my book.

With Love and Light,
Thomas Kinkade, Painter of Light™, America's Most Collected Living Artist.

Despite what some of you would like to believe I am not devout Christian. Morality and faith are two very different things.

Really? What have I done to make myself an asshole. I don't curse, hit women, and I try to protect children. I guess this makes me an asshole.
