104 I love me some Grant, let me tell ya.
105 I feel you—not about that actor, but another actor who's lost weight recently and I'm like, awesome for you because health is yay, but still.
119 IAWTS
123 IAWTS
124 That's pretty awesome, actually.
129 You're joking, right?
142 I am totally with you.
146 Thank you for giving us non-Joker Heath. That's one of my favorite scenes in film, ever.
153 HP fandom broke my heart and I can say that it wasn't until I started getting involved in other fandoms and reading F!S that I realized that my reaction to the books wasn't "disrespectful to JKR" or that I wasn't a "bad fan" for seeing flaws. Like them all you want, awesome, but be aware that from the time OotP came out until DH came out the people who got what they wanted in canon lorded it over the people who didn't hard core, calling them ungrateful and stupid and bad fans. It's only now, after being in other fandoms, that I've realized that it doesn't have to be like that, that for a lot of people fandom isn't about being "right" or winning and losing. But those people really thought that once a certain group of fans were "proven wrong" they would do their duty and leave fandom, hopefully taking down and destroying all their non-canon fics as they left. But that didn't happen, and the tiny amount of pride I do have in my participation in that fandom is in knowing that even if they did get what they wanted in canon, they'll never be happy because my non-canon fics still exist on the internet.
So all that stuff that people write about defiantly not liking the books? That's what they're talking about, and that's who they're reacting to.
154 I love that idea! What a great ship!
163 I think as long as your intentions aren't trollish—that you don't mean "let's poke at the ranty people" when you say "fun to discuss"—that's really fine by me.
