A Harry Potter fan calling anything else "overrated" will never stop being funny.

Not everyone thinks HP was the greatest thing on earth. Deal with it.

oh

I'm not a Harry Potter fan

oop at you

You're sure as hell creaming yourself like one.

[identity profile] fairhearing.livejournal.com 2011-08-05 02:09 am (UTC)(link)
CREAMING myself? Over what precisely? The fact that the books have intrinsic value even if I don't like them? Just as The Black Cauldron and The Dark is Rising did?

You're just like every other ~literary nerd~ who makes herself feel better by hating on popular shit and claiming it's so much worse than the GOOD stuff which only smart people like you enjoy. Harry Potter is overrated as fuck, but lol at the idea that SUSAN COOPER isn't also overrated, or is somehow astronomically and objectively better? Classic mark of the immature brain to have to shit on something else to express your love for your SUPERIOR stuff.

Luckily, everyone who's read these less popular authors will chime in to agree because it sure is sweet to feel elite, as witnessed in these very comments.

Snobbery is tiresome as hell, but it's so much worse when the thing you're a snob about isn't even particularly good.

tl;dr I thought you were getting out of this thread *yawn*

[identity profile] fairhearing.livejournal.com 2011-08-05 02:19 am (UTC)(link)
you're right :(

Don't be sad, it takes guts to admit your shortcomings. Good night~

(Anonymous) 2011-08-05 02:22 am (UTC)(link)
Uh...yeah. Whatever that was about.

Somebody's pretty mad for claiming to have no dog in this fight.

[identity profile] nyteowl112.livejournal.com 2011-08-05 05:50 am (UTC)(link)
I'd be mad too if I'd been insulted. But, ya know, who expects human behavior from human beings. I mean really.

(Anonymous) 2011-08-05 06:03 am (UTC)(link)
Right. Because her calling someone else a brainwashed philistine in another thread earlier is totes not insulting at all.

(Anonymous) 2011-08-05 07:46 am (UTC)(link)
girl was just calling out the comment she replied to as what it was:

"I don't understand why something is popular" = "everyone else being dumb as fuck falling for marketing schemes"

but you know, being funny unlike other responses here -_-

(Anonymous) 2011-08-05 03:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Except that wasn't what the anon said at all? So I have no idea WTF Fairhearing is on about.

(Anonymous) 2011-08-05 10:49 am (UTC)(link)
Where's your brain? Because the whole "brainwashed philistines" was not fairhearing saying "Oh, this is what you are! Blaargh!" It was a restatement of the ridiculous words spewing from anon's fingertips. If anyone was being insulting, it was the anon, who was saying "anyone who thinks X is just stupid and brainwashed."

So, read a grownup book or something before you start throwing YOUR stupid around like you know what the hell you're talking about.

(Anonymous) 2011-08-05 03:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Anon didn't say "anyone who likes HP is stupid and brainwashed." That would be you jumping to a butthurt conclusion because OMG, how DARE anyone not think HP was classic literature.

I don't think it's ridiculous to chalk up the popularity of a mediocre work to good marketing. Unless you want to argue that Twilight should be hailed a work of genius now, too.

(Anonymous) 2011-08-05 03:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Aaaaaaaaand Fairhearing calling the OP an "unjustified snob" because she doesn't agree isn't insulting? She's just getting the buillshit she usually dishes out. Too bad for her if she can't take it without turning into a shrieking bitch.
