Am I the only one who thinks the Pumpkin Pie wank is hysterically funny? No, I'm not talking about the rational H/Hr people who are disappointed that their ship isn't canon (although we H/D people deal with that on a daily basis and for the most part DON'T CARE).
I'm talking about the nutters, here, folks.
I mean, geez. They're raising money to put an ad in the NY Times!!!! Directed at JKR, apparently. Because of course, she reads the NY Times with her English Breakfast tea every morning whilst sitting in her kitchen in England where of course the NYT is SO relevant to British life because OMG the US is the CAPITAL OF THE WORLD, and therefore everyone must know what goes on there at all times.
If anyone takes out an ad in the Providence Journal I shall die from amusement. C'mon, Rhode Island. I double-dog-dare you.
And the petition? HAHAHAHAHAAA. So funny.
Geez, guys. Get a clue, get a life. Go for a walk in the woods, take some classes, learn to dance or something.
Besides, like
And anyway, I think if JKR did read an ad in the NYT like that she'd think it was as funny as I do.
*Rolls around on the floor laughing*
ETA: From the petition:
The summary of true love. But there are anvils, too, for HHr. I'm sorry you don't see them. It's the friendship, the base of a successfull ship. neither HG nor RH have had it.
Um, she doesn't have to "see" anything. She wrote the story, for Salazar's sake. She can turn Harry AND Hermione into tiny little tree toads if she wants to
*keeps on laughing*

P.S. I'd love your icon if I knew what it was all about.

Oh, the suffering!!
I'm sure JKR will feel SO VERY SORRY for them and rewrite the book.

Whatever. I'm torn between being highly amused and just flat out disgusted.

Date: 2005-07-22 02:06 pm (UTC)I also read one that was like 'we're a PIRATE ship now, because we aren't going to be in canon' and I'm wondering... does she think that EVERYONE ELSE thinks their ship is going to be canon?? The mind boggles. I dare anyone to find me a Snape/Harry shipper who thinks it will happen in canon. I would say H/D, but you know, there's probably a couple of crazies who might think that, so I thought I'd go with Snarry, because it might be a little safer in my claim. Still. OMG. WE'RE NOT CANON, OH NO.
The only thing I think about this? Join the fucking club, people, and stfu!
