I don't mind, not my LJ. It's almost certainly fake, but I'd certainly
*like* to see some of the more unbalanced "fans" dealt with that bluntly.

Yep, lol.. apparently people can't distinguish between *fanfic chats*
either! I can't imagine JKR responding that way to anyone; nor can I
allow myself to believe ANY chat with ANY "celebrity" author would be
unmoderated. It just wouldn't happen.

When I posted the link originally, I forgot to add a disclaimer line; I
posted one a couple minutes later, but you know how that goes.

Yeah, I'm sure it's a fake, but it's still pretty damn funny, and
considering how many fans I've seen on-line that really *are* that
obnoxious given half a chance, it was a breath of fresh air to see one
get put in their place - even in a fantasy encounter...

The fact that there were no missspellllings should have tipped you off.

Oh that is bloody priceless, unfortunately I've seen some of the Harmony
shippers' rants and that little piece of creative fiction could really be
considered understating some of the reactions that were areound on some
forums after the HBP release. You only need to read Emerson's special
edition wall of shame over on Mugglenet to see it.

What I don't get though is that of all of those who followed that aspect of
the stories, as I did in a small way, it was only one particular group that
really indulged in the emotional meltdown when they were dissapointed.

Okay, now I have to go see this wall of shame.

I don't understand. It's been a while and Harry's never seemed
"interested" in Hermione. Of course, he never seemed interested in
Ginny... until he was. Heheheh

Of course I thought this summed it up quite nicely too. :)
