Once again, the OBH-ers... alright, just one, that adorable kid that we all know as Hickory Dickory Dak. He sure does have the mouth, though, screaming "VICTORY!" for H/G. I should be laughing, but I feel pretty bad for them. If everyone went and deserted Ron/Draco after we "got our way", I'd be upset. It's just not the same unless someone's there shipping in a nice community. I mean, as a Luna/Lucius shipper, I'm quite lonely and alone. The H/Gers must be feeling it hardcore.
If only we had the Ginny that should have been, and not the Ginny that was Sued beyond recognition.

Ron/Draco continues to dance all over canon's grave (which was sloppily dug by the Epilogue of Doom).

P.S: Don't think we don't see you Ret Coning Dumbledore, Rowling. That's a nasty trick, and I should've known you'd pull a bitch move like that. Literary coward.

Maybe victory yell was the wrong choice of words? It seemed like the most polite way to put it. Either way, it was "We're right (preference again), they're wrong, so we don't need to have any more discussions, and that's why..."

Didn't you say that all slash was OOC because there are no gays in Harry Potter (aside from recently ret Conned Dumbledore the sanitized)? I never meant to imply that slashers were mean and nasty. What I was trying to say was that those in the fandom that are looking to bash rarely try to bash slashers. You know, that whole thing about it being untouchable?

Which nickname do I need to be careful with Cousin It? After all, doesn't the character make a squeaky noise like a harpsiccord, kind of grating on the ears? Describes you to a T.
All of them, Dakkywobbles. People will call us shameless, you know! Your misconseption of T, though, makes me think I need to give you a few more visual aids on the journal, (not the kind in your first icon). If Ruin and I ever do our podcast, we'll all have a chance to sort out our differences, because honestly, I think we're getting to the point of agreeing to disagree. How positively heron-ic.

If not, then you'll at least part with some hearing AIDS.

Pfft, I dunno about the 'we don't need any more discussions' part, but I do concede the 'we were right' bit. However, if you're casting about looking for the proper words in place of 'victory yell', I would suggest 'pointing out a fact', or 'stating the obvious', even.

Slash IS OOC..for established characters. I couldn't begin to tell you which way Ernie MacMillan swings.

As for slashers being untouchable, I don't play by conventions. That said, I don't go after a slasher for being a slasher. If they're a slasher and an idiot, I'll go after them, but only for the latter reason. It's why I'm here, after all.

As for the nicknames...the variety belongs to you Cousin It. If you think my choice for you doesn't apply, then spell out why you think so.

However, if you want to part ways for now, that's fine. I'll be here when you're ready to resume.

I like "pointing out fact". That's always a good word. However, it looks more like making excuses. Remember the post, it's why we're all here.

And here I thought you were here because you didn't like the cut of my jib. Isn't that why you paid your first visit? But you're getting better at learning what hurts, and for that I'm proud of you. This is all going swimmingly.

Nevermind the nicknames thing. It was a deflecto refrence.

Some day I'd really like to get a sense of your take on what queer is and what it isn't. Maybe it goes back to your (apparent?) use of the two-gender system. Or should I leave that alone, lest you think I'm trying to convert you. Ever read Brokeback Mountain?

Well, whatever you believe, let me be clear: I honestly, truly, do not believe for a moment that the dearth of H/G activity has more to do with H/G shippers being disgruntled about DH than I do with them being fed up with the hypocrisy of FAP. I'm not making excuses. This is the truth as I understand it.

I don't like you because of your callous attitude. Your sexual preferences mean absolutely squat to me.

I never read Brokeback Mountain. I saw the movie instead. Thought it was excellent. Was really pleased it was filmed in Alberta Canada, home to far too many homophobic rednecks who were appalled by it.

Actually, thank you for your example. Remember that revolting bit about the psycho Phelps and how they were glad Heath Ledger was dead because of that film? Yeah, that's the same attitude you showed Laurel.

Where's Peter? =(

The Phelps/Ledger example isn't a very good one, especially considering who you're having a conversation with. You can do better, but that's alright. I'll take the corn and throw away the shaft. All better?

The sooner we stop taking all of this so seriously (so seriously, so seriously), the sooner we both realize how funny the situation is, the happier we'll be. Yeah?

I represent good Marauders, not evil ones. :P

If you don't like my analogy, you have the other one I offered in owls.

If you want to stop, we'll stop.

If we can't fix it, then we'll just have to stand it.
