What's with the news box?

[techmaster-glitch]

A few of the things in the news box are popping up stuff about Harry Potter. I know it's not from the books, though. My best guess is that it's some sort of fanfiction. But the reference is going right over my head, can someone please explain what it's all from?

[Eibborn]

ALL ABOARD THE BADFIC TRAIN! CHOO CHOOOO!

[Kenji]

Blame Australia.

[Sienna Maiu - M T]

Yeah seriously. This afternoon I saw them and decided to look it up. EGADS the Horror!!! Before today, I had never truly seen a real Mary-Sue.
As you can imagine, I didn't bother going far.

I was shivering. I don't even like Harry Potter (that much) and I would never make such an atrocity against it and it's fandom!

All atrocities shall remain in the realm of Naruto, and thuroughly in my mind.

[superluser]

Harry Potter and the Dungeon of Consenting Adults?

Also, any chance of getting some lines from Monty Python's Storytime?

One day Ricky the magic Pixie went to visit Daisy Bumble in her tumbledown cottage. He found her in the bedroom. Roughly he gabbed her heavy shoulders pulling her down on to the bed and ripping off her...

Old Nick the Sea Captain was a rough tough jolly sort of fellow. He loved the life of the sea and he loved to hang out down by the pier where the men dressed as ladies...

Rumpletweezer ran the Dinky Tinky shop in the foot of the magic oak tree by the wobbly dumdum bush in the shade of the magic glade down in Dingly Dell. Here he sold contraceptives and...

No?  OK.

[Tapewolf]

My guess was it was some kind of "top ten bad Harry Potter fanfics".  I could have tried to find them of course, but just the one about Harry getting "fattened" was enough to persuade me against that.

[Zedd]

My head feels like this when people speak of that name Potter

[TheDXM]

You know what we need? A fanfiction inquisition.

That's blatant heresy right there.

[Faerie Alex]

NO ONE expects the FANFIC INQUISITION!

[DarkAudit]

With a melon?

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

Our main weapon is Surprise. And a melon.
Our two main weapons are Surprise, and a melon. And a box.
Our three... Among our weapons are Surprise, a Melon, and a Box... Look, can we come in again?

[Kamunt]

Witty Monty Python line from the same skit!



....I got nothin'.

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

....I got nothin'.

Bring... the Soft Cushion!

... doesn't seem to be doing much.

Ok, in that case, Bring, the Comfy Hare!

*brings in TGH, seats Kamunt on him*

[RJ]

>_> I'm not saying a word about it or the controversy it caused.

But there's a doll of the character on the Mary Sue grotto.

[LionHeart]

Blame Australia.

We had nothing to do with it. None of us were even there at the time.

Incidentally, how can someone have "orange spicy" hair? Unless that's a typo...

[Tapewolf]

Dunno what 'spicy' usually refers to as a colour, but ginger is a spice and that's kind of orangy.

[Sajoli]

Blargh... This stuff makes me want to curl up in a corner with a nice hot cup of cider and cry my eyes out and write emo poems. I thought that someone must have written this as a joke, but I NEVER would have guessed this was actually someone's idea of good writing.

The darkness of my soul,
It cries black blood
As I read the blasphemies
of
the Harry Potter fandom.

How much you wanna bet that the writer's an eleven-year-old girl with only a few friends?

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

I'll take you up on that. How much did you want to bet?


(the fact that I know the outcome is neither here nor there, right? ;-] )

[RJ]

I won't comment, I just won't.

was it you?

also, fixed the topic.

[TheDXM]

"News: AN: ALL OF YOU ARE MEAN AND JEALOUS! I am going to keep wirtng this no matter what you say! Kitsune is awesome and the best!"

I'm pretty sure I've lost a few brain cells.

Like the box would said...A few? ;-]

[TheDXM]

That depends. Is enough to legally cripple you considered 'a few?'

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

was it you?

No.

Two?

[Sienna Maiu - M T]

You don't mean to tell me that those typoes are on purpose?!?!

The sad thing is... my selective memory told me that it was actually well written in it's own way.
But when I go back and find out that "flattened" was spelt "fattened" and "spiky" as "spicy", I find that I really have no words.


I'm willing to bet that RJ knows what's up though.
Also... for some reason she's turning into Tsunade in my mind, which really makes no sense.

I discovered the thing... oh horrors of horrors.

Also, I've yet to develop a drinking problem.

How bout gambling?
And you are a squirrel, so technically nuts can replace alcohol...

Well what are you waiting for then? Hurry up girl!

[superluser]

Ron looked grumpie as he heard some of the other boys around him talk about her.

I'd like some Grum Pie.

[Sienna Maiu - M T]

Who wouldn't?
