    I thought about posting this in Bad Summaries, but I think this fits it better.

    That, and I wanna see how badly people blast this fic. =P

    Of course it's not at all hard to find! Go to FF.net and you'll find some really crappy ones on the first few pages.

    I guess that depends if he keeps the fairy voice. "Oh Fleur darling, you look just absolutely scrumptious today." But huh...what a weird reversal of the standad fangirl plot.

    My comments in bold.

    This was as far as I could get in the story. I rapidly scrolled down past to see the comments. While doing this, I saw that the author had attempted - and failed to do first-person and second-person. I also saw some words in CAPS-LOCKS, which I'd bet my life are when Harry Potter yells at Dumbledore.

    In the first page there are so many logical inconsistencies, ideas done to death, and grammar/spelling mistakes that I feel a headache coming up.

    In conclusion. Utter fail. The story loses. To the author: Go kill yourself for even thinking about this story. It's so stupid even George W. Bush couldn't have thought it good. But before you do that, go fuck yourself long and hard. Long and hard. With something sharp and pointy. While thinking about what mistake your poor parents made while raising you that caused you to burden the world with your disgusting presence.

    I refreshed the page three times to make sure it had loaded correctly.

    I came, I read, I reviewed:
    Did I miss anything? I was going to just go sit in a corner and weep (Wrist//) but I couldn't just let it pass considering the other two reviews he got, though crappy, told him to continue.
    :(
    Why must the world be full of stupid people?

    Manatheron's review: 2 paragraphs
    The entire story so far: 1 paragraph
    Manatheron's review: 186 words
    The entire story so far: 179 words

    And my favorite part of the 143 words of author's notes (that combine into a giant 322 word post) was this: Also this chapter will appear in another chapter later in this story.

    Another by Adevilinthedark: Back In Time

    Some highlights:

    First Chapter:

    In a summary Harry's five years at Hogwarts are retold, with some 'addidtions', i.e. Harry was spending most of the nights during his third year in the Chamber of Secrets, memorizing Slytherin's secret library, etc.

    The following happens right after OotP (Harry obviously learned Apparation during year five)

    Hit by a killing curse he is thrown back in time and lands right in front of the Black sisters and their best friend Lilith "Lily" Grindelwald ...

    Second Chapter:

    I didn't dare to look into the third chapter.

    Yep - In fanfics I have seen many definitions concerning "speech", thoughts, Parseltongue, Toddlergebabble, but that is really innovative.

    Yeah. If you need a legend or key to explain who's talking when or how, then the author's not really trying.

    But I like that he's an elemental with control over... liquid hot magma.

    You missed being able to spell Voldemort correctly. Don't accuse people of being stupid if you can't spell.

    On the other hand, the author lies in the same boat. :p

    was there a point to that post?

    Other than trying to insult me I mean. Because I really don't think anyone else really gave a damn that I hit the wrong key when spelling He-who-has-a-crappy-anagram's name.

    Anyway:

    Yes, because we give a damn about what their kids go though...

    Summery: A timetravel fic with a difference. My first fic so please be nice. WARNINGS: Abuse, Evil!Dumbledore

    In truth, the summery caught my attention, what with the Evil!Dumbledore, but this is a cliché fest. Possibly the most unoriginal opening chapter of all time.
