    You know there's something wrong with you when the first thing that jumps out of that summary is the Ron/Hermione goodness.

    Ugh. Anyone know of a picture with Herms beating the shit out of Won-Won?:D

    Ramus's gref fith
    Y'know - that's so distorted, it sounds like it might be actual terms ... just not English. Germanic, maybe?

    Germanic? I'm not sure what you mean, English is a Germanic Language, more likely its grief and fifth, and the fag can't spell,

    Don't forget "Ramus." ;) Who the hell is that, anyway? Nobody from canon is named *that*.

    Bratling (who knows that they mean "Remus")

    I considered it was fairly obviously the idiot meant Remus, no need to be a smart ass.

    I know it isn't Harry Potter, but I figured this deserved a place here anyway.

    *gags*

    And, just for the lulz, a review:

    Wow, you're only TWELVE and you're already writing homosexual stories?! And your first fanfic, too...

    Anyway, I have to say the little poem was pretty good, not too bad, but, well, the whole Norry/Jack thing. I could have liked it better if it was Jack/AnaMaria (by the way, I was highly dissapointed by her absence in the 2nd movie, weren't you?) or Jack/Elizabeth, or maybe Norry/random-chick, or Norry/Elizabeth.

    So, toodles, and keep writing poems!

    Here's one.

    Haunting Memories » by Bellatrix'sTwin reviews I not quite syre the title fits. It's another Askaban story, but I'm not quite syre if these characters were in there at the same time. Anyways, it has some flashbacks. P.S. this is my first fanfic so I hope you like it!Fiction Rated: T - English - General - Chapters: 6 - Words: 2,492 - Reviews: 15 - Updated: 2-23-08 - Published: 11-24-07

    Found another:

    Warfare by doRodrigo reviews
    After a swift decision and a huge inheritance Harry wage war the muggle way against Voldemort. Now the Dark Tosser is going to learn that muggles can teach wizard something about real power.
    Complete - Fiction Rated: T - English - General/Adventure - Chapters: 7 - Words: 41,893 - Reviews: 329 - Updated: 8-9-07 - Published: 6-20-06

    Let's see:
    grammar error in the summary
    sudden personality change
    big inheritance
    stupid and insulting nickname for Voldemort
    Riddle apparently Had No Idea that non-magical people could fight, too (despite having grown up In London during WWII)

    At least the chapters seem to be of decent length - and it doesn't mention an HG pairing. This one is in a Manipulative!Dumbledore C2.

    Your jokes are even more fail than the story.

    This was rather ... unusual I suppose.

    Through Dumbledore's Eyes » by SylvaDragon reviews Starts just after Harry is left with the Dursleys, how can Albus explain his reasons for leaving Harry with those muggles, when Minerva won't speak to him ? Will she ever forgive him ? Albus misses her so much. Angsty, romantic, funny. Lots of MMADness.Fiction Rated: K+ - English - Romance/Angst - Chapters: 2 - Words: 1,895 - Reviews: 4 - Updated: 2-25-08 - Published: 2-22-08

    Oh God, I can remember reading about six chapters of that before I clicked away in disgust. I read as far as Snape saving him from the prison where he was shanked.

    I've actually seen worse, sad as it is. There's one oft-rec'ced story in which the author delights in a continual angst-fest and within the first few chapters puts Harry in a wheelchair and then throws him off a skyscraper. I gave up after that, but he must have somehow survived, because there were thirty more chapters!

    I once read a story where Harry is crippled by voldemort and each time he is on the verge of leaving the hospital wing something stupid put's him back in, he spent about a month inside a dragons egg which gave him a fire breathing ability that he never used.......not even once.
