    --I can't. I just can't....It hurts to think about it, and when I opened the link, the story was so uninteresting, it hurt me. Physically. *points to head, as she's bleeding from her eyes* Right here.

    Not enough said at all, that deserved a 2 page long rant.

    Half the summaries on FF.net require burning at the stake and THEN a two page long rant. I have so many that I could possibly post, that I might hurt myself looking at them all.

    Here's another:

    what leaves must always return by theteenagebride
    they were 17. Fire melted ice. They eloped. The parents were furious. So they ran. They created a life for themselves living as muggles. Even he fitted in it. All because Fire melted ice. Now eleven years later the twins get their letters. So they return

    *dies* What..what WHAT what W.H.A.T?! Gaaah...lack of punctuation and grammar aside, this was tripe through and through. And the authorESS proclaims that she has a husband who reads her work....I certainly hope that english is their second language. I sincerely do, b/c otherwise -->Death.

    Or I hope she's just an eleven-year-old masquerading as a wife with english as a second language.

    I can only hope. *shakes head*

    Nah, some explosives need to be thrown into the fire while the summaries are burning at the stake and two page rants about them should be a new part of the school's plan. Informative essays and all that mess.

    How many similar stories to this have you found. This is the fourth one for me.

    Crazy enough to think that she's Harry's sister I bet.

    Um... I think that "ew" might come close to describing the images I got form this... or maybe I've just been hanging aorund dirty-minded people too long.

    What's the 't' for?

    I thought Sirius was James' best friend.

    And if Inuyasha beats HP summaries? I say:

    I say YYH beats Inuyasha. How many errors can you spot? I found fifteen. (Most YYH summaries are something like this; it's a Mary-sue playground as well.)

    Heh, heh; I think I hang around this thread a little too much.

    Well, see, InuYasha happens to have alot of Romance AND action/angsty stuff. So it's fanfiction is the stuff of....well...something dark and unimaginable. I absolutely loathe InuYasha fangirls. Really. LOATHE.

    Twincest, written in the wrong way, is horrifying. That's all.

    The thing that upset me the most was the spelling of the word human as humens. The author is seriously retarded if they can't even spell their own species name.

    I vote for the second option. Even if English is her second, third, or fourth language, it's not an excuse for writing such shitty romance. I can smell the clichés from where I sit (in front of my computer, drinking in order to drown my feeling of shame for belonging to the same species as the author of aforementioned story).

    It's not 'by' my interest.

    Amerision: At least it had a warning. I remember one fic summarised as 'Harry and Tonks go shopping, a trip which leads to love.' or something along those lines. You would think it was a Harry/Tonks, but suddenly...

    WHAM! Harry/Snape!

    I feel my brain melting just reading that intro...the spelling errors are bad enough by themselves to fry a few brain cells...the rest?

    Even if it's rubbish - there are still some quite original ideas for even outworn pairings and cliches ... this one made me lol ...

    The Bet by DellofFaith

    The bet was simple. Get Harry Potter to sleep with him and Draco would get Blaise's coveted porsche boxster in return. It was simple. Too bad Harry was celibate. Mpreg Warning.
