    I strongly suspect I read that before. I do not enjoy the memory. Doesn't she randomly fuck Malfoy somewhere along the line?

    Amy Lee... the Bitch-Queen of Emoland.

    My cousin is hot and I regret being related to her. All the stuff I cant do 'cause she's a relative...

    mayor fagotry

    Epic fail.

    But it's not amusing. Not amusing at all.

    Yeah, but she's a good looking bitch, and thats all that matters, right?

    P.S: Is it possible to add a new article to Potter Law?

    Good Charlotte is unaware of the existence of Hogsmeade.
    For it's own sake, Hogsmeade returns the favor

    This doesn't even begin to make sense; why would you want to be related to someone you think is hot?

    The worst is misquoting famous lines. "Religion is the opiate of the masses", for example is taken out of context waaaay too much. With context: "Religion is the sigh of the oppressed creature, the heart of a heartless world and the soul of soulless conditions. It is the opium of the people.".

    Or, my personal pet peeve, "The rest is science". If you're gonna quote Shakespeare, you might as well make sure that you've the correct quote.

    Then there are writers who have a shitty sense of connotation. For example, smirking is associated with arrogance, and makes the character who is smirking seem pretentious as hell. Smirking =/= cool.

    And Han Solo is the only one who gets to grin lopsidedly.

    I wonder if it runs in the family?

    Yes that is an actual Quote.

    I dont know if its been mentioned before, so Im gonna do it anyway.

    Lightening/Lightning

    Lightening is when you make something less heavy. Lighter.

    Lightning is the electricity from the sky, and the shape of Harry's scar.

    GET IT RIGHT!

    Snape, gender bending in On the Wings of a Phoenix chapter 11

    Definitely, Hogwarts robes hide too much

    In that case, I'd say they don't hide enough.

    I think concealing a proper pair of breasts is quite a feat. Especially since Snape isn't a particularly fat man,and those robes are quite tight.

    Yeah, its despiccable. Some things don't get better with the addition of breasts (or breast sizes).

    Some things need to be made abundantly clear. Fem!Snape is one perversion i have never seen, and hopefully will never see.

    Wich reminds me... how come there are no hermaphrodite characters? It's a new evil i have never seen fangirls try. Let's see...

    Snape is a hermaphrodite. Lily is bisexual. One late night study session just got interesting.

    I disagree. Indiana Jones did the lopsided grin quite well too... usually just after he realized he was royally fucked ^.^


    Peeve I've been running into lately is author's using 'loose' instead of 'lose' BIG difference.

    Someone wrote Dumbstrang. I think they misspelled it, but perhaps its just a school of magic for special needs wizards.
