    Sadly , I've probably read a few Harry/Umbridge stories out there.
    Thank god I've never found any smut... Damn, now I'm gonna have to search that up, aren't I..

    I hate the internet.

    Until I read the last thing you listed I was actually thinking of Harry x Marge...

    *After actually looking up the pairing* Well I guess that that part of my innocence is gone too

    *Obliviate*

    Hint: Don't look up 'The ultimate punishment' by NotAmanda

    Don't make me laugh. Nobody on DLP has a shred of innocence left. Y'all a bunch of cynical bastards.

    my eyes... They burn...

    EDIT: What was the name of that fanfic website with all the horrifying smut? Where you can find literally anything?

    Thank you so much for that. I could have gone through my whole life never reading that, but you just had to mention it didn't you.

    I've had enough internet for the day.

    Except for the last one they're about 95% m/m slash.

    I have to wonder, Wordhammer, what was going through your mind when you wrote that Harry/Lily fic in the HP fanfic archive.

    Oh great, I just can't get enough of that stuff. Hopefully I can find some more m-pregs as well. There's just not enough of it around.

    Same thing that goes through my mind every night;
    naked girls... magic... wordplay...

    Edit: I don't see much slash on Ficwad in the HP section, but the others are guilty as accused. Hpfanficarchive swears by its no-slash policy, but conversely hosts a glut of harem madness of varying degrees.

    Most of it written by MegaMatt09. Awful, awful writer and the amount of stuff he puts out borders on spam.

    They actually ban slash? That's going too far.:(

    Yeah, well, it's Chad's clubhouse so he makes the rules, and the rules attract the readers and writers and stories that he wanted.

    Well, I didn't deny his right to make rules on his website as he sees fit, just as it is our right to say, that these rules suck.

    Your thoughts on slash aside, i quite like the idea of not having my search pool diluted with slash fics.

    Especially when most search filters that let you filter pairing types inexplicably include 'gen' when selecting m/f, which is ff code for 90% likelihood of slash.

    Wait a sec, you're saying that banning slash is a bad idea? Really? o_O

    Yes. Just because I don't like it, I wouldn't deny it to those who do.

    What? Plenty of sites specialize in certain types of erotic fiction. What's wrong with not wanting something on your site that your readers are specifically trying to ignore? It doesn't mean that the site is "denying" someone that wants to read slash, merely that they have to go elsewhere to find it, which is really not that hard.

    How about we go back on topic?

    Here's one peeve, not exactly recently acquired, but it'll do.

    Train-ride friendships when first journeying to Hogwarts. Yes, I know it can be done decently, even fantastic, but it just irks me how people that Harry sat in the compartment with would become his besties and how, occasionally, Harry would just end up in the same House as them, conveniently circumventing whatever House boundaries there might have, or not, preventing him from reaching out.

    I'm not quite sure why, but it aggravates me a lot.

    It's worth mentioning that while in canon Harry became friends with Ron during the train ride, when he met Hermione on the same trip she came across poorly.
