Shows how truly idotic Harry Potter fans are.

Spirrow 07-20-2007 08:20 PM

Edit:
About 40 minutes to go before the book is released here in America.

Havoc, you gave me an idea:

Seeing Moxco. talk crap: 20 going-on-my-nerves
Seeing Daxter King talk s**t: 800 going-on-my-nerves
Seeing Havoc's tiger avatar that looks like it wants sex: 15,000 going-on-my-nerves
Seeing Ghost's common sense: 5 going-on-my-nerves
Seeing the general "idiocity" and excitement: Priceless........

I now possess DH. But who cares about a right wing jerkasses possessions anyway.

Harry Potter dies, right after he shanks Ron with is "wand". The End.




No, I am serious, thats the entire book, it just repeats those events in every chapter.

Yeah! Just like in all the other versions of the pre-release I found online.

Has anyone seen CRACKED's analysis on the top 6 questions potter fans are aksing about? very humourous....

It doesn't WANT sex, it's already HAD sex. That's its satisfied expression.

Spirrow 07-21-2007 06:08 AM

Nope, I meant the non-existing word "idiocity" to describe a non-existing forum, itself. We're all imaginary figures-mindless drones.

Well, the books is now here. And now mother tells me that if she had the money and knew it was at midnight this morning she would have took me to Wal-Mart or some bookstore(she thought it was tonight).

My Brother, My Brother's Girlfriend and Myself went out at 11:30pm last night as the book was selling at Midnight. We did that in order to get the book. It was at Asda for £5. And we managed to get a copy. I'm still reading it. It's pretty good so far.

Strike Witch 07-21-2007 05:32 PM

Had a quick look at some of the spoiler discussions at HP fansites. Lots of crying and sadness over spilt milk (deaths).

It's really quite funny.

Arxryl 07-21-2007 05:43 PM

Bought the book last night and I am enjoying reading it....although waiting until midnight and then reading a bit last night has got me more than a little tired...;)

Zeikio 07-21-2007 06:45 PM

I'm waiting for my dad to finish reading it because he wouldn't let me read it first.

I already know who dies and a few do make me sad but the rest of the people I don't really care about

I nearly choked when I started to laugh you bastard. I find that picture dangerous for oddworld forums society eating ice cream while looking at it!

Al the Vykker 07-30-2007 10:08 PM

Even though the last chapter (epilogue) was a bit too happy, this book was most excellent. I suppose the extreme cheeriness of the end counters naturally the extremely dark places this book and the last two have explored. I was surprised about the death toll that racked up by the end, many of those deaths really shocking and tragic. Overall, is one of my favorite books in the series and ties if not surpasses Half Blood Prince in my opinion, even though the book broke many traditions when it came to setting and some of the really light hearted moments in past books. I have not decided whether it will beat Goblet of Fire though, but as I said highly satisfying conclusion to a truly "Magical" series.

Nate 08-01-2007 04:07 AM

I finished it at 3:30 last night. I recommend to anyone who hasn't read it yet (and why the hell would you be in this thread if you hadn't?) not to read past page 450 without plenty of time on your hands. The first 2/3 of the book were rather slow but the climax was the best out of the series.

She's done a good job of confirming some of the fan theories yet at the same time doing them differently enough to still be satisfying. I'm happy with the way it ended.

Arxryl 08-01-2007 09:34 AM

I finished the book three days after getting it, and overall I thought it was a really good book. Yeah, the setting for most of the book was different, but altogether a good end to the series.

6-finger-fred 08-01-2007 11:24 AM

I cheated and read it up on wikipedia. >.>

Nemo 08-02-2007 02:26 AM

Borrowed my dad's friend's copy, read it in about a day.


Power reading FTW.

Mac Sirloin 08-03-2007 07:36 PM

Finished it (with my family) and I can honestly say I am not disappointed, She really did a good job tying things up.

Neville beheading Nagini FTW.

Nate 08-03-2007 09:17 PM

Yeah, I like how she brought back all the characters we know and love for one last hurrah.

Neville's Grandma FTW!

Hell yeah! Oliver Wood returning for the final battle that's when you know it's epic.

Marvak 08-04-2007 01:12 AM

Just finished reading it this morning (har, I'm slooow...). I must say, it's an absolutely gorgeous story, anyone who hasn't already read it needs to do so asap. Harry pretending to be dead near the end was pretty 'o_o' for me, but that was cool.
...Yeah. I liked it muchly.

It actually took me a few seconds to register who he was when I read it.

Neville's Grandma is the ultimate badass. She couldv'e pwned Voldemort easy if she'd wanted, she just wanted Harry to have the satisfaction. ;)

Havoc 08-04-2007 04:10 PM

I think this topic is warranted for a big *SPOILERS* in the topic title, Nate. I've seen at least 10 already.

Rich 08-04-2007 06:16 PM

Fair point Havoc, I'll edit it.

I'm reading the book, rather slowly as going out and getting wasted is interfering with my nightime reading, but I already know what happens. :p

Hulaabeo 08-04-2007 06:20 PM

I heard The Weasly twins died in it

I figured that would be self-evident.
