Well, see, but that's different. I know people who rave about how sexy Draco is, and I just... don't get it.

anonshadow

You know what I don't understand? People who like Snape, or Lucius, or Draco. I'm sorry, I just don't. Sometimes, I do like the bad-boy thing. I like the Sirius bad-boy thing. But I don't understand what's attractive about prejudicial Nazi-type assholes--especially ones with greasy hair.

anonshadow

Me, neither. I'm not reading the pdf or the spoilers, but I've been known to skip two hundred pages in a book so that I know what happens and can either adjust to the disapointment or comfort myself knowing that it works out well in the end. (I won't do that for Harry Potter, but I did do that for K...

I still don't see it, and Harry being miserable at the beginning of HBP would be missing the theme of HBP--which is that Harry comes out of being angry and miserable and accepts that he can be hurt without withdrawing. He misses Sirius; he doesn't withdraw from people because of it, and I think that...

Well unless I'm mixing up book 5 and 6 (it HAS been 2 years since I read them), wasn't there a part at the end of book 5 where it's explained to Harry that no one can come back from the gate once they disappear, and then he gets even more sad? I guess they didn't want to end the movie on a sad note...

i wonder that everyone is upset about the lack of closure concerning Sirius' death... Harry never gets any closure for Sirius death in the books, either. no funeral. no body. no time to adjust or say a proper goodbye. Harry doesn't even get to grieve properly in the books. Dumbledore's death is a s...

Jerry Seinfeld really doesn't translate well to text, does he?

Neo, I really wish that more men were like you--and I would agree with your assessment of the situation, in that it's absolutely about showing off. Unfortunately, it does happen pretty often--it happens to me at least a couple times a day, usually. And, especially if the guy's on foot, too, if I sta...

It's the tackiest thing ever, isn't it? I can't understand people who do it, and I have no respect for people who tolerate it when their friends do it.

Might I suggest a trip to the Big Island to look at Kilauea? Kauaʻi is beautiful, too.

anonshadow

I... don't really lurk. I'm just not really around. Too busy.

anonshadow

I don't want Sirius to be wrong again. Sirius needs to be right sometimes. The reason I don't see Percy snuffing it is--who cares?

My real theory is that Hagrid and/or Mrs. Weasley dies. I also suspect that the trophy of special awards to the school may be a Horcrux, but I'm not sure. I hope that RAB is not Regulus.

I find it hard to read many things on the computer; if someone sends me a story or something to read, I always print it out.

Am I the only lit freak who doesn't mind things like spine breaking and dogearing?

Edited: Since Jayelle asked so politely and so nicely.

If I've got free time, sure. My schedule has been packed lately, but it should have settled down by then.

Hee, thanks!

Thank you!

Dear you,

I dislike all the substance abuse that's been going on with you, you dunce. I hope that after she gives you part of her liver, your best friend takes you outside and beats you.

Dear Bob,

I dislike people who never return things that you loan them or leave with them accidentally, even when you specifically ask for them back.

that said--i do like the subway. i ride the NW which is an elevated train once it enters queens. i really like that; it's nice to start my morning in all that light, rather than being underground. and i like buses, too. public transportation is pretty handy. I love the elevated trains, too, but unf...

Like Kelly, I'm not going to try to bike around in this city (though I will be using it at college in the fall). Instead, I walk. And walk. And walk. On a normal day, three or four miles is pretty standard. It's gotten to the point that if my favorite pizza place is 20 or 25 blocks away, I don't eve...

^What she said.

It is easy to tell when someone is unable to write properly and when someone just cannot be bothered. You are obviously an example of the latter in your posts on pweb, because capitalization aside, your grammar and vocabulary is generally impeccable.

Currently, I'm contemplating becoming some kind of doctor and doing research, although there are half a dozen other things that I haven't ruled out, and three dozen more that I haven't considered that I will be exposed to when I finally start school in the fall. If one has the flexibility, I don't t...

No, I'm not saying to give up. I'm just saying that he needs to not look at this as showing a solution to the problem in any way, and that instead he needs to take advantage of this upswing to broach topics like therapy and start doing research.

Craig, from my own torrid experience, I can tell you this: four good days means nothing. It's nice while it lasts, but long term, a couple days where all goes well doesn't mean "cured" in any sense of the word. It means that the problems will just pop back up soon, and you're lulled into a...

Scientific, without a doubt. I believe that everything can be explained through science, and I prefer that explanation to any other.

All I know is, if Giuliani gets elected, I'm going to throw a tantrum.

Dude. Family values? The man told the press he was divorcing his wife before he told her!

You can recreate at home. Use your free time at school to go play frisbee outside with CDs through the neighborhood windows :-D For what it's worth though, I've gone to "inner city" schools and they have all had some sort of grounds outside of just the building. Well, CDs through neighbor...

See, and if there are limited resources, I can understand blocking entertainment sites. At my first high school, if someone needed to use a computer or one of the laptops for school stuff and went around the library asking if anyone using one didn't need it for school, they would generally end up wi...
