A Small Part Of Me Died Today...

<div class="IPBDescription">What is wrong with people?</div>
Right...so...let me try and compose myself...for the horrors I have just witnessed are more then anyone one human being should ever have to bear...

Like any good tale of soul crushing horror this one begins with a children’s book...

Necessary dramatics aside I finished the 6th installment of Harry Potter yesterday evening and like all of the HP books it was excellent, a page turner in every sense of the phrase. However, for me, it created more questions then any of the other books have before, I won't go into details for those who haven’t read the book. Those who have should know what I'm talking about.

So I went online and started poking around on forums and whatnot looking for good discussions and answers or at least other peoples theories as to what happened.

I'll spare you the run around but the badness started with me saying: "Oh Harry Potter fan-fic, this should be interesting." Wrong!

The fact that people can even type such things without spontaneously bursting into a myriad of colored flame is beyond me.

If I tried to repeat some of the things I read for you the nerves in my arm would bust through my flesh and choke me to death.

I tried to rationalize what I saw but the most comforting thought I could come up with is that this is a safe venue for child molesters and serial rapists.

It's not just the that the characters involved are between the ages of 13-17 depending on which atrocity you happen to be viewing...and let me say don't even try because their like flipping train wrecks...*shudder*

It's the attention to detail and the realization that the people writing these are like middle aged woman...

I'm going to stop...talk amongst yourselves...

    Ha ha you read Harry Potter porn. Anyone internet-wise should know that you should never ever read fan-fiction. Ever.

    I know it's a terrible place isn't it...

    I just had no idea until today that there was such a huge underground wealth of hardcore sexually themed Harry Potter stories....the thought just never occurred to me.

    Must be something wrong with me...hell there’s probably…no I’ll stop there.

    Time was the official HP forums were basically just an excuse for 12 year-olds to cyber with each other in-character.

    The general rule of the internet seems to be that if it exists then there's a pron site/story about it. Come to think of it... even if it doesn't exist there's <b>still</b> likely to be a sex site about it :s

    “Fine. You can play then. One game”

    Draco grinned and stepped into the yard. Everyone was already heading off to the back of the yard but she was stopped.
    “On one condition” He said grabbing her wrist.

    “I don’t trust those words”

    “I’ll play one game on one condition”

    “Then don’t play” She retorted pulling her arm away and heading off after everyone else.

    “Kiss me” He whispered in her ear after catching up with her.

    Not all fanfiction is bad, but if you intend to read it search out for fanfic RECOMMENDATIONS.

    <a href='http://www.alhena.net/hprecs/' target='_blank'>This site</a> for example recommends many decently written Harry Potter fanfics.

    <a href='http://www.harrypotterfanfiction.com/' target='_blank'>This site</a> is an example of a bad fanfiction site with thousands of terribly written fanfics, where finding a good one will be like finding a needle in a haystack.

    Man I late night browse and I STILL missed that. If you have a link to it or anything, I wouldn't mind a good laugh.
