Do you give a rat's ass who dies in the last Harry Potter book???

[LynneSin]

Haven't read any of the books and the most I've seen was like 15 minutes of one of the movies - but only because I couldn't find fresh batteries for the TV remote control (ended up just manuelly turning it off)

[LostinVA]

1. I may have to kick your ass, Sissie!!!

[LynneSin]

3. What took you so long to find an excuse

:shrug:

[LostinVA]

7. Good point

[Radio_Lady]

35. Keith Olbermann gave his opinion as to what will happen in the last book.

Unfortunately, I was washing dishes and paid no attention.

[JoDog]

41. I thought Keith's theory

was pretty good. He postulized that Harry's scar will end up being one of Voldemort's horacruxes, and Harry may end up trading his powers for the ability to render his enemy mortal, and thus destroy him.

[some guy]

2. no

I haven't read the books, nor seen any of the films.

[Rabrrrrrr]

4. You mean Scabber's ass? Nah, he turned out to be an animagus jerk.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

5. I'm hoping it's whomever's death will piss off the fans the most.

I don't know why I'm feeling so malicious.

[LynneSin]

6. Kinda like hoping that guy with the bad mohawk and off-key voice wins American Idol

I know where you're coming from.

When I was a kid, I use to cheer against Penn State just to annoy the bejesus out of everyone I knew

[Dr. Strange]

9. I think that's it!

Sanjaya is going to be killed.

But who did it? Harry Potter? Col. Mustard? Paula Abdul?

[TZ]

20. Gee who would have guessed you were a troublemaker..

from the title of this thread?;-) And yes, I do care (obviously since a random comment of mine started a considerably long HP thread yesterday):)

[TZ]

24. That's a normal thing for you isn't it?

Pissing people off?:P
(And yes, I am a fan and do care....);-)

[hfojvt]

37. I used to be a fan

but got pi$$ed off by book 4.

[HuffleClaw]

8. meh. you foolish muggle. n/t

[Dervill Crow]

11. One of the witches in my coven used the word "muggle" for "cowan."

I had no idea what she was talking about. I'm obviously not a fan.

[TommyO]

10. I haven't read any of the books either

I've listened to them all as narrated by the incredible Jim Dale.

[Dervill Crow]

12. Nope. n/t

[skygazer]

13. I do not

But I'm thinking it would be kind of cool if they did something like in that dreadful movie King Ralph when the entire royal family was wiped out by an electrical short while they posed for an outdoor family photo after a rain. :rofl:

[La Lioness Priyanka]

14. yes. i love the potter books.

[Burma Jones]

15. No, but my kids do........

You TRY to get them to read Plato........

[datasuspect]

16. abso-fucking-lutely not

[crim son]

17. No! No! No!

I find the books to be intolerably boring. I hate fantasy. I don't care what happens to any of the characters, not one! :7

[bamacrat]

18. No,

I hope they all do, kill any chance of any more.

[Tyler Durden]

19. I hope to GOD it's HARRY.

The hoopla for these MARGINALLY interesting books (MY PERSONAL OPINION) is just another distraction to me. Too many important things to worry about. Maybe if the little twerp (MY PERSONAL OPINION) croaks, maybe the books will end.

[datasuspect]

21. or "harry potter goes to prison"

or "harry potter has an industrial accident"

[LynneSin]

25. Maybe they'll do a 'Soprano' Ending for Harry Potter

All the kids and teachers are hanging out in the school cafeteria while milling around the cafeteria is everyone who ever wanted to do harm to these folks. Outside we see one of Harry's friends having trouble parallel parking her broomstick. Harry looks at the jukebox and decides to play "Don't stop believing" by Journey. Fade to Black

[LSK]

22. right on!!!

:popcorn:

[Debi]

23. How DARE you not LOVE the Harry Potter books!

:wow:

Actually I'm a fan and can't wait for the movie/book to come out but I've been over in GD and can't seem to shrug off my battle gear! :hi:

[Random_Australian]

26. No, unless the author decides to go out in a blaze of dadaist glory. Because that would be cool.

Just imagine - at the end, they're all standing around, and Hermoine pulls out a handgun and shoots that Hagrid guy. The Harry stares at a wall for 2 hours, then decides to poke out the eyes of a dragon and promply becomes Harry flambé.

That would be great.

[LynneSin]

27. Here's my Harry Potter ending

[TZ]

30. oh yeah?!!...I have just one thing to say to your lame-ass idea

PFFFFFFTTTTTT!!!!:P :P :P :P
(somebody has been watching waaay too many macho "blow em up" type movies...)

[Random_Australian]

32. What? Congratulations on a nonsensical post, turtlensue. I said "dadaist"

So there was no "action", just people demonstrating the fundamental irrationality of human nature.

Sheesh.

[TZ]

36. dadaist= nonsense or irrationality right?

So that would make my post just the right response to your "conjecture" I would think.
:P
I think you may be the only person to apply dadaism to Harry Potter...unique perspective indeed..seriously this is certainly a "discussion" I never expected to have.:D :crazy:

[hfojvt]

39. that sounds more like nihilism

I thought dada meant 'hobby horse' and urged a return to childlike innocence and spirit of playful fun. Irrational, perhaps, but not irrationally violent.

[Random_Australian]

40. Eh, death is just a dream.

(And perhaps I've very little idea of what dada is about)

[Deep13]

28. Possibly a rat's ass, but I sure would not give a squirrel's ass. nt

[Javaman]

29. A rat dies in harry potters ass??????

man talk about harry growing up!!!

[Fox Mulder]

31. I hope it's Harry who dies.

I'd love to see the look on the faces of the kids who read that section of the book.

I know, I'm evil. :evilgrin:

[ellisonz]

33. No.

[Xipe Totec]

34. Don't knock it without trying it

You may still hate it, but hey, give the books a chance.

Get the books from the library, so you don't have to subsidize it, if you don't like it.

But if you do like it, go out and buy it as penance.

[Left Is Write]

38. No.
