*sporfle!*

I see wank on the horizon
Emma Watson is legal! 4-15-1990

Today will bring good tidings of wank, by George!

	Based on what I've seen somewhere else on the Interwebs, there'll be people who'll say that she's been legal for two years already, since she's British and the legal age of consent was apparently 16. But yes. There will be wanking. One way or another. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	It is. She's been legal for two years, but now is the age she can buy alchohol in a normal bar (instead of being given it inside private residences, which is much earlier, or buying certain types of drink in a restaurant with food which is from 16. Basically, it's rather complicated.) (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Do you think that God just decided to give Harry Potter fandom all the awesome wank at once? (Reply to this)(Thread)

	It's Pötterdämmerung come late? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Naw, that won't arrive until the final verdict of the case. You know the crazy will be beyond stupid then. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	wolfsamurai 2008-04-15 08:43 am UTC (link)
	That makes me feel so damned old. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	laerwen 2008-04-15 09:08 am UTC (link)
	Ditto. I turned 10 in 1990. Gourd almighty. x.x (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	bitca 2008-04-15 12:34 pm UTC (link)
	oh god. Now you've made ME feel even older. <-- turned 23 in 1990. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	laerwen 2008-04-15 05:16 pm UTC (link)
	Eheheheee... sorry. ^___^; But you are still NOT OLD. :P (Reply to this)(Parent)

	turned 23 in 1990. Right there with you. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	kaen 2008-04-15 09:10 am UTC (link)
	Same here. Dear god, people born in the nineties should not be legal adults. I still find it hard to believe that I've really and truly been an adult for years now most of the time. And she was just, like, twelve yesterday in my mind. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	issendai 2008-04-15 01:55 pm UTC (link)
	twitch Yes. YES. It still shocks me to realize that not only have I been out of college for longer than I was in, I've been out of grad school for longer than I was in grad school and college combined. Kids born in 1990 are, what, in onesies right now? twitch Emma's still twelve, as far as I'm concerned. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	kaen 2008-04-15 08:21 pm UTC (link)
	I still have occasional nightmares where I show up for the first day of a high school year without any idea what my classes are or where anything is. I can't have been out of school all together for pushing a decade, it makes no sense! woe (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	rosalita 2008-04-16 12:44 am UTC (link)
	Those dreams never go away. I've been out of school for, well, a lot longer than you have (A LOT LONGER), and I still have them. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	chibikaijuu 2008-04-17 08:20 pm UTC (link)
	My younger brother was born in 1990. The concept that he's not 12, and in fact will be 18 in August, is just not registering in my brain. Neither, really, is the idea that I'm not 17 anymore, but nearly 22. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	kylenne 2008-04-15 08:47 pm UTC (link)
	I have that reaction every day at work. I work for a technical school in financial aid and coming across kids born in 90 and 91 who are ready to do FAFSAs never stops being weird. I woke up and realized I'm damn near 30. When the fuck did that happen? (Reply to this)(Parent)

	hangingfire 2008-04-15 04:03 pm UTC (link)
	I got my damn driver's license in 1990. D: (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Potter Fandom just flinched. (Reply to this)

	scifantasy 2008-04-15 11:45 am UTC (link)
	You know, we keep assuming that there will be more Potterdammerung, but frankly, the seventh-book reaction was tame by comparison to the sixth. (At least, as far as I was aware). Maybe the wank has actually run out? (Reply to this)(Thread)

	and i feel fiiiiiiine pastri_archy 2008-04-15 01:19 pm UTC (link)
	It's a slow building thing, the end of ~~the world~~ fandom as we know it. You know like the Signs of the Times? These wanks are merely road signs leading up to when the nearest star is going supernova or the giant meteor is hurling towards orbit. Impact won't be for another hundred or so years but you feel the effects... (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: and i feel fiiiiiiine scifantasy 2008-04-15 01:22 pm UTC (link)
	Leonard Bernstein! ahem Anyway. shrug You might be right. I happen to think we dodged a bullet; HP fandom splintered after book 6, so we had something like Armageddon--the giant meteor missed us. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: and i feel fiiiiiiine pastri_archy 2008-04-15 04:27 pm UTC (link)
	Yes, and now the nearest star is using up all its fuel and we're hurtling towards possible wholesale fandom extinction. It's all about the new material in this fandom, man. Once that runs out, the centre will no longer hold together! :( Why do all the fandoms I love die early, never get traction or go supernova? Why can't I go out with stable fandoms? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: and i feel fiiiiiiine scifantasy 2008-04-15 04:29 pm UTC (link)
	Not all stars--fandoms--whatever--go nova, you know. Some become black holes or just flame out into dwarfs. Why can't I go out with stable fandoms? You know what they say--never go out with a fandom crazier than you are. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: and i feel fiiiiiiine pastri_archy 2008-04-15 04:36 pm UTC (link)
	I was YOUNG. I didn't know about teh crazy! I just thought it was sensitive and deep in ways my dried husk of a ex-fandom couldn't ever be again. :( I just wanted to be wanted! (Reply to this)(Parent)

	jetamors 2008-04-15 06:05 pm UTC (link)
	My theory is that originally it would have been the world-ending Wank To End All Wanks. But a rag-tag band of heroes fought against it and managed to split the Wank into several smaller wanks (Strikethrough, RDR, perhaps others which are to come) which were then sealed and scattered through time to be defeated separately. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	aristaea 2008-04-16 04:06 am UTC (link)
	I feel a warm glow thinking that in a hundred years, when they are remaking the Harry Potter movies and JKR's copyright has run out, HP fandom will still be wanking. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	issendai 2008-04-15 01:51 pm UTC (link)
	RUN, EMMA, RUN! (Reply to this)(Thread)

	YES. LEAVE AND DON'T COME BACK. DO LIKE IT DAN. SHAKE OFF ALL SEMBLEANCE OF POTTERNESS. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Oh damn! I'll have to toss this one out, then. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Oh god. o.o This isn't going to be like that girl from Lazytown on YTMND, is it? D: (Reply to this)(Parent)

	chash 2008-04-15 11:06 pm UTC (link)
	Ah, memories. I remember back when the first movie came out and all the guys in my free period were doing calculations to find out when she was legal. I'm glad all their waiting has finally paid off. (Reply to this)

	feenix 2008-04-16 05:18 am UTC (link)
	...or lots of wanking. >_> <_< (Reply to this)
