Entry tags:all hail the new troll king, at least no one's knotting, authors, bitter so bitter, books/authors, burn baby burn, but what are your thoughts on otps?, canon fodder, community: oh no they didn't, fan rage, fan theories, fandom: harry potter, harmonians, jkr doesn't know harry potter like i do, my dream wedding destroyed, person: jkr, potter fandom will not be outwanked!, she admitted it!, this is the wank that never ends, too many fucking tags, troll

These things really do go in cycles...
c/p'd from Mousie's hard work:

Emma Watson is guest editing a British magazine that comes out on Thursday.

In it, supposedly JK Rowling shares her regret for making a certain pairing canon over another one.

Nowadays she admits she got it wrong - she should have shipped Harry / Hermione.



ONTD jumps on the bandwagon first with predictable splooge. 2600+ comments and gong. Wank_report anonymouse captured their favorites:


Ron's an asshole! No, Hermione's abusive!

When people don't like ron it's because he's too poor and working class!
http://ohnotheydidnt.livejournal.com/85367803.html?thread=14993204731#t14993204731

Someone mentions Hermione/Draco, spawning a thread about whether Draco is an irredeemable racist. Bonus: passive-aggressive use of "gurl". I guess it's the new "sweetie"? http://ohnotheydidnt.livejournal.com/85367803.html?thread=14993142779#t14993142779

In response to the same Dramione thread, Godwin's Law is invoked! http://ohnotheydidnt.livejournal.com/85367803.html?thread=14993602043#t14993602043

I'm...not even sure what's happening in this thread. But I know I can't look away.
http://ohnotheydidnt.livejournal.com/85367803.html?thread=14993803259#t14993803259

That's just from the first few pages.

Meanwhile, on Tumblr...

YOU HAVE GOT TO BE FU****IN KIDDING ME JK ROWLING YOU REGRET THE THING I BASE MY LIFE ON LIKE JESUS CHRIST YOU MIGHT AS WELL TELL ME THAT I AM ADOPTED

Dear J. Rowling, If you ever dare to say that Ron wasn’t good enough for anybody I’d be so done.

Most accurate comment I've seen so far on ONTD: Somewhere, Steve Kloves is having an orgasm.

I just don't even know what she was thinking. Does she have that little understanding of what this would do to the fandom, or is she that much of a troll that she doesn't care?

Meanwhile it appears to be becoming a text post meme on Tumblr to have posts along the lines of "[Famous Dead Author] rises from the grave and says [Famous OTP] was mistake, [Famous non-OTP] should have happened instead," which is just beautiful to me.

Here are the ones I've seen and reblogged:

"Oh Romeo, No Romeo, it should have been Mercutio." - William Shakespeare in a recent interview with Us Weekly

In a new interview, Arthur Conan Doyle reveals that he regrets making John Watson and Mary Morstan marry. He also regrets bringing Sherlock Holmes back to life. Actually, he regrets everything. He hates Sherlock Holmes. He hates every single one of you. “Why can’t you leave me alone,” he says.

In other news: Jane Austen rises from her grave to claim that she regrets Mr Darcy and Elizabeth ending up together. “Mr Wickham was probs the way to go." Fandom is shocked and confused.

in a new, exclusive interview, god admits that adam/eve was mostly wish fufillment and adam/lilith should have been endgame

The only one I've seen is the Louisa May Alcott one. Are there more?

I saw one the other day that started off with Arthur Conan Doyle regretting some Sherlock ship and progressed to "actually Arthur Conan Doyle just regrets Sherlock. Stop talking to him about it, can't you all just leave him alone."

I haven't seen the Alcott one. I'm assuming it has to do saying that Laurie/Jo should have happened after all?

I thought I had seen one like that, too, but the only thing I can find in my reblogs is this screenshot a guy took of those jokes he made on twitter (which he then posted on his tumblr because social media?). My favorite is Aubrey/Maturin because *they were on a ship*, although personally I would be more invested in Hornblower/Bush for that particular joke...

“Arthur Conan Doyle confesses he would have made Sherlock/Watson canon if he didn’t hate everything about his work & buggery wasn’t outlawed”

OMG, ROFL!!! XD
