*gulp* First time posting...
I've brought some HP/Icon Wank for you, which also incorporates Hitler, free speech, and brave anonymous folks leaving OMGWTF posts. In other words, a typical week in Potterland.

hlfchcknhlfsqrl (now there's a genetic code for ya...) posts an icon that just *begs* for wank by using a new image of Hermoine with her right hand up, and the caption "all hail Hitler!!" The fun begins as people are outraged, outraged I tell you that someone would post something of such poor taste, and request/demand its removal. Finally, someone gets the bright idea that perhaps the icon wasn't referring quite to Hitler himself, but to actor David Thewlis's rather Hitlerish look as the quite beloved Professor Lupin.

But it doesn't die. Since everyone basically calms down and gets over it after that, an anonymous troll shows up and bitches everyone out for being pervets and p(a)edophiles and distributing kiddie pr0n via LJ icons. Which, of course, has NOTHING to do with the initial post at all! *blink*

*coughandisooodidn'tpostaspooficontoamusemyselfcough*

Nothing huge, but fun when you get right down to it. What makes it remarkable is that the OP never once came back to defend herself or anything. Fascinating.

Ok everyone, how about we all just stop posting? Everyone has their beliefs, and this probably turn into a nasty name calling fight. They probably aren't going to remove the post, and people will get feelings hurt.

Poor, sweet, naive, buttahmellow. So young in the ways of the world.


Hey, Rambling Post Prize to Jade_Tokyo.

Blah Blah Blah Blah Being a Satirist myself I applaud the creater of this avatar and thank him for allowing such discourse maybe it will allow all of us to realize the differences of opinion and value it from now on. As voltaire once stated "I may not agree with what he has to say, but I will fight to the death for his right to say it." A Satire is just that, a harmless joke meant to point out degressions in our society. Yet in the end, I guess we are all just stardust."

And that's only the last third or so. (And we're all apparently a Neil Gaiman novel. I feel special. Do you feel special?)

Hey, Rambling Post Prize to Jade_Tokyo.

Word! "Women of the world owe the german state, without their imperialistic ideals Americanized democracy would be a useless dream."

Gotta love that free-association logic. What is she on, and why isn't she sharing? And then in her own LJ she complains: "Idiots don't even know how to spell their point much less make it."

Priceless!

I'd love to be a Neil Gaiman novel, but I'd rather be American Gods, or Coraline.

I really need another Neil icon. Where did my Babycakes one go?

I love the Dueling Dictionary wank:

"You don't even know how to spell 'pedophile'!"

"The OED says that 'paedophile' is the correct spelling!"

"The OED has fallen from grace!" (which gives me some really weird mental pictures...)

I love the fact that neither poster is willing to accept that both spellings are in fact correct, albeit on different sides of the Atlantic Ocean.

Personally, the comment about the Oxford English Dictionary falling from grace is my favourite part.

As for the rest of it... well, it's Godwin's Law in action. I had barely started reading the 'OMG I'M OFFENDED' comments and I was already looking for something else to talk about.

Oh, Good Lord.

Plus her arm's not nearly straight enough for it to be a Heil Hitler! They got kinda pissy on that sometimes. (The things you learn when assistant directing a play about the Holocaust, I tell you...)

You're right. Oddly enough, the first replyer's icon is much closer to a real one (minus wand, of course), which made me think at first that he had stolen the OP's. Hee.

To me, she looks more like Carrie Bradshaw trying to "hail" a taxi.

Oh my God, I KNOW that girl, hlfchcknhlfsqrl. She goes to my SCHOOL. Christ. She's wanky all on her own. That's bloody FRIGHTENING. And yet...I'm SO not surprised that she got reported here. It was inevitable. She thinks someone from Good Charlotte should have been Snape.
