HogwartsHouses Wank!
I've been watching this one grow all day, and it's blossomed into something of a mini-wank. (Also, this is my first post, eheh. Be gentle!)

As many of you know, Hogwarts Houses is a community where one can fill out an application, and be sorted into House by fellow 'students'.

It all starts when slytherprincess submits an application, complete with shoddy grammar and something of an attitude problem.

Most people suck it up and sort the princess without too many insults, until satonthefence chimes in and declares the OP a muggle. Things go completely downhill from there: soon enough, someone with common sense comes around to lay the smackdown; seeing as satonthefence apparently had no reason for such harsh treatment towards the OP.

The thread went quiet for a while until, as was bound to happen, yousuckcrabs, an obvious troll comes wandering in to call people various colourful metaphors.

Finally, to top off the wank, the OP shows up and defends herself.

I know I'm the last person who should be bitching about typos but why can no one on-line spell 'whining'?

It only has one 'g' people.

I'll go sit in the corner now.

On the rare occasions that I use the phrase "whinging moron" I use that word, but that's because...well, it's a phrase. Otherwise, unless one regularly speaks British English, one should be advised against using it.

There is a difference between whining and whinging.

Two different words, therefore not a typo.

I get very, very irritated about this, particularly as it pops up again and again and again in the Harry Potter fandom.

Whinging is a perfectly acceptable British word, and therefore is entirely appropriate when used either in fanfiction set in a British fandom or by British people (and Australians, come to that, since it's also used in Australia - whinging Pom, anyone?) in any context outside of fic.

Whinging is complaining, moaning, twisting (no, not the dance) and generally behaving like a Mary Sue author protesting an inclusion in [info]deleterious or your average five year old. Whining is what dogs do and wining is what someone does prior to trying to get you into the sack.

Now... if the someone was trying to infer that the OP was trying to get the entire community into the sack by judicious application of alcohol - that would bring teh funneh ::g::

This is a thing of beauty and joy forever.

Not only is the OP a complete moron (Y sHulD i KaR wHuT haPPiNz in dE wURlD?!11) but the mod chime in with what should surely become a HPwank legend:

In case you missed it ((which indeed, it seems you have)) a mod posted a clarification on when it is and is not OK to muggle someone. The muggle vote is to be used when and ONLY when you're positive beyond a shadow of a doubt that someone has FAKED THEIR ANSWERS.

Oh GOD, not .... THE MUGGLE VOTE! ((cries in fear))

Dear HP Fen,
We're ALL fucking muggles because, you see, there is actually NO Hogwarts/wizards/Harry Potter. I know, I'm just a bitter, bitter grinch with no imagination or poetry in my SOUL! But, reality check!
Sincerely,
fairy_tale_echo

BWAH.

This is pikacharma. One of the ones from that thread.

I am laughing my ass off here, but I just had to post a quick correction. I'm not a mod. I was linking to a post by a mod, for the benefit of some idiot wanker who didn't seem to understand what a muggle vote meant. But I am not, myself, a mod. Though I was indeed laying the smack down. ^_~

Oh, and whoever yousuckcrabs is...you fucking rock my world. LMAO @ the Voldie fudgepacker comment. Sooo bad...but such a hilarious visual.

Cheers!

From the application:
Would you ever use an Unforgivable Curse for any reason? You betcha. I'd use them more often than politicians looking for excuses.

Where did you find out about us?
Fandom_wank

I think those two responses alone should help towards the Death Eater Spawn vote.

i dont know. if you know this stuff you must want to be a politician or something...

A student applying for college!

it would have to be Mcgonagal and Lupin, McGonagall because she is the motherly figure at Hogwarts. She is also fair and doesnt have favoritism towards her house. She is the person i would go to if i felt home sick.

::Cough::SheputHarryontheQuiddictchteamwhenhewasafirstyear::Cough:: What? I didn't say anything.

Lupin because he is like the old jokester.

Huh?

it would have to be Voldormort and and Lucius Malfoy. Voldormort because he reminds me of hitler except hes the wizard hitler...i mean hes a halfblood but wants to kill all of them? like wtf? hes gay and stupid. needs a new hobby because obssessing over Potter isnt healthy and you know Potter is going to kill him one day.

Voldemort: He's like Hitler, in a way! Only gay a wizard.

There is no fandom more reliable for wank than Harry Potter. Like Old Faithful, except that the Wank Rangers wear tiny man-shorts and big foam fingers.

"I find you to be very... gay? Would that be a good word. No, it never is. Yes, I did read your excuses on using it but that doesn't make me forgive you for it. As a LESBIAN IN HIGH SCHOOL, hearing fellow classmates use MY SEXUAL ORIENTATION as a NEGATIVE WORD and INSULT hurts me. And when I saw that, it honestly hurt my feelings. I also find you ignorant and shallow. Just my thoughts."

Am I the only one who wants to say, in response to the comment -
"Dude, you are so gay!"

I thought I'd add this as it's on topic, but not really an entry in its own right. These people can't even flame adequately. Kind of tragic, for a self proclaimed elite.

Hey look! It's an 31337 HP sorting community! (http://www.livejournal.com/community/sorting_elite/104804.html?page=1#comments)

The fun starts when someone posts a (now edited out) application to join an "elite" sorting community. Because of course, nothing says elite like a bunch of assorted misfits flexing their anxieties about their profound social inadequacies votes. I mean, only genii want to get into a series of linked LJ where you can pretend to be a wizard in a boardingschool that exists only in a children's book. Hoo yeah.

At first things progress ordinarily and civilly. But lo! Drama is nigh. dark accusations begin to bubble about Things Coming To Light In The Slytherin Common Room. (http://www.livejournal.com/community/sorting_elite/104804.html?thread=3294308#t3294308)

It appears that OMGWTF the applicant applied before under a different username!!11!!!

"You can't pull one over on me! Even though you, uh, did...." (http://www.livejournal.com/community/sorting_elite/104804.html?thread=3297124#t3297124)

Things get really tetchy when a member tartly states "you ignored an unwritten rule." Applicant points out (not unreasonably) that as she isn't a member, how could she be expected to know it? Then the splooge really begins to fly, with the glorious comment that Than you should have EXPLAINED this first. Sorry. Rules are RULES. We are elite and we make no exception.s (http://www.livejournal.com/community/sorting_elite/104804.html?thread=3315812#t3315812) Because as everyone knows, using English correctly is a thing for the plebian hordes, Teh Elite need not trouble themselves.

It's a big squidgy three-comment-pageful mess of wannabe selfimportance and general wankerdom. I wonder if they know how idiotic they look?
