The HMS STFU - Harmoanian Indoctrination: It Exists

| PSA: Snippets taken from the wank report.
Old Portkey had a forum, and on this forum they had a thread. And with a self-righteous bleat here and some srs bsns there, the Harmoanians had their say.
PJLikesAUfanfic: I even got little one trained to say 'ron is icky and yucky and mean to Hermione' and she is so adorable when she says it too. At school they play the HP movies *1 and 2 only since the movies 3 & 4 and up would scare little kids in her Special Needs class* sometimes and she stands up and points at the TV and says it in the middle of her class and her teachers smile and nod and give her a sticker. I guess they have read the books too and know which couple is the right choice rather than the 'easier' choice.
WHAT THE HELL IS THIS I DON'T EVEN-- *stares*
I think my face looks like that dog that's trying to comprehend the sheer level of stupid up close he's witnessing.
What kind of person uses their children to validate their world of batshit? I mean, that's just a million degrees of Fucking Creepy, in my book.
I don't even want to try and wade through the rest of it but I imagine some of you will be more than ready to take out your sporks and apply some deserved ego reduction to these folks.
Meanwhile, I'll be over here. *karate headdesks*
ETA:
I want to point out that this icon from ![[info]](http://www.journalfen.net/img/userinfo.gif) littleshebear is so very appropriate. | comments: Poke a delusional shipper     |
| Hm. Are the teachers really smiling and nodding at the kid and giving her a sticker, or are they smiling and nodding at the mother and backing away slowly?

| I love that they think THE TEACHERS ARE IN ON IT TOO. They're like a secret society, giving their children codewords to memorize so they can recognize others of their kind!
Except not really, because I'm fairly sure that their children's teachers are giving stickers to students for participating or answering questions correctly, not because THIS CHILD IS A WISE ONE WHO RECOGNIZES THAT HARRY/HERMIONE 4EVER. I want to imagine this poster at parent teacher conferences, giving them a conspiratory wink and mentioning that they're glad their child is being taught by one who recognizes the glorious hippogriff symbolism while the teacher stares blankly.
Also, are these people seriously so fixated with the romantic exploits of fictional teenage wizards that they have nothing better to talk about with their own kid? | | (Reply to this) (Thread) |

| Special Needs class? So not only she is indoctrinating her kid, she's indoctrinating her mentally challenged kid or something?
Holy cow. That takes the cake. | | (Reply to this) (Thread) |

| | WTF? you know when I first read "I even got the little one traind to say:'Ron is icky...' I thought s/he was talking about a parrot. What a creep. | | (Reply to this) (Thread) |
| | ... clearly I have not had enough rum to cope with this. *runs to kitchen* | | (Reply to this) (Thread) |
| And speaking of games, when little one and I play the movie 3 game (I say movie since they are not based on the books and feature characters that look like the actors from the movies) on the PC which is one that you have to play all 3 characters of the trio, little one gets mad when the game gives you no choice in which character to use. She wants to play as Hermione and when it is Hermione's turn she keeps trying to zap ron with the wand and gets mad when it doesn't work!
Really little one is sitting here trying to zap ron and yelling Diffendo! at the computer and is huffed when it doesn't blast ron off the screen!
And she hates it when it is ron's turn to do things. She doesn't like that at all and sometimes starts over again at the last saved spot to replay either Harry or Hermione or makes me play ron just to hurry through it to get to the next Harry or Hermione part. Smart girl.
That's my baby! Gotta love my baby. | | (Reply to this) (Thread) |
| When I see stories like this I can't help but regard them with the same level of trust I grant to the horror stories about kids told by CFers.
You know--the graphic, excruciatingly detailed tales of evil, woe, and unforgivable (albeit temporary) inconvenience due to some idiot "moo" and/or her misbegotten "crotchfruit"? The ones that almost always have Wal-Mart, fast food joints, family restaurants, or amusement parks as a setting? The ones where the bravely childfree narrator must ward off the threat someone else's unruly spawn poses to their action figure/My Little Pony/[insert toy here] collection?
Yeah, those stories. The ones where the kids are always just too rotten, their mothers just too stupid, the narrator just too clever, and the details just too convenient to be plausible--but the tale-spinner gets patted on the back for it anyway.
It's sort of like Rush Limbaugh's approach to reporting scandalous (but fake) news about the President--the story doesn't have to be true; it just has to feel true. Who needs truth when you have Truthiness?
Granted, I can see a Harmoanian being batshit enough to "train" her kid to parrot her opinions on the love lives of fictional teenagers--never mind that it's a very young and/or DD kid who doesn't really know what they're talking about, only that saying it makes Mommy happy. But I can also see how Mommy doesn't have any real-life friends because she's the kind of nutbar who gets all shrill over the kids' love lives in Harry Potter. So, like her little girl, she'll say things she knows will get her the attention and approval she craves from her online friends. It doesn't have to be true; it just has to feel true, after all. | | (Reply to this) (Thread) |

| I went to the "trial" of JKR in which we found her guilty of fraud and contributing to the delinquency of minors.
Because apparently these...
"Harry and Hermione are very platonic friends. But I won't answer for anyone else. Nudge, nudge, wink, wink."
"Yes, something's "going on," but Ron doesn't realize it yet. Typical boy."
[surprised] "Harry and Hermione! Do you think so?"
Are all stunning examples of fraud! | | (Reply to this) (Thread) |
| When my niece was younger, she liked to play Harry Potter with her dolls, and my sister and I told her that Harry and Ginny were going to get married and that Ron and Hermione would too. Of course, we just told her the truth and weren't attempting to indoctrinate her into the cult of OBHWF.
What are these parents going to tell their children when they get old enough to read the books and finished watching the movies, and Hermione doesn't end up with Harry? | | (Reply to this) (Thread) |
| Considering the source (PJlikesaufanfic) I am not surprised at all. She is quite serious about her Ron hate, and more than once she has proposed trying to find ways for Harmonians to get their money back for HBP and DH.
Yeah. | | (Reply to this) (Thread) |
| First off, she "trained" the girl??? To me that is more disturbing then saying she maybe convinced the child to her way of thinking.
Second, I still want to know how is Ron/Hermione the easy choice. Why is it easier then Harry/Hermione? Why would Harry/Hermione be the more difficult choice?
Could it be because say Hermione is in with love/attracted to Ron and Harry is in with/attracted to Ginny? And that for them to be together for the good of wizarding world (for whatever batshit one would care to come up with) both Harry and Hermione would have give the person that is really better suited for them?

Um... wow. That really is a whole new level of batshit right there.
I've been lurking here for a while & read a lot of Harmoanian batshit, but I still fail to understand why this is so important to them, why they find it necessary to indoctrinate their kids in Harmoanism. It's really frightening.
Do they need to be validated so badly that their entire sense of self-worth hinged upon 2 fictional teenagers getting together in a book that's not even about romance? Because if that is the case they are sad, sad individuals.

| This reminds me of a few stories I've seen over Harmoanian wank throughout the years.
I remember one woman (who I'm sure is highlighted in the archives as a batshit H/Hr'er) who FINALLY got her husband to read HP after years of trying. Once he was done, she asked him his thoughts of Harry/Hermione not getting together; his response was something like, "I didn't see it happening. It reminds me of a friendship I had in college with this girl" and then proceeded to add that he figured it would be Ron and Hermione.
SHE WAS CRUSHED. She made a post about how she couldn't believe it because she thought their marriage was all but based on H/Hr's ~*tru luv*~ principles, and now, A SHAM!
Very funny. :) I wonder if they got a divorce.
Not to mention, there was that one H/Hr guy who taught a night class or something on HP and penalized people who mention R/Hr in their essays or stuf | | (Reply to this) (Thread) |

| Needless to say after he read book 6, he didn't spend any more money on HP stuff at all and that meant the last things we bought were those damned book 6s he pre-paid in advance ordering before they got to book stores and he feels like we got really ripped off.
Ok, I just finished re-reading book 6 (on to book 7, woot) and I don't get why so many people thought it was the devil's asshole because characters a and b didn't boink. Nevermind the history we get to learn of Voldemort, Harry's budding friendship with Dumbledore, the amazing final act (I still cried), nope, just fuck it all because one insignificant part didn't go a certain way.
These people must live complicated lives if a minor thing like shipping ruins something for them. Get a new job that pays very well and is incredibly satisfying? Fuck it, my boss is a Heron, I can't work for that asshole! | | (Reply to this) (Thread) |
| OK, besides the incredibly sick and wrongness of indoctrinating a child who hasn't even read the books into your ship...
...what is all this "R/Hr is easy" talk? Aren't Harmonians always on about how Ron is "abusive" and "doesn't respect Hermione's intelligence" and "wants Saint Hermione barefoot and pregnant?" How, by their logic, is that the "easy" route?
Geez, Harmonians, if you're going to be totally and completely insane, at least be consistent. | | (Reply to this) (Thread) |

| I'd laugh if the kid grows up to love Ron/Hermione. Maybe in her rebellious teenaged years.
I can see it now:
"Mom, it's my wedding day. Aren't you coming?"
"ARE YOU STILL A RON/HERMIONE FAN?"
"Yes."
"THEN HAVE A NICE LIFE." | | (Reply to this) (Thread) |
| I am trying to be fair... I love Ron, I read the books to my children and we stop and squee when there is something Ron/Hermione...
...but that's... stuff that is actually there... we see the words and everything... | | (Reply to this) (Thread) |
| You know, I'd really like to see a post or thread dedicated to former H/Hr batshits who have come around and realized that they were acting ridiculous. I'm not asking them to LIKE the dreaded OBHWF, but for one to simply admit, "Yeah, I see it now..." o
There has to some out there. One...?

| Reminds me of that bit in Horrible Histories where a Brit says he's trained his dog to cock his leg every time he hears the word "Hitler".
