The HMS STFU - DH 1 continues to bring Harmonian wank to the yard
|
| The comments are hilarious. R/Hr shippers are totally biased, but Harmony shippers are simply objective observers who recognize the undeniable fact that Harry/Hermione is the superior ship!
(all of you platonic-pushers do realize that Hermione and Ron were platonic too, right? They didn't jump into the sack when they were 11)
LOL way to misunderstand the meaning of platonic. The word refers to the feelings they have for each other-- romantic vs. non-romantic feelings. Two people with romantic feelings for each other do not have a platonic relationship. That doesn't change simply because they haven't had sex with each other. | | (Reply to this) (Thread) |
| If your "true love" is not your best friend, than they are not your true love.
So Harry's true love was Ron. I knew it all along.
To get srsbzns for a second: I hate the term "true love". I hate even more when people try to inform others what the proper form of love is. Do not tell other people that what they feel isn't real because it doesn't fit your approved template, you obnoxious little trogg. | | (Reply to this) (Thread) |
| | Oh lord, I've heard the Southern Baptist preacher at my church make exactly that argument. I swear, between the obsession over the purity of their relationship and their bizarre beliefs about the way relationships work, Harmonians are becoming more and more like religious fundamentalists every day. | | (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread) |

| The fact that they only post in Harmonian forums disallows any admittance of different opinions. They are constantly surrounded by Harmonian supporters. They keep egging each other on and they seam to constantly want to outdo each other in their love for their favourit ship and they are getting more and more loosing touch with the rest of the fandom, the same with the Snapefen. and I believe that in real life one can observe a similar effect. If one is exposed to only one fundemental sets of values, there is a tendency to only think of life in terms of black and white. Republicans and Democrats, Right and Wrong, Conservative and Liberal. I used to think that way myself, but I have since mellowed out a bit.
Sorry for the Tldr.
Ps: I am sorry if I have created a political straw man I am sorry

| Trying to even say who within the Trio is 'best friends' with another is kind of pointless to start with. The point is that they're a Trio and are much less effective no matter who gets removed. Hermione brings the brains, Harry brings the brawn* and Ron brings the cheerful disposition**.
*magical brawn does not require actual muscle.
**disposition may not actually be cheerful. | | (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread) |
| Then so are Harry and Hermione and Ron and Harry and Ginny and Hermione.
What does "best friends" even mean anyway? I don't see a use for the term. There are friends you share different things and experiences with -- but "best"? She's my bestest friend so I will only sit next to her in class! I would hope by the time people marry and pop out sprogs, they'd outgrow this mentality. | | (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread) |

| | Speaking as a crazy Disneyphile hopeless romantic, IAWTC so so much. It ESPECIALLY pisses me off when people don't think you can have more than One True Love. Likes it's totally impossible to fall in love with more than one person. | | (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread) |
| | Best monologue on True Love I ever heard in Ever After where Prince Henry pulls apart the idea of One And Only One True Love. | | (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread) |
| | I agree with Monica on "Friends": I don't believe in soul mates, I believe in compatible people who work hard on their relationships. (Even though I do love that First Love is Forever trope in fiction, LOL.) | | (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread) |

| VIVA LA GREEN EYED WEASEL!
Back in the old days of the shipping wars, I used to make this argument all the time against the Harmonians. For every "moment" they come up with, there was usually more with Ron and Harry.
Now I love Ron/Harry fic, so I've meta'd myself. | | (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread) |
| | So she had to doll herself up for Harry to notice she was pretty, while Ron was attracted to her regardless. Clearly Harry was destined to be with her! | | (Reply to this) (Thread) |

| | Lest ye forget, that clearly proves that Harry's attraction to her is pure and transcends the physical. Clearly. | | (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread) |
| | I've always found it kinda funny how many Harmonian arguments can be be used to support Ron/Harry - and in most cases, support it even better. | | (Reply to this) (Thread) |

| Someone should write a parody - take arguments and situations Harmonian's use and use them to show why Ron and Harry is obviously the OTP! :)

| Especially the "lack of physical attraction means a relationship is superior" part.
This gets to me. Why do they think lack of lust is a positive thing in a romantic, sexual relationship? Why do they hate the erotic so much? Urgh. | | (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread) |
| Isn't this the same movie blog that did the uber wankbait thing about Twilight vs. HP? That plus this = MASSIVE attention whoring.
And in the spirit of Move along; nothing to see here I want to reply to the article with a simple:
Could Hermione have ended up with Harry? Yes. Did she? No. | | (Reply to this) (Thread) |
| Hermione could have ended up with Neville.
She could have ended up with Dumbledore.
...with Snape.
...with Ginny.
...with Hagrid.
...with Voldemort.
...with the Giant Squid.
But the point is, SHE DIDN'T. She ended up with Ron. There is NO ARGUMENT OR DISCUSSION. You can coulda, woulda, shoulda this to death, but the end game will NEVER change. | | (Reply to this) (Thread) |

| Well, if we're talking about best friends, I for one ship Draco/Goyle. Seriously, you guys, Goyle took Polyjuice potion for him for months and Draco stayed behind in a fiery inferno rather than let go of Goyle *___*

| Ok, the article ticked me off so much that I ranted about all the reasons it ticked me off. It's a little long and there are fourteen reasons.

| | What is with the constant negative comparisons of Ron to Harry? Ron and Harry are a great deal alike, particularly intellectually. They both make decent grades (with some help from Hermione) but aren't exactly fascinated by school. Harry appears to be more thoughtful - but only because Ron has the luxury of not having to constantly think about who or what may be springing up to kill him/his friends and/or ruin his life. Harry doesn't exactly have a better emotional IQ than Ron, either. They are both at their core very ordinary (pre)teenage boys, which is one of the reasons that they are such good friends. Ron's the first person to ever really treat Harry just as a boy, on equal terms - yeah, he wants to see Harry's scar, but it's because scars are cool, not because Harry's makes him special, and that makes Ron special by association. (Notice that while most of Ron's insecurities revolve around not being special enough to be noticed, he never uses his connection with Harry for any personal gain, even though being the best friend of The Boy Who Lived could easily win you fame, if not fortune.) Ron's also in many ways the braver of the two - he is genuinely scared and has a much better conception of what the real risks they're taking are, at least early on, but he goes anyway. Harry has a tendency to sort of block out how terrifying everything should really be and just kind of do it, and luck his way into not dying basically until HBP. | | (Reply to this) (Thread) |

| | With this in mind, I wonder if the locket horcrux scene was at least partly meta against Ron-bashing in the shipping wars. I think Voldemort's taunts to Ron were at one point a part of the argument in the shipping wars "why would Hermione pick Ron when she could have Harry" - whereas Hermione doesn't give a damn who's more famous or powerful or potentially influential. | | (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread) |

I don't think you are either. | | (Reply to this) (Thread) |
