I was halfway through a whingey entry, waxing emotive about being sick (again, thanks for failing at your job, immune system), and loneliness, and how much I miss fandom and the way it was when I first joined - when there was a sense of community and people wanted to discuss things and make new friends, instead of hanging out anonymously and bitching and whining unnecessarily; and then I was like, NO, KYLIE. Not tonight. Tonight we dine in lulz.
So I give you the thing that never fails to make me cry with laughter - HP Summary Executions: Greatest Hits. Basically, the best (read: worst) summaries people have come up with for their Harry Potter fanfiction.
To entice you:
Señor Draco.
Señor Draco.
Señor Draco.
Other slices of brilliance to look forward to (just the keywords, I don't want to spoil you too much, after all): Dumbledore fucks no Americans!, back virginity, wereflamingoes, and MIND BOOGLEING SUPENUSE!!!
Enjoy, guys!
PS.
wholly_crepe, your WIP has comforted me immeasurably these last few days. Jsyk. ♥
So I give you the thing that never fails to make me cry with laughter - HP Summary Executions: Greatest Hits. Basically, the best (read: worst) summaries people have come up with for their Harry Potter fanfiction.
To entice you:
A story of pain and sorrow, not intented for comfort or laughter...a story that remains untold, on of abuse and blood...telling of a shattered girl who learned to twist a heart of stone into one of warm gold. This is not a story for the faint of heart, nor the happy in spirit. But for those who are able to understand what it means to be hurt...to watch as a girl's spirit is shattered like glass upon concrete. Watch as she melts the young master's heart of ice, and watch as she helps him heal. She has no name, but his...is Señor Draco.
Señor Draco.
Señor Draco.
Señor Draco.

Date: 2011-01-06 07:04 pm (UTC)my school has a student club which runs an event one weekend in the fall where students can teach classes in anything they want (really anything, as long as it won't get us sued) and middle- and high-school kids come from all over to take the classes. A couple years ago, I taught "A Field Guide to Fanfiction" with a couple friends, just for a laugh. We spent most of the class on signs of really bad fanfiction and how to avoid the obvious pitfalls but the BEST part of the class was finding a fanfiction excerpt to use as our class description in the catalogue. We spent HOURS reading really horrible Harry Potter fanfic and laughing outrageously, and we almost used a smutty bit of Harry/Ron fic until we realized when we ***'d out any 'naughty' words it looked even worse, and if we ***'d out a few totally innocent words it looked REALLY indecent which, while hilarious, wouldn't fly with the admins. In the end we found some horrible Ginny/Harry fic where someone got pregnant and spoke in text-speak.
TL;DR: THESE ARE HILARIOUS, THANKS FOR THE LINK

Date: 2011-01-07 02:02 am (UTC)Checking out the summary executions post, and it is full of LOL.
- A girl so mysterious, even Draco Malfoy & Harry Potter themselves got hooked up.
- Adventurous fic, full of my own unique humor and situations that even Rowling would be proud to have created.
Hahahahaha. Takes me back to the early days when I still trudged through ff.net for stories.
BadGood times.Hope you feel better soon! Sending some eyesex your way to aid in the recovery:
