taratemimaPeople using banners promising bloody death to people who spoil the new Harry Potter book? Check.
People documenting their time in line for books? Check.
People wanking over their inherent superiority for not waiting in line for the books? Check.
People hinting and trying to not get too spoilerly? Check.
Bracing for the shipper/pro-Slytherin wank? What, that doesn't happen already?
More proof that Harry/Ron/Hermione was meant to be? None really, but it's fun to say that.
Me? Meh. I only borrowed the fifth book so I could understand all the references to ships, and stood in line to surprise my youngest sister. I'd get into Pullman and Peake, but I have all these other books to finish. Great world-building, but I just could not get into the writing. Then again, I read tabloids (for the sociology! Really!)
