| | |  Harry Potter endorses vices
Two rather humorous articles have appeared today; one detailing some of the sexual innuendos in ' Half-Blood Prince'. Quote:
"These passages should be read with their context in mind. Yes, when they are read in isolation, they sound like sexual innuendoes."
-- VK Kartika of Penguin India, distributor of Harry Potter books in India
| And another detailing how Harry Potter promotes cruelty to animals. Quote: |
I mean, those books are just chock full of helpless innocent animals being transfigured into teacups and pincushions!
| Quote: |
Do people think that rats and ravens like being turned into water goblets? Did they even ask its permission? And half the time, those animals are poorly transfigured. What if you had to spend the rest of your life as a teacup with whiskers and a tail?
| Quote: |
And that's to say nothing about the poor animals used in potions and things. I mean students are crushing up beetles with mortars and pestles, slicing up grubs and caterpillars, and they are more worried about doing a poor job getting the slices even than the pain of the poor creature being sliced up! I bet they don't even use anesthetic!
| Quote: |
I mean, taking unicorn hairs and Phoenix feathers for wands? All right, sometimes they get the animal's permission, but other times they just pluck them and run!

There are innuendos. There were ones in OotP. But some of them are ridiculous and in context don't sound bad at all.
The second thing, the letter, is just too funny. | |

Lol, that is really very cute and funny. I suppose now that I think about it, those poor animals do go through a lot. I always feel bad for poor Erol who flew into the window in the Chamber of Secrets. Poor little owl. | |

*picks up Scabbers* Is it OK if I turn you into a goblet?
Only there's a problem; how are they supposed to answer you? Quote: |

Porn in Potter VI!!! LoL!! wow, they MUST have been looking for something that sounds dirty to actually give meaning to those. i didnt even notice them, let alone give another meaning. now that they pointed it out and isolated the quotes, then i kind of see it. still, it's hilarious!
and the animal things, im like that too. i used to say "aw, that's so mean" then laugh. i mean, Ron (poorly) turned Scabbers into a water goblet, but i dont think he was hurt. i dont think the animals are hurt when they tranfigure. besides, there's always mcgonagall (or Hermione) to turn them back. and the other ones for the potion making, coooome ooon... it's like saying we shouldn't kill chickens, or cows, or pigs to use for cooking anymore.
oh, and right below that article, "Batman and Robin gay?" | |
