I got spoiled by a spammish posting on an unrelated lj community. Of course, I didn't read the prior book because it was too heavy, so I wasn't overly worked-up, but I can see being PISSED.
Oh, wow. This place looks great. Oh, I feel like a witch in a magic shop.

Some people seem to be under the impression that you put the spoiler IN the warning.
So they do stuff like "Spoiler!! Joyce dies!!!"

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
I spoiled myself by reading the LJ read-and-posts. I haven't read the last several books anyway, so it was a fun way to ride in the wake of the Event of it.
Yup. I gave up after GoF, but I do like watching the fandom reaction.
Gronk. It cooled down just a bit here, and my mother and I are watching Eddie Izzard. Earlier, I had dinner with a bunch of lovely people at my favorite Japanese restaurant. Yum.

Did we know that Sandra Bullock apparently married Jesse James?
Oh, and in mother news, mine said I have a bunion! I was like, Oh no you didn't! But I guess I do. It doesn't hurt or anything, but still -- weird. Aren't bunions for sketchy old ladies??

Oh, Paul=Plei's DH. I think I even knew that; I was too quick in my skimming.
I'm just startng HP6 now. My problem is that I've forgotten most of what's happened up to this point. But I'm sure I'll manage.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
In two days, the book has made at least $100 million in sales.

I would post something here about how the Rowlings machine was doing some pretty draconian things to suppress online distribution of the meme, but I love the books and it would be me starting yet another argument where I am not sure of my position.
