I agree that it sounds like angsty teens who were probably already having issues dealing with reality.
You also have to remember the biased source. I could write a lovely story about that too  |
Oh, I completely agree!

Perhaps LM should spend less time and energy bringing absolutely baseless lawsuits and more time and energy parenting. Parenting is not the library's job.

I bet she just got a "T" on her O.W.L.S. and now she wants revenge. 
Speaking of that, I wonder, since Hermione started S.P.E.W., will she start an organization for the inhumane treatment of trolls, since the very basis of the wizarding examination grading scale makes fun of them? She probably started to, then remembered that one tried to kill her.

ha ha, I'm not sure even Hermione could love trolls.
I think the social dynamics of the house elves is very interesting. Dobby seems to be a bit of a sport in that he's the only one who WANTED freedom. Now maybe that's just because his masters were the Malfoys, but which is worse, the "willing" indentured servitude of the house elves, or Hermione's insistence that she knows better than they do and trying to trick them into freedom (with the hiding of clothing)?
And they say you can't learn anything from Harry Potter...

Which is worse: watching people be degraded and enslaved in third world countries or us busting in, acting like we know better than them and trying to "free" them against their will?
Dun-dun-DUUUN!

Hey now, that's not quite what I said. The other house elves want nothing to do with Dobby. Take Winky, she's absolutely distraught over her dismissal from the Crouches. (Still!)
I do think that to fight the Dark Lord and the Death Eaters, the other magical creatures are going to be very important. All of the "bad" guys mistreat them, call them half-breeds (Firenze for example) and Dobby and Firenze are both going against their own kind's "ways" to work with the good wizards. Dobby said that Harry Potter was very important to the house elves, because "before" they were treated so much worse... just a thought.

Has anyone discussed Harry being the last Horucrux? We already know that Voldemort left a little part of himself behind w/Harry, hense the scar. I don't know if this has already been discussed...I kinda skim through the thread.

ha ha, yeah read the past few pages. I think we mostly agreed that he wasn't (That was my original position, so I may be biased). It is certainly still a possibility. I just don't think it's likely.

ha ha...yes! I was thinking that too. Jump back to page 47....we went off on that "is the scar a horcrux" tangent for a lil' bit...
FWIW: after greekchatting with all these smart cookies who remember more than I do, I do NOT believe that the scar is a horcrux.
