The weirdest darn review I've ever received.

This is the weirdest darn review I've ever received.

It's a review of the humour-fic An Irresistible Photo. The story is light-hearted and revolves around a photo taken of Harry/Ron. It's PG-13 and meant to be slightly silly.

"The story is quite Sexy but a little too short and I think you should've elaborated more on the feling of Ron and Harry during thier intercorse. Like maybe Ron felt dominate since he was doing the thrusing and harry felt hort of breath and mentally cheered Ron on. You know like that --" (and here they gave a link to a picture I didn't bother to open.)

Hello? I didn't show any 'intercorse.' The POV was a very distant third person omniscient, so it was apparent from the first paragraph that you won't be getting that sort of inner voice of who's dominant or what have you. The point was h-u-m-o-u-r. See the Title? It doesn't read 'Harry And Ron Get It On Ungh' for a reason. It's about the photo. Read a different story, say, on the Restricted Section, for more 'intercorse' details. Try 'Hagrid's Hut' or 'An Unexpected Guest' for all that.

The person who left it set up a separate FA account which they've used for nothing else besides this review.

I have a feeling they just wanted to pimp their photo. Which is why I never opened it.

That is a odd review for a humor fic.

No kidding!

I got another one just like, for of all things, Guy Talk (http://www.percyfest.muse-wanted.com/icarus_fiction/stories/guytalk.html), not an hour later.

Ugh. Not exactly the sort of review that makes you squeal. Or at least, not with pleasure...

What an odd review. But if I haven't said so before, this is a good opportunity to say that I think it's a very amusing story!

Ew! Glad you didn't open the picture.

Ew.

I know! It's really strange. There's something about this review that reminds me of those internet webcam porn sites, where the watcher tells the half-naked lady what to do? *pant, pant* "Now, *pant* writer, I want you to make Ron dominant and... show me his...."

Ew! Ew, ew, ew!


You know, you'd think that as a writer, I'd be able to come up with a phrasing more suitable to expressing how I feel over this, but no... "Ew" really sums it up nicely.

I'm horribly curious about the picture now.

[icarusancalion.livejournal.com]

I'm being disciplined. I'm mildly curious, but, not really.

I've heard of people setting up separate FA names just to flame or what-have-you. They're not flaming here, but the fact this account has only been used to review my stories and the name is very generic and uncreative just makes it seem a little 'off.' I dunno. It's strange. Maybe they created a separate ID to review slash.

They try so hard, but the spelling gives them away!

I do 't mi d poor spelli g (sorry, the letter ' ' is broke o my keyboard). But the separate accou t & off the poi t review makes me suspicious.

Hey,
no offense to Potter fans, but the movie plot sucked! however, some moments were so magical and capturing, it was totally covering up for the plot. I guess, it was made for kids. CG was awfully astonishing and grrrrrrrrreat!!!! I loved the flights, flights are cool!!!

[icarusancalion.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I confess part of my lack of enthusiasm (other than the fact that I still have four more essays to write tonight and had to meet with a group project all afternoon, gah, I'm so behind) part of my lack of enthusiasm for the IMAX movie was that I don't think too much of the first two Harry Potter movies.

They kind of made them, oh, Disney-like. The humor, cleverness, corruption and darkness was just flattened out. And the kids are just sickeningly sweet and heroic in the movies, it's ridiculous. The latest movie -- Prisoner of Azkeban -- is better, but still, like most movie versions, not as good as the books. The fun of J. K. Rowling is her little sarcastic swipes at modern society, and you can't bring that across in the movies. The Lord of the Rings was similarly decimated.
