We're discussing our favorite part of the News Section for this week's PC <Sofie> i liked that Sue mentioned the Q's bday party even though it was only yesterday <KimmyBlair> i was about to say that Sofie! <magicmeg8> Haha. I was wondering about that as well. <TheGuruOfSloth> it's interesting to hear John try to be a little more serious without Melissa around to annoy tongue <LJ> *sniff* Jo just started <andythehouseelf> Channel 4 for all in the UK smile (sorry to disrupt the chat) <mlwl> you know, I think my LEAST favorite thing was that the Dahl granddaughter took credit away from Jo (even though I LOVE Roald DAhl) <Sofie> she was so busy posting all the pics and clips i though they wouldnt have to record for PC <danae24> Yes, it's kind of weird to see Serious John and Funny John all at the same time..... <Sofie> lol yes, even his voice sounded weird smile <KimmyBlair> yeah *** RuneThomas has quit [Bye] <Sofie> i mean John's *** magicmeg8 has quit [Bye] *** magicmeg8 has joined #lounge <danae24> but I loved how Sue was laughing all thru the news disscusion <magicmeg8> I thought the talk concerning the hair was funny as well, Wizardmom <Sofie> yes she usually does biggrin <danae24> her laugh is really contagious!! <KimmyBlair> i did too! <TheGuruOfSloth> yeah, i'm hearing the hair stuff now biggrin <KimmyBlair> that was somthing that really was weird <melodywenn> You know, I liked the talk about the hair, because when I saw the clip from the bday party, the hair was the first thing I noticed! <magicmeg8> Haha <Wizardmom> me too <KimmyBlair> short haired harry was so weird <melodywenn> I was glad to know I'm not the only one. <KimmyBlair> as much as I dislike long haired harry <magicmeg8> I still haven't seen it <Sofie> its funny zo read all those comments on Leaky's main page too *** mlwl has quit [Bye] <Wizardmom> It's funny too that there's a topic on the Lounge too <danae24> yes, Harry looked weirder than Ron with short hair...... <Sofie> the H*** thread? <Theoriser> no, long haired harry was good! <Sofie> Rupert looked do cute and so did Matt! [/fangirl] <Theoriser> short haired harry looks weird <magicmeg8> Got to go. Have a great chat, guys! *** mollywobbles23 has joined #lounge *** magicmeg8 has quit [Bye] <Wizardmom> I think short hair Harry will be okay, as long as it's messy <danae24> it looks weird because Jo has always described Harry as a boy with rather messy hair, and seeing Dan all combed and all.............. it's freaky........ <melodywenn> Exactly, danae <Wizardmom> He does look older though <melodywenn> It just doesn't seem very Harry-ish! <Theoriser> no, that's what I think *** Lizzieangel90 has joined #lounge <danae24> And I miss Hermione with bushy hair too............ <Wizardmom> But I did like Rupert's shorter hair better, it suits him better *** mka has joined #lounge <Sofie> bye meg! *** Sofie has quit [Bye] <danae24> I agree on that wizardmom <mollywobbles23> Ditto, wizardmom *** Sofie has joined #lounge *** mugglebornkat has quit [Bye] <Wizardmom> It's funny that there was some great news this week, especially Jo's Honorary Degree, and we're talking hair..lol <mollywobbles23> hehe *** Sofie has quit [Bye] *** mugglebornkat has joined #lounge <KimmyBlair> see that's what matters to the fans! <KimmyBlair> we want to stay as true to the books as possible <mollywobbles23> We have our priorities <Wizardmom> hehe...exactly <KimmyBlair> so small details like hair, eye color, and even dress color matter <KimmyBlair> gratned I am thrilled for Jo! <danae24> yes, they do......... <Lizzieangel90> hahaha too true kimmy <KimmyBlair> I know when I found out Hermione was in Pink dress robes for GOF I was a tad bit upset! <danae24> and was that owl Hedwig??? I had my doubts because Harry didnt recognise the owl at first.......... <Theoriser> I still haven't watched the clip, I keep forgetting! <mollywobbles23> Did anyone get to watch the entire thing? <melodywenn> Yeah, I watched it through once <Theoriser> I have it recorded, so I will when the football's off <Wizardmom> I've only seen the clip, I'd love to see the whole thing *** Sofie has joined #lounge <mollywobbles23> Yeah, me too, wizardmom <danae24> I only watched the clip.... <Sofie> finally i got through *** wulung has quit [Bye] <melodywenn> It was cute. A little silly, but about what you'd expect, given the scenario. <danae24> and I loved that they mentioned Peeves!!! <Wizardmom> me too <Sofie> yes i was so happy! <Sofie> who do you think wrote the script? <melodywenn> Good question <KimmyBlair> ohh good question sofie <Sofie> that goldenberg guy? <Wizardmom> <<<<<<is picturing Voldemort with a handbag <mollywobbles23> That would be neat if he did, Sofie <danae24> I'm thinking Kloves..... <Sofie> since they mentioned Peeves it couldnt be kloves *** wulung has joined #lounge <danae24> one of those invented scenes he did.......... <mollywobbles23> lol <Sofie> it couldnt have been Jo, we would know that... [17:37] <Theoriser> it must've been goldenburg [17:37] <Theoriser> who else? [17:37] <danae24> i really doubt Jo would write it........... it wasnt too Joish........... [17:37] <KimmyBlair> tlak to you later! [17:37] *** KimmyBlair has quit [Bye] [17:37] <LJ> bye [17:37] *** mka has quit [Bye] [17:37] <Sofie> i hate that they said "akkio" again [17:38] *** mka has joined #lounge [17:38] <TheGuruOfSloth> lol - i just realized that in pottercast world, when John says "I heard that..." means, "I just decided to make this up..." [17:38] <mugglebornkat> lol [17:38] <Wizardmom> LOL [17:38] <danae24> Yes, it makes you go and talk to the director and tell him "it's Accio not Akkio!!!!!!!" [17:38] <melodywenn> Yup, that's exactly what that means! lol [17:38] <Sofie> like when he is skyping with Jo and emma [17:39] <Lizzieangel90> byebye everyone..i've got to go [17:39] <TheGuruOfSloth> just heard the thing about JKR getting her honorary degree on an old-looking scroll tongue [17:39] *** Lizzieangel90 has quit [Bye] [17:39] <Sofie> lol danae, exactly [17:39] <Theoriser> I always said it akkio [17:39] <melodywenn> It means, "I heard these thoughts inside my own head." [17:39] <TheGuruOfSloth> haha, could be biggrin [17:40] <Theoriser> in the game they say is really weirdly [17:40] <danae24> I guess someone should send to them that pronunciation guide they have over at the Scholastic site............ [17:40] <LJ> Most British people say Akkio [17:40] <Sofie> when i first heard it on one of the early revealed GoF scenes i was so mad its ACCIO! [17:40] <Estrella> I always prounouced it akkio [17:40] <Estrella> like access [17:40] <TheGuruOfSloth> wait... [17:40] <danae24> And because I mainly speak spanish, I have always read Accio....... so when they said Akkio, I was so mad......... [17:41] <Sofie> i always said accio not akkio [17:41] <Sofie> it sound weird [17:41] <Sofie> *s [17:41] <danae24> I agree Sofie [17:41] <LJ> well, I get mad when people say assio - I say it Akkio [17:42] <Sofie> well, one more think ppl have to ask Jo in NY smile [17:42] <mka> smile [17:42] <danae24> Yes!! [17:42] <Sofie> *thing, i cant type [17:43] <mka> oops sorry I'm still getting the hang of this system [17:43] <LJ> OK, so moving on - what did you guys think of the Canon Conundrums? [17:43] <danae24> but I'm guessing it's akkio, otherwise Jo would have corrected Newell on GOF........... [17:43] <danae24> what canon conundrums??? [17:43] <Wizardmom> what CC, there was none [17:43] <Theoriser> was there a canon conundrum this time? [17:43] *** fawkes28 has joined #lounge [17:43] <LJ> sorry, ModCast [17:43] <LJ> haha [17:43] <Theoriser> lol [17:43] <Wizardmom> lol [17:43] <Sofie> it was great [17:44] <Theoriser> I liked the topic they chose [17:44] <danae24> The Modcast was great!!!! I loved it!! [17:44] <Wizardmom> Modcast was great, interesting topic [17:44] <Sofie> yeah, interesting topic [17:44] <mollywobbles23> When I used to say it, it sounded more like "achio" which is every close to "achoo." I guess akkio is an improvement. [17:44] <danae24> made me think about horcruxes in a whole other way [17:44] <Theoriser> I liked the half-life idea! [17:44] <Sofie> yes and the paralel with the unicorn blood [17:44] <melodywenn> I did too! [17:44] <mollywobbles23> I liked the half-life idea too. [17:45] <Sofie> but i think its 1/7th life in Voldy's case [17:45] *** fawkes28 has quit [Bye] [17:45] <danae24> And the point that Jason had, the way the body form changes........... [17:45] <TheGuruOfSloth> hehe, it just amused me to hear Lorie try to pull in something from physics laugh [17:45] <Wizardmom> I liked what someone posted earlier about how it's interesting how less human Tom has become [17:45] <mollywobbles23> I don't know if it's true though. If it was, then the last horcrux would have 1/64th of Voldemort's soul. I really have latched onto the diluted soul theory. [17:45] <danae24> Yes, but I think that is more about evil taking over his body and soul than the horcruxes..... [17:46] <Sofie> i think they horcruxes contain the same amount of soul [17:46] <Sofie> otherwise they wouldnt be strong enough [17:47] <Sofie> IMHO [17:47] <melodywenn> I can't help but feel like no horcrux could contain as much soul as his actual body would. [17:47] <Theoriser> yeah [17:47] <Theoriser> but we dont' even know if they split in half, or they split unevenly [17:47] <LJ> I think that he just split off the same amount each time - he knew how many he was aiming for from the beginning, imo [17:47] <TheGuruOfSloth> I tend to agree... although I still think they're taking a chunk of a progressively more "corrupted" soul each time [17:47] <mollywobbles23> I have to leave as soon as it gets really interesting. Oh, well. [17:47] <danae24> I differ from that....... LV had a little bit of soul left when he was defeated by Harry, and still got really strong....... so I'm thinking quantity doesnt matter...... [17:47] <Sofie> what do you think about the theory that the Dementors could locate the horcruxes? [17:47] *** mollywobbles23 has quit [Bye] [17:48] <Theoriser> I don't think dementors would be drawn to them, because a horcrux wouldn't really have happy thoughts that they could feed off [17:48] <melodywenn> Oooh, interesting, Sofie! I hadn't heard that. [17:48] <danae24> No......... i dont think they can search for something like that as if they were nifflers........... [17:49] <Sofie> i think they could eventually feel the presence of the suol-part put in horcrux [17:49] <melodywenn> Plus, I'm not sure the dementors would be able to differentiate all that well, especially considering the switch with Barty Crouch Jr and his mother. [17:49] <melodywenn> All they could sense there was the type of soul, not so much its identity [17:49] <Sofie> yeah, that makes sense melody [17:49] <andythehouseelf> hello [17:49] <mka> I wonder, as each is destroyed, would the section of soul be destroyed or be redistributed to the others? [17:50] <danae24> I'm more up to the idea that they locate happy thoughts more easely than souls........... [17:50] *** DorisTLC has joined #lounge [17:50] <Sofie> hey doris! [17:50] <danae24> Hello Doris! [17:50] <Wizardmom> HI Doris! [17:50] <DorisTLC> Hi everyone [17:51] <DorisTLC> how are you today? [17:51] <danae24> really fine [17:51] <Sofie> fine thanks smile [17:51] <Wizardmom> pretty good [17:52] <DorisTLC> Good - it's hot here in Texas today! [17:52] <TheGuruOfSloth> hey doris smile (we're talking about soul-splitting) [17:52] *** Trozam has joined #lounge [17:52] <DorisTLC> Oooo - Interesting - and ok I'll get back on topic smile [17:52] *** Jrg1990 has joined #lounge [17:53] <Jrg1990> *is back* where are we? [17:53] <Sofie> soulsplitting smile [17:53] <danae24> I'm thinking that LV did know about the amount of his soul that he was putting in each horcrux, so he started keeping them in more safe places and harder to destroy things.... [17:54] <Wizardmom> It would be interesting to know though, if there can be a certain amount of time between killing someone and creating the actual Horcurx [17:54] <Theoriser> but you can't control the amount of soul that is split [17:54] <Theoriser> it just happens when you murder someone [17:54] <Sofie> yes, i alwasy wondered that too, Wizardmom [17:54] <Sofie> i dont think its unlimited, there must be some rule [17:55] *** andythehouseelf has quit [Bye] [17:55] <Theoriser> maybe it's the time that it takes for you to be untraumatised by what you did, like I think somebody said in the modcast [17:55] <Wizardmom> Obviously Tom wanted certain things to be Horcruxes, would he take those objects with him? I don't think so, so there would have to bea certain abount of time go by [17:55] *** andythehouseelf has joined #lounge [17:56] <Wizardmom> holy moly, I can't type..lol [17:56] <Sofie> yes but when you kill someboby because you want to make a horcrux, you dont fell like it was a bad thing [17:56] <Sofie> you dont have feeling there anymore [17:56] <danae24> Yes, the killer doesnt feel remorse......... [17:57] <wulung> I wonder if there is a percentage change with each horcrux made...ie. the first time 1/2 of your whole soul and because you only have 12 remaining the next time it's 1.4? [17:57] <wulung> 1/2 [17:57] *** andythehouseelf left #lounge [] [17:57] <melodywenn> I don't know, Wizardmom...given the amount of symbolism that Tom gave things, I can see him murdering special people with the specific intention of creating a horcrux, and bringing his things along. [17:57] <wulung> 1/4 [17:57] <danae24> I'm really bad with math...... sorry....... [17:57] <wulung> me too hehehehe [17:57] <Sofie> im an anti-math person, too [17:58] *** aarphp has joined #lounge [17:58] <Wizardmom> that's an interesting thought [17:58] <wulung> I don't do math thats why they made Quackulators [17:58] <melodywenn> But almost anything seems possible, given how little we know about the process of creating a horcrux! [17:58] <Sofie> i think Jason was right saying that you cant split the soul into exact amout of percentages [17:59] <Wizardmom> We know Tom has probably killed a lot of people, but maybe it was only a certain few special people that were used to create the Horcruxes [17:59] *** aarphp has quit [Bye] [17:59] <danae24> Maybe he did have certain people to kill that he wanted to make horcruxes of out their deaths...... but others had been kind of unplanned....... because he never did really intended to kill Mirtle [18:00] <danae24> but still made a horcrux out of her death.... [18:00] <Theoriser> oh, that raises a good point too [18:00] <Sofie> or maye he made horcruxes after he killed really powerful witches/wizards or his realtives [18:00] <mka> I wonder if the person killed is related to the thing used as a horcrux? anyone know? [18:00] <Theoriser> because the basilisk killed her and not him, could he still have made a horcrux? [18:00] <Wizardmom> Maybe splitting your soul has to do with a killing you REALLY want to do, not just some random Joe you AK [18:00] <Sofie> lol [18:01] <wulung> What about the diary? [18:01] <Sofie> or maybe you could make horcruxes ot of the "killings" you committed because of the horcrxes [18:01] <wulung> who would he have killed to make it? [18:01] *** Trozam has quit [Bye] [18:01] <LJ> I don't think he made a Horcrux after Myrtle - he didn't kill her [18:02] <Sofie> the basilisk killed myrtle [18:02] <LJ> he could have used his granparents, or fathers, murders for it [18:02] <mka> If it was a gift, perhaps the giver [18:02] <Theoriser> could he have though, if he wanted to? [18:02] <danae24> he set the basiliks over the students.......... [18:02] *** MissJubilee has joined #lounge [18:03] <Theoriser> does it matter if you kill them directly or are just responsible for it through your actions [18:03] <wulung> Not one of his weapons? [18:03] *** Ringo_2000 has joined #lounge [18:03] <TheGuruOfSloth> great discussion here! i'm sorry i've got to leave... bye all! [18:03] *** TheGuruOfSloth left #lounge [] [18:03] <Ringo_2000> hi [18:03] <Ringo_2000> hi [18:04] <Sofie> hi ringo [18:04] <MissJubilee> Hello, all. [18:04] <wulung> Hi Ringo! [18:04] *** Estrella has quit [Bye] [18:04] <danae24> hi ringo!! [18:04] <LJ> that always surprised me - he used a Muggle artefact as a Horcrux, why? And why did he have it in the first place? What Muggle would give him a diary, with his name on, as a gift? [18:04] <Ringo_2000> Hello [18:04] <Theoriser> got to go [18:04] *** NickTLC has joined #lounge [18:05] *** Theoriser has quit [Bye] [18:05] <LJ> and if he bought it himself, why would he put his name on it if he hated his name? [18:05] <Ringo_2000> Is this the PotterCast or has it gone off-topic lol? [18:05] *** Estrella has joined #lounge [18:05] *** danae24 left #lounge [] [18:05] <Sofie> good question laurie [18:05] <wulung> So if LV set the basilisk on Myrtle then he was the agent fof her murder. [18:05] *** danae24 has joined #lounge [18:05] <Ringo_2000> LJ - I am having problems with my connection it is very very slow [18:05] *** Estrella has quit [Bye] [18:06] <danae24> I'm having trouble typing....... [18:06] <Jrg1990> Maybe the orphanage got it him as a present *is guessing, although its unlikely* [18:06] <LJ> It's the PotterCast chat Ringo, the ModCast was on Horcruxes, and soul splitting [18:06] <danae24> It' weird that he got something like that.............. [18:06] <Ringo_2000> kk [18:06] <Sofie> i think he made/bought it for himself [18:06] <Sofie> he is like harry - never got gifts [18:06] <wulung> Typing....that's what it's called....I forgot! [18:06] <LJ> that's possible James [18:07] <MissJubilee> Sorry, do we know the diary was a Muggle diary, LJ? If not, anyone at school could have given it to him... (sorry, just listening to PC now, took forever to download) [18:08] <LJ> it was from a Muggle place, Vauxhall Road in London [18:08] *** mugglebornkat has quit [Bye] [18:08] <wulung> A muggle front for a wizard shop? [18:08] <Jrg1990> *is lagging very badly* [18:08] *** mugglebornkat has joined #lounge [18:09] * danae24 isnt able to type......... [18:09] * danae24 post arent comming up................ [18:09] <Sofie> *is officially confused [18:09] <LJ> What did you guys think of the Fan Interview with Moriah? [18:09] <Wizardmom> I think what's interesting about Tom splitting his soul, is he thought he would be stronger if he had more than one Horcrux [18:09] <mka> I tried to connect 3 times [18:10] <Sofie> i liked it [18:10] <mugglebornkat> I thought it was interesting to hear about how reading about Krum and Bulgaria meant so much to someone actually living there [18:10] *** mugglebornkat has quit [Bye] [18:10] <Wizardmom> when he has become much less human [18:10] <melodywenn> I really enjoyed that. It's really interesting to think about the prevalence of Harry Potter in other parts of the world, especially since I'm assuming that most of us live in a place where Harry Potter is hugely popular. [18:10] *** danae24 has quit [Bye] [18:11] *** mugglebornkat has joined #lounge [18:11] <Sofie> lol reading about the HUngarian Horntail meant a lot to me, too [18:11] *** danae24 has joined #lounge [18:12] *** Jrg1990 left #lounge [] [18:12] <LJ> ... [18:12] <mka> ancestory Hungarian Sofie? [18:12] <danae24> testing...... [18:12] * danae24 cant type.......... this is frustating.......... [18:13] <Wizardmom> I'll be honest, I skipped the fan interview [18:13] <danae24> It was good [18:13] <MissJubilee> my first thought too, wulung... second idea is that it's "imported" (hm, I'm not sure what I type is going through) [18:13] *** Jrg1990 has joined #lounge [18:13] <DorisTLC> Moriah is a very interesting person [18:13] * LJ is not biased [18:13] <LJ> I loved it [18:13] <danae24> I liked that whole diferent point of view........... [18:13] <Sofie> im Hungarian, and im living here too mka smile [18:14] <wulung> That's Awesome Sofie!!! [18:15] <Sofie> *is slow and cant type decently* [18:15] <Sofie> well, i guess, wulung smile [18:15] <danae24> neither of us can type decently Sofie.......... [18:15] <mugglebornkat> no one can [18:16] <melodywenn> Yeah, we're all lagging, I think. [18:16] <Jrg1990> yup [18:16] <danae24> we are suffering chat lag......... [18:16] <Jrg1990> super lag [18:16] <LJ> I liked the different view too danae - and from an American living in Bulgaria, it makes it that bit different too - Moriah knows what the HP obsession is like back in America (though hasn't lived there for two years, but has heard from friends/family) [18:16] *** ammieofohio has joined #lounge [18:17] <mka> Is someone in charge of seeing that the translations accurately reflect what Jo wrote or is that purely up the each publishing house? [18:17] <LJ> Hi Ammie, we're discussing Pottercast; currently the Fan interview with Moriah [18:17] *** KimmyBlair has joined #lounge [18:18] <KimmyBlair> and i'm back [18:18] <LJ> woot, Hi Kimmy [18:18] <Sofie> i gotta say that the hungarian translator guy is a genious. i ve met him and he is just brilliant [18:18] <LJ> we're onto the fan interview [18:18] *** LunainKY has joined #lounge [18:18] <KimmyBlair> again [18:18] <KimmyBlair> I thought the fan interview was amazing... [18:18] <KimmyBlair> perfect timing! [18:19] <KimmyBlair> granted i'm biased [18:19] <MissJubilee> But it wouldn't be 'someONE' would it? Hopefully the translators are the best people to check on accuracy, but you'd think they'd have sombody else check it in each editing house [18:19] <danae24> I can really understan Moriah, living in a country that doesnt really have many Hp fans......... [18:19] *** LunainKY has quit [Bye] [18:19] <KimmyBlair> i just thought it was great to see a different perspective... than someone in the US/UK who has access to all of the Harry potter fandom at any time [18:19] <LJ> well I heard that some of the translations are very bad [18:20] <LJ> I can't remember which language, but one makes them really childish - for kids [18:20] *** mugglebornkat left #lounge [] [18:20] <danae24> most of the jokes and stuff get lost in translation, and they change a lot of the things..... mainly the title of book 6............ [18:20] *** Trozam has joined #lounge [18:21] *** Ringo_2000 has quit [Bye] [18:21] <Sofie> well compared to the original, the translations are obviously different [18:21] <Sofie> but you cant blame eveyrthing on the translators [18:21] <LJ> yeah Kimmy, and Moriah, as an American, knows the difference in the countries - not many other Bulgarians will realise how big it is here (or wouldn't have before GoF film) [18:21] <KimmyBlair> ahhh so slow! [18:21] <MissJubilee> It would take quite a bit to translate the books so that the jokes translate. I think a few of them get lost just in the transition from England to the US! smile [18:21] *** Siobhan4hp has joined #lounge [18:22] <danae24> I hate being slow....... [18:22] *** Wizardmom has quit [Bye] [18:22] *** ammieofohio has quit [Bye] [18:22] *** ammieofohio has joined #lounge [18:22] *** mugglebornkat has joined #lounge [18:22] *** Wizardmom has joined #lounge [18:22] <Siobhan4hp> hey [18:22] <KimmyBlair> So did you guys think it was a good idea for a fan interivew? [18:23] *** Siobhan4hp has quit [Bye] [18:23] <danae24> yes, but it kind of keeps the essence of the book and the jokes and stuff, when they translate, it losses a lot of that....... [18:23] <LJ> Slightly off topic, but make sure if you are going to Lumos to check out Josee's talk on translating HP [18:23] <Sofie> sometimes i fell like ppl are to hars and dont realize what a hard work it it to translate books like HP - full of inside jokes, britishizm etc [18:23] <KimmyBlair> honeslty [18:23] <Sofie> cant type, sorry [18:23] <Sofie> i liked it kimmy [18:24] <mugglebornkat> yes, Kimmy. It was awesome. [18:24] <ammieofohio> =) I thought it was pwnage. [18:24] *** wulung has quit [Bye] [18:24] <LJ> much better than the fan response to CC - the fan interview feels like more of a part of the show [18:24] <danae24> I did pwned!! [18:24] *** Val_Halla has joined #lounge [18:25] <mka> A great interview idea, I hope that there are more like that! [18:25] <KimmyBlair> i know we dont' use fan interivews often... but i want ot make sure when they are used people like them [18:25] <MissJubilee> I've bought a couple of the books in Chinese while I've lived there, they're a lot thinner than the English, I guess because characters are shorter than English words! [18:25] <MissJubilee> No idea how well they're translated, though. But lots of my university students like the films! [18:26] <KimmyBlair> did you guys discuss the modcast at all? [18:26] *** Wizardmom has quit [Bye] [18:27] <mugglebornkat> yes, we did. [18:27] <danae24> bye guys, have fun.......... [18:27] <ammieofohio> ((I'm going to restart my modem thingie... it's too slow. biggrin)) [18:27] <KimmyBlair> man [18:28] <danae24> this whole typing thing is not letting me type......... [18:28] <mugglebornkat> There was Kimmy overload on PC. [18:28] <Jrg1990> lol [18:28] *** danae24 has quit [Bye] [18:28] <KimmyBlair> haha yeah sorry about that [18:29] *** Theoriser has joined #lounge [18:29] <LJ> haha [18:29] <KimmyBlair> i'll try not to swamp you guys with so much kimmy any time soon [18:29] <LJ> but we love Kimmy! [18:29] <KimmyBlair> it was totally not planned!!!!! [18:29] <KimmyBlair> awww yeah [18:29] *** Sofie has quit [Bye] [18:29] <mugglebornkat> lol, we do love you Kimmy [18:30] <DorisTLC> The mod cast was really good today [18:30] <KimmyBlair> :huggles for everyone: [18:30] <KimmyBlair> I LOVED how into it Lorie was [18:30] *** MissJubilee has quit [Bye] [18:31] <Theoriser> lol [18:31] <KimmyBlair> you could really almost see her thinking throught the process of soul splitting [18:31] *** MissJubilee has joined #lounge [18:31] <mugglebornkat> lol [18:32] *** secretkeepertoall has joined #lounge [18:32] *** PolythenePam has joined #lounge [18:32] <Theoriser> anything to do with slytherin, I suppose! [18:33] *** secretkeepertoall has quit [Bye] [18:33] <LJ> Have any of you ever been made fun of for being into Harry Potter like the caller in this week's Mailbag? [18:33] <MissJubilee> so, if no one's asked it yet, ... perry, ginny, hermione, voldemort, snape? live or die? (i've just finished the fan intermew) [18:33] <Theoriser> yeah years ago though, and not really much anymore because nobody knows so much [18:33] <mugglebornkat> i ignore it [18:34] <DorisTLC> I have not been made fun of, but I know that there are others that have [18:34] <Theoriser> but a couple of my friends read the books, and I persuaded one of them to start reading them [18:34] *** Theoriser has quit [Bye] [18:34] <LJ> my family make fun of me all the time [18:34] *** wulung has joined #lounge [18:35] *** Theoriser has joined #lounge [18:35] <KimmyBlair> Yeah i read after most of my friends... So they already were fans by the time I started! [18:35] <LJ> and when they see me taking notes for the RG's... [18:35] <melodywenn> Most of my friends have read the books, but no one is really as big of a fan as I am. [18:35] <melodywenn> They're used to my obsessive ways, though. [18:36] <KimmyBlair> she thinks Im some sort of celebrity when I mention podcasts [18:36] <LJ> hahah [18:36] <LJ> awesome [18:37] <DorisTLC> Kimmy is a celebrity! [18:37] *** Wizardmom has joined #lounge [18:37] <LJ> I don't have any close friends who have read the books, some have seen the films though... [18:37] <melodywenn> Well, you are a little bit of a celebrity! You know, in a relative way. [18:37] <Jrg1990> lol [18:37] *** PolythenePam has quit [Bye] [18:37] <mka> I have heard a few religeous types bad mouthing the books while I was trying to eat in a restaurant [18:38] <LJ> I know some people who have read them, but they're not into discussing them - though some try to humour me [18:38] <Wizardmom> made it back, what part are we talking about now? [18:38] <MissJubilee> No, never made fun of. Get some wierd looks from time to time, but that's it (pardon if this is posted twice) [18:38] *** Llyssa has joined #lounge [18:38] <Theoriser> I hate the fact that it's always people who've never read them that condemn them for being anti christian [18:38] <melodywenn> I do have some friends who don't read the books. They don't make fun of me or anything, but I have gotten comments from them like, "It's just not my thing. It just doesn't interest me." That almost hurts more than teasing would! [18:38] *** PolythenePam has joined #lounge [18:38] <mka> agree [18:39] <LJ> WE're talking about whether you have been made fun of reading HP, like the person in the Mailbag [18:39] <Llyssa> XD [18:39] <LJ> Hi Llyssa [18:39] <Llyssa> Theoriser, I love when I walk into a chat and immediately agree. [18:39] *** kadi has joined #lounge [18:39] *** Trozam has quit [Bye] [18:39] <Jrg1990> hey kadi [18:39] <Llyssa> sad [18:39] <Wizardmom> oh gosh, I get made fun of reading HP all the time, but mostly because I'm 34, and people tease me for reading a "children's book" [18:40] *** Llyssa has quit [Bye] [18:40] <mugglebornkat> hey Kadi [18:40] <KimmyBlair> KADI!

[18:41] <kadi> hey guys! [18:42] *** Potteraddict1 has quit [Bye] [18:42] <Wizardmom> I think kids and people in general who tease us are just jealous because they're not part of the fun [18:42] <ammieofohio> I go to an all Christain school and proudly wear my Potter Tshirts on casual Fridays. I've been dragged into the Principal's room, been made fun of, and just about anything you can imagine. [18:42] <ammieofohio> lol. They should be jealous! [18:42] <mka> or no immagination [18:42] *** wulung has quit [Bye] [18:43] *** MissJubilee has quit [Bye] [18:43] <Val_Halla> Dragged into the principal's room for wearing a t-shirt?!? [18:43] <ammieofohio> *dances* [18:43] <ammieofohio> yep. [18:43] <ammieofohio> terrible, eh? [18:43] * Jrg1990 gives up on trying to beat the lag coz he has to go. [18:43] <mka> are people being disconnected? [18:43] <Wizardmom> ammie, I've worn my Potter jacket to mass on occasions, and I get looks too, but I wear it proudly [18:44] *** Jrg1990 left #lounge [] [18:44] <ammieofohio> =) I'd do that in a heart beat. haha. I love being the center of attention... but that's usually bad. hehe. [18:44] *** PolythenePam has quit [Bye] [18:45] <LJ> haha [18:45] <ammieofohio> I think they are... =/ [18:45] <melodywenn> I have a Leaky t-shirt, and I always secretly hope that someone's going to come up to me and be like, "Hey! The Leaky Cauldron! YEAH!" Fan solidarity and all that. [18:45] <Theoriser> yeah that'd be so cool [18:45] <mka> I't not like we've started the First Church of Harry Potter, they need to lighten up [18:46] <LJ> Did you enjoy having Ben and Andrew on the show this week? [18:46] <LJ> that would rock [18:46] <Val_Halla> tee hee [18:46] <melodywenn> It was a little weird! I mean, they're great guys, but no one can replace Melissa. [18:46] <Wizardmom> I like Ben and Andrew [18:47] <Wizardmom> I did miss Melissa though, and too bad Sue couldn't have been on Mailbag [18:47] <ammieofohio> ((...it's being ridiculously slow right now for me... gahhh)) [18:48] <melodywenn> I have this need for consistency. No Melissa? Whaaaat?! No Sue in the mailbag? Whaaaat?! John being serious some of the time? Whaaaaat?! [18:49] <melodywenn> But hey, it's still Pottercast, so it's still good. [18:49] <mka> smile [18:49] <Wizardmom> that's right [18:49] <mka> John serious biggrin [18:49] <kadi> haha i feel the same way melodywenn [18:50] <Wizardmom> I think they should add "What would Melissa Do" bracelets to the Cauldron shop [18:50] *** ammieofohio left #lounge [] [18:50] <melodywenn> lol, that part was hilarious [18:50] <mka> lol [18:51] <melodywenn> Then we could all wear the bracelets and when we hit tough times, all we have to do is look at our wrist for guidance. [18:52] *** ammieofohio has joined #lounge [18:53] <mka> Are any more join casts being planned [18:53] *** Wizardmom has quit [Bye] [18:53] <mka> i mean joint [18:53] <DorisTLC> Vegas of course - and new york [18:54] <ammieofohio> Of course.
