Also, Dumbledore being gay has got to count for something...granted it was never mentioned in the books, but you know...Word of God...
If it had been in the books it would have been somewhat impressive; as it was it came off more like a publicity stunt than anything.
I don't think it was a publicity stunt, since apparently it was something she'd told the movie scriptwriters a long time ago, but the fact remains that it's part of her worldbuilding, not something stated or even strongly suggested in the books themselves. That's not really groundbreaking, especially not when you consider that there are other works of children's and young adult fiction that feature LGBT characters.
Remember back in the 50s when they'd record like Elvis singing YOU AIN'T NOTHIN BUT A HOUND DOG and then they'd turn the record over and reverse it and it was all NYERP NYERP NYERP NYERP NYERP and people were all like, "That is actually the voice of Satan coming from that song."
Hi, clock. How's it going?
Yeah, several years ago there was no shortage of horror stories about the Harry Potter fanbase. Some of them were over the weirdest things too, especially the arguments that had nothing to do with Harry Potter.
NO. I did not want to return to this pointless argument (which I pretty clearly lost), but no. That is a strawman.
As a "hardcore gamer" (a term with which I no longer identify, but it was my armour at one point), I was the one defending the good games - many of which were made by Nintendo - against the hordes of casual fans who jeered and mocked me for liking games made by a kiddie company. Back then, Nintendo were "hardcore" in my book. It was the casual crowd, with their obsession with Darker and Edgier FPS games and other crap like that, who were calling them a kid's company.

" It was not at all appropriate in the context in which I said it, though (in a thread in which people were acting as apologists for racism)."
...OK There has GOT to be forgiveness laws regarding stupid shit in retarded threads when you stop giving a fuck.
Note, that it still counts if you actually give a fuck, I'm looking at YOU people who argued the probability of "Space Imps creating the world last Thursday" in earnest.

Kexruct: I posted a little bit in the motherheap under this same name. Come to think of it, didn't we talk about one of your video game ideas there once?

Remembering my past (and often current) idiocies is bad enough, but having them right in front of my face makes it horrendous.
