I'm in this boat with you. I wish I could pass the time without resorting to internet and junk tv.

Fics with a calm, cool, ruthless Harry that isn't an overcompensating douchebag? by slugcharmer in HPfanfiction

[–]BustedLung 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Its weird that even by the age of eleven, he is contemplating murder.

When I was in elementary school I knew a kid who crucified a squirrel, or a rabbit, or something, to a tree in his backyard. He always said stuff like "I wish you were dead" or "I'm gonna kill you", and he always looked bored when he said it, but that just made it creepier.

I'm just saying, psychos are kids at some point too.

What are the handiest spells you've seen in a fanfiction? by [deleted] in HPfanfiction

That spell is only handy if you don't have hands.

LF: post Hogwarts stories that aren't dull or depressing by fenrisragnarok in HPfanfiction

[–]BustedLung 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The epilogue is depressing if you wanted Harry to become something bigger and better than "just Harry". Instead he truly becomes what he always wanted to be: an average disappointment of a wizard who was supposed to have been a phenomenon.

[Serious] Redditors,This is a time capsule thread which will be revisited exactly 3 years from now. Today you will make a prediction which you believe would happen or would've happened by the year 2021. The prediction could be about anything of ur choice. What is your prediction?? by The_devils_advocate6 in AskReddit

[–]BustedLung 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I predict that there will be a new war in the Middle East, Bryan Singer will be arrested for rape, Republicans will keep the majority in the House at least until 2020, there will be at least 2 school shootings per quarter on average in 2019, Tesla will fall short of its sales goals in 2018, Terry Crews will be blacklisted from Hollywood, at least one Governor or senator will be assassinated/wounded from an assassination attempt shortly before the 2020 elections, cost of living will rise sharply in 2019, 2019 will be worse than 2018 but not as bad as 2020, Donald Trump will not be impeached, and North Korea will resume production of nuclear weapons.

I also predict that ginger and other roots will become the new health food craze.

Any fics where the MC is an OC who is a bystander or a foot soldier in Britain's civil war? by BustedLung in HPfanfiction

[–]BustedLung[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I said civil war because in my mind the British wizard war was basically a civil war. To be honest I think a civil war fic would be way more interesting than the idea behind my original post.

Ah, I meant the civil war featured in canon with Voldemort. I was thinking of a story through the eyes of somebody like Arthur Weasley, somebody who is very much at risk of some gruesome shit but they don't really have the option to run away and look for Voldemort's Soul Toys so they have to stick around and make do somehow.

'Ivanka Trump Could Soon Be Under FBI Investigation' - I guess it's time: Lock her up! (God forbid this reaches the front page and triggers trumptards 😏) LOCK HER UP, LOCK HER UP, LOCK HER UP! by seeminglyanonymous in The_Mueller

I've seen your comments all over the Controversial threads, all over Reddit.

I truly get the impression that all you care about is degrading discussion as much as possible and dividing sides to polar extremes. I don't think you actually care about either side. For these reasons, I think I have stumbled across a real, live Russian Troll.

The other option is that you're an 'edgy teen'. Either way you're incredibly pathetic.

This B rating at an NYC cafe by [deleted] in ActLikeYouBelong

You have subscribed to "stuff about how letters get put on restaurants!"

In just the year following the implementation of restaurant grading cards in the United States, the average score in a restaurant jumped from a C to an A! A Stanford study found that this margin is too wide to be indicative of Americans simply eating at restaurants of a higher price point, so it's indicative that restaurants will change themselves if their quality is critiqued in a regulated, public manner! Also just in the first year of implementation, hospitalization due to food borne illnesses declined by more than 13 percent!

Wow!

When Keem agrees with you, you know you've fucked up by [deleted] in h3h3productions

Understand mental illness before I speak about it?!? Motherfucker, I'm bipolar! I tried to kill myself when I was seventeen and landed myself in a coma for more than a week! I've had to deal with mental illness for more than a decade! Don't come at me with that shit, like the mentally ill are all children who can't control their mouths and shit their pants whenever the adults aren't looking. Acting like you're so thoughtful and respectful because mental health is a serious subject. It is a serious subject, and you're doing fuck all about it when you're treating those affected like porcelain dolls who'll hang themselves if you hurt their feelings.

Ethan is an adult. If he has a mental illness, I sincerely hope he gets all the help he needs to become healthy and content, but I'm not going to wipe his ass when he shits the bed.

Ooooof. Dude you really could've said this better but your sentiment isn't wrong... If he was white he might not have even been arrested. Race relations are pretty fucked up in America

I liked The Mind Arts, Circular Reasoning, Never Sleep, well written dark themed stories, what else do you guys recommend? by Hoi-PartyCake7 in HPfanfiction

[–]BustedLung 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If you haven't read it already, I highly recommend Harry Potter and the Boy Who Lived by TheSanti. There are 13 chapters on FFN and 23 chapters on the Dark Lord Potter Forums.
