You’re fighting a losing battle there, dear
I dig Harry Potter as much as the next guy – and this particular blog plays with a lot of the themes, but Jeezez, Steven Vander Ark needs to get a life and quit acting like a Grade-A fuckstick. Getting hard over spell etymology or planning to work as a guide for a travel company giving Harry Potter-themed tours in Europe is just fuckin’ pathetic.
When not sobbing on the stand (fuck me freddy), Vander Ark states that he was leery of publishing his lexicon, but was “talked into it” by the publisher. Bullshit. RDR gave a big fat check, bent him over and now look what’s happening.
The only individual who should be putting a Harry Potter lexicon together is J.K. herself. Not some loser turd from Michigan – yeah, that’s right – same fuckin’ numbnut state that mucked up a Democratic presidential primary.
I like how J.K. has handled this. I dig her threat of not doing her own lexicon if a jerkoff like Vander Ark is allowed to do his. Let the masses deal with this greedy little pig for her.
I respect that.
It may not be J.K. shoes embedded in Vander Ark’s nuts, but the effect will still be the same.
I knew the Dago would step right up in J.K.’s defense, so Cornboy is ready and waiting… Granted, Vander Ark does sound a full-on sniveling little pussy but really, c’mon, does anyone actually give a shit WHO writes the goddamn lexicon? IMHO, little Harry Snotrag wore out his fuckin’ welcome about half-way through the second book. Jayzuz!
But hey, let’s squeeze yet another cash-cow hardback out of the franchise, right? Then we can see even more coverage of the long lines of idiots waiting to buy the first copies at Border’s and WalMart.
I think J.K. is the greedy little pig, and her “threat” sounds whiny and insipid. “Well if HE does HIS then I’M not doing MINE!” You can almost hear her stamping her little feet. Makes me wanna yark my cornflakes up all over my desk. But oh no, J.K – who already has more money than most countries – she’ll fire up the lawyers, the publishers fire up theirs, Vander Ark is lawyering up on his own, three million more tress will be sacrificed, bazillions of $$ will be wasted, and all because Harry fans want know what happens when you mix bat semen and mouse turds together?!?! It’s fucking criminal.
This whole thing carries no more importance to the world than what Britney had for breakfast. Unbelievable!
Cornboy is right – I’ll disagree with him, well, because I can and it’ll annoy this shit outta him.
Brass tacks.
It’s J.K.’s work. It’s that simple.
$$’s part of the equation – and rightfully so – those are her nickels out there someone is trying to pinch by doing nothing more than copying the work she’s already done. As a Dago, I’ll stomp anybody who tries to take what’s mine, regardless of how much I do, or do not have.
Vander Ark is like those copry turds who hand around long enough by taking credit for people’s work and ends up and your ineffectual, mousy, impotent, bitchy boss one day.
And the real jackoff in all of this is the judge who can’t make a fuckin’ decision. Dude, that’s your job. If you don’t have the stones, then don’t be a judge. Judge…judgement. Fuck. Patteson is just as bad as that twit Vander Ark.
