Are children these days sad bastards?

Wellll it's gonna die after a week or so of the release date of this volume, since it's the final one :P

Anyways, if you want to feel better, go look up the plot of the upcoming book, and when the lines for the release of the book start forming up, start shouting in public who dies, etc

anyone who kills their own self over hairy twatter probably deserves it

Isn't he dead yet. I'll have to watch the final film just to make sure. ;)

Well that's because it isn't the "final" film...as the last book isn't even out yet

But the best quote from the article:

'ChildLine received a "significant number" of calls from children after the split of boy band Take That'

Who the fcuk are Take That????

I said final film, not the current one. I knew what i was typing. I'm not going to read the book.

Absolute bloody disgrace... you've got kids out there being seriously beaten/abused/neglected/starved by their parents or legal guardians and Childline's being monopolised by sad fuck Harry Potter readers.

When is this fad gonna die eh?

The only people worse than the kids reading that shite are the adults.

I think the point they make about it "bringing back memories" is the key one. Kids may have unpleasant things brought back to them by all sorts of media or personal experiences, and may as a result feel the need to call childline to get it off their chests. In this case we have potentially millions of kids simultaneously exposed to a single, potentially memory triggering media event.

Having said the above.....

Anyone who rings it BECAUSE some non-existent spotty cunt gets offed should of course be asked to call back on a landline so that the RINGER VOLTAGE CAN BE HOOKED STRAIGHT UP THE EARPIECE INTO THEIR "BRAIN".

I listened to the audio books in the depths of my not wellness last year and found them a pleasant enough distraction, but hardly classic literature. Can see the appeal and benefit to kids too (since I pretty much consider myself about 14 ), each book lengthens and expands the language, plot complexity and general depth, in that respect they are like Ye Olde Reading Books. Besides, ANYTHING that gets a kid to read anything but a text message or Take a Shit CANNOT be bad.

end of book 7: six characters die, epilogue ("nineteen years later") states Harry lives and gets married.

take that, rather.

Nah, when I was small, my classmate made fun of my Duran Duran cut out picture sticked to my notebook that I got from a songhits magazine. He drew horns and other stuff to the members, that made me really upset with him, and I didn't talk to him for the rest of the school year!

Now, I'll probably tear down a Duran Duran poster when I see one.

Indeed!

Whats sad is spoilers!!! Theres bound to be tw&ts out there who will post on sites or in papers the finale of the final Harry Potter book. And for what? Utter pointless one-up-mans-ship just to spoil it for millions of kids.

GET A F&CKING LIFE!

*sigh* Because none of the other Harry Haters answered...

Take That had a song last decade called 'Back For Good' which, unfortunately, still gets some airplay in the adult contemporary music station in my part of the world.

The band had Robbie Williams. He's the dude that did that song 'Millenium' from a handful of years back.

Is this making ANY sense to you, Edel?

[If not I could always find MP3s and PM them to you. ;)]

P.S. Yes, I will be getting the final book. Unlike the idiot spoilers however, I'm not telling who dies.

And if you have a problem with me actually enjoying the series then, all I can say is the following:

6/21/3/11 15/6/6.

i know, childline has a more important remit, and they decide to deal with children who have been left "traumatised" by not getting the final installment of the Harry Potter books, i mean there will always be plenty of other shops to get it from

just a bunch of sad men who are followed by girls who cant let go

Well, I could understand loss of such an unforgettable character. This may not be a good comparison, but I'm sure adults acted like those children when John Lennon died.

Does Cozzie die at the end of this thread?

Yes, and the evil Lord Reynolds takes over the world... Meanwhile in other news, Barney announced today that Lord Voldemort would be replacing Hooky in New Order... And The Cure announced that they would be splitting up after Fat Bob discovered he could earn far more working as a Hagrid impersonator...

Will anyone be foolish/brave enough to take on explaining the difference between reality and fiction????

Or has Cozzie finally gotten herself a sense of humour???

Will the Dr? manage to swing this thread round to evolution???

Are we about to get invaded by a die hard group of take that lovers???

What is digi mikes favorite type of cheese???

Will Chris Nash become best pals with his orangutan stalker???

Why am I asking all these pointless questions???

Will it ever stop???

what happens if I don't end each question with three question marks???

For answers to these thrilling questions* and more... stay tuned...or skip the guff and head to the last couple of posts in this thread

*(unlikely)

Oh god, it's an epidemic.
