  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Jfc, she really is an idiot.

I mean, we all knew that, but the sheer depths pf utter idiocy that woman emits is a pollutant.

I always thought she sucked as an author, then she showed her ugly personality, she's got nothing.

I read the first book when it came out and thought it felt like if you asked a group of teenagers to come up with a wizard story in 5 minutes and they spout out a bunch of ideas that come from previous cartoons and movies and mixed it together. But I gave it a pass, it's a kids book and I was like 20 and things get rehashed over time.

Harry Potter is what current generation AI would come up given other wizard stories as input.

At this point I'm pretty sure she's just trolling social media.

This is the problem with social media. The dumbest opinions get spread not because they have a good point or even advance the discussion, but because they're dumb and we like to look at dumb opinions for entertainment value.

Geez, lady, just LET IT GO. You're not going to win this argument. You can't turn things around by powering through... you're just going to charge off a cliff. (Also, your films with Eddie Redmayne in them suck. Stop making those.)
