You know what I really hate? (RANT ALERT) Grammar and spelling errors in simple statements. Is it really that hard to proof read your work? Those annoying red lines are there for a reason, people. Your computer is not playing tricks on you, you've made a mistake. It's frustrating to read a fanfiction that sounds really interesting, but is interrupted constantly by horrible grammar, passable vocabulary, and intrusive author's notes. Example:

He walked dowbn to the edj of the dok and diped his feet into the plascid watr 4 a lng moment, nd then he turned to her and sed," Y know i love you very much but i think we shuld take a brek, maybe go on vacashun.

HOW HARD IS IT TO GO BACK AND READ YOUR FUCKING WORK BEFORE YOU POST IT WHERE EVERYONE CAN SEE IT?! AND WHY GET PISSED WHEN YOU GET FLAMED??? IT'S YOUR FAULT, YOU EFFING RETARD,WHY ARE YOU SURPRISED?!?

Okay. Rant over. 

In other news, I'm excited about the Half-Blood Prince coming out, even though it was pushed back for that stupid Twilight movie. (Ugh. Horrible script, worse acting.) 

:) An entire screen of Severus Snape. I can't wait. :)

In case you were wondering (Seriously? Who would?), I am an avid reader of fanfiction, especially that of the Harry Potter series. And I hate numerous, obvious mistakes. So, ha.

I, frozenchickesmoke am a big fan of Myers- briggs typology. Extroverted or Introverted, iNtuitive or Sensing, Thinking or Feeling, and Perceiving or Judging are the basics.

I am an ENFJ: I love people and am occasionally manipulative for the greater good of those closest to me.

I 'tested' some prominent Harry Potter characters and found the results to be . . . revealing. 

I believe Harry to be an ESFJ, characterized as a supportive, traditional, comfortable leader who is sometimes inflexible due to his firm belief in right and wrong. 

Hermione, I believe, is an ENTJ, characterized as an analytical, "big picture" thinker who is confident and values intelligence.

Ron, I believe, is an ESFP, characterized as an energetic "people" person, spontaneous, commitment shy, and good with children.  

Professor Severus Snape, my personal favorite character, I believe to be an INTJ, characterized as a brilliant, argumentative control freak who avoids emotional risks and  needs to be around competent people (Heh).

Dumbledore, I believe, is a fellow ENFJ, characterized as a meddling old coot, but with staggering charisma and genuine concern for the well being of anyone he comes in contact with.

Voldemort is . . . well, a jerk-face. I don't know enough about him to really give him an accurate type, but if actions could talk . . . Hmm . . . I . . . N . . . T . . . J. Amazing. 

It makes sense that Severus would be drawn to Voldemort in his youth (Great minds think alike, y'know?), but his love for Lily was all consuming and, let's face it, if your idol and inspiration was out to kill your one true love, you'd be a little ticked, right?
