Alright so maybe I'm just a big loser, geek, nerd, loser, whatever you want to call it. I was just curious if anyone else was in anticipation for the release of the last Harry Potter book. I will be at the store Friday night to be 1 of the first in the midwest to purchase.

And to help encourage responses in this thread (although it may need to be moved) pictures of any lovely ladies holding the book would be very nice

I preordered the deluxe version and it's being delivered to my house! Looks like I'm a geek too

Janey...you may be a geek.....but your still a geek I'd like to fu*k

Don't worry, I thought you were a big loser, geek, nerd, loser BEFORE I found out you were a Potter fan

the family went to the new harry potter movie last evening , they all gave it a 2 on a scale of 1=10 , they said it was really slow and boring and My son loves potter .

Maybe so, but what did they say about the ticket-taker with the big tits? Did she scored a 9 out of 10?

By the way, the series ends with J.K. Rowling worth 1.1 billion dollars. And everyone, especially her, living happily ever after.

My day job is the electronics dept manager at Wally World. Im also in charge of the friday night hoopla at my store We just got 1120 copies of the hardback, 8 copies of the book on CD and 6 copies of this ultra hardback extra nice set We are sworn not to reveal the ending to anyone .... but I have heard of the book getting stolen and scanned and out on the torrents right now

do you think during all the commotion you could turn a blind eye while I walk out with a PS3 system?

Ohhh ohh hooo ohhh hoooo I don't think so....

is that dude wearing the correct amount of flair?

IS this really NEW news?



Remember.... 3 pieces is the minimum amount of flair!

Seriously though I have never read a page or seen even a second of footage of anything related to Harry Potter. It's kids entertainment no?

me neither, although once when I still had my pirated satellite, I was drunk and stopped on Harry Potter for some reason on ppv and they were in a life sized chess game. That's as much as I've ever seen. It's aimed at kids but some adults like it too I guess.

What kind of adukts enjoy children's programming?

well in some isolated examples, extremely intelligent ones

Oh yeah... there are those guys

Pervs and cons......

I wasn't kidding when I said J.K.Rowling was worth 1.1 Billion dollars. I've never read a line of any of her books or watch a minute of the movies but millions have. She's sold 325 million copies of Harry Potter. Cman wasn't kidding either when he said those books are under lock and key until Friday night.

pshaw, 1.1 billion is a drop on the bucket nowadays.

Book six, i stood in line. This time I think I'll just get it the next day.



i will do whatever you want...
(of course, i would do pretty much anything for CM)

I've blown that much on beer!

that's kind of a lot...I guess.

My stocks went up

Oh Im sure he wasnt

Welp Harry Potter event at Wally went off without a hitch... one bitch customer out of the 400 that showed up to get their copy.... had two pallets , got rid of one. I spear headed it .. had a trivia contest ... food... some of the crew dressed up...played the Potter Flicks on the TV's. They had a cape for me but where I am a beast it looked goofy on me so i opted for all black clothing with a celtic cross around my neck to give it that magic feel.

What made my entire evening was this young girl who came in dressed as Hermoinie. She was the only one who came dressed as any of the Potter gang as far a customers go. Her grandmother had bought her to get her book. She was a courteous patient girl. She took her pictures with all of the dressed crew and her grandmother told me while we were taking pics " She has been waiting all day to come and get her book. Her father, who is terminaly ill gave her the money to come get her book." Well I was giving out gift cards for the contest prizes and basically gave her a gift card just for putting for the effort. So she baiscally got half off her book price. It made the what little bit of pissing and moaning other folks were doing all that easier to deal with. To know that this little girl who took the time and who was such a Harry Potter fan to dress up and was going through so much in her young life, could be so well behaved. She even came up and thanked me later after she got her book.

It sounds sappy I know. But I don't give a fuck. I am a sap when it comes to getting my faith renewed in people after dealing with fucking crabastic cocksuckers on a daily basis.

She is the rose that gre from the pot of dirt!

There is still good in the world

CMan you still and always will be the Man


I got my book, only waited in line for 45 minutes after 12 and that was after I went to bike night and did some

Lining up for a book??????????????

That's not sappy. It makes me feel good when well behaved kids who are dealt a shit hand get a little something back.

And about the cape idea. You should have worn the cape and nothing else.

Reading a book??????????

I wont be buying the book , us rednecks have to wait for the DVD

Huh???



And us Aussies will just bootleg it

Yea, there were about 1000 people waiting in line at 12 when it went on sale, but I live in a rather small city.

that sounds like a plan

Well I'm not paying.... the owe me!

uhm Im not surpirsed the dirty bastards owe everyone ...

Like the Simpsons?

GREAT reply!

Did anybody end up with one of the books that was missing pages? I've heard several people had 30+ pages missing in their book.

That would suck. My book had every page and was quite entertaining for all of 2 days the first time through.

I'd scan and send you a copy but I'm not sure even with my harddrive I could find enough pictures to keep you interested in reading the whole thing

There's not enough titty pics on earth to sustain my interest in Harry Pothead

You just know someone is going to try to ride on the coattails of Harry Potters' sucess. It's like the movies; everytime some movie hits it big, there's a dozen half-assed attempts to copy it. Almost all the time they suck. I'll bet there's over a thousand writers trying to figure out why Harry Potter was so huge so they can cash in. Nobody will be able to so all those books they write are just going to be crap.

you mean Dante's Peak was just a poor mans Volcano?

Never saw Volcano and hated Dante's Peak. It was way too convoluted and unbelievable.

I was just taking the piss mate haha

What, like Home and Away?

YEAH

so what's the problem, you just get done it sooner


what do you mean? I thought the 69th Sense was far superior to the 6th Sense.

What about Forest Hump?
