There are some sick, SICK people out there...

Ugh! I just read/saw something on this site - YES! THIS ONE! DIARYLAND! - that really made me sick. And NO, it has nothing to do with the creator(s) of this wonderful-underful place. It has to do with some really SICK little boogers out there (some, unfortunately, not so little) who keep diaries here. *sucking in deep breath to calm self down* There are actually people out there who believe they're characters from the Harry Potter universe! AAACK! The horror! JK Rowling would pass out, bash her computer monitor in, and never log onto the internet again for as long as she lives! Oh, terrible, terrible!

People - THESE ARE BOOK CHARACTERS! Please get a life! I can't believe there are people who pass themselves off as actual Hogwarts students and faculty members. And my mom thinks I'M obsessed with Ninja Turtles! I don't go around saying stuff like: "Hi. I'm April O'Neil and I'm from NYC. My friends are four human-sized mutant turtles, a giant old rat, and a crazy vigilante that likes to sport a hockey mask." Puh-LEASE! I like TMNT, I admit it. I like Rowling's books too. But I keep very much in mind that that's all they are: BOOKS. Good books, mind you, even best-selling books - but BOOKS, nonetheless. I do NOT go around trying to provide cheap entretainment by posing as Draco Malfoy, or pretending that I'm any good at Quidditch. Grow UP, people. I think you all should go visit your ol' pal the psychiatrist.

Even if those people really DO believe they are wizards and not merely Muggles, they have then broken a couple of rules already.

1) Wizards in JK Rowlings BOOKS do not let ordinary people know of their existance. So those people yelling it out throughout cyberspace that they are the Weasley twins or something are already breaking serious laws and the Ministry of Magic would have already tracked them all down and had them punished.

2) Wizards don't use computers. They don't use ANY type of Muggle technology, not even cars (not normal ones anyway). So all those people claiming to be Harry Potter - LIARS! Most wizards don't even know HOW to turn on a computer, much less use it. This would be the case, of course, IF THEY EXISTED OUTSIDE THE BOOK AT ALL!!!! Which we all know they DON'T.

3) According to the book, these are dark times for magic-users. The Dark Lord is up and about, and I doubt he would go around hollering his evil plans for all of us Internet users to read.

4) Oh, yeah. I almost forgot - THEY'RE CHARACTERS FROM A BOOK!!!! THEY'RE NOT REAL! THEY'RE FANTASY! Look it up in any bookstore; all the HP books are classified under FANTASY. Get a life, people. You all make me sick. And I bet people go around doing this with characters from OTHER books too, like Rice's "Vampire Chronicals." Sheesh. What loosers.

In conclusion, I will vow never EVER to surf through the diary listings again. My poor brain has already suffered enough. To all those authors out there, I'm truly sorry that stupid people sabotage your characters the way they do. Mr. Eastman and Mr. Laird, you know I'd never do that to you guys! I'll leave the TMNT story-writing to you and you alone.

Now, please excuse me. I must go and meet with all my other fellow wizards at Hogwarts 'cause we're gonna go have tea with Hagrid, Master Splinter, Superman and Buddah. *mutters under breath: "Give me a friggin' BREAK..."*
