Meanwhile: Yes, I laughed

by Diane

There has been much ruckus in the Potter “shipping” communities regarding an interview J.K. Rowling did in the wake of the launch of the sixth HP book. J.K. apparently went on the record — not unkindly, as I read it — as stating that a given pairing of characters was canonical and another one wasn’t. Then there befell much weeping, wailing and gnashing of teeth on one side of the situation, and some unseemly gloating on the other side.

There have been many, many responses to all this — see fandom_wank for details — but one of the funnier ones is here:

“(JKR:) Have you ever wondered what might be accomplished by someone with eighty billion dollars and ready access to Google Maps?”
