   ...to fuck with out heads, yeah, no doubt about it. “Voldemort is   
   playing a very clever game" and so is Rowling.   
      
   *NOT* How stupid does she think her readers are? DH is an 800 page "go   
   fuck yourself" slap in the face not counting the cartoonish   
   characters. Counting them it's a "go fuck yourself with a dry corn   
   cob".
