Happy fun time
Aug. 3rd, 2003 11:39 pmThis is cool - a site where you can play 20 Questions against a computer. And the computer does a pretty darn good job of guessing what you're thinking of, based on your answers. Go try to confuse it by thinking of "wombat" or something. Cheers to
trilliah for linking that.
And this, this is just hilarious. I was thinking, while reading Harry Potter #5, that if I had some spare time I should catalog all the lines that sounded smutty if you took them out of context, much as I did with the 'Fellowship' and 'Two Towers' films. Well, I don't have to - other readers have done it for us, and, oh my, there are so many good ones. I can't decide what my favorite is. Some contenders:
"He was on all fours again on Snape's office floor." (536)
"Yeah, Montague tried to do us during break," said George.
"What do you mean, 'tried'?" said Ron quickly. (627)
"One more lesson like that and I might just do a Weasley." (676)
"Harry's heart began to pump very fast indeed. Defence against external penetration?" (458)
You see my dilemma.
Many thanks to
ten_fifteen for unearthing that gem.

That one wasn't too subtle at all.
