The first thing I saw when I came home after the gym and looked at my Google Reader was a new OMFG entry from Moye who runs a blog called Chopstix, but can't actually use chopstix chopsticks. There needs to be a word for this, kind of like how "illiterate" (Confession: I misspelled illiterate the first time around on this entry. Dunce cap. Me.) means unable to read or write, and how that brilliant German word "schadenfreude" describes the feeling of immense joy one gets at another's destruction or misfortune.
Anyways.
I immediately freaked out at the entry, like the way my female roommate freaks out whenever some "gotcha" scene occurs in a movie.
I interrupted Chris's cooking and had him come over and read the entry.
Chris's immediate response: "Good for him. GOOD for him."
What could have caused such an uproar? Harry Potter, 18 (Danielle Radcliffe is his real name but whatever, I had to look that up. He'll always be Harry Potter) is dating his fellow co-star Hermione, 17 (Emma Watson--read above parenthetical about Harry). Again, Harry Pott-ah is dating Hermione. I'm freaking out over this news for some reason and I'm not even a Harry Potter fan: I've only read one of the books, and seen only two of the films. I've sent out a transmission to Chloe--one of the biggest Harry Potter fans I know. Hopefully she'll give us her thoughts on this groundbreaking story. Mrod calling Chloe. Mrod calling Chloe. Do you hear me? Mrod calling Chloe.
I want to go back to Chris's earlier comment. I think what he's referring to (I can't ask him now because I think he's in his room listening to John Mayer) is that despite the fame, Harry Potter isn't exactly a lady killer. I'm keeping it on the straight tip, but he's no Jude Law who really is prettier than most girls. Jude Law is like the Golden Retriever of dudes. Prancing around with coiffed hair and a constant grin because life is so fucking beautiful.
On the other hand, keeping it on the legal side, Emma Watson is maturing into a very lovely conventionally attractive white chick. Of course, any guy's stock rises if he is seen with an attractive girl on his arm. So I wonder if this will propel Harry Potter from just "that famous kid who wears dorky glasses and talks about magic like those dorks with the cards and dice" level to that stage where Lenny Kravitz sees him at Gold Bar and yells "Danny! Danny! DANNY!" as he is dancing with Hot Girl.
