Today, I had some fun by joining a Harry Potter forum and making a thread saying it's all for little kids. When I checked back later, my post had been edited into me tearfully coming out of the closet, and some guy had said he'd passed my details on to Anonymous. FML

Today, I was going to a Harry Potter convention since I love the books so much. On my drive there I got lost, and it only got worse when my car broke down. Since I'd forgotten my phone, I tried to hitch a ride. I stood on the side of a road for two hours dressed like Ron Weasley. FML

Today, my mother told my boyfriend a cute story about me when I was little. The one where my cousin and I were caught pooping in a urinal in the church basement. FML

Today, I found out that two kids were able to, without much effort, convince my 16-year-old daughter that her friend's house was used to smuggle out Jews during WWII. His house was built in 2007. We also live in America. FML

Today, my 5-year-old son made a drawing of our living room, with the addition of an apparition, and the text, "I can see you. Daddy doesn't see you. Who are you?" FML

Today, I googled myself in preparation for my upcoming job interview. Turns out there's a girl on Twitter with my name and age who tweets nonstop about getting wasted and being on probation. She won't make her profile private. FML

Whoever did that is a genius. Kudos to you, defending the internet against malicious trolls.

Why would you even consider belittling something someone else enjoys? Ydi, jerkoff.

How could you do that? D: No one makes fun of Harry potter! But, if you do plan on posting a forum on a Twilight Fan lovers page, by all means be my guest.

I really hope you were not expecting sympathy from anyone for this. You deserved this, hands down.

Wow, we got some bored people or anti-Harry Potter fans lurking around. All the comments that are pro-Potter are getting thumbs down. Have fun with that, whoever you are.

That proves you don't mess with Harry Potter fans. If you think it's for little kids, fine whatever. But don't be an idiot and put it on a pro Harry Potter forum. Go put that on a Twilight forum, the twitards will worship you.

You don't mess with Potter fans. YDI. Quit trying to stir the cauldron if you can't handle the ingredients. ;)

I'm willing to bet that most Harry Potter fans are adults and have grown up with the series. I went to an IMAX midnight showing and didn't see any kids.
