Ah, fanfiction.net, thou art so vexing...

Y'know, I know that ffnet has its problems.

But still, it is wonderful to have a community so large where I can upload fics so easily. And sometimes I do find interesting fics there.

Today's message (I am not making this up):

November 24th, 2004 -- We have confirmed a serious bug which corrupted many entries dated pre-2003 during our last upgrade. A recovery process has been started to resolve this issue. Please bare with us as FanFiction.Net return to read-only access.

*sigh* Sad as it is that many entries were mangled, it is even sadder that it encourages yet more rampant misspelling of "bear".

Weird thesaurus moment.

I am finishing up chapter 57, and was looking up different words for anger, when I came upon this portion of the entry...

burst, explosion, paroxysm, storm, rage, fury, desperation; violence; fire and fury; vials of wrath; gnashing of teeth, hot blood, high words.

So beautiful, this entry. I love my old copy of Roget's.

Honestly, there should be a little illustration of Severus next to it, preferably holding vials of wrath.
