BNF ROAST

Perhaps you were all right and maybe JKR is unethical. Her statements regarding a few things and on her website have made me reconsider my high opinion of her. Lets talk about Hero worship for a moment and how I forgot my place in this world. It's clear to me that perhaps I placed too much faith in a person I didn't know and have never met.

Here by way of fandom_wank.

I do love a good wank.

Hmmm?

Oh, I'm so sorry that you edited your post! It looked like a brief moment of almost-honesty!

I'm sorry if you're frightened that people actually disagree with you - I myself have always found it something of a challenge to put up a rational argument. After all, a thoughtful discussion where people examine their beliefs and values, explain their ideology and provide evidence in support of their arguments can be wonderfully helpful. I've certainly been known to change my mind after hearing the evidence, examining the argument, and considering my own beliefs and values in response.

BNF stands for Big Name Fan, ie a well-known fan. Let's look at this logically.
You're a fan. Check.
Other people in the same fandom who aren't personal friends know who you are. Check.
Just because you're more infamous than famous doesn't stop you being a BNF.
