Hogwarts Exposed Chapter 24 part 1

[szaleniec1000]

Or, the last chapter. The last chapter of the first fic before things get even worse, that is.

Hahahahahaha... this chapter. You're in for a lot of fun, szaleniec. A lot of fun...

[szaleniec1000]

I've only skim-read ahead, and only to confirm some of the things that get revealed. (With the author's love of disembodied voices that aren't identified despite the ostensible POV character knowing full well who they are - Wrong as the Great One and Snape as Ginny's bit on the side, for instance - I can't help wondering if he thought he was writing a screenplay.) I'm going into this chapter perhaps 90% blind.

Heheheheh... hahahahaha... HAHAHHAHAHA! Look at me! Tiny little Wheatley's become- oh, sorry, Portal 2 flashback.

I wasn't talking about the writing. I'm talking about the content. Are you ready for villains monologuing at their enemies' wedding? Obscure Canadian political parties' views being aggressively advertised? A wedding so American that Barrack Obama/Rick Perry/Mitt Romney/George W Bush (whichever American you hate more) could've written a more British wedding than Neil can? Or even more naked tickling surprises and heavy-handed foreshadowing? Because you're in luck!

Sounds like a perfect storm of fail. A fitting end to this fic, I guess.

Obscure Canadian political parties? I think I missed that in Das Sporking.

Probably the nudist party mentioned on the TVTropes page that wants to make private parts destigmatised. The same focus on private parts that Neil has and mainstream nudists generally don't, in other words.

I don't really get why they want to make private parts destigmatized.

The private bits of a man and woman are meant to be shared with their intimate ones, as a symbol of utter trust and love between the two of them.

By destigmatizing them, you're encouraging promiscuity and indecency...

[szaleniec1000]

The strange thing is that the author would probably be one of the first people to sympathise with that view if some of his filibusters about the nature of sex are anything to go by, yet also goes for the "private bits shouldn't be private" argument which as you say isn't exactly compatible.

There's a difference between discouraging overreaction to wardrobe malfunctions and outright legalizing a person exposing their assets to the world for all to see.
