They were the last people you'd expect to be involved in anything strange or mysterious, because they just didn't hold with such nonsense.

Ari (Head in a Book) (thestarsincline) | 2864 comments Mr. Dursley was the director of a fi rm called Grunnings


Ari (Head in a Book) (thestarsincline) | 2864 comments which
made drills. He was a big, beefy man with hardly any neck, although he did have a very large mustache. Mrs. Dursley was thin
and blonde and had nearly twice the usual amount of neck


mary (betty’s version) | 26975 comments idec i'm doing it anyway

i don't like hp bc: jkr is a piece of shit, i didn't watch the movies until after i knew that so it reflected my view on the movies, the ONLY asian character is named cho chang like come on, i was like 15 when i watched it and if i read the books at 11 i probably would've loved them but i kinda grew out of it, and, also, i need to say it again bc duh: jkr fucking sucks

thank you good night

yeah i agree with that
however, artistic expression needs to be separated from opinions (at least, for me) so i'm talking from the standpoint of just the story content which is spectacular and the movies are meh
books are spectacular as i said

well you're explaining why you don't like her so much, her stupid views don't have anything to do with the actual books
but i agree, it was also lacking representation


Ari (Head in a Book) (thestarsincline) | 2864 comments Mmmm


Ari (Head in a Book) (thestarsincline) | 2864 comments But this was written in the 90s/2000s, totally different time period.

yeah yeah yeah BUT how tf do you separate the art from the artist when there's evidence of her opinions IN HER WORK

exactly
i agree with mary, but she's just going on shallow surface-level characteristics, which isn't a problem necessarily, but i'm referencing the actual story whilst overlooking social issues

but she still thinks the same now
and there are plenty of books from the 90s that aren't homophobic
JUST LOOK AT PERKS!! WRITTEN IN 1999 WITH A GAY SIDE CHARACTER

i give up

yes her views indeed do have something to do with the books/movies
at least for me they do, considering i watched it after knowing about her being a piece of shit
it affected my opinion a lot

so that just reflects your inability to separate that from the content
and the movies are not an adequate representation of the story she crafted anyway

(im kidding ofc we just have different ways of perceiving art)

mary (betty’s version) | 26975 comments i'm sorry

the dursley's had a small son called dudley and in their opinion there was no finer boy anywhere. the dursley's had everything they wanted but they also had a secret and their greatest fear was that somebody would discover it. they didn't think they could bear it if anyone found out about the potters. mrs potter was mrs dursley's sister, but they hadn't met for several years; in fact, mrs dursley pretending she didnt have a sister because her sister and her good for nothing husband were as undursleyish as possible to be. the dursleys shuddered to think what the neighbors would say if the potters arrived in the street. the dursleys knew that the potters had a small son too, but they had never even seen him. this boy was another good reason for keepng the potters away, they didnt want dudley mixing with a child like that.

should i finish chapter 1 or no? i have it all memorized
