Hi! Want some pain?

Three bits of summaries, all from the same updates email:

- Then Oya Potter tells her story finally and Harry has to decide how he feels about her.

- A transfer student comes to Hogwarts and is sorted in Slytherin and Gryffindor. She catches the eyes of both Harry and Draco but is she really who she seems? And if she has never been to Hogwarts before why does everyone seem to know her?

- What will Krystal Montague do when everything that means anything to her is taken away from her?

I'm torn between "Oya" and "Krystal Montague" for worst name. Oya sort of amuses me, as I'm pronouncing it like the Kool Aid Man might 'Ooooooh-yeah!'.

I read Oya sort of like Oy Vey, with similar reason. And, what's with the identical twin transfer students? Or does she just have a split personality?

And, thanks for the code fragment! If I get inspired I might hug some more squids.

Those are some of the worst summaries I've ever read. Andthat includes the one for the ultimate Mary-Sue fic of all time, which has to be Fallon Adams

I wish I had started paying attention to bad summaries long ago, instead of just skimming by them. All that amusement missed!

Oya is a goddess. Here is more about her (http://www.goddess.com.au/goddess/oya.htm). :-)

Hee! Thanks for the info, that actually makes this worse!

Hehehhehe!

Very amusing summaries. But there´s just one thing that really makes me shudder. Montague is a male canon character, a Slytherin Chaser. (and I play him in the KR RPG). Gods, it hurts to see that name being used for a bloody MS. Krystal. Ugh! ;-)

Hee! Maybe he got married behind your back? ;)

Speaking of Hey Kool-Aid! the Kool-Aid guy makes an appearance in the l33t Romeo and Juliet.

I actually *remember* those commercials so it's cool to see someone else does too. That and "How About a Nice Hawai'ian Punch? Fruit-jui-cy!"

I haven't seen the movie in years, but wasn't it in an ad on a TV?

That and "How About a Nice Hawai'ian Punch? Fruit-jui-cy!"

Yep! That one, too! I actually had a little board game based on it, too. You made your marker out of clay, and if you lost there was this big plastic fist to smush it with.

Oya is a pretty fun name, but I have an Asian coworker whose name is Woo. Now *that's* a fun name; whenever I say hi to him (he's a nice guy, so I always say hi when I walk by... Wow, I really rhymed that well), I can't just go, "Hey Woo". I *have* to go "Hey... *Wooooo!!!*" It's such a fun name! Everytime you say it, you're having fun!

Wow, Woo would be a great name! Then everytime someone went 'woo woo!', I'd grin!
