Ok, look. I love Snape. I think he's hilarious and awesome, and frankly, Alan Rickman could read the telephone book and make it sexy. But some people are taking this shit a bit too far, this was on today's texts from last night:
(201): My friend is getting herself a tramp stamp that says "property of the half blood prince".
Unlike the girl a few weeks ago getting tattooed with the Boondock Saints' prayer, this is just sad. No awesomeness. 1st off, the saints' prayer is awesome in and of itself, (So we shall flow a river forth to thee, and teeming with souls shall it ever be - a thousand times better than hail Mary full of grace) and secondly, it does not say you are property of a fictional character. Unlike books, people are not property. I get the reference. It's not like I don't understand. Unfortunately, this is one of those things where the more you get it, the more pathetic your tattoo becomes. Well, I suppose, there's a moment of improvement when someone realizes that the half-blood prince is Snape and not Potter, but many people won't even get that far. So you're getting a tramp stamp which announces you as property of a fictional character and where many people will incorrectly assume said character is an annoying 17 yr old emo boy. One day, when you are 50 (actually, probably long before then) you will massively regret this.
