scary fans...

The number of people on my flist and IMs who are not only willing to kill, but have murder weapons and methods picked out should there be Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows spoilers outside of cuts is...well...SCARY!!!
And I think half my flist is vowing to go no internet-no news-no human interaction from the second the book comes out until they finish it...
It's so tempting to go "I READ IT! HARRY DIES!" just out of pure evilness and malice, except:
A) I'm not that malicious
B) I kinda like being liked and having people speak to me
C) I believe the death threats
D) I think most of my flist who reads the books knows that I don't(yet)
E) I'm announcing my dastardly plan here, so actually doing it would be rather pointless
(then there's the fact that actually doing such things indicates disdain for the fandom in general, which is not the case...though it does scare me)
Mmmm...yes...this is a pointless post from one watching everyone around her go psycho over it who's left just kinda going "uhm...ok..."
The real question is: Will reading my flist take half as long or twice as long next week?
note: any spoiling, copyright infringements, links to scans, etc. in comments by spammers or anyone else are going to be deleted. Just because I'm not reading it doesn't mean I'm letting anyone else ruin the experience for my flist for their own fun. This wasn't posted for 5 minutes before there was a comment like that.
