did anyone else get annoyed when hermione kept saying "it could be a girl" when referring to the half blood prince? even when it did turn out to be snape's mother's last name, it still doesn't make sense for her to keep thinking it could possibly be a girl. _________________ if peeing your pants is cool, consider me miles davis!
why would you read a name "half blood prince" and automatically say it could be a girl? that just seems like an illogical step _________________ if peeing your pants is cool, consider me miles davis!
There are no princes in the wizarding world, so Hermione automatically assumed it was a last name, which it was. It could've been a girl. I find it humorously ironic that Hermione thought it was a girl, but it was actually Snape. It wonder what he would do if he found out Hermione thought HBP was a girl! _________________

there aren't any princes in america, either, but enough people walk around calling themselves that. why when you read somethning that you think is a nickname that has an obviously male word in it would you think female at all? it just seems like a very illogical jump for someone who is all about logic _________________ if peeing your pants is cool, consider me miles davis!
She only just suggested it could be a girl. The thing was, she was right. Eileen Prince was a girl and it was most likely her text book before she gave it to her son. The handwriting in it was girly, too.
The H alf-Blood Prince turned out to be a boy, but Hermion e was right in considering the gender to be a female because it led her to the right answer. If she thought it to be a boy, she might not have stumbled upon Snape's mother's maiden name.
She looked outside the box... she didnt' just assume it was a nickname, she looked at the words from every angle. _________________ ^made by Fiendfyre
if you saw "this book belongs to the queen of hearts" what does your brain initially go to: male or female? _________________ if peeing your pants is cool, consider me miles davis!
Hermione did consider it to be a boy, she only just suggested it to be a girl. JKR had to have it that way because she needed to have Hermione investigate all angles.
But even when I think of Queen, I think of the music group, who were all male. _________________ ^made by Fiendfyre
I don't know if it was because she "wanted to investigate all angles" but she sure as hell pissed me off by repeating it and her Doomsday theories about how the Half Blood Prince would consume the world and kill everyone and their grand children with a fork throughout the book. It was the most annoying part in the series, for me.
P.S to whoever didn't get it: The consuming of the world with a fork part is sarcasm.
She actually thought it would be with a spoon. _________________ Fact 1: Moody rocks your socks. And mine too.

Yasmine, high five! Agreed wholeheartedly. _________________ Fact 1: Moody rocks your socks. And mine too.

I think I've commented somewhere else in this forum about that. The last two books she really annoyed me, and how she wouldn't listen to Harry about the fact
Spoiler:
that Ron saved his life.
Jeez, you can be mad about what he did but at least be grateful for what he did in return! _________________ Yas and Simmy - putting Luna on catwalks since 2008! If I had an otter I would call it Harryp
This is such a idiot type thing to say. Why would you think that the Half-Blood PRINCE was a girl. I mean, come on? I read this chapter today when I was re-reading HBP. And that really really ticked me off. Annoyed. _________________
that's exactly what i'm saying. some people here seem to disagree that this is just a really illogical step to take, but i still say it is dumb. _________________ if peeing your pants is cool, consider me miles davis!
Maybe she thought this girl was gender-confused or something (being totally serious). _________________ Yas and Simmy - putting Luna on catwalks since 2008! If I had an otter I would call it Harryp
