Bad spelling is funny.
Have any of you checked out Nancy Stouffer's list of "INFRINGEMENT
EXAMPLES?" You know, where she gives examples of things JKR stole
from her muggle books? I was just looking at those after reading a
couple of these spelling posts, and this one stuck out at
me: "NEVILLE LOOSES THINGS CRIES AND WHINES"
No, see, I think professional author Stouffer made a mistake here.
I've read those books a good four plus times, and I can't think of a
single example of Neville loose-ing anything.
