Then why the hell do you like the books and why are a member of this

Really, this is one of the most offensive posts I have ever read.

Harry to me is not boring - I love knowing what and how he thinks.  
Harry *always* comes around to doing everything - unless you count 
getting the Sorcerer's Stone, killing the Basilisk, saving Sirius, and 
escaping from Voldemort in the flesh twice as "not doing anything".  
In that case, I can't argue.
I find Harry charming, talented, smart, friendly, polite, respectful, 
interesting, and so damned sexy I actually actively wish I could be a 
15 year old witch at Hogwarts so I could have some time with him in 
the Prefects' bathroom.  I can't get enough of him.

Sorry you hate him and wish him dead.  You can make that happen, you 
know, by putting the books away and never reading about Harry again.
