You don't have to get over it all you want.  We were just saying 
Hermione got the good sense to get over it.

No one is excusing for Snape. Geez....
Just because you have huge personal issue with Snape and can't get 
over every single nasty thing he did in the book doesn't mean there's 
some sort of huge theory behind Hermione's trust. It's IN her 
character to not let such "no big deal" thing to cloud her judgement. 
(Again, it's "no big deal" for her, the character). That's just how 
Hermione acts. And people were just simply explaining that to you. I 
don't see how that's an excusing Snape's behavior at all.

Don't you think you're getting a bit defensive about this whole issue?
Always accusing people "justifying/excusing" Snape's behavior when 
nobody is really doing it in this thread? Most people are merely 
pointing out a simple fact in the canon in regard of Hermione's 
character.

So it's alright for you to constantly repeat 
how "horrible/evil/worthless" Snape is (and borderline attacking 
Snape's fans as a matter of fact) over and over again but not others 
who have their opinions on other characters?

Nobody is saying it's on the victim to get over it. It's the fact 
that Hermione, the allege victim, get over the matter herself. Why do 
you have to get all upset over people pointing out a simple fact? You 
can over-victimize her and hate Snape anyway you want, apparently 
canon Hermione isn't a "scar-for-life" crybaby and neither would she 
let a "no big deal" thing to cloud her judgement.
