Great Zinger from J.K. Rowling to FoxDrone Tomi

[Pluvious]

Lobs across the Atlantic !
Lobs, across the sky...

[TygrBright]

1. I believe in boxing terminology that is known as a "kayo" n/t

[robbob]

28. KO

=knock out

[ADX]

[Liberal In Texas]

3. Brilliant n/t

[bucolic_frolic]

4. The Right seeks to weaken us with gibberish

so the Russians can better control our minds.

Pushback is always in order. Where you see it, tee off!

[ffr]

5. SLAM!!

[Cha]

50. Dunk!

That is freaking Brilliant! I guess why J K Rowling gets the big buck$!

[FailureToCommunicate]

53. And one!

[ffr]

58. hahaha

[cp]

6. Yes!

[saidsimplesimon]

7. So true, I love her books

I read all the Harry Potter tales to stay in touch with my grandchildren.

[Perseus]

8. Tomi Lahren confirms all the blond jokes

I used to think the blond jokes were unfair, but I see where those who made them up did not make them up, they just knew someone like Tomi Lahren, my goodness, she is "stupid as stupid does".

[lame54]

13. The bleach is seeping into her brain

[GeoWilliam750]

44. Please do not associate Tomi Lahren with blondes

We natural blondes are kind, gentle, warm-hearted people. Looking at photos of her, there appears to be a reason to have doubts about her apparent hair colour.

[IrishEyes]

49. Thank you. I'm a blond.

I don't want to be put in the same category with this idiot.

[lastlib]

46. (I just wish she would go to the drive-in....

...and see "Closed For The Winter"......and freeze to death.)

[docgee]

9. Uh oh... Trumpanzees don't know what sarcasm is.

Now they all think rump killed bin laden.

[Fritz Walter]

19. They already believe that 9-11 occurred on President Obama's watch

Because Agolf Twittler told them so.

They don’t have to think. It’s too hard for them; gives them headaches. It’s so much easier to be led around...

[geardaddy]

29. LOL @ Agolf Twitler!

I'm going to steal that!

[Leith]

10. Ms. Rowling Overestimates the Intelligence of Tomi's Readers

They're going to point to her tweet and claim that tRump ordered bin Laden's death and that Obama walked in dressing rooms full of naked women and girls.

[rurallib]

11. a battle of wits and poor Tomi forgot her weapon

or more likely never had one.

Trump's only dedicated to one thing: Trump. And he thanks idiots like Tomi who make it easier for him.

[Hekate]

12. Once again: Jo Rowling knows Voldemort and his Death Eaters when she sees him. Fascism, too. nt

[calimary]

18. Indeed. She knows what real evil is.

She’s uniquely qualified to identify and fight this real-life Dark Wizard.

Where are Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, and most of the Weasleys when we need them?

[Raster]

21. Now, now, Percy eventually came to his senses...

...and was on the right side of good at the Battle of Hogwarts.

[calimary]

45. Yeah finally. He took the long way there

through the trump - I mean Voldemort - detour. And one of the twins was lost, too, during the final battles.

[Raster]

52. He took the long way home...

[NoMoreRepugs]

14. Dimwit Tomi brings a broken slingshot to an F16 fight.

[sandensea]

15. Wave that magic wand, J.K.!

[NewJeffCT]

16. JK Rowling casts Sectumsempra

for the win

for those who don't know Harry Potter:
Pronunciation: sec-tum-SEMP-rah
Description: A dark spell that creates large, blood-oozing gashes on the subject as if said subject had been "slashed by a sword". Invented by Severus Snape.

http://harrypotter.wikia.com/wiki/List_of_spells#S

[Ilsa]

40. Only Snape knows: Vulnera SanenturVulnera SanenturVulnera Sanentur. nt

[jayschool2013]

17. The sad part

The sad part is, that if you gave Trumpers this multiple-choice quiz:

Which president ordered the successful assassination of Osama bin Laden?
A. Barack Obama
B. Donald J. Trump


85 percent would get it wrong. At least 85 percent.

They refuse to acknowledge reality.

[Scurrilous]

20. LOL

[DavidDvorkin]

22. Great retort, as always from her, but I wish it didn't contain a grammatical error

I'm quibbling, I know, but it's distracting.

[Blecht]

24. And I thought I was the only one

(See my post below.)

[Blecht]

23. I bet a writer of her stature is cringing when she sees her misuse of "whom" in her tweet

Even the best of us make mistakes.

Still, it's a great tweet!

[DavidDvorkin]

26. Maybe she didn't write the tweet herself

In which case, I wonder whom wrote it.

[Pluvious]

32. I see what you did there !! (and it hurtz). nt.

[Pluvious]

31. Trying to understand the formula...

Please excuse my ignorance, as I'm a tech guy, not a writer

But I wanted to better understand the correct usage.

Reading this page, several times heh, leads me to think "whom" is correct...

https://www.grammarbook.com/grammar/whoVwhom.asp

Does the he/him method indicate this test:
"amongst us is him" not "is he."

I'm so confused !!

[RVN VET71]

34. OK, you lured me in. Here it is:

"Among us" is a prepositional phrase, so "us", as the object of the preposition "among" is appropriate, instead of "we".

The predicate is -- bear with me now because grammar is as tedious as you probably thought -- ". . . can forget."

The subject of that predicate is "Who."

Want more? I know you don't, but I can't help myself: The prepositional phrase "among us" acts as an adjective modifying, or further describing, the noun "who" which, as the subject of the predicate, is in the nominative case.

Finally, Ms Rowling almost certainly let slip the grammatical error because of the subtle brain-draining vibrations given out by the idiot to whom she was responding.

[Pluvious]

41. Wow, I need an aspirin now !! Thanks for your time :). nt.

[dflprincess]

43. I can never keep that straight

and, apparently, neither can the grammar check in Word. Many times I've tried out a sentence with both "who" and "whom" and either way it tells me everything is okay. (Or maybe that rule is too hard to program?)

[aeromanKC]

25. 15 year old Pageant Contestants

Trump is a Pedo.

[DFW]

27. A battle of wits presumes that both sides have them

This is, in Ms. Lahren's case, an erroneous presumption.

[dalton99a]

30. .

[Crutchez_CuiBono]

55. Bwahahaha.

He was washed up.....on a beach in Arica, but "I found him, and he is restored."
Osama 'Q' Laden (nee Bin).

[Liberalagogo]

33. Tomi seems to have a lot of anger about gender

Odd, since she has a MAN's name.

Awww...Tommy, sorry, Tomi,....is that a sore spot?

[TheBlackAdder]

35. Yeah, that's why Trump just surrendered to the Taliban and is giving them a territory to get strong.

[spanone]

36. Thank You Ma'am

[FakeNoose]

37. K & R for J.K. Rowling!

[FailureToCommunicate]

54. One of my favorite ads ever! 'You think YOUR day sucked...'

[BlancheSplanchnik]

38. That really is a great response!

Zap!!

[dchill]

39. Tomi - cretin wannabe.

[BootinUp]

42. Trumpers are basically brain dead. Nt

[Cha]

51. So True.

[EndGOPPropaganda]

47. C Pierce calls Lahren the 'walking clothing allowance'

[dalton99a]

56. +1

[burrowowl]

48. K&R!!!!!!

[Nitram]

57. Rowling rules!

[NastyRiffraff]

59. And she hits it out of the park!

I love her AND her books.

[Vogon_Glory]

60. And The Bard Of Magical Britain raps

the blonde from Network 23 sharply on the knuckles.
