Yeah... some guy from Ohio killed himself after over hearing a spoiler to the movie that comes out tonight at midnight. He left a suicide note saying that he no longer had a reason to live. Wow......

any avid harry potter fan would have read the book and known the plot already, or atleast anyone who cares enough to kill themselves over it

A spoiler... like, as in he hasn't read the books?  Dude wasn't even a real fan, what a loser.

I get what you are saying, but the movies don't follow the books 100%. There are a few things added/changed.

Haha "Ms. Clovis said that she hoped Mr. Ralston's death would cause federal authorities to tighten the flow of Harry Potter plot information to prevent similar tragedies from taking place.

you guys realize Borowitz is a comedian, right? in fact, it says so below the story.

so, everyone saying the guy in the story is an idiot or whatever for not being able to read... well, you're the idiots.

"When Jude got that vanity license plate that said 'Hogwarts,' that seemed harmless enough," said Polly Clovis, who attended Model U.N. with Mr. Ralston while the two were in high school. "But when he started wearing that wizard hat around town, we really should have seen that as a cry for help."
