Scratch my head every time...

... I run across a summary consisting of "[main character] [genre] Some stuff is going to happen but that is to be expected."

I find myself pondering those with the summary of "This is the end" more.

Actually, the one that really made me go WTF was "Petunia catches Vernon and Dudley rapping Harry. What will she do now?".

Yes, because rapping somebody is such a traumatic incident. I wholly agree; I can't stand the stuff. :P

*butting in* Oh, that's nothing! To see teh real funneh, you've got to take a look at babb_chronicles's summary executions (in the comment thread). They are most hilarious! :P

If you've no desire to browse through, here's a quick taste of it:

• Shipments will be revealed later in the story to keep the air of mystery.

It kind of spoils the surprise when you hint in the summary that there's some weird cargo-smuggling ring. — gileonnen

• When Draco Malfoy intoxicates a love potion, he becomes deeply attracted to Hermione.

Draco Malfoy: so bad with girls, he gets the love potion drunk. — gileonnen

• Zombie Draco and Zombie Ginny meet under the Moon, that shimmering Peeping Tom.
Unfortunately, they didn't have a brain between them, and so both starved. — sobriquet_99

• A prophecy tells of a girl who will make Vildy fall to his knees and fail.

"I have seen it, my child: You will meet your one true love, and he will see you and love you forever, but don’t let him go down on you, not even when he offers, because he’s pants at it." — fourth_rose
