Today, my girlfriend donated most of my book collection because she got me a Kindle for Christmas. Some were signed, including my Harry Potters. FML

WHY do people think it's okay to get rid of things that do not belong to them without the owner's consent?!

Harry potter? Proberbly time you grew up anyway! She shouldn't just get rid of your things without permission though, I would be mad at her.

Care to elaborate why taking a liking in the Harry Potter series is a sign than one must 'grow up'?

23 - It's "proberbly" time you learned how to spell correctly.

Proberbly... In what universe is that even close to being right?

You can dislike an author's work without insulting their abilities. Look: "JK Rowling? Oh, she's not really my cup of tea. I'm not that into her books."

I'm not really a fan of Harry Potter. I read the books. They were all right, (at least they weren't terrible like Twilight at least), but I really didn't think they were anything special either. But even so, I can imagine how I'd feel if anyone donated all my favourite books to charity without asking me, especially the ones that are signed by my favourite authors and illustrators. You don't have to be a fan of Harry Potter to get angry at this FML, just a book lover. Or even just have a shred of consideration for someone else's possessions.

That's really, really dumb! Regardless of the fact they're signed, books still cost money on a Kindle (hence why I still have my book collection and only get new additions on Kindle) and that's assuming they're available, as not all books are! Buy her a subscription to 'Love Film' then sell her TV, DVDs and DVD player. XD
