In which Harry is somewhat indiscriminately randy, Snape struggles manfully to be completely oblivious, Hermione is a connoisseur of printed-out Internet porn, and Draco exits the closet dramatically and demands Resolution of Sexual Tension. This is your TPP chat room on crack—fic.

This penname was founded by a band of intrepid loonies who got together during the early days of the TPP chat room (and bonded further during the dark days of WIKKT chat's exile to the TPP chatroom). Together, we generated an idea for a fic so ridiculous, no one of us alone was willing to take credit for it. It's amazing what mischief a bunch of alleged adults can get up to under the influence of no alcohol whatsoever. Pennames of individual authors will be posted here in alphabetical order, if and when they elect to admit their involvement in the project.
It will continue to serve as a penname for any collaborations born in the TPP chatroom and a beacon of comedy in an angsty fandom.

ahahaha that had me laughing through the whole story!~ It was HILARIOUS!
Response from Mad_Chatters_Tea_Party (Author of A Fanfic Reader's Unauthorized Guide to the Unconventional <i>Hogwarts: A History</i>)
On behalf of all the Mad Chatters, I thank you kindly! We shall endeavor to continue to provide crack of the highest quality to the fanfic community. (And if a more lurid-sounding statement on the subject is possible, I'd need to have had a few more drinks in order to make it...)
The Daughter strode confidently into the room and stood behind Mother's chair with a knowledgible smirk on her face. "Let's see, what were those mommy comments you are so fond of making? " She approaches the computer chair and starts the obligatory neck massage...Oh yes! "Are you laughing or crying?""Your're having too much fun in here!" "Be careful, you're going to hurt yourself!"I could not mount the usual scathing retort, I have a mouthful of lemonade threatening to spew forth at any second and it is getting hard to breathe.

PURE GENIUS!!!! :) oh the cliches of fandom!

On behalf of the crew, thanks very much! (Where would we be as a fandom without our cliches? :D )

Cracktastic, indeed. I should have minded the food/drink warning, though. *shakes head mournfully*Hilarious! Thanks for a great read!

I like bell bottoms. Was Severus wearing the hip hugger style with a wide belt to keep them up? A shiny polyester shirt with a collar so pointed that he could impale someone on the tips if he turned really fast?Sigh. You've added a new dimension to the man of my dreams.Couldn't you go back and kill Ron? That would make this story perfect.You are absolutely right about how that OTHER BOOK got written.Thank you for brightening up my day.

LOL snapemylove says you're right on all counts about Snape's wardrobe. Which we researched as thoroughly as the origins of certain popular novels. :D
Thank you very much for such a cheering and charming review! (All except the bit about Ron, 'cause I still think he's all right. LOL)

Mwa ha ha, the addition of the Potter Pals' infamous song was brilliant!

Despite the warnings that were very kindly posted before each chapter, I found myself spewing Diet Dr. Pepper through my nose after reading the line, "Their worries made him angst over dead parents and dead friends and dead pets and dead many things…" I have resolved to suffer severe thirst until I finish reading this story.

Thank you kindly for reviewing! We shall put Potter to work on a way to prevent dehydration in people forced to forswear liquids due to her lines. ^_^

Sweet ending, I loved the Rita-Voldemort conversations best.
Response from Mad_Chatters_Tea_Party (Author of A Fanfic Reader's Unauthorized Guide to the Unconventional <i>Hogwarts: A History</i>)
*blink* Honey, we love you. Rita/Voldie=sweet? That's got to be a whole new level of madness! ^_^
I laughed and loved my way through every word of this! OMG what a masterpiece.I especially liked the references to ff.net! I have searched (and occasionally found) a gem, and have thrown away quite a few pages of yuck writing as well.Thank you for the fun read!
Response from Mad_Chatters_Tea_Party (Author of A Fanfic Reader's Unauthorized Guide to the Unconventional <i>Hogwarts: A History</i>)
You are most welcome! Thank you for the review!(We almost left out the potshots at ffnet--it's like poking fun at celebrities, much too easy...)
I kind of wish luna had a more extensive conversation with the narrator. what a delightful load of crack!
Response from Mad_Chatters_Tea_Party (Author of A Fanfic Reader's Unauthorized Guide to the Unconventional <i>Hogwarts: A History</i>)
I think the entire world could do with more extensive Luna. Perhaps in another crackfic...Thanks very much for reviewing!
Well done! A brilliant read! Made me laugh when nothing else could today and when I'm ill it's certainly what I need!Thank you, you wonderful women. I hope you conspire to write another fic in the future....maybe Hermione makes the cock up of all cock ups and births a 'mary-sue' a demon child that must be exterminated!gah....I blame the medication....xxxxxx
Response from Mad_Chatters_Tea_Party (Author of A Fanfic Reader's Unauthorized Guide to the Unconventional <i>Hogwarts: A History</i>)
We are pleased to be of assistance, on crummy days or any day. Thanks so much for reviewing!It's well-attested (though not necessarily in medical/psychiatric literature) that chocolate-covered Crackfic can serve as a temporary substitute for many common pharmaceuticals. :)
That was funny. I especially loved the sequined bell bottoms.
Response from Mad_Chatters_Tea_Party (Author of A Fanfic Reader's Unauthorized Guide to the Unconventional <i>Hogwarts: A History</i>)
Thanks! The love of the bell bottoms shall be passed on to ease the Professor's ego. :)
Just having a nice quiet cuppa tea while I recover from the madness! Didn't fall off chair this time, used a sticking charm! :)
Response from Mad_Chatters_Tea_Party (Author of A Fanfic Reader's Unauthorized Guide to the Unconventional <i>Hogwarts: A History</i>)
A wise precaution! Thanks for the review, m'dear!
*Sporfle!* OMG, can't breathe again. This time I remembered to hold off drinking water until after I'd finished the chapters, though. Great, great work you guys. Craptastically funny!
Response from Mad_Chatters_Tea_Party (Author of A Fanfic Reader's Unauthorized Guide to the Unconventional <i>Hogwarts: A History</i>)
As long as the Epilogue failed to suck and everyone survived reading it, we're happy. Thanks for the review!
"He'll be the fantasy of every doomed, loser-loving, soap opera-watching housewife on Earth" Damn, you've almost got my number, but I hate soaps and also have a (sucky) job. Other than that, guilty.Cracktastic epilogue, would have lol'd, but just put the baby to bed, so just had to settle for snorting a lot. Loved the Rita/Voldie exchange, such inspired lunacy, it's a wonder you guys aren't wearing those special jackets with the extra long sleeves!Excellent fic, many thanks!!!!!!!!

Love mirror!Voldie and the bell-bottoms! :-D
Author's Response: Thank you! (Snapemylove/the Professor wasn't keen on either of them, but I think that she/he managed them both wonderfully!)
Yay! They finally made it. Poor inexperienced and unimaginative dears, lol.
Response from Mad_Chatters_Tea_Party (Author of A Fanfic Reader's Unauthorized Guide to the Unconventional <i>Hogwarts: A History</i>)
*nods sagely* If there is some sort of murky moral in all this, it's probably, "If you're going to 'do it by the book,' make certain the book you choose is not fanfiction."Once again, thank you for reviewing! Please enjoy the Epilogue! (We can only ask nicely and promise it won't suck!)

I'm loving this! I'd like to point out favorite parts, but reviewing on my phone is not conducive to such a thing. And anyway, there are far too many funny moments to be able to list them properly without just re telling the whole chapter.
Response from Mad_Chatters_Tea_Party (Author of A Fanfic Reader's Unauthorized Guide to the Unconventional <i>Hogwarts: A History</i>)
This chapter is the personal favorite of all the Mads who worked on it--being practically a chat transcript, it brings back many happy memories of getting weirdly creative across four time zones averaging 2 AM. Thank you kindly for reviewing! Hope you enjoy the rest! (Artist's rendering of the Mad Chatters at work)

Continues to crack me up! I have no concerns that by the end we will have sufficiently covered every cliche.

We had a list.

How did I miss this?! Sometimes parody wants to be funny and it's not. This is clever, and is cracking me up. How long before Snape gets sucked into the fanfic obsession now sweeping the castle? Off to find out ...

Mad Chatters Tea Party was founded on three things--the first of which was the assertion that crackfic ought to be (as much as possible) funny. [There is considerable debate as to what the other two are, but they are believed to include some combination of sleep deprivation, sugar, the importance of dracontia always being right, and alcohol.] Good to hear we're getting #1 right--thank you for reviewing!

OMG! I LOVVVVVE this story! It's so hard to be inconspicuous in the office, however, when you're hiding your giggles behind your hand. Absolutely hilarious! Can't wait for more! Sqweeee!
Response from Mad_Chatters_Tea_Party (Author of A Fanfic Reader's Unauthorized Guide to the Unconventional <i>Hogwarts: A History</i>)
LOL Thanks, luv! Work progresses on Chapter 4 and the Epilogue--we shall try our best to reduce the amount of time you're obliged to wait for more!
LOL!!!!!!!! damn! This is funny. I've woke the baby now. You guys need professional help, you is all crazy!
Response from Mad_Chatters_Tea_Party (Author of A Fanfic Reader's Unauthorized Guide to the Unconventional <i>Hogwarts: A History</i>)
Alas, since we make no money from this, we can't afford professional help. (I realized belatedly that my BA in psychology actually constituted my occupying the incorrect end of the microscope, so to speak...)
But reviews are most therapuetic--thank you for medicating the writers!!
*sends a Jarvey to sing the baby back to sleep*
*chortle* What the hell are you guys smoking and where can I get some?

We're high on life, luv! And we're happy to share (via fic!)
