"I will not tell you the ending."

[powerboy]

I do not care, if I here the ending or not. When I do it, if I do, I would have forgotten about it anyway.

I love the "He dies, she dies, everybody dies" line from Heavy Metal.

Other fake endings include the ever popular "it was all a dream" and something completely out of character, such as "only Hagrid and Draco survive and marry eacy other to live happily every after." (yeah, try to wrap your minds around that metal image, why don'cha)

I just make up random things when people ask me how the book ends.

"I can't believe that Ginny and Snape were having an affair, and ran off to get married!!"

[Pagan]

I got naughty and looked it up on Wikipedia. I had already figured out a lot anyway....having watched one too many soap operas over the years! But I'm still reading the book.

Oh, my GM had a real nasty streak when he was making his monster tables. Every time someone looked over his shoulder, he'd up the hit dice of the mob by one. The only ones who would survive the encounters were those who tried to stop the others.

One time, the first encounter was a Great Wyrm Red Dragon. And as he said, "This is the easy fight."

[Bloodsoul]

Ooh, I took on seven Great Wyrm Gold Dragons once with just my level 24 Archmage; playing a goddess is fun! ^_^

All of this is making me want to read The Princess Bride and The Modern Prometheus finally; I can't wait to see how those end! *shifty look*

I've heard "Rocks fall, everyone dies" many many times, mostly in gaming-themed webcomics and in the Movies in 15 Minutes books/blogs. I also have heard it used when people would discuss how HP would end--JKR would get sick of everything and just say "Rocks fall, everyone dies!!!"

[CSR Kim]

"Rocks fall. Everyone dies."

I know I've read that in Something Positive (http://www.somethingpositive.net)...didn't know it came from anything other than that.

Scott suggested I use it in response to what happens in the end of HP7

[Aldous]

I like to use characters from other books to tell people an ending of movie/book. My favorite is probably "Arsene Lupin came and stole the Holy Grail, and the world exploded, leaving only Character A and Character B, and a chipmunk to populate the world. Chipmunk Children."

Spoil away! I stayed up till 1:00am last night finishing it. I get up at 6:30 for work. I am .
Highlight here if you want to read more --> I think I'll go to bed now...nighty night! :b

"If you refuse, you die; she dies; everybody dies!"

- Heavy Metal, 1981


A very oft-used gaming line!!!

i LOVE heavy metal and den is one of my faves. strange how not many of my friends have seen it, they are so missing out.

i havent been asked the ending of the book. mostly its oh your reading it... what chapter are you at... ohh well ill just keep my mouth shut then (either said by me or person asking) either way we werent at the same point. i just finished it tonight, it took me longer than i wanted to read it.

[ahanix1989]

I'm sure I'd go for something awful yet unbelievable, such as "The castle was demolished to make way for a new highway"

SC: Do you know what happens at the end of Harry Potter 7?
Me: It ends in a Period.

I like that! Too bad all the hoopla's over now, I can think of some good comebacks.
"Darth Vader was Harry Potter's father."
"Hermione walks into a blue Police Box and gets transported across time and space."
"Ron gets blasted out into space and now has to watch cheesy movies with two robot friends."
"Grawp becomes the Prima Donna for the Royal Ballet."

This one you'd have to plan ahead with your coworkers, and get a stage knife and fake blood:

CUSTOMER: Hi, you read the latest Harry Potter yet? How's it end?
COWORKER: Well, you see, Voldemort and Harry--
(You jump in, violently "stab" coworker, with blood spraying everywhere as coworker screams and "dies")
YOU: Darn it, that's the third coworker I've had to kill to keep from revealing the secret! Don't you know how hard good help is to find?!
(After customer screams and runs out the door, your coworker gets up and heads to the restroom to clean up and change clothes.)
