It's not easy being a woman with an opinion on the internet, but J.K. Rowling doesn't seem to have any problem at all dealing with the idiots, trolls and haters. Her Twitter feed is bursting with proof of how she's just the best, and if you haven't been following along, here's a little peek at some of her best tweets. Love!

(If any of these don't make sense, tap the image and read the entire convo.)

1. In Response to a Mysoginistic Troll

.@sjosiah0 The Internet doesn’t just offer opportunities for misogynistic abuse, you know. Penis enlargers can also be bought discreetly.

@ChrisDarroch2 and you can't spell "Slytherin".

7. She Didn't Think Madonna's Tumble Was Funny, Either
