Rowlingo 

The language code used in Harry Potter series.

The use of too many Rowlingo steered her away from the bestseller.

Rowling 

Coined by RTGame. In reference to you-know-who.

A person who you genuinely do not want to mention the name of due to unspeakable disappointment in said individual.

Ugh he became such a Rowling after college. What even happened?

1. An feeble attempt made by story or character writers to renew interest in a dying media franchise by giving a character an uninteresting or useless trait which adds little no depth to their character, and usually used as a measure to conceal their impending failure or as an effort to bring diversity to a whitewash cast of characters.

Ironically, even though sales were peak for the series during this time, in 2007, Harry Potter writer J.K. Rowling revealed the sexuality of book character Dumbledore as being gay with an ass-pull wizard, receiving some backlash readers and fans alike arguing that she gave no real depth to his character up until the storyboarding of "Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindlewalde"

2. Taking definition 1 and following through with it because you managed to gain or already had enough traction to actually continue your franchise and write a full filling and deep story for such a character.

Example 1.
Guy 1: Bro, did you hear that news about Soldier from Overwatch being gay?
Guy 2: Yeah man, they pulled a fucking JK Rowling because they couldn't save their toxic community and gaming league, or nerf their fucking characters.
Guy 1: I stopped playing after they added that retarded hamster anyway.

Example 2.
Guy 1: Did you watch the last episode of Adventure Time?
Guy 2: Nah, I heard they pulled a JK Rowling by making Princess Bubblegum and Marceline lesbians.
Guy 1: They actually made a decent storyboard with their romance and the aftermath overall in the New seasons.
Guy 2: Alright, might give it a watch.

J.K Rowling 

Telling a story around one group of people and then much later telling the same story to the same group of people but changing major details and treating it like they were always there.

Harry: “The last time you told this story you said you took her home but now you’re saying you ate her ass? Bruh stop J.K Rowling.”

J. K. Rowling 

verb, When your 'cool mom friend' inserts details into her stories of the past to make her appear more woke than she is.

Example: "I told you about the time I walked with MLK, haven't I?"

"No, because you weren't alive yet, did you really just J. K. Rowling?"
