I have heard people argue that Harry Dresden is a Mary Sue. 

This only works if Jim is really masochistic.

No, Gary Stu doesn't nearly get his hand burned off, and if he does, it regenerates within a few chapters. Molly initially set off my Sue-dar, until Harry threw the pitcher of water over her at the end of Proven Guilty. Mary Sue would have been knocking boots with him at the end of that book.

No Mary Sue!  At the sake of ruining Harry's sex life.  *grin*

Although I seriously cheated.  I kinda browsed Small Favor.  Kinda weird....

Nah, Mary Sue's don't get injured. Or embarrassed.
They dont' get crippling injuries or, you know, fight vampires in yellow ducky boxers.

Also don't Mary Sue's get laid....a lot?

I mean, you have to have some sort of sick, masochistic tendencies to purposely make your Mary Sue go without..... ;D
