>Oh no Mrs. Granger, to allow you to take more classes than you otherwise would
I was always flabbergasted by the fact that these kids got access to some extremely potent magical items. A device to control time, a cloak that renders you completely invisible, a map that tells you where everyone is in the castle at any time of day....And they squander all of it.
There kids, kids are fricking stupid, why there are laws to protect kids from adults.
>a map that tells you where everyone is in the castle at any time of day
In hindsight, this makes Fred and George tremendous homosexuals
>never realized that Pettigrew was Percy's rat despite sharing a dormitory for 2 years
>never realized Voldemort was Quirrell (though tbf it's unclear how the map would parse possession)
Doubt they would know that Tom Riddle was Voldemort. Its not really clear what name shows up or why.
>a map that tells you where everyone is in the castle at any time of day.
Didn't Harry's dad and his friends make that map when they were like 13? Can't be that hard to do.
Imagine all the kinky student sex that would go on in a wizarding castle at the ripe age of 16.
The reasons wizards haven't taken over the world isn't because the good wizard won't let them, it's because they're all fricking morons.
no one actually think HP has a good story, people just like it for the comfy old english wizard aesthetics

doesn't the time travel only go back like a day?
It goes back as far as you need, provided you can turn the dial enough times.
It's also shown that it won't change the past, it simply allows you to be in two places at once. All the things they tried to change ended up being misunderstandings that never occurred in the first place. It's still very strong but you can't just go back and alter history, because anything you plan to do already happened.
Also pretty funny how they were never used again after that book because time travel is hard to write
You can't change those types of events, time travel is convoluted and it shouldn't even exist in HP to begin with
>I have a convoluted plan
Why the frick wouldn't he envolve other teachers like McGonagall or Flitwick in the horcrux hunt? They were more than capable

It's not like he didn't know where it was
man richard harris dying really sucked, despite having no clue what harry potter even was when he took the part i feel like his dumbledore was much closer to the book than gambon's.
He wouldn't have been able to pull it off in the later movies, too much physicality and anger.
you might be right, but gambon always felt like an angry dude pretending to be nice, i never once believed him as a "helpful sage" type. yeah they would have had to get creative to get 80+ year old harris to do any of the shit from the later movies but it would have been much more shocking to see him pissed off.
I was rewatching the first Harry Potter a couple years ago and I was all like "gee why does Dumbledore look so much like Capt crozier" I looked it up and turns out the actor was Jared Harris' dad. I felt almost proud of myself for spotting
what other secrets does she know?
Not how to secretly evade taxes, that's for sure.

If muggers can't see magic, imagine how much money a wizard assassin would make. Just avatar kedavra people from like 100 ft away in crowded places. Muggles can't see magic, and it doesn't leave a trace. Literally Light Yagami tier.
Muggles can see magic, that's why Jacob got wrapped up in everything in the fantastic beasts movies.
there were wizard cops right? im pretty sure they can smell magic. honestly, id probably end up as ron's dad. just having a normal govt job for a paycheck, and trying to frick around with non-magic shit until i get it right.
honestly, the best thing rowling did with magic in these books was that it was basically incompatible with normal technology. no wizard computer hacking, no bullshit fricking with security systems. dumbledore was apparently the only person who could turn off normal lights with magic
I've always thought an interesting story would be the wizards totally underestimating muggles and trying to wage war on them, maybe Grindlewald or something.
Wizards basically got stuck in the early 1800s for technology, Arthur Weasley is the muggle expert and he doesn't know what a rubber duck is.
Truth be told, muggles would kick the shit out of wizards.
ive given a lot of thought of a book with the premise of magic versus guns. it appears to be incredibly difficult to manage both modern tech and weapons and limiting magic without gimping it. that one magic wand movie with will smith was on the right track, but magic was way too gimped
Magic wouldn't need to be gimped at all, at least not how it's portrayed in HP.
Their most lethal and illegal spell is the killing curse, which just does the same thing as a gun - except the gun doesnt require you to be evil and full of killing intent.
All their shielding spells and visual trickery was developed prior to infrared and heat guided missiles, wizards are horribly outgunned in a fair fight.
Now what would be interesting would be the wizards realizing this and having to get clever, using polyjuice to impersonate the president or something.
yeah but thats what i mean, there would have to be clear limitations on magic, otherwise theres no plot. we joke about how non-magic people somehow live with secret magicians, but its never really important to harry potter. cant just give wizards the ability to disappear artillery or warriors or wahtever.
the whole teleportation thing in harry potter is a big plot hole. i'm sure there's some cope, but i cant help but think wizards would be teleporting around constantly. to the point that any sort of fight would never occur because they can just hearthbubble out
If memory serves it's very difficult to apparate, only really skilled wizards can do it.
possibly. i assumed it was the wizard equivalent of learning to drive a car.
Literally 16 year olds do it, I doubt its hard for them
Your memory does not serve
>they can just hearthbubble out
Most of them don't like it, it's nauseating, you can split body parts and you can't apparent in other continents or other considerable distances
Wizards would just need to transfigure muggle weapons.
>Their most lethal and illegal spell is the killing curse
It's only illegal because of how dangerous it is to other wizards.
Muggles aren't shit. Wizards wouldn't even bother with the killing curse. They'd just do things like summon enormous walls of fire or flick their want to send their enemies a hundred feet into the air and let them fall back down.
Doing things like that to other wizards is trivial. Other wizards can survive those attacks easily. Muggles can't.
Muggles win again.
> They'd just do things like summon enormous walls of fire or flick their want to send their enemies a hundred feet into the air and let them fall back down.
Well, wizards can't survive any of that either. They can use their magic to prevent themselves from being harmed from it, but that's hardly a sure thing. Hermione literally punched Malfoy in the face and he didn't use magic to protect shit. Now think about some special operations unit with night vision goggles and infrared laser sights moving through hogwarts just gunning down everyone in their sleep.

There was only one cloak of invisibility, and that's assuming you would have it.
>There was only one cloak of invisibility
Wrong, they were an item that could be purchased easily.
What made Harry's cloak special was that it was both impervious to revealing charms and supposedly could hide you from Death™.
How effective would a cloak of invisibility work against infrared?
>How effective would a cloak of invisibility work against infrared?
Your standard invisibility cloak would light up like a bonfire. Harry's, however, would still be perfectly invisible.
How about thermal?
It's just fabric, so you could definitely see heat spots on it.
Unclear if it manipulates only visible light or the entire spectrum.
If it's just visible light, which is likely considering whoever made it would have frick all idea what infrared is, then we could easily spot it.
According to the wiki on the thing, it really only makes you invisible to sight.Voldemorts snake was able to detect people under the cloak bc snakes can sense heat (with infrared), so it is likely technology would be able to detect them too.
His dumb parents should have hid under it with him when voldemort broke in
That's... a damn good point actually.
Except the attack was a surprise, so maybe just Lily and Harry could have hidden while James held him off.
Both of them can't find inside the cloak and Homenum Revelio can find them out, read the books, REEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Disillusionment works. If you’re skilled enough, you’re barely detectable. In addition, there are many invisibility cloaks, anon. They’re just made of demiguise hairs instead of whatever the Cloak of Invisibility is (they wear off after 10-20 years).
There’s no reason you couldn’t shoot a wizard to death
It’s basically the X-men storyline right? Where the government tries to imprison them all? X-men are just wizards without wands.
pretty good comparison actually. itd have to be where the majority of wizards cannot do cool shit like levitating houses or exploding a downtown city block. they can just kinda jump higher or make plants grow a bit faster or really good housecleaning
More like you would have to make magic insanely OP in order to compete with guns.
A hot war would be over comically fast but the surviving wizards would learn quickly how to infiltrate muggle society. Theyd be ruling the world on no time
That's what would make it interesting, both sides slipping into paranoia.
Muggles never knowing if who they're talking to is an impostor and wizards never knowing if a satellite is listening into their plans.
you're not thinking outside the box. why would wizards fight battles? use magic to become invisible, teleport and mind control the leadership, ezpz
>why would wizards fight battles?
Precisely because they underestimate us and think it'd be a shit easy victory.
And when some of them die they'll wise up. Their own civil war is fought by Voldemort primarily by mind controlling and infiltrating their own wizard government, where people know about magical mind control, it would be a walk over for them to fight muggles in this way
>Arthur Weasley is the muggle expert and he doesn't know what a rubber duck is.
So why isn't he replaced by a muggle born?
wizards might have a magical government, but it's still a government at the end of day. i'm sure the people who know what a rubber duck is work private sector
Because they're outwardly prejudiced against half breeds.
In reality people like Harry and Hermione, having lived in the real world, would dominate the wizarding world.
That’s pretty much what happened too, Hermione becomes Minister of Magic running the government, while Harry runs the Aurors making him basically commander in chief of Wizarding Britain’s armed forces.
Meanwhile Ron helps run his brother’s joke shop.
The Broadway show it not canon.
Isn't a theory that Arthur is just pretending to be moronic to make harry feel more comfortable? Also considering that most wizards appear to be at the very least half-bloods wouldn't they have at least a basic understanding of how things work in the muggle world
>Arthur is just pretending to be moronic to make harry feel more comfortable?
That would be the most cozy and wholesome thing in the whole fricking book series, honestly
But there's evidence of the contrary, like Arthur's battery collection and the ford anglia illegal shenanigans.
could a moron retrofit a car to fly like a broom, evading the authorities until two kids steal it and fly it around one of the most well known wizard-run transportation lines in the world?
You know it always bothered me that 90% of Rowlings problems with world building in Harry Potter would have been solved by making the Wizarding World and the Muggle world two literally different worlds rather than a secret society that also inhabited our own.
That's actually an excellent point/idea
>Harry's parents get murdered in Magic Earth
>Dumbledore hides him in Muggle Earth with a family he mind controls/threatens/bribes/whatever to take him in
>That's why wizards know so little about muggles and their way of life
>That's why the secret can be kept so well
>That's why dragons, trolls, and giants can exist in the crowded-ass modern-day Europe with nobody noticing
To be fair, two of those just kind of fell into the MC's lap, it wasn't that he was entrusted with them, they just existed and he got ahold of them. The time turners were a terrible idea, never put time travel in a story if you can avoid it, it just breeds plot holes.
A huge appeal of the series for kids was the idea that wizards could be secretly lurking around any corner.
That's like the premise of shit ton of anime/manga/ nip young adult novels.
the moon is not a star
If the Wizards can infiltrate human society first then they win. They can disable key infrastructure or even impersonate key individuals. Humans have no counter to this level of magic spycraft and espionage. They are helpless against it.
Depends....How nuke-proof is Hogwarts?
>muh nukes
yeah i'm sure great britain will trivially be able to launch nukes at an uninhabitated patch of land without the whole population having a meltdown and hanging the leaders from lampposts
Depends on if they go into all-out war.
why would wizards ever engage in all out standing war?
there is nothing they need to defend except themselves - muggles can't even approach magical anomalies forget utilising them.
the ultimate guerilla force
>why would wizards ever engage in all out standing war
Because there be a conflict between muggles and wizards at all implies that the wizards calling the shots are morons like Deh Man, otherwise there'd be no conflict at all.
the whole point of magic is that it's pure potential.
wizards would just cast a ritual mass hypnosis that makes all the muggles forget about wizards again.
this is why the statute of secrecy exists - coz wizards don't want to lose the muggle friends they've made who understand magic.
if soul magic is possible and mind magic is possible then logically speaking combining both of them on a mass scale is easily possible = anyone who does magic is the only one who can see magic society.
trivial but grand solution that magic users aren't cruel enough to use unless forced to.
>If the Wizards can infiltrate human society
The half-bloods/muggleborn might be able to, but it's a repeating theme in the books the purely Wizard-raised magicals are dumb as frick and stick out like a sore thumb.
>I've always thought an interesting story would be the wizards totally underestimating muggles and trying to wage war on them, maybe Grindlewald or something.
Isn't this the literal plot of the fantastic creatures films? The guy Grindlewald spergs out because normies have made nukes and shit which started putting normies above wizards in the pecking order since the average wizard is a fricking gump with limited offensive power and the average american cop could waste them with a gun and just go "damn that guy on PCP was moved in a crazy fashion"
Yeah it was but he never actually got to do it.
>Be Grindlewald
>try to warn my magical brethren about an existential threat facing our kind
>get berated and scorned
>try to save everyone on my own
>get thrown in prison for 'war crimes'
saved
why would white racist grand wizards terrorize serious blacks?
idea:
>medieval/bronze age/agricultural revolution world where magic/wizards exist
>but in this world wizards fight normal non-magic humans instead of being pussies
>wizards win due to obvious superiority & natural selection prefers them
>regular homosexual sapiens go exinct and are looked back as neaderthals
>wizards advance in technology extremely quickly (magic is basically a superior version of electricity and used similar to zero-point energy)
>fast forward and they are a space faring civilization expanding across the galaxy, magic is common in everyone and wizards consider them selves regular default humans (homo-magians?) (kinda like in Fairy Tail or My Hero Academia)
basically this is the lore/premises to build upon a further story
Guns can do 0 (zero) to locate, access, and ultimately destroy Horcruxes, which of course is Volde's only weakness.
>Guns can do 0 (zero) to locate, access, and ultimately destroy Horcruxes, which of course is Volde's only weakness.
What happens if you drown lors voldemort? Does he die or is just suspended in infinite death animation?
so a .50 to the head won't hurt him. what about 3,000 rounds from a minigun. This why fricking vampires can't exist
This is why I like VTM vampires, they do a good job differentiating what's myth and what's real and balance things so that X vs Y discussions would be fun.
In that world vampires are tough but not indestructible, so not only would enough bullets kill a vampire, guns are effective enough that many vampires use them. Plus humans have weapons like flamethrowers that would absolutely frick up a vampire's day.
It makes the whole "vampires are strong but still need to hide so humans won't rise up and destroy them" thing very believable.
not the game but as I understand it the VTM world also has wizards that can snuff out stars shit like that
>just suspended in infinite death animation
Pretty sure that's what happened to him at the end
>dip bullet in basilisk venom
>shoot horcrux
That was easy
wouldn't it dissolve your gun barrel?
Luckily you only need one shot, and barrels are interchangeable.
make the barrel out of a basilisk fang
Guns and other muggle inventions go crazy nearby magic. So gun would jam.
Yep, that's how it works. I am not making that up.
i wonder if there could be some "magic gun". kinda like putting a wii remote in a plastic steering wheel. basically put a magic wand inside a gun thats magically programmed to cast some bullet spell.
Why so convoluted? Just make the gun out of magic ingredients. Smelt some cauldrons for the barrel. Whomping willow/dragon horn grips. Make the bullets out of ground basilisk tooth, manticore spike, or other such horseshit for the propellant. Melt down some golden snitches to make the jacket. Bingo-Bango, Yous got'chu a wizard problem solver (purely academic of course)
>(purely academic of course)
yes, headmaster. of course
You're actually wrong, but it's a common misunderstanding.
Muggle tech doesn't work near Hogwarts, since it's been specifically charmed not to.
Magic in general doesn't have an effect on tech.
And also, it most likely wouldn't have an effect on guns or bullets, since their operation relies on the same basic physical and chemical interactions that the human body runs on.
>Magic in general doesn't have an effect on tech.
>And also, it most likely wouldn't have an effect on guns or bullets, since their operation relies on the same basic physical and chemical interactions that the human body runs on.

Five words? Okay. It wouldn't.
If you could cast leviosa fast enough to intercept a bullet then you're the fricking flash.

You don't need to be up close as a muggle. You can just set up artillery with conventional shells. How is a wizzard stopping a 1 ton HE shell shot from a cruiser over 20 miles away. They might be able to beat "smart" weapons with electrical infetterence or some shit. Perhaps muggles were in the best place to fight wizzards around WW2. Imagine the allies and axis banding together to fight wizzards. Could be good be it a bit memey.
Yeah but each time your shoot Voldemort he uses up one of his soul fragments encased in the horcruxes. It would take time, but shooting him each time he returned would do the trick.
He didn't lose a horcrux when he suicided himself on baby harry.
He actually gained an unintended horcrux IN Harry. Shooting voldemort wouldn't kill him, and even if you do manage to destroy his body, he can still survive as a malevolent spirit without "using up" any of his horcruxes. They aren't extra lives, but pieces of his soul that essentially keep him tethered to the world of the living and prevent him from crossing over. Now maybe you can nuke a horcrux, the objects themselves aren't invulnerable.
Yeah but he was crippled for 14 years and didn't recover until he completed a wacky and complicated one-time resurrection ritual.
Ok, but realistically. Will horcrux survive a nuke? Or even 10 kilos of tnt
yes
just kill him to death then kill all his followers that came out of the woodwork. Voldemorts only alive because his rat Black person minion was there to ressurect him
Pokemon dragoball etc. Harry potter was kinda like "eh thats neat" but was never like "omfg this blows my mind!!!"

>we're supposed to believe that Harry and Hermione didn't know ex-IRA guys who were decommissioning/burying all of their old weapons and explosives
More like
>get on plane to America
>buy gun
>transfigure into a baseball cap
>fly back to UK
They were 90s teenagers, they weren't that independent yet and Harry is Muggle poor but is a wizard billionaire.
It's much easier shaking down ex-IRA guys who have accepted to go legit.
I've seen it estimated that he probably had about $2M in real money

Nothing personal Mugglescum
Are you moronic?
The time turner can't change things, that's not how it works.
The time turner doesn't allow you to go back and make decisions that would impact the way things turn out, you're only able to do things that were already done.
It's amazing how many idiots got filtered by this simple device.
>you're only able to do things that were already done.
From whose perspective? In PoA Harry thinks he sees his dad save him from the Dementors, only to later go back in time and realize it was him saving himself.
It's an objective fact.
Harry thinks he sees his dad, but that doesn't have any effect on him going back in time.
It's only when he realizes that it wasn't his dad, but himself that he saw, that he steps out and does what already happened.
It was unavoidable, he HAD to go back and save himself because he was already saved.
I got news for you, it's excluded in this one too.
>but that doesn't have any effect on him going back in time.
True, but it does mean you can change the past, since Harry never would've made it to the point he could use the time turner without having first made it to the point he could use the time turner, which is impossible. Dumbledore used the time turner before they did to go back and make sure they'd use it to save themselves (originally they presumably didn't), which is why he tells Hermione that 'three turns should do it'.
This is a common issue for people to get a handle on with the time turner.
How could Harry have gone back to save himself if he weren't already saved by himself?
How could Dumbledore know how far back to go if they hadn't already been there?
This is what we call a causal loop, a repeating sequence with no possible beginning.
The time turner itself functions on a perfectly logical set of rules, but its very function does necessitate the existence of said causal loops.
This is just one of those moments where you have to suspend your disbelief and accept "it's magic I ain't gotta explain shit" as the literal canonical answer.
It's less to do with how it works and the principles behind it, and more to do with the exact set of circumstances that take place at the end of the book being awkward.
Oh it's awkward for sure, but it does logically pan out as long as you just handwave away the loop.
It's the reason Rowling never used them again, it's too hard to keep the timeline straight and not have giant holes - which is why they all got conveniently destroyed in book 5.
>which is why they all got conveniently destroyed in book 5
It's also fricking hilarious because instead of making time turners an artifact nearly as rare as the Philosopher's Stone/Deathly Hallows, there were apparently dozens of them on a shelf all along.
And they just handed one to a 14 year old girl.
Nobody ever said Rowling makes sensible stories, just entertaining ones.
Pretty cool way to exclude free will from your universe
>The time turner doesn't allow you to go back and make decisions that would impact the way things turn out, you're only able to do things that were already done.
Harry literally goes back in time to save himself and Sirius from the Dementors in the forest which is something that would not have happened otherwise.
yes but rowling hates trannies
You're moronic, it already happened which allowed him to go back and do it.
I'm not going to argue this with you, these are children's books you're being intellectually filtered by.
The moron is you anon. In poa potter and hermione go back and then save buckbeak and the rest. If you think that could be done only because turner allowed them to do what was already done... See the paradox? Two actually. One is they had to save bucky with a time turner for it to work but what started the first cycle if at some point there was no turner involved? Second paradox is you graduating elementary school while thinking and breathing at the same time is obviously a struggle for you.
moron
I'm pretty sure Rawling herself said a wizard with a wand would lose to a muggle with a shotgun.
The sole advantages wizards have are being able to fire their weapons with zero tells (wandless + nonverbal casting) and having mind-control to attack muggle leadership.
I was always busy with school and family, so books were moreso something for bedtime. Harry Potter was okay, but my fondest memories are eating jumbo rockets under the covers with a booklet while reading the first Heroes of Olympus book. Unfortunately, the series doesn't withstand the test of time, and even tween me knew the series was garbage by Mark of Athena (book four).
Anyway, read Discworld.
Are you me?
There are no guns in england because they banned them dumb frick
Basically everything I spent my childhood on, since I only saw the first two movies and read none of the books.
I might have got way more into Pokémon
I always felt like the "just use a gun" sentiment was a bit odd. Wands are incredibly versatile and have almost the same functionality that guns do. It'd be a literal wave of a wand to nullify projectiles or deter gun use.
Wizards using guns would be undeniably sick but it really wouldn't pan out... unless it were a magic gun.
See
A lot of the defense seen in the series is more in the moment (deflecting spells as they come) but if a wizard has to fight someone with a gun... then it seems like a no-brainer to cast a barrier or some protection spell into battle.
And I imagine the response would be "what if the wizard was caught without a protection spell" and then you've looped back around because then a gun would serve the same purpose as casting Avada Kedavra.
Wands just work well as guns as much as they are good at other stuff.
The gun kills you before you have a chance to say a protection spell
I dont see wizzards lobbing avada kadavra's accross miles of open land like muggles do with shells, mate. Also I bet there will be some legion of wizzards on the muggle side that can help them circumvent dumb little barriers. There is no way wizzards would ever win. Wizzards don't innovate as is clear from the story but we muggles would have developed anit-wizzardy weapons within a year of war and they would all be in extermination camps by the end of the second year.
Frick w*zzards! Muggle pride worldwide!
Wizards are vulnerable to bows and swords. There isn't any kind of protective spell that blocks them so I don't see one blocking guns.
Voldermort could have just hired a junkie to murder harry and be done with it. He still would have all the other horcruxes.
voldemort and harry were intertwined by fate. only voldemort could kill harry, or vice versa. magical rules. kinda like how only mount doom lava could destroy the ring
Wizards can go invisible, teleport, mind control and napalm bomb, guns are useless against such foes.
No matter how much wizardry, teleport and mind control you pull, you cant do nothing when you're outnumbered 1000 to 1. That is why they try to remain secret. If muggles knew about them, they'd be instantly put in check or destroyed
If we're talking fully competent wizards they would have insurgent bases in soup cans buried in the desert and would teleport in only to release sentient homing nail bombs and unquenchable fire into population centers or to mind control, mind read or impersonate vital personnel. And there are many reasons to remain hidden, mainly because the wizards don't need anything from the muggles and don't want to exterminate them. There's nothing you can do against a foe who can go anywhere, hide in anything, disguise as anyone, and have zero identifying characteristics aside from being caught red handed warping reality.
If Hermione is so intelligent why didn't she smuggle a gun into Hogwarts and kill Voldemort herself?
Is there anything more cringeworthy and gay than guys who ramble about how guns would kill everyone in harry potter? Aside from the complete lack of imagination about of all things, magic, "muh snipers muh 50 cals and 308s" only reminds me of kids who got bullied on call of duty.
Cry more about how your childhood wizard story holds no water when thought about logically
>Is there anything more cringeworthy and gay than guys who ramble about how guns would kill everyone in harry potter
Yeah, the guy on Cinemaphile who comes into a thread about something that annoys him just to comment about how annoyed he is about the thread
sex with witches
BIG WITCH _____
hermoine becane rich smuggling in muggle supplies for the girls they had never heard of
Witches just vanished their discharge between classes in the girls bathrooms. Of course, if you happened to get your period before you sixth year (the year in which they learned vanishing charms) you would be forced to just endure it unless you knew an older girl who liked you (likely as a result of sexual favors.)
Going outside and hanging out with my friends.
>go outside and hang out with friends
>they're all talking about the new Harry Potter book and whose older brother has a copy they'd be willing to loan out
Wow, that's a pretty neat image, anon. Check out mine.
you fricker
>GOOD BYE, FRIEND OF HAGRID.
>are you really free if your brain dictates your every action?
as opposed to what?
Why not use a radiation weapon? Wizards don’t even know what electricity is, much less gamma rays. They wouldn’t even know why their teeth are falling out and their veins leaking blood like a sieve
That would actually work shocking well.
Just drop cores from a drone and watch them fall down dead.
Because as someone already pointed out, Voldemort grew up in the muggle world, he was 19 when they dropped the bombs on Japan
He knows what an atomic bomb is, what radiation is
I'm actually very surprised he doesn't have custom spells that stimulate muggle warfare
Imagine Voldemort just pointing his wand at you and and blasting you with lethal doses of radiation
You have no idea what happened, then you start puking out your guts and burning up from the inside
As early as year three, Hermione would have had a hairy pussy
>odorius accio
>Unleashes Dementors on the Muggle army
The frick are they going to do about it?
What can a dementer do against a ginger?
>if you didn't have Harry Potter to enjoy?
Even as a kid I thought it was frickin awful. I stopped reading the books in the first half on the fifth one. It was a damn chore I've put upon myself because my parents were obnoxious about it
Star Wars, Marvel, Manga and Anime were becoming a thing in the west at that time and there were already a handful of "magic academy" franchises there, the Potterverse pales in comparison to the mildest of Shonen Manga series.
I tried reading one of those, the second one; shit feels like it's meant to be read to five year olds. I saw the movie and thought it was "okay" at the time, just not for me.
i was 30 when the books came out, so meet up with friends, bmx to the gravel pits and jump off the gravel. we went to the swimming pool after never watched or read harry potter
>was 30 when the books came out
Holy shit man, get out of this shithole already. I'm in my mid twenties and I feel too old for this place like half of the time.
no. you'll be like me soon. The last movie i watched was Ace Ventura 2 when it was released
>30
>riding bmx bikes
>gravel pits
>swimming pool
>.. at 30 years old
PSA: every moron LARP like this is some poo saying shit that doesn’t even come close to ringing true. Why? Because deep down every Indian is a scammer and swindler
no, i was talking about being young you dumb c**t. I grew up without the internet
>>at 30 years old
No, not at 30 years old you illiterate dipshit. The question was how would you spend your childhood without Harry Potter and he answered how he spent his childhood ~15-20 years before the books came out.
Samegay too
He wasn't asking about normal stuff every single generation does even though old dumbasses falsely complain that "kids today" don't. You really had no interests that weren't completely generic? No books, no movies, no television shows, no toys? You must have been the dumbest kid on the block.
Anything would've been better than being called "Harry Potter" because I was poor and wearing glasses.
Long before it was hebraically pozzed.
Star Wars fans are even worse than potterheads.
Potterheads are fat HR workers, gays, troons, and single mom's fingering themselves with dragon dildoes and cleaning out their haunted coozes with their shitty wall mandalas while vaping.
This is objectively wrong. I've inserted benis into two mom-tier women and while it's true that both of them owned at least one physical copy of HP, they weren't for recreational purposes. One was an ackshual mom who worked in banking and kept it around to entertain her child when she wasn't home, and the other was a uni language professor who used HP to organically supplement the introduction of literary English Eastern Euros
>aka I was given permission by the mom's black bulls for 2 minutes of me eating their pies out of their pussies while they waved their wands around aying 'Extracto spoogearamus".
>tfw born slightly too late to enjoy growing up in the 90s, yet slightly too early to be unaware of everything going to shit in the 10's.
I guarantee that some wizard had a hot as frick mom and they made a polyjuice potion with her c**t hair to turn into her just to feel her breasts.
'ARRRRRY POTTTERRRRR!
IT'S BEEN HOW MANY YEARS NOW?
HOW MANY YEARS OF DUMBLEDORE POSTING?!
>He said calmly.
As a kid, I was way more into Pokémon, Yugioh, and DBZ. I still am.
Bro. Imagine a gun made from goblin silver. It could eat up spells and shoot them right back!
>it's called social justice
imagine lord voldefart but without his gang, because he was too white to be cool
