    I literally am working with a kindergarten kid who is named Hermione and when I was doing assessment with her I casually asked her, “so… your mother really loves reading huh?” And she gave the most tortured sigh I’ve ever heard from a kindergartener and said “yes…” Also she has a classmate named Sherlock which is a whole other iceberg lol

    The literal worst HP thing I've ever seen was a website that was just a countdown until Emma Watson turned 18 so it would be "okay" to sexualize her. Even to this day, I feel so bad for her because of how gross people are about her.
  • i don't write fanfic but when i was younger, maybe 13 or 14, i did write a harry potter fanfic.. it was about the plants in the herbology classroom, for some reason all of them were sentient and they were having a little soap opera whenever nobody was in there
  • @jbjorgman8964
    Crying over the house you were assigned on the original Harry Potter website is a right of passage. I fully sobbed over being sorted into Slytherin because I thought it meant I was evil.
  • @massieblock9770
    i named both my kids after HP characters, but both are regular names that people wouldn’t know unless i told them. i love my little xenophilius and baby mundungus

    My brother's girlfriend is a Disney Adult AND a Potterhead, and one time she forced me to take the sorting quiz. I got Hufflepuff but she insisted I was a Gryffindore because SHE was a Hufflepuff and we're too different to be in the same house. She was so mad at me for getting Hufflepuff she didn't talk to me for two full days. She was 31 at the time.

    my sixth grade teacher ms baker made her whole curriculum and classroom themed around harry potter. there were four tables and each quarter shed rotate the tables around the room but wed be the same houses. we had a point system and read up to the fourth book as a classroom. she also....made us play quidditch....at some point... the golden snitch was a kid she deemed "the fastest" and yes he had the tennis ball groin and yes we used "brooms" my favorite month in her class was actually when we studied greek culture! we had a toga party and designed pots or something. then we went back to harry potter. she made us our own wands with us out of hot glue, gems, and various earth toned paints. she actually was an amazing teacher!! she taught many valuable life skills like how to manage money and made us live on a fake budget for a day. she encouraged each of us to learn and be creative. i was in honor choir, our school music, and also won first place in the science fair all with her encouragement. she was a great teacher but her and the other 6th grade teacher just so happened to be massive potterheads 😭😭

    PLOT TWIST: when they think they're shifting its just a dream that feels like 8 months or however long. ive had a few dreams like that, but it was a weird town made of buckets. i have that dream a lot
  • @sileylav
    Kurtis didn't use the Barbie "balls" audio once when talking about the Golden Snitch. This is character growth
  • @sznnitty
    I remember being in third grade and my friends, all Gryffindors, made me take the sorting quiz. I took it, got Slytherin, and they ignored me for a week.
  • THE TWIN TOWERS FAN FICTION HAD ME LITERALLY CRYING. THAT IS SO FOUL.
  • @selinahilmes
    I love how one of Kurtis' curls forms an S shape when he talks about the Snape Wives and the S shapes they see
  • @rubsy5222
    Fun fact, I named my daughter after a Harry Potter character! My daughter Ebony Dark’ness Dementia Raven Way is the light of my life ❤️❤️❤️
  • @tortle216
    call me crazy but i don't think writing fanfiction should be tiered deeper on the iceberg than naming your child after a harry potter character
  • @layla555665
    This reminds me of that seminar that my university was offering for the teachers degree students that was all about analysing an explicit, adult fanfiction about Draco and Harry. You actually got credit points for that.
  • @deen4305
    fun fact, slytherin traits were basically all traits present in other houses just with synonyms that specifically had a negative connotation. These 11 year olds were all piled into a house that was filled with other kids from toxic households, told their best traits were these negative things, treated like the literal scum by other student's and teachers alike while they marinated in outdated mindsets shared by a bunch of not good people. And then we were supposed to believe that these kids CHOSE to side with the dark lord. Hats off to JKR honestly for legit convincing people that 11 years olds were inherently bad people.
  • @evancarvalho2195
    I don't think writing fanfiction should be on the same level as actual delusion
  • @Attenuation
    The fact that I could've run into Kurtis on Habbo Hotel Harry Potter RP rooms is insane.
