FART


We had houses in my irl high school in scotland back in the early 00's

Nobody gave a poo poo about them though, and they meant absolutely nothing. So I dunno why jk rowling made them like the most important thing in the wizarding world. Probably because she's as dumb as a fart.

Hmm... that's a tough one. The orgy tells me it should be in the jock house, but the bdsm tells me that kid might enjoy some time with the dudes that sleep in the dungeons.

The Magicians is terrible because basically everyone in the story is hedonistic assholes. It ruins the message of the story because everything is lovely when you are a hedonistic rear end in a top hat. There is only one likable character in the story. The TV show makes everyone way less terrible. Also, the show removes the creepy scene where everybody has sex as animals that was in the book.

The message of any wizard story is 'imagine you're a wizard, that's loving badass, whoa now you have even more powers, you are awesome, look at all this rad poo poo you could do with your powers'. ANY deviation from this is unforgivable and unpublishable.

If I remember right Hermione was offered Ravenclaw but chose Gryffindor. Basically the same way Harry was offered Slytherin and turned it down.

She tried to redeem the other houses later in the books but meh.

Once upon a time I was just a broke genius who always felt on the outside leading a boring live barely smashing at all, but then one warm summer day I got an iMessage saying you are wizard!!! I dropped my iPhone 12 Pro Max in shock, shattering the precision crystal-clear sapphire glass to bits. "Oh gently caress! I said. I dropped the phone!" but when I reached up to pick it up, the screen was brand new and I got a $100 free iTunes credit in my account! "This is amazing", I said as I explored the App Store, reading the reviews of all the cool apps I could buy. "I'm a wizard, who has $100 to spend in the App Store. But do I want to leave the life where I am comfortable and seek out the unknown to grow my powers and become more awesome?"

Just then I got a FaceTime from a girl wizard who has smoking hot boobs. "Hey I heard you're a wizard" she says, her voice crystal clear and her boobs popping in full Dolby Vision. "You should like, let me tutor you in the ways of magic, and like, have sex with me and other hot girl wizards". And I said '"I don't know if I want to leave the life that I have since I am comfortable". She said "Pfff if it is comfort that you are seeking wizards get free Steelcase chairs". I thought for a minute about Steelcase's superior adjustability and ergonomics and it really made up my mind. "Well okay, I said, but I hope I don't have to pay a terrible price for this power that I seek".

Unfortunately I did, but Apple Card lets you repay it over a year of several small interest free payment periods and even included free Apple TV+, so I could enjoy the antics of my favourite astronaut, Buzz Aldrin, on the alternate history cinematic series For All Mankind.

Bet it's awkward for whoever has to clean that crusty hat when it starts guilt tripping them because they never amounted to anything in their life after they argued with the hat and chose the wrong house as an 11yr old.

Now here they are scrubbing the headmaster's jizz rag a brief seven years later because they thought "hufflepuff" would be a good life choice.

Wonder if the hat gets a salary 🤔

There should be a trashy US Southern Harry Potter instead of the up class one we have. Could be like Harry Potter and the Kidney Stone, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fireball, etc. like more relatable stuff to the salt of the earth.

Wait, the hat just suggests what house you go into? And most people decide to follow the advice of a piece of clothing.

Every person who is obsessed with what house they would sort into would almost certainly sort into Hufflepuff.

hufflepuff is the only house you want to get sorted into anyway. your other choices are tryhards, workalohics, and lawful evil. the other choice is live next to the kitchens and get high while you're at school and afterwards never get a job because nobody wants lazy rear end hufflepuffs so your adulthood continues to be living next to the kitchen and getting high... seems like a no brainer imo

Sounds p cool. Why do the wizards need to work anyway? Why get jobs? Like what do they need money for?
Ron's family is depicted as being poor but you still see in their house they've got magic spells to handle all the chores and stuff. Theoretically they can make food and anything else they might need with magic.

I always thought it was funny that the Weasley family was poor despite the fact that like ten of them have really nice jobs, including at least a couple of them in the wizard government. Hermione's parents are non magical dentists and they have plenty of money, how the hell do the Weasleys come out behind a couple of un-magiced tooth touchers?
