Harry Potter whats up-?

No thanks, you’re not my type.

Oh, there’s a comma in there.

Oooooh. Handcuffium Whipiosa

That’s what Hermione said.

How did a comma get up in …

Ach, Crivens, I dinna ken ya words properly! Aye neuh, I see you’re talking aboot creatin’ some light while watchin some hairy pot. Well, a geed candle should do. Do no overthink it neuh! Just be careful not to set the hairy thing afire!

… And don’t be under any illusions about which of you is going to be dominating.

If you’ll excuse me, I must go see Madame Pomfrey – I think I’m going to be sick.

OK, so my guess is that old(?) “tooold” here has a blind date tonight, and wanted to check if his date was on the SDMB.

After Harry promised to show her how to summon a million tiny wizards.

You know what they say :wink: Once you’ve gone centaur… your body is ruined. A total wreak down there. There is no chance of ever enjoying normal relations again. It’s unsalvageable. Especially if she foaled.
:eek:

Harry Potter is full of references to swollen prostates, constipation, and tax-deferred annuities that fly right over the head of the average 50-year-old.

That is the worst possible date format.

In every other area of human communication, the most significant characters are on the left, with the least significant on the right (no comment on big endian vs. little endian). Individual numbers go from most to least. Words are alphabetized from left to right. Codes with mixed alphanumerics go from left to right. Directory hierarchies go from left to right. Even food ingredients on labels are ordered from most to least. Etc.

So what’s the most significant digit in a date? Why, it’s the thousands place for the year. And it’s right in the goddamned middle of the Euro-style date. And the least significant digit–the ones place for the day–is second from the left.

Mind you, the American format is just as bad in this respect. However, it has one microscopic but non-zero advantage over the Euro style, which is that if you have omitted the year, it happens to match the ISO 8601 format. ISO 8601, as any right-thinking individual accepts, is the one true date format and should be used exclusively by everyone.

You just haven’t played the right video games.

C’mon guys. He’s too LD to care.

Why would anyone ever precede a buttonhook with a hyphen-?

A… buttonhook? That’s what you call a question mark? Seriously? Never heard that in my life.

It was a Peanuts cartoon. The van Pelt child was asking his sister whether he should end the sentence with a spot or a buttonhook.

Actually, it was Sally asking Charlie Brown.

Not sure I blame him considering how polite everyone has been.

Lumos!

The OP is like a bad Jerry Seinfeld joke from the 80’s.

“And this Harry Potter? WHAT is up with THAT?”
