i genuinely love seeing peoples really passionate and angry opinions about hobbies i know nothing about where they use a bunch of really specific terminology i dont understand. im just like (nodding) yeah man i bet it is bullshit that they tried to pass off hongus crongus as a 66 Gubbo when its clearly a standard fuckowski, in a blatant insult to hamsport-enthusiasts everywhere, they just never LEARN man

Funny Story

So my 7th grade biology teacher was a little kooky. He liked to make a bunch of different little tiny jokes and get us in tune with the class. He also always drank coffee all the time, and his coffee stirrer was some sort of bone, but whenever someone asked him what bone it was he would always answer with “You’ll all learn eventually” and then changed the subject. The end of the year rolled around and our last couple of lessons were the sex ed unit. My middle school was pretty liberal but it is still Texas and there are some laws about sex ed in place that make it a short unit. Anyway, we went over male genitalia and he was talking about how penis-havers don’t have any bones in their penises, but there are some animals that do, including the raccoon. He then held up his coffee stirrer to show the class what a raccoon penis bone looked like. Let me repeat, he had been stirring his coffee with a raccoon penis bone all year and didn’t tell anyone.

everybody always makes the marauders out to be super cool and suave but dude

they had codenames

they named their own friendship group

as far as i can tell only aBSOLUTE DORKLORDS DO THAT

how much do you wanna bet the entirety of hogwarts refused to call them ‘the marauders’ and they got all grumpy abt it

harrypotterconfessions

The entire exchange between them all during their 5th year exam also attests to this. 1. He’s sitting in my chair 2. He’s wearing my clothes 3. His names remus Lupin?? That’s not even funny ! but they all laughed. And they’ve known he’s a werewolf for how many years at that point? 3? I can’t get over it lolol it is absolutely dorky.

Sirius and James wore matching Phoenix shirts while riding the motorbike together.

In addition (and I will categorically never get over this) sixteen year old James Potter doodling Lily’s initials in a love heart on his DADA OWL exam?

And for god’s sake, they dedicated a significant chunk of their free time to drawing their entire school (and not just any school- Hogwarts, the most convoluted building anywhere ever) and enchanting it to keep track of every single person, not to mention the fucking stairs and the walls that move. This map can see people under the Invisibility Cloak, doesn’t give two shits about Polyjuice Potion.

They were gi-fucking-gantic dorks. You can bet that their dorm room had more advanced textbooks in it than any other in the castle. You can bet that their homework (despite often likely being done a little close to the line) will nine times out of ten be twice as many inches as they were asked for including moving, colour coded diagrams and insanely complex theory on how to improve the effects of said spell or potion, potential applications that literally no-one would have thought of.

Like the very fact that they’re canonically fucking mischief makers of the calibre of Fred and George, the fact that they caused trouble that way is just textbook behaviour for a lot of really really bright kids? They were goddamn geniuses, and they were bloody bored 90% of the time, so they pushed themselves. Acing transfiguration? No problem, let’s become Animagi to help our best mate. Ancient Runes way bellow our skill level? Fine, we’ll use a combination of that, arithmancy and charms to make a map that tracks people all over the castle.

They were absolute nerd kings, and I sodding well love it.

I’ve always felt that a lot of fandom doesn’t fully appreciate the scale of the work they had to do to become Animagi by fifth year.

Like, they supposedly found out about Remus some time during their second year, right? And it’s meant to take years of study to become an Animagus.

But it’s more than just that. Before they could even begin the Animagus part of the process, they had to attain a NEWT-level of understanding of Transfiguration.

They didn’t just do the Animagus stuff, oh no. These little nerdlords steamed through their entire Transfiguration curriculum for the next 6 and a half years of schooling, and then did something that was meant to take ‘years of study’ on top of that.

All in about three and a half years.

Utter genius nerds.

thank you. so so tired of seeing Snape v/s the Marauders posited as nerd v/s jock, and/or Sirius written as not!smart

ah yes, my favourite foreign language feel, “I know what all of those words mean individually but not together like that”

wunderhorntanz

not to forget its twin “i know (roughly) what you’re saying, but what are those words?”

blagdogs-tveiter-tot

Plus the secret triplet “I managed to get your drift but I don’t know how to answer you”.

kaiju-squidling

and the bastard cousin “I understand exactly what you mean, but how the hell do i respond?”

scottish-polyglot-deactivated20

as well as the annoying uncle “I completely understand what you said, but how would I translate that for someone who doesn’t?”

I know there’s a lot of talk abt how fuckin weird 2016 is but honestly I miss how finding weird shit affected me a few years back. like I remember finding a whole blog 100% seriously dedicated 2 shipping the evil guy and the platypus from phineas and ferb and that fucked me up for a whole month, that was all I could think about whenever I logged on to Tamblr Dot Com for an entire month. if I found it today I’d just be like “yeah that makes sense” and wouldn’t give it a second thought.

I don’t know why I pretended to not know dr doofenshmirtz’s name. I knew his name why did I lie to everyone

can someone explain the alignment chart for me but in like, the simplest wording possible lmao

venndigo-blog

lawful good: i want to do the right thing, and following society’s rules is the best way to do that

neutral good: i want to do what’s right, and i’m willing to bend or break the rules as long as no one gets hurt

chaotic good: i’m willing to do whatever it takes as long as it’s to do the right thing

lawful neutral: following the rules of society is the most important thing, and that matters more to me than doing what’s right

true neutral: i just want myself and the people i care about to be happy

chaotic neutral: i want my freedom, and i don’t care what i have to do to keep it

lawful evil: to impede the protagonists (in whatever evil way) is my primary goal, but i follow my own code of morals even when it’s inconvenient

neutral evil: to impede the protagonists (in whatever evil way) is the my primary goal, and while i’ll do what it takes to achieve it, i also won’t go out of my way to do unnecessary damage

chaotic evil: i relish in destruction and want to do as much damage as possible while i try to achieve my primary goal

Here is a handy visual guide I made a while back. Part of my intention was to show the variety of ways that each of the alignments can be represented:
