Sirius escapes Azkaban and is united with Harry and joins the Order:

Some days this quote is what keeps me going.

[weeping-wandrian]

why the fuck does english have a word for

but not for “the day after tomorrow”

???

[zeplerfer]

Because you’re not looking hard enough! ;)

Overmorrow = the day after tomorrow

Ereyesterday = the day before yesterday

Example: I defenestrated my brother ereyesterday. I shall defenestrate my sister overmorrow! Because I hate my family and also windows.

[wantcookie]

english has some of the best examples of stupidly specific words, tbh

Rhotacism (n): excessive use of the letter “R”

Lingible (adj): meant to be licked

Whipjack (n): a beggar, specifically one who is pretending to have been shipwrecked

Yerd (v): to beat with an object with a stick

Roddikin (n): the fourth stomach of a cow or a deer

Balbriggan (n): a type of fine cotton, most often used in underwear

and my personal favorite

Cornobble (v): to slap or beat another person with a fish

[somewhatgreatexpectations]

This makes the English nerd in me extremely happy.

[trisabelle]

Who even made these words I’m going to cornobble them

[adamatronic-deactivated20170419]

My dick is lingible

[solnishka1927-deactivated202504]

there is a dictionary that has all of these stupidly specific and obscure words and a whole lot more. It’s absolutely beautiful.

Can someone calculate for me the volume of loch ness in liters so I can figure out how many humans you’d need to drink it

[rasec-wizzlbang-blog]

Ok I had to search a bit, but it’s apparently 7,448,160,000,000 liters? this is a problem, the upper limit of the average human stomach is just four liters, and even then that’s a very uncomfortable amount of water to have in there. Which means there aren’t enough humans on this planet to drink all of loch ness

[jesus-lizard-journal]

what if they drank their fill and then peed it out somewhere where the liquid wouldn’t just run back into loch ness? Then they could go back and drink more the next morning. How many days would that take? Would we end up with a new loch made entirely of pee? Loch piss? 

[rasec-wizzlbang-blog]

possibly, but thats not taking rainfall into account and the amount of water fed into it every day by the River Oich

[sarah-is-always-triggered]

The upper limit for the human stomach is about 4 liters. It takes the human body about 45 to 60 minutes to absorb/expel 1 liter of water (for the sake of this math problem just go with 60 (1 hour). An average person sleeps 8 hours. An average person spends about 3 hours eating (1 hour for each meal of the day) A day is 24 hours.

1 person alone: 572 billion days or all 7.3 billion people just 78.5 days, roughly. Assuming no one died of e coli or something.

[rasec-wizzlbang-blog]

this is good, but again, this doesn’t take rainfall or the river oich into account. It would have to be done during a dryer season in scottland and the river would need to be dammed.

[severalowls]

There is no dryer season in Scotland though. It hasn’t stopped raining since Roman times.

You might need a second team of people to hold umbrellas over the drinking people.

[rasec-wizzlbang-blog]

the rain would still drip off the umbrellas and into the loch, this is gonna be a problem… someone calculate the annual rainfall over Scotland, can 7 billion people outdrink it?

[butch-king-frankenstein]

The western Highlands, where Loch Ness is located, is one of the rainiest places in Europe, with a yearly average rainfall of 4,577 millimeters (12.54 millimeters a day).  Loch Ness’ surface area is 56 square kilometers.  If it rains 12.54 millimeters every day, then Loch Ness will gain 702,240 cubic meters (over 700 million liters) of water per day.  Everyone will have to drink 0.1 extra liters of water to keep up.

[rasec-wizzlbang-blog]

that sounds doable! our goal is now clear

[cocobutterbella-deactivated2016]

ok but why tho?

if you can think of a better way to find Nessie I’d love to hear it

Part of me doesn’t want to read The Raven Cycle because I don’t want to ruin the mystery of what the fuck it actually is

GUYS

Harry Potter was born in 1980. His 7th year was in 1997 (conveniently the year JK Rowling started writing the series). 19 years after 1997 is 2016. The year when Albus Severus Potter first goes to Hogwarts.

Albus has an older brother - James. Who goes to Hogwarts for the first time 1 year before him.

Harry Potter’s first child is going to Hogwarts this September, pass it on

[queenofcupcakes]

But wait... Harry’s 7th year started in 1997, but it ended in 1998.  And 19 years after 1998 is 2017.  Let’s not stalk James Potter at King’s Cross until September 2017, k?

I don’t know if anyone has ever done this before but, here ya go… The Different Types of Fanfiction! 

I probably left a few out, but these are the most common, compared to their base fiction’s canon plot. Enjoy! XD

So there’s this thing, National Novel Writing Month, where a person writes a 50,000 word novel in 30 days. These people are referred to as crazy. I am one of them.

And there’s this guy, Chris Baty. Baty helped make NaNoWriMo a thing. He even wrote a book about it. A...
