    Pfff. Harry was a jock, Hermione was the nerd - Ron was the stoner burnout.

    That's exactly the problem.

    No one was cool.

    If it knows someone is busy or can't make chat or hasn't posted in three hours, it chooses them

    I think it's random based on who is 'online' and active at the end of the last two pages of a thread.

    Here's a list of uncharitable interpretations of what Harry Potter fans think their house is (without taking the test).

    Gryffindor - People who are too unimaginative to choose a house that's not the hero's house.
    Ravenclaw - If I had to guess, this is the most common. They think they're smarter than everybody else and essentially want to be Hermione, but didn't choose Gryffindor because it's too "popular".
    Slytherin - "LOL I'm so dark and transgressive, I'll choose the evil house!"
    Hufflepuff - I don't have one for them, no need to kick someone who's already down.

    It's just active the last few pages, I'm pretty sure. I've certainly gotten tagged to make threads at 4AM when I'd gone to bed at 1.

    I call the Voya web help line. I miss the "press 1 to..." options because my boss wandered in and started talking. The menu says "Press pound to repeat these options."

    *doot*


    ring.... ring....

    And it connects me to Voya's internal company IT helpdesk...........

    Cedric Diggory was cool as shit, shame he was killed by the greatest spy to ever grace the wizarding world.

    Judging by the length of the sigh the IT guy let out when I told him I'd hit pound this isn't an uncommon occurrence.

    It's interesting to listen to people go on about how they are so past HP and its so immature and nerdy and blah blah.

    And then go all gah gah over whatever cartoons are currently popular.

    Maybe not so grown up. Maybe not really so past it all.


    Maybe huge fucking nerds.

    Also recommended searches for google aren't necessarily tied to your search history.

    If you have a google account and are always logged in, you should turn that stuff off anyways.

    Geth ate my post about Harry Potter magic

    Almost all of the magic fell into one of three camps A) bad shit to hurt people B) boring stuff to ineffectively prevent yourself from being fucked by category A and C) weird shit that made your confections awful and or difficult to eat D) I can turn into an owl. WHO THE FUCK WANTS TO TURN INTO AN OWL?

    Even granting we have lots of potentially powerful stuff, the protagonists never used it. Except time travel, which was really a very lame way to more or less write Hermoine out for most of book 3 or 4(?)

    Furthermore, we're told that Harry thinks being a wizard is fantastic and amazing and can't wait to get back to wizarding, but invariably his perspective while he is there and learning to make is wand glow, or flip a book is that it is drudgery. I rarely got a sense of wonder from Harry, let alone myself. Oh, I thought "That has some interesting possibilities, if I wanted to install myself as god-king" on occasion, but that isn't really a sense of excitement and joy.

    Remember how I was eating lunch in a cafe before my interview, hoping I wasn't sharing it with any potential future coworkers?

    Turns out it's owned by the MD of the company I was being interviewed by. I'm glad I brought up that I enjoyed the sandwich, but on balance answering the "have you any questions" bit with "If I don't get this job do you need waiters?" probably wasn't the smoothest move.
