7. Telling my rat familiar that "I hate everyone but you" is very likely to creep people out.

30. I cannot get credit in Ancient Runes for knowing BASIC, no matter how long it's been in use.
31. My ex-girlfriend does not go to Hogwarts, no matter how much of a witch she is. (I hope she doesn't. Otherwise I'd feel silly.)

A reminder: [info]waywardoctagon has been doing a great job coming up with graphics for The 50 Things I am not allowed to do at Hogwarts Cafepress Store. But we're asking for input! There are far too many excellent addenda to fit on the back of one shirt, so we'll be doing different editions. We could just call them "More things I am not allowed to do at Hogwarts", "Further things I am not allowed to do at Hogwarts", "Revenge things I am not allowed to do at Hogwarts", "Bride of things I am not allowed to do at Hogwarts"... but I'm sure some of you clever folk can think of something funnier!

*coughs urgently at the misspelling of her name, while snickering, because she is twelve*

Gah, I've been misspelling names a lot lately. Sorry, fixing now!
octal[info]waywardoctagon on April 20th, 2005 07:29 pm (UTC)
It's okay; it's just that that particular misspelling happened to create a rather... odd... rebracketing effect.

:cheers at posting:

I crack myself up. Me and about two other people, hah.
Atalanta Pendragonne[info]atalantapendrag on April 20th, 2005 10:02 pm (UTC)
Well, you cracked me up.

[38. Yoko Ono is not the Dark Lord. ]

I think thats up for debate

You beat me to it! (I just got home from work, else I'd have commented earlier on this.)

Ten More for the List...
I will not claim that Professor Snape is "as anatomically impaired as a Ken doll," nor will I demand that he prove this claim false.

I am not to leave a cake in the rain where Headmaster Dumbledore can see it.

Harry Potter does not use a corked Quidditch broom.

I am not to proclaim in Divination class that Professor Flitwick will someday appear in a Travelocity.com advertising campaign.

"Badgers? We don' need no steenkin' badgers!" is not an appropriate way to greet a student who has been Sorted into Hufflepuff.

In my third year, I am not to ask Headmaster Dumbledore if he's just used one of his alloted regenerations.

Hufflepuff is not a reference to sniffing glue.

I will not rewrite the entire history of Alchemy by referring to the Philosopher's Stone as the "Sorceror's Stone."

I am not to sing the entire Multiplication Rock series during Arithmancy exams.

If I wish to cast a spell, I will simply use my wand. I need neither wiggle my nose nor cross my arms and sharply nod.

Re: Ten More for the List...

Re: Ten More for the List...
hehe!

Just One More...
I am not the Wizard of Speed and Time.

Re: Just One More...

MARRY ME!




...despite his green attire, I don't think I can see Jittlov as a Slyth.

Here via the Snitch, and

There is no such thing as "the Chamber of Double Secret Probation."

you don't want to know what word I read in place of "Probation". Although you can probably guess.

Wandering off to read less porn now.
Atalanta Pendragonne[info]atalantapendrag on April 28th, 2005 06:48 am (UTC)
I read it the same way at first. I'm a twisted woman.

...Okay, number 4 WINS.

I think I'm in love with your icon.

Personally, I'd like to see the thing with the Vasquez comics. And I'm honestly surprised there have been no Wicked jokes yet. *Toddles off to read the next appendix*
