I am crazy like a very crazy thing.  
Because I am deeply insane...



Fifty Things I Am Not Allowed To Do At Hogwarts

[info]hogwarts_hocus Edition




1. Professor Cthulhu will not be flattered if I ask him to sign my copy of "Legend of the Overfiend".
2. I must not poke the serial killers.
3. If I am caught writing "All Hufflepuffs are useless pansies" on the bathroom wall I deserve everything that happens to me.
4. I must not tell the "Defence Against" Dark Arts Professor that he takes himself too seriously.
5. Having "the cold dead eyes of a killer" is not grounds for squibbing,
6. There is no rule six.
7. I will not tell DEATH that his capslock key is stuck.
8. If I write Nightwing/Ryuuji slash I will make very sure that neither of them ever finds out.
9. If I write Teatime/Johnny slash I will make very sure that neither of them ever finds out.
10. If I write Steerpike/anyone slash I will make very sure that everyone finds out.
11. I will not suggest that mudwrestling is a silly way to resolve disputes.
12. The fourth wall is there for a reason and I should not break it unless, you know, it'd be funny.
13. I will not ask No Face for "bling".
14. Changing the password to the Slytherin dorm to "Cheer up, emo kid!" is a bad idea.
15. Changing the password to the Gryffindor dorm to "Cheer up, emo kid!" is a bad idea.
16. Changing the password to the Hufflepuff dorm to "Barefoot and Pregnant" is a bad idea.
17. Changing the password to the Ravenclaw dorm to any of the "Twelve Steps" is a bad idea.
18. Telling Ryuuji that his favorite shade of eyeliner has been discontinued will probably get me beat up.
19. Writing a [info]hogwarts_hocus-specific parody of "Banned From Argo" would be very wrong.
20. Writing a [info]hogwarts_hocus-specific parody of "The Ball At Kerrymuir" would be very wrong.
21. Loudly denouncing Western medicine in my application is a good way to get squibbed.
22. Loudly denouncing anime in my application is a good way to get squibbed.
23. I should not refer to Professors Lupin and Greyback as "The Fox and the Hound", especially if I speculate out loud which is which.
24. I will not sell "Women of Hufflepuff" calendars.
25.I will not sell "Men of Slytherin" calendars.
26. Giving lightsabers to serial killers was, in retrospect, a poorly though out Sorting bribe.
27.Even if I do have a deck of playing cards in my hand, I probably shouldn't ask Mr. Teatime if he wants to play poker.
28.Giving Sadako her own cable access show was wrong.
29. Devi does not want to hear me sing "Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down)".
30. I must not get us on Fandom_Wank for the sole purposes of recruiting new applicants.
31. Recruiting new applicants will not get me an actual toaster oven.
32. The Herbology professor does not have a D-Hopper.
33. I will not sell English-Furbish/Furbish-English dictionaries in which obscene come-ons have been substituted for such phrases as "Good Morning", "Thank you, Headmistress", and "The bathroom is down the hall and to the right".
34. There is no such thing as retroactive squibbing.
35. New students are not required to give the prefects a lap dance.
36. The first rule of Dissection Club is you don't talk about Dissection Club.
37. Salazar Slytherin is not an advice columnist.
38. "Chained to my bed" is not an acceptable Sorting vote.
39. I will not go to class sk... hell, people will hardly notice if I go to class skyclad around here.
40. No good will come of referring to the Malfoys as "inbreed three-nippled cousin-fuckers".
41. Suggesting to Eros that he play William Tell was amusing but unkind.
42. "Because the colors would bring out your eyes" is a shallow reason to Sort someone into a particular house.
43. As enjoyable as movie night might be, "Dragonslayer" would probably not be a popular choice.
44. We do not, as yet, have an exchange program with Transylvania Polygnostic University.
45. Or Miskatonic University.
46. I will not use House Elves for target practice. That's what squibs are for..
47. Unless you live in a hat, calling Professor Greyback "Fuzzy" is a bad idea.
48. Giving Ravenclaws Antabuse is just cruel.
49. SquibWeapons are allowed. SquibDildos are not.
50. Offering BPAL products as an OOC Sorting bribe is bad form. No matter how many people take you up on it.

#13 made me laugh out loud. :)

Are you part of the lovely insanity, or just amused at the thought?
Karin: Mei[info]hangingfire on February 10th, 2006 07:40 pm (UTC)
Merely an enormously amused Miyazaki fan. I just re-watched "Spirited Away" recently too.

Oh, that's bloody brilliant.

I see I've been missing out by not watching this comm.

It is my favoritest crack and so much fun.

Valentine's Day will be SCARY.
Karin[info]hangingfire on February 10th, 2006 08:36 pm (UTC)
Just read the Microsoft Clippy application. Good thing I wasn't drinking anything at the time...
Atalanta Pendragonne[info]atalantapendrag on February 10th, 2006 08:40 pm (UTC)
Come for the crack, stay for the SquibWeapons!

9. If I write Teatime/Johnny slash I will make very sure that neither of them ever finds out.

That kind of ... REALLY scares me, thinking up what cracktastic babies that would have created o.O;;


And yay for Fight Club references!


I think Johnny would be disturbed with ANY songs Johnny'd be singing. She Hates Me might be an appropriate song too though. Or... another song I can't think of right now. *headdesk*

"Nnphf. You have a piece of lung in your hair. It looks hot."

*looks at lyrics* *hits IsoHunt to find a torrent*


You know there's gonna be more karaoke, right? *g*

I think I just threw up a little lmao.

Ack, you are not familiar with Puddle of Mudd?! *has no room to talk with the things she's never seen*


Maybe Devi'll actually PARTICIPATE this time instead of just being drunkened in the back.
Atalanta Pendragonne[info]atalantapendrag on February 10th, 2006 09:04 pm (UTC)
Muahahaha. The things that come out of this skull...

And no, I'd never heard of them; my knowledge tends toward the geeky and/or obscure.


I promise I won't let Johnny sing "Maxwell's Silver Hammer", or the song from that JtHM flash video.
Girl Anachronism[info]lp_drumline7 on February 10th, 2006 09:13 pm (UTC)
Ah, that's why. I hardly have anywhere to discover this geeky and/or obscure. I'm surrounded by MTV addicts. *facepalm*

Maxwell's Silver Hammer, lmfao. Dear lord, your mind.
JtHM flash video...?
*not sure if she wants to know... But at the same time really kind of does*
Atalanta Pendragonne[info]atalantapendrag on February 10th, 2006 09:24 pm (UTC)
Ahhh, but the internet is where anyone can tap into the geeky and obscure. Padawan. *g*

JtHM video
Maxwell's Silver Hammer video

They're fun.

Amusing, is it not?
Girl Anachronism: Ca-reeeeeepy Jhonen[info]lp_drumline7 on February 10th, 2006 11:23 pm (UTC)
It is! Although I'm not sure how much I'm likin' slightly emo Johnny.

"Argh! He's regressed back to teen-angst mode!"






I've definitely used that quote before.
Atalanta Pendragonne[info]atalantapendrag on February 10th, 2006 11:52 pm (UTC)
Ah, he had a lot to deal with at once. The Jimmy torture certainly seems to be cheering him up.
Girl Anachronism: OMGZANGST!!1![info]lp_drumline7 on February 11th, 2006 06:39 pm (UTC)
I can imagine. Twas quite creative on his part, I'll give him that.
Atalanta Pendragonne: alton brown[info]atalantapendrag on February 11th, 2006 06:47 pm (UTC)
I am so glad that I do not own a potato ricer.

I think I'd better stay out of the kitchen gadget section of BED, BATH, AND BEYOND. That's just a little too beyond.
Girl Anachronism[info]lp_drumline7 on February 13th, 2006 05:09 pm (UTC)
*laughs* It DOES add a whole new dimension to that store now, I must say.
Atalanta Pendragonne[info]atalantapendrag on February 13th, 2006 05:38 pm (UTC)
Heh, I've always found kitchen implements to be incredibly suitable for adaptation as instruments of torture.
Girl Anachronism[info]lp_drumline7 on February 13th, 2006 05:47 pm (UTC)
*g* They provide so many creative oppurtunities.
Atalanta Pendragonne: alton brown[info]atalantapendrag on February 13th, 2006 05:50 pm (UTC)
And for cooking too, even.
Girl Anachronism: Going against the grain[info]lp_drumline7 on February 13th, 2006 05:52 pm (UTC)
Cooking is definitely goo fun, I have to admit. I do that a lot.
Atalanta Pendragonne[info]atalantapendrag on February 13th, 2006 06:01 pm (UTC)
I used to. Can't seem to get up the enthusiasm for it anymore.
Girl Anachronism: Going against the grain[info]lp_drumline7 on February 13th, 2006 06:03 pm (UTC)
Mmm... haven't done anything too elaborate lately. Only on the nights when I have to cook supper. Then it's kind of Mac N Cheese or something.
Atalanta Pendragonne[info]atalantapendrag on February 13th, 2006 06:25 pm (UTC)
Heh, that was kind of a specialty of mine at one point. And my great-grandmother's recipe for Beef Stroganoff.
Girl Anachronism: Going insane... going mad[info]lp_drumline7 on February 13th, 2006 06:28 pm (UTC)
Beef Stroganoff? Can't say I've ever had it.
Atalanta Pendragonne[info]atalantapendrag on February 13th, 2006 06:42 pm (UTC)
Oooo, it's good if you make the real stuff instead of the nasty cream-of-mushroom-soup shortcut.

You dip some chunks of stew beef in flour and sear them with chopped onions and mushrooms, then simmer them in beef broth for a while and add a tiny bit of tomato paste, some paprika, worchestershire sauce, heavy cream and sour cream, and serve it over egg noodles.
Girl Anachronism[info]lp_drumline7 on February 13th, 2006 06:44 pm (UTC)
Oh, wow o.O; It does sound great. I'll have to try that one sometime.
Atalanta Pendragonne[info]atalantapendrag on February 13th, 2006 06:56 pm (UTC)
It's not a light dish, but it is very good and not hard to make. It was always what I asked for when my mom let me pick a dinner for a special occasion like my birthday when I was a kid. I have never, ever made it for just me. Last time I made it was over a year ago, when I had some folks crashing with me for a little while while they were looking for an apartment.
Girl Anachronism: Jhonen+puppet=wee;lafhEEE[info]lp_drumline7 on February 13th, 2006 07:03 pm (UTC)
Well, considering when I DO cook, it's for three other people, minimum ... it shouldn't be too hard to dole it out. I know what you mean aout the special dish thing though. Although mine's always been lasagna. ARGH, pasta.
Atalanta Pendragonne[info]atalantapendrag on February 13th, 2006 07:19 pm (UTC)
Pasta's so versatile, though. I can improv amazing stuff with pasta... Italian hot sausage and creamed spinach make a great sauce, for one. And I never forgot how to make my mom's old boyfriend's garlic spaghetti (white clam sauce with chick peas and garlic) even though they broke up when I was 6.
Girl Anachronism: Shiny![info]lp_drumline7 on February 14th, 2006 02:30 pm (UTC)
Mmm ... this is making me hungry. I want something pasta now.
Dammit, it's only nine.

*headdesk* Context. Context is our friend.
You can call me "Nny".[info]waste_lock on February 10th, 2006 11:53 pm (UTC)

It's scary to think about what any babies Johnny had with anybody would be like.

Teaching them not to play with knives would be completly useless.
