chapter 21 to chapter 28



"Wands are only as powerful as the wizards who use them. Some wizards just like to boast that theirs are bigger and better that other people's."
ROFL
priceless!

Ted ;_; Never thought I ought to fear for you

Remus, your nickname is LAMEZ

JKR, would you stop one minute with the bloody WW2 reference? I'm tired of it already. I didn't need any France Libre TSF into my HP book.

HOLY FUCKING SHIT

You know, that was rather a waste of poor Peter's death.

Whee! I like it when you're being smart Harry!

JKR, every times you mention the gateway to Nurmengard, God kills a kitten.

"Well, he's not my type, but he'll do," said Harry. - XDDD Sometimes I think JKR makes these kinds of lines on purpose

I shall not mention the golden rods that are the Probity Probes because I'm too busy laughing my ass off

dear me, so Nagini really is a horcrux, whaaaaaa?

Confirming that I totally adore Aberforth (and his goat) "Did he, now? Nice job, I hope? Pleasant? Easy? Sort of thing you'd expect an unaqualified wizard kid to be able to do without overstretching themselves?" ♥ ♥
I bet he was a Slytherin

Does Nurmengard have a special meaning? It sounds familiar but I can't figure it out.

The sonority of the word obviously evocates Nuremberg which was famous both for holding several first Nazi meetings, and for being the place of the post war Nazi trials (there a big movie about Nazism called "From Nuremberg to Nuremberg")

The reference to the gate to Nurmengard with the tag line "For the Greatest Good" is an obvious reference to Aushwitz and its gateway which had written on it "Work sets you free".

So just one among many unsubtle WW2 references. You could do a drinking game out of them.

I see. Thanks for explaining it. I did get a feeling of Nazi Germany phobia but I didn't understand the references.
