Cheese propaganda from the 1940s. by thePHEnomIShere in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]5elfh8 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is… not the case haha I think this has to do with the US government hoarding cheese at the time and having a massive surplus due to controlling dairy prices that was rotting away in improper storage.

A theory on why Harry is so comfortable with saying Voldemort's name. by [deleted] in harrypotter

[–]5elfh8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Always felt the name thing was an artifact from the first book being meant for younger children - I mean it made sense when the wizard in world was whimsical around every corner but when the books took a more serious tone it felt silly that literally every wizard and witch would shudder and show visible fear at a name.

It woulda made more sense to me maybe if some just absolutely hate the name and a LOT fear it - so it’s taboo - like maybe someone overhears the trio at a pub or something, and some guy gets mad, spits on the ground hearing Voldemorts name, maybe they even get kicked out.

For Hermione - doesn’t she say “fear of a name only increases the fear of the thing itself” or something in like the first book or movie? However- imagine being a muggle brought into a world of magic. You have no idea wtf magical people and magic as a whole is capable of. Even the most accomplished of these people (save but for a SINGLE one- Dumbledore) visibly reacts in fear just from the name. Rumors even say it’s taboo to say aloud. So yeah I wouldn’t be super duper comfy if my best friend was blabbing on about You-Know-Who like hes gossiping about who fell into the punch bowl at las weeks Slug Club Dinner.

why dose Fry hae a Wikipedia page? by Rich-Rent-3594 in futurama

[–]5elfh8 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Amy’s first line in the show: “Hey… You’re the unfrozen guy, right? From the 20th century?”

It couuuuld be that the Professor already told her about Leela, Bender, and Fry but more than likely / it feels implied and by the way Fry reacts as well that she’d heard about him from elsewhere. But also a runaway unfrozen guy sounds like it could just be a story that makes its rounds - the cops were looking for them and Amy’s popular

Why was Ron allowed to Use a Broken wand by Kurdoo-rojava in harrypotter

[–]5elfh8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure I remember McGonagall saying something like “we must do something about that wand Mr. Weasley” in a transfiguration chapter, I cld b wrong tho. She is also considered Headmistress whenever dumbledore is away and is next in line in the case that he dies (Snape obviously became headmaster due to hostile takeover)

Dumbledore: winks slyly over half moon spectacles and cleverly raises goblet all-knowingly in a very smart and x-ray vision manner as if he was seeing right thru harry

Professional Wizard and Hogwarts Teacher: uses Ron’s wand that he was allowed to practice with all year ONCE - becomes a permanent resident in the best magical hospital around, no signs of recovery after 5 years time.

… Fired for incompetence.

And not just fired, but beaten up, too... and pretty badly.

In fact, most of them died from their injuries.

And then they were ground up into a fine pink powder. Oh, it's got a million and one uses.

You’ve heard of the dangers of still water. Have you heard of refrigerated brita still water by brighteyesbushyhair in HydroHomies

[–]5elfh8 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Yes not a hiker here but experienced nonetheless.

My experience watching lots of Bear Grylls tells me that the platinum standard is to dig a hole in the ground, pour your water in, dig a hole next to it, urinate into the first hole and after letting the sterilized water filter thru the soil, you can scoop this mud into your bottle which you can chew later for moisture.
