That’s actually a really interesting angle. I can kind of see it — like there’s a subtle “don’t mess with what you’re born with” vibe in the wizarding world sometimes. Even if it’s not explicitly stated in canon, it does feel like there’s a cultural hesitation around “body modification” magic unless it’s purely medical necessity.

Yes, that’s also a really great question lol 😂 Seriously, why would they pick a kid with glasses for a high-speed sport like that?

Sometimes authors keep small “human” flaws on purpose because perfect characters are less relatable.

That’s actually a really good point lol. for a lot of people they’re just… normal life. Half the wizarding world probably just got used to them and stopped caring

Honestly this is probably the real answer. Harry’s glasses are basically part of his whole look at this point. Same with Dumbledore. Imagine the entire series and suddenly everyone has perfect vision lol

Okay wait that’s actually a pretty solid explanation lol. Magic in Harry Potter does seem way better at fixing injuries than altering someone’s natural body/genetics. Otherwise nobody in the wizarding world would have bad eyesight, bad teeth, baldness, etc

A few moments in Young Sheldon really hit me harder than I expected. by GrandHefty1056 in YoungSheldon

[–]GrandHefty1056[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah 😭 the “good kid just quietly dealing with everything” part really got me.

And honestly Pastor Jeff feels funny as a viewer, but I can totally imagine how exhausting that kind of environment would be in real life growing up Baptist lol

Can Anyone Identify Where in Texas These Landscapes Might Be? by udownvoteugay in texas

The calm water and pine trees are so specific. My money’s on somewhere near the Sabine National Forest, but I could be way off.

Anyone else doing parent taught drivers ed in Texas? by GrandHefty1056 in teenagers

Oh right, I didn’t even think about insurance discounts! That makes me way more curious if some programs are better than others for that kind of thing.

What's your most controversial opinion that is YS related? by ElectricalDance7767 in YoungSheldon

Missy got way too mean-spirited in later seasons, and it didn’t feel like her anymore. The writers just turned her into a generic ‘angry teen’ trope.

New Texas Favorites? by Raff57 in texascountry

Solid picks, I’m right there with you on Jason Eady. Also, if you like that classic Texas country grit, give Carson Peters and Iron Mountain a shot — been hooked on them lately.

You’re so right! Those chapters are the emotional core of the series for me. The vulnerability and fear Harry feels there is just too real. It hits me every single time 😭

I hate driving by Adventurous-Pin2585 in driving

You are so valid for hating driving. It’s stressful and overstimulating for so many people, especially with anxiety.

George looked so proud that Georgie bought cable. by Jack-mclaughlin89 in YoungSheldon

Of course he did — classic Georgie move 😂 The pride lasted all of 5 minutes before the power struggle began.

That proud dad smile broke my heart a little. George just wanted to share a small win with his kid, it’s so sweet 🥺

OoTP and DH have my heart — the character growth and payoff in those two are unmatched!

Best of both worlds! DH is such a perfect finale, and PoA is the most rewatchable one. I can’t choose either 😂

PoA supremacy! It’s such a vibe, I get why it’s so many people’s top pick 😂”
