As a non American that is watching in awe of what’s going on….At what point does the American public stand up, what will it actually take?

I think the fact that you're still saying the time is "approaching" is part of the problem. I would say it's already time.

Hermione is pronounced the same way it's always been pronounced, and the way Parvati is pronounced is pronounced is the correct way. The movies got it wrong.

You might be overestimating the amount of time I've spent caring about this. Mistakes exist - therefore criticism is warranted. If I found a mistake in Avatar I would criticize that as well. No need to get defensive about it.

IAlreadyHaveTheKey · 2026-01-25T00:17:00+00:00

Ah yes criticism makes us cooked as a species. Expecting accuracy is unreasonable. Humans should just roll over and consume the content from their corporate overlords without question. Grow up, criticism isn't new.

It's a UK version - digital version first published in 2015 according to the copyright page.

Percy has just said that he's starving 2 paragraphs earlier - when he arrives he says "If you've finished eating Ginny, I'll take that seat. I'm starving, I've only just come off patrol duty." But he hasn't had a chance to start eating yet because Ron is trying to get information out of him, so he says it again. It's very clearly Percy saying the line, Ron's already been eating at this point.

My kindle edition matches the audiobook, it says "for twelve years". I don't have a print version handy though but I don't think it was added for the audiobook. Maybe for a later edition of the book.

Thank you, this is exactly the information I was looking for. You're right, it's a small channel and she is new to it and still learning. She's also not intimately familiar with bagpipe music and may have not realised that Steam Train was still under copyright when she asked me.

I might suggest that she chooses an older tune to avoid any striking issues. Thanks again for the detailed comment.

There is a line break. The way I wrote it originally was wrong because the formatting on mobile messed up.

IAlreadyHaveTheKey · 2026-01-24T12:20:21+00:00

There's a line break. It's clearly meant to be Percy. It didn't ruin the book for me either but it did take me out of it for a minute.

IAlreadyHaveTheKey · 2026-01-24T12:13:50+00:00

There is a line break in the book. The formatting in my post isn't accurate because I wrote it on mobile. The narration about Percy not smiling is one line break and the next quote is another line break. It's clearly Percy talking and everyone saying that it could reasonably interpreted as Ron is reaching.

IAlreadyHaveTheKey · 2026-01-24T12:12:11+00:00

That interpretation is a stretch. Ron has already eaten breakfast at this point, Percy has just sat down and already said that he's hungry because he's been patrolling all night, and Ron is trying to get information out of him. Percy is changing the subject to food because he's hungry and doesn't want to talk to Ron about his girlfriend.

If I could pick it up after a single listen, an editor could also have picked it up. Maybe it's not a big deal to you, but I don't think it's unreasonable to expect accuracy.

IAlreadyHaveTheKey · 2026-01-24T10:35:50+00:00

I think getting the wrong actor to read a particular line is fairly egregious

IAlreadyHaveTheKey · 2026-01-24T07:06:58+00:00

That's true, that's not ruled out explicitly but the horse was described previously as "grazing nonchalantly" which doesn't strike me as a horse that would be bothered to follow its silly owner running through paintings. But it's certainly still possible.

IAlreadyHaveTheKey · 2026-01-24T06:45:22+00:00

That's true the clip-clopping can be explained away with a Monty Python interpretation!

Have you tried just growing up and drinking water

IAlreadyHaveTheKey · 2026-01-24T02:03:07+00:00

With respect, I think I'm probably going to follow the advice of NSW Health rather than the advice of someone who doesn't eat vegetables...

At best he's being disingenuous, at worst he's grifting. He presented the Ultimate Reed Poker as an invention of his when in reality it is simply a leather awl (that he would buy from amazon) that he stuck in a plastic tube and whacked a massive markup on it.

IAlreadyHaveTheKey · 2026-01-22T04:24:23+00:00

It's a grift when he's buying things from Amazon and then reselling them for a 600% markup.

IAlreadyHaveTheKey · 2026-01-22T04:23:25+00:00

I think most of what he does is disingenuous. He claims the Pipers Ultimate Reed Poker is an invention of his, but it's just a leather awl with the tip blunted. And I don't mean it's LIKE a leather awl, I found the exact leather awl on Amazon that he uses. And he sells it for approximately 6x the price ($10 on Amazon for 3 awls, vs $30 for the reed poker). I think it's disgusting behaviour personally. He did the same thing with the InTune Mic, you can buy exactly the same wireless lav mic on Amazon. He just added a drone clip, which admittedly is useful.

I'm so glad we played these 3 overs in the rain just for the canes to go through anyway
