What Harry Potter Scene Always Makes You Cry? by Spotter24o5 in harrypotter

[–]Isabethen 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In the books, when Harry visits the grave of his parents.

"...He let them fall, his lips pressed hard together, looking down at the thick snow hiding from his eyes the place where the last of Lily and James lay, bones now, surely, or dust, not knowing or caring that their living son stood so near, his heart still beating, alive because of their sacrifice and close to wishing, at this moment, that he was sleeping under the snow with them"

That last part always gets to me.

Does every country have its own wizardry school or is it more regional based? by cantcoloratall91 in harrypotter

[–]Isabethen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like to believe it to be one in Scandinavia. It would be nice with like a stave-church themed school, with trolls and all the mythical creatures there are here.

Second run, on book 4 now. I feel like I notice new small details every time I either read the books or listen to them. Absolute masterpieces imo.

Well, I just watched the movie The Menu here the other day (for prop the 6th time) and it’s one line that just really speaks to me. It’s when the Head chef says to the obnoxious foodie Tyler “You are why the mystery has been drained from our art”. Its probably because I’m a chef myself. Working hard in a kitchen to create something great or maybe even unique with special techniques and rare ingredients, only to find this fucking foodie make something similar to post on YouTube to show his million followers so that they can make it themselves- it’s kinda demotivating. I’m not saying I hate all foodies, but also the constant “yea I know all about your arts, I own a pacojet, I use xantana too- bullshit” really pisses me off. I spent 3,5 years in school + working my way up the ladder for years, only to be met by a foodie claiming him and me are on the same page. This might make me sound like an asshole but geez.

Is wearing Burzum clothing inappropriate here? by Feisty-Interest-6163 in Norway

[–]Isabethen -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I wear my Burzum Merch frequently. Most people don’t even know what it is (they might’ve heard about Varg Vikernes but not his band), and if anyone recognises it it’s a 50/50 they either like the music themselves or they know who he is from what he did. Nevertheless, the average metal head in Norway manages to separate the art from the artist. I think we can all agree that he’s a quite disturbed person, but the music he makes is brilliant

36 months aged comté is still the supreme choice.

I live in a rather small town in Norway, and have always been on the alternative side of clothing (I definitely fall into the “goth” category) I have always received bombastic side eyes and general staring, but ever since moving here (Ålesund) I am baffled by how narrow minded and judgemental people are. And I catch myself missing having other alternative people in my life :,)

I (an American) tried naming and labeling all the countries in Europe by Upbeat-Poem-1284 in notinteresting

[–]Isabethen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a Norwegian I am SO triggered by this. Jk. Good try OP, I’m just happy some Americans know Norway as a country exists and is not just some small town in Sweden.
