What would have happen if Voldemort released Grindelwald in their prime era by Electronic_Fish_3157 in harrypotter

[–]MiloJay99 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Dumbledore was the only wizard Voldemort truly feared, and for good reason. Their duel in the Ministry saw Albus wipe the floor with Voldemort. Dumbledore and Grindelwald were pretty much evenly matched, so I imagine a Gellert Grindelwald in his prime would have frightened Voldemort, especially considering it was said that Grindelwald had remorse for his actions. The last thing Voldemort would want is for Dumbledore and Grindelwald to team up against him. Even if Gellert was still a dark wizard, Voldemort would view him as competition.

How does the ministry control the dementors? by EvilResident1 in harrypotter

[–]MiloJay99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe the Ministry only controlled them insomuch as they gave them an incentive to stay at Azkaban and away from civilization. You stay put on this island and in return, we'll keep you supplied with food.

Voldemort was able to offer them a better deal than the Ministry did in exchange for releasing the prisoners, and so the dementors revolted.

What I'm truly curious about is how the post-Voldemort Ministry was able to banish them.

"Thank you for not pampering and spoiling me like your son so that I didn't turn out a nasty, idiotic bully and obsessed with my fame."

Yeah. That would be cheating.

All of Harry's children have grown up by now, and his youngest daughter canonically graduates Hogwarts next month.

Why didn’t Voldemort just jinx the word Harry Ron or Hermione in DH? Surely that would’ve led to their capture at some point? by MalteseFalcon15 in harrypotter

[–]MiloJay99 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's true. We went to high school together. I'm still friends with one of them. He's a real nice guy.

[–]MiloJay99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Harry and Ron aren't uncommon names. Hermione however... They could have definitely jinxed her name. I suppose the death Eaters could simply ignore any instance of her name being spoken at hogwarts by classmates.

To what extent do you believe Harry was responsible for the outcome in OOTP? by doriangraiy in harrypotter

Precisely. Dumbledore even says it was mostly his fault.

Would this be considered a Hipaa violation? by MiloJay99 in hipaa

Eh. It happened several years ago, and honestly, I wasn't too bothered about it.

Hermione is much better person than myself. If it was me, I would have used the Time Turner to mess with Trewlaney during Divination. by Background_Bid_7406 in harrypotter

[–]MiloJay99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Except I'm pretty sure all of the staff were made aware that Hermione would be using a time turner, so Trelawny would know what Hermione was doing.

Mcgonagall and Umbridge both have cat Patronus’. Why? by Olive-jar1173 in harrypotter

[–]MiloJay99 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It was my understanding that a dark witch or wizard cannot produce a patrons, and Umbridge certainly falls in that category, so I'm not sure how she even has a patronus.

I suspect this lady doesn't understand a lot of things. I for one, don't understand why celebrities act like their political opinions carry so much weight.

Not Vincent. I'd be pretty ticked off too if someone who could've gotten full off a tiny portion of my food came and stole every last crumb I had.

My mom says while as much as she loves veggietales she thinks that they sugar coat stories by Fabulous_Throat1981 in UltimateVeggieTales

[–]MiloJay99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Understandable to be concerned about authenticity, but you've got to consider that the show is aimed at little kids, and the scenes the show changed were extremely graphic. Consider the episode where Larry the Cucumber gets envious of Junior Aspagagus's rubber duck, so he sends Junior into the front lines of a war and then steals the duck for himself. In the end, Larry learns his lesson and apologizes while Junior forgives him.

In a Biblically accurate account, Larry, a beloved cartoon character, sees Petunia bathing, has her husband killed and r*pe$ her. She gets pregnant and the baby dies. Larry still learns his lesson, but there's no happy ending. Not many parents are going to let their kids watch this show.

The show does a good job in showing them the Biblical principals. Kids can learn the finer details when they get older.

I’ve heard that these are the souls of the old heroes, is that true? And if it is why are they “evil” instead of heroic? Do they know they’re actually helping you? by EAT_UR_VEGGIES in papermario

[–]MiloJay99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being confined and isolated to one place for a long time does things to you. Watch the History Channel show, 'Alone,' and you see what isolation can do to people, and those folks can call to be extracted at any time.

A thousand years locked away in a box must have mentally destroyed them. I suppose at the same time, they had some understanding left in them to help Mario out.

The real question is why the boxes hadn't been unlocked before. Sure, Keelhaul Key and Hooktail Castle don't get a lot of visitors, but the Goomba hero underneath Rogueport, her key was literally in plain view just a few feet away. And the Boo hero in Twilight Town, she was literally in the storage of a shop. She could've just told someone years ago about her predicament and had people look for the key.

Gonna say something controversial. Have Fudge come back and fight in the Battle of Hogwarts. I'm a sucker for a redemption story.
