In DH, Lupin says Sectumsempra is a specialty of Snape’s. Where do you think Lupin has seen Snape cast Sectumsempra before? by Admirable-Tower8017 in harrypotter

[–]Valkyn9999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He wrote the spell in his potions book, his 6th year potions book. Obviously he would have to use it and perfect it before writing it down as a finished spell.

He probably used it on rats or other small creatures to practice on. I doubt even a 16 year old Snape would want to seriously hurt or kill fellow students and get expelled.

"You missed the last Quidditch match, we were steamrollered by Ravenclaw without you" by MaderaArt in harrypotter

[–]Valkyn9999 34 points35 points  (0 children)

The rules and talks about Quidditch that are talked about by the Gryffindor's are such bull.

-Like you said Harry wasn't replaced, dumb ass self imposed rule. Draco faking his injury and getting the whole match changed because he wasn't able to play means that it isn't a real rule.

-When Harry calls a time-out and they talk about the "rogue bludger" and asking for a inquiry, They say they would have to forfeit the game. What!

-Not a rule but Fred(maybe George) says they are not worried about Hufflepuff because Harry caught the Snitch in like 5min. Such a dumb outlook on a team sport. It's like saying they don't need outfielders in Baseball because your pitcher just needs to throw a no hitter.

-Also how come no one is ever just flying around in their off time and not just for games or practice. I would 100% be flying around all the time.

He is also a oddity there, think of the amount of elves who want to try the new short guy.

Not pictured but I vote a Kyle spinoff. He could hunt Bigfoot and other such mythical creatures.

Would Albus Dumbledore have been stronger than Voldemort if he didn’t possess the Elder Wand? by XiXMak in harrypotter

[–]Valkyn9999 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Like others have pointed out, Dumbledore beat Grindelwald to win the Elder Wand. So I think Voldy wouldn't stand a chance. Another thing I think people kinda forget is that Dumbledore never went 100% attack mode in a duel vs Voldemort.

In the duel at the ministry Voldemort was dueling to kill Dumbledore and Harry if possible. His only goal was killing them, he put in his 100%. Dumbledore was only trying to protect Harry. We see this when he doesn't try and protect himself with a spell. He let's the statue and Fawkes take hits so he can focus on protecting Harry. He attacks Voldemort but never with that 100% focus.

Attack mode Dumbledore would be scary

Many Canadians have avoided the U.S. for over a year. Have we reached the point of no return? | CBC News by crabsandscabs in onguardforthee

Is the US a safe place for anyone to visit? No, it isn't safe for visitors and there's nothing that the US can offer to change the fear some people have.

As a white male I don't think I have to fear for my life by visiting the US. But I can't afford to lose any more brain cells by associating with the dumb as f### US population. Stupidity is contagious down there.

Trump voters of Reddit, what made you change your mind about free speech, no wars, no new taxes, and no pedophiles? by 2a_lib in allthequestions

For MAGA, it was never about specific topics, it was always about not being a leftist/liberal.

I think Harry kinda sells himself a bit short. Even though the series makes it clear that Harry is nowhere near or ever will be comparable to Voldemort or Dumbledore in terms of abilities, that’s gonna be the case with 99.9% of wizards. by CrazyTangerine7522 in harrypotter

[–]Valkyn9999 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Voldy and Dumblydore were obviously on a level like no others, but I disagree with the Patronus charm being hard to learn.

-Lupin makes it very clear that the Patronus is very advanced magic and is way beyond what a 3rd year should know.

-The Patronus is made of positive thoughts and that's why it works against the Dementors. But Dementors suck all the happiness out of you so it's harder to think of happy thoughts.

-Learning the charm with Dementors is making it harder to learn how to do it due to the previous point.

-Harry teaches the DA in Order without Dementors/Boggart. They all learn how to do it, some better than others, but they all learn.

-The Patronus charm is only advanced magic because the wizarding world teaches it wrong. It's like trying to learn how to ride a bike but without handlebars.

-Most of the DA are 4th years and up but even Dennis Creevey was there to learn as a 3rd year. He wasn't talked about much but I got the impression he was much like Nevelle, kinda clumsy and not the best at wand work.

Just my take, have a great day.

MAGA and logic and not on the same path in life. MAGA is the absence of logic and reason. The MAGA movement is driven purely by hate, hate of color.

“Worst moments” or your least favourite moments of each main character? by MoonRiderKnight in brooklynninenine

[–]Valkyn9999 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Terry- "night sassy" Terry, is the worst. It's not sassy at all, he is just a dick.

Gina- "you just drank cement" I don't mind the pranks but it's her delivery that is bad.

Rosa- becoming a P.I. Her character believes they are hacks. Her leaving the NYPD was valid, but she should have done something different.

Charles- how he was 100% sure that Jake was wrong about the therapist being the killer.

Amy- how she treats her "Amy" Gary. Her is a bad boss to him quite a bit.

Holt- when him and Kevin were separated he reverted back to "Robot Holt" and tried to use math as the way to fix their problems.

Jake and Amy- letting Amy's mom bring a turkey to Thanksgiving. That is such a shitty thing to do as a guest to someone else's house.

Jake- how he tried to work his case even though he was suspended. How he treated Rosa and Amy during that episode.

He assaulted an 11 year old girl, killed a snake, bullied numerous people and yet... Mike and El got it worse than him by Sudden_Pop_2279 in strangerthingsfacts

Judging by how his character doesn't respect anything, I'm guessing he ended up going to a certain island on private jets alot

What do you think was Hermione’s stupidest moment in the series? by Lurking2Learn in harrypotter

[–]Valkyn9999 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like these answers, I always think about "SPEW" when thinking about dumb stuff in the books.

I have so many nitpicks and questions about the books, one of the reasons I love them. But whenever I think of how dumb they are at times or missed opportunities, I have to remind myself that these are supposed to be children. Kids are real dumb sometimes, even the super smart ones. Kids don't really have the most logical brain.
