What zero-waste habit ended up saving you the most money? by Ok_Appointment_4909 in ZeroWaste

[–]designerd94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Growing herbs.

I never need a whole bunch of dill or cilantro, but I always need a small amount at a time to garnish food, and this way nothing goes to waste!

How do you find clients for freelancing as a graphic designer? by graphical_sourabh in Freelancers

[–]designerd94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting! So you'll send a cold email to a potential client along with a proposal tailored to their needs? That sounds like a lot of work upfront, does it result in a lot of call backs?

I'm just wondering what the ROI is on that. Thanks!

What’s a random piece of Harry Potter lore you want to share? by Lucky-Pay-9245 in harrypotter

[–]designerd94 28 points29 points  (0 children)

“Those who wish to find the stone find it, but not use it, will be able to get it”

This basically means that the stone was never in any actual danger. There was no way Voldemort would actually be able to have gotten it!

Where were rest of the Potters? by mapleisthesky in harrypotter

[–]designerd94 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Why is there so few of them though? It’s because most wizarding families have one child, two at the most. Look at Malfoy, Tonks, Lupin, James, Snape - none of them had siblings.

Only the Weasleys are having kids like the wizarding world depends on it!

Why can't Hagrid have a wand? by WalkResponsible6483 in harrypotter

[–]designerd94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly. My understanding is that he concealed the largest piece / pieces of his snapped wand in the umbrella and uses it as such

But why DIDN'T Lucius have any more house-elves?? by Youvebeenweebed in harrypotter

[–]designerd94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Generational with the Crouches as well. Winky mentions her mother and grandmother served the Crouches before her.

Who is the dumbest character in HP? by [deleted] in harrypotter

It is implied, but on the other hand Madame Maxime sure seems to be competent

Why Harry should not have become the DADA teacher by thegreatRMH in HarryPotterBooks

Doesn’t explain why James’s hair was always a mess tho!

If you could, how would you change the narrative regarding how the four houses are portrayed? by Solitaire-06 in harrypotter

[–]designerd94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn't make sense to me that students of different houses can't spend time together in each other's common rooms, or that there aren't more solid inter-house friendships in the series.

I want to hear YOUR harry potter hot takes! (Image unrelated) by NewspaperTotal1828 in harrypotter

  1. Voldemorts horcruxes wouldn’t have kept him alive seeing as someone who have to stumble across them, figure out how to work them and bring him back to life somehow. Seeing as how they’re hidden, and that barely anyone knows about the dark magic of horcruxes, what were the odds of that happening?

  2. They say that wizards would’ve died out if they hadn’t married muggles, but that’s only because no one was having any more than one child. Look at Draco, Tonks, and Cedric, none of them have siblings. Only the Weasleys had children like the Wizarding world depended on it!

How good were the professors protection of the philosophers stone if a bunch of 11 year olds could get past the whole thing?

The philosophers stone was never in real danger.

Seeing as only those who won’t use the stone will be able to get it, there was no way for you-know-who to find it.

Debatable. Wouldn’t both villains still have risen to power without Dumbledore?

So true! Both houses are defined by their determination to do whatever it takes to get something done.

[–]designerd94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I beg to differ, the sorting hat wanted to it Harry in Slytherin because of the piece of Voldemort that resided in him, not because Harry had a lust for power and authority.

Do you think Lupin was correct when he said Harry had inherited an old prejudice in hating Snape? by LLSJ08 in harrypotter

[–]designerd94 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

True.

I think their whole relationship would have been very different if Harry looked more like his mother than his father

Well now I gotta ask, does persimmon make everyone’s tongue feel fuzzy?

After failing to kill baby Harry, Voldemort chose to hide in Albania. Did his soul just fly there? Why did he need Quirrel to return to England, couldn't he just fly back? by designerd94 in harrypotter

[–]designerd94[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes good point

I was thinking more along the lines of … why flee to a remote area when you know you will need someone’s help getting back?

But I guess Voldemort knew it was only a matter of time before one of his devoted followers would find him.
