Problem: When presented with three bottles filled of unknown liquid, find the one that will properly alleiviate induced pruritus, make use of it, and use newfound ease to take revenge on the inducer.

Materials:3 bottles of unknown substances

How the hell is something more liquid than water?

[bootme]

Lower viscosity upon pouring, mainly, though I hypothecise that a goodly portion of that is related to the precipitate and slow removal of same.

And given that I believe most people would consider something that poured faster to be more liquid, especially when in comparison to a substance of higher viscosity (I believe we can all agree that water is more liquid than pitch), I decided to use it as a simple shorthand. Forgive me if you were deficient in fluid dynamics, it's not a common field of study among those of pure wizarding background, you can't be blamed for your woeful ignorance.

So, basically, you're making up words because you misused a phrase.

You probably don't know how to perform a backwards Snooten's roll, though, so I'll let that comment on my 'woeful ignorance' go.

[bootme]

Point me to a single word I made up, my misspelling of 'hypothesise' notwithstanding.

And neither do I know, nor do I care.

You're so unbelievably funny when you actually seem to believe you've made a point, you know. Now, is there a purpose to this, other than the fact that you misunderstood a term and feel like treating me, once more, as the cause of ills in this world?

[angelchaser]

Since you're using what people commonly accept to be true as your basis, I suppose the fact that most people assume water to be, basically, the definitive liquid means little to you? But Merlin forbid you have one line of faulty fucking reasoning in your snot-covered brain.

And you don't care, much as I honestly don't give a shite about half the things that come out of your quill, but you keep writing anyway despite the wishes of three-quarters of the people who actually read these journals.

I'm so fucking glad I amuse you. Piss off.

[bootme]

Most people are morons, you know. And I don't really tend to consider there ever being a point beyond which there is nothing and, thus, something can always be 'more' something than something.

And, love, if you don't give a shite? Why did you care enough to read carefully enough to pull out a single term which you considered misused, in the entire structure up there? And, also, not touch on any of the other things in there, like the fact that I did not properly remove all possible variables on what I was faced with, though my slapdash approach did, in fact, do the job.

And 'piss off' is an odd and ironic type of term when used in a phrase written in my journal, you know. If either of us should, 'piss off', then...

[angelchaser]

I hope you're including yourself in that most, then. Of course there's a point beyond which there is nothing.

Why do you care enough to pick at what I say? I'm tired and alone and the glaring inconsistency in what you wrote jumped out at me. I don't need to be lectured by you, I've gotten quite enough of those lately. I'm so glad to find out life isn't a fucking Muggle lab practical. You can fart around all you like in Moody's house all you like, but it's not like you're actually helping out anyone, not even yourself.

Fuck the fuck off, then. I'm going to sleep.

I am not most people, but I am a person and, thus, at times a moron. And, given that there are even an infinite number of infinities, there is always something more
