...what with the Potions expert naturally disabled because Harry was there.

He does have that effect on people. Maybe we've been too hard on dear Albus...

Nah.

...we could maybe imagine all the adults were just too dumb to solve the case that 12-year-old Hermione could. Now 17-year-old Hermione knows she won't be able to solve it...

She's become one of them! She's too old... she's gone for the lipstick...

Mummy and Daddy don’t need to know about pet-the-baby-dragon. That’s our special game!

This just took Hagrid in an entirely new direction for me. *retches*

Do they walk around with a stick down their pants all the time? Somebody really needs to create a holster or something.

Didn't Moody say something about misfirings and better wizards than Harry losing pieces of butt-cheek? Why hasn't someone invented a holster?

You have to wonder about that added security when two blatant murder attempts are indistinguishable from normal school life at Hogwarts.

You can't blame security - this is normal school life at Hogwarts under Dumbledore's protection of Harry.

I guess Wizards go through something like the "dumbening" on The Simpsons. No matter how brilliant you are at 11 you can't be smarter than Harry when you're 30.

It must be true, though - look at those parents on Elm Street - their kids are dying in weird ways (stuffed inside a waterbed mattress? like that's natural?) - but they don't believe anything's wrong. Only the kids believe it, but they're still kids. By the time they hit thirty they'll be dumber than rocks, too.
