is that no teacher ever called him James by accident, or that Ron never was called “Bill-, eh Charl-, no Per-, argh!”
As a younger sister who knows this struggle all too well: THIS IS REAL. Pretty sure 70% of my past teachers still think I’m called what my sister is called in fact.
Imagine Fred being called Percy by McGonagall accidentally and then he gets so offended that he refers to her by “Professor [insert any other name but McGonagall” for the rest of the year, costing Gryffindor a considerable amount of points one at a time.
From then on, she vows to just call them all Mr Weasley.
Until Ginny comes along and she calls her Mr Weasley by accident and Ginny “accidentally’ calls her Sir and it starts again.
It’s lightly off-topic but also slightly relevant but I have long cherished this mental image of Professor Snape saying something snappish to Harry in just the wrong tone of voice and Harry absentmindedly, wearily, and completely accidentally responding with, “Yes, Aunt Petunia.”
yo whatever happened to gladiators n coliseums n shit? when did we decide that blood sports were bad? im tryna see two men kill each other on pay per view
dont worry im a feminist id pay to see two women kill each other as well
political correctness killed the gladiatorial arena and its disgusting. fucking millennials (400 AD)
gladiators were actually very skilled and expensive to train (not to mention charismatic and popular), so they rarely fought to the death actually; it was more of a… ritualized theatrical combat
the modern equivalent you’re looking for is professional wrestling
Ok but when are professional wrestlers gonna be throwing nets and shit and using swords???
Eris is one of my all time favourite animated characters. It’s been 13 years since I first saw this film and I am still utterly transfixed by the way they animated her. She is absolute heaven.
