Probably both, as he always does. :)

This is stunning, Laci.

That is a busy morning, Patton- I'm personally super weirded out by listening to my own voice. Which is why I can't do what you do. Have an awesome weekend-

The weird thing is that this animal can probably flatten me--and yet because I knew nothing about it, it hasn't scared me (yet). Though it probably should.

The weird thing about places is that it changes how things end.

What an epic name for Quidditch captain-- Couldn't be more fitting, no?

Better watch out. People can be merciless. Might want to carry some specs in your pocket anyhow, just in case, you know?

Ah yes ... Bond is everyone's favorite speculation theory. I wouldn't mind seeing Idris Elba in the role.

This is so good! What's it for, Martin?

Good question, Sam- My theory is that this just amps up the mysteriousness of the character. The full-face helmets might also cover up some bad acting 😂? You've given me something to think about. I wrote an essay about why they just have mono-chromatic planets in Star Wars & Dune (link in bio).

LOL. This is hilarious, Gabe. Wish I'm witty with names. The only name that stuck for me is Millenium Falcon. Every other spaceship just has no name.

Curious ... What are some of the worst-ever magical power, Jenny? Might be an interesting read. Thanks for sharing-

This is hilarious, Jon. The thing about Aaron Taylor-Johnson, is that he never had a standout character. His time at the Avengers was almost as good as a cameo. Which is unfortunate.

Thanks for sharing this James- Ron & Hermione had never looked so mature in any other illustrations I've seen. Somehow this makes me feel like a proud parent. Which is strange?

And I'm sure they'll appreciate you for doing that, Andy- :)

Thanks for sharing this, Merlin. Professor Lupin in Wonder Woman totally changed my perception of him. Why is it that it's so hard to see actors as playing something other than their iconic role?

Simba's face is my face whenever someone accuses me of eating all the Oreo cookies. Because of course I did! :)

In your defense, Kelsey--a HP-related question in art history class would be much more interesting than whatever the 'right answer' was. 😂

I've only recently learned about "sus" as well. Which I guess saves a bit of time. But something about 'sus' makes me think of "SOS". And maybe that's exactly the point? Bounce the sos idea with your daughter, Emily, and see if 'sos' will ever take off as a replacement for 'sus' :D

The funniest part is that this historic steam locomotive is more known to be Hogwarts Express than all its history.

Who exactly played Oliver Wood in HP? And what happened to him?

Nothing that a pair of specs can't do, Josh- :)

Did you find out what the answer was, Clarrie? Curious-

I had thought about this, too, Angelo! I think it must've been impossible! But hey I guess sometimes that happens too in real life? Don't know. Maybe it's the thing with 'grass is greener on the other side' so that's how the snyc-ing happens?

Saw this image in this feed and was immediately drawn. Hilarious, Sarah. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Alastair- I haven't read this book but have heard of it. I'll have to add it to my list. What do you like (and not like) about it?

That's unfortunate. Thanks for sharing this-

Agreed. Although admittedly the surprise factor (of him always getting severely beat up but never killed), started to level off after a while. Who knew I could be so heartless and numb? 😅

Anyone ever wonder where the grandparents are in modern classic stories? Sure, it might not be as dramatic. After all, if Indiana Jones' grandma checks in during that snake scene, we wouldn't be as tense. But maybe we'd have a more realistic expectations on the insane pressures to be "self-made"?

I love how they spelled percent as "per cent" back then. This would've made learning math much easier back in the day. 😂
