We've all had days that just work out the way they are supposed to. The concept that you can put that into a bottle and drink it is what magic is all about. What's your favorite Harry Potter chapter?

Book one, chapter eleven. Titled "Quidditch." As a kid my mom started reading Harry Potter to me, but the first chapter is just Dumbledore whining about his scar shaped like the London Underground and stuff. I thought it was weird. But one Sunday afternoon I was bored so I grabbed the book and looked at the table of contents. I saw chapter eleven was titled some silly made-up word. I flipped to that chapter and read it and thought all the flying magic broomstick games were neat. Then I started at the beginning and read the whole thing. I think it was the first chapter book I read.

The one with the Quirrel twist. I had to put the book down over how amazing it felt to be surprised. Never happened to me ever again in any media; which makes me quite jelly of the people who get strong reactions.

The first (or was it second?) chapter in book 6 was cool too, the description of the shithole where Snape lived was damn nice.

Harry trashing Dumbledores office in 5 was pretty interesting too before the whole dumb prophecy shit reveal.
And in the same book, him following ghosts hoping to talk to Sirius again almost got me in the feelz.

Hey, I'm glad you're enjoying it and all … I just fail how an adult brain is supposed to get the funny out of it. Humour usually works on breaking of a pattern; doing it by writing nonsense sentences feels just stale.

Nigger...you're in a fucking Harry Potter thread. You really wanna ride around on a high horse and pretend you're too cultured to find that shit funny?

>>13193808
It's not about being cultured or some dumb high brown shit. I genuinely don't get how adults can laugh over random sentences or typos (which I doubt is related to some simplistic shit like "lol, they're stooopeed"). I hoped to learn something.

>> No.13194266

>>13193876
Not him but basically if you read those pages and really try to imagine this mad world, the resulting mental image is more absurd than what any real author could ever create. The humor isn't the fact that it's random, but that absurdity. Someone living in a hut full of shrieking furniture? Ron wearing a shirt with a picture of himself, and later proposing to use "Ron magic"? Even if you don't find it funny yourself surely you have to understand why someone else could, either as surrealism or plain madcap joy?

>> No.13194345

>>13194266
Eh, absurdism tends to have sorts of internal logic that enhances the effect, not being randomly absurd. Though fair point, the shitty writing just triggered me too much to see that angle.
