Some of them that really blew my mind:

> Rowling said if Voldemort saw a boggart it would take the shape of his own corpse, since death was his greatest fear.

>The Malfoys last name comes from the Latin “maleficus,” which means evil doing.

>Dementors are a physical representation of Rowling’s experience with depression.

> Voldemort is incapable of love because he was conceived under a love potion.

Apparently Rowling is a hard determinist. I would have thought choosing to split his soul in half 6 times would have had more to do with it.

>The bit about Voldemort and love potions

Is she really stupid enough to think that this would not be uber common? If Wizard Land were real literally EVERYONE would be using love potions to get love. There would be hundreds of Voldemorts walking around.

Rowling confirmed for retard, but we already knew that

yeah but you speak english and there is so much latin in english that you will make the connection even if you dont realize it

even if you dont know what mal means as a prefix you will associate 'mal' with ill will

>malfoy
>malice
>malevolence
>malpractice

malfoys name is supposed to be a charactonym its not some cryptic fucking clue

>> No.4968344

>In the Harry Potter universe, there are an estimated 3,000 wizards living in Great Britain.

What the fuck?? That can't be correct. 3,000 shouldn't even be enough students to fill god damn Hogwarts, let alone all the people that would work at the ministry and all the other normal adult wizards.
