The intro cards for Futurama have always been one of my favorite parts of the show because people always talk about the old Simpson’s couch gag but this is just pure gold… I mean-
It goes from everything from
and then they made fun of how much everyone reacted to the the infamous ‘dead dog episode’ that I cried about…
not to be dramatic but it will never not bother me that jkr just plays it off like everyone is a-okay after the books. like they were all children fighting in a war. ginny was literally possessed when she was like 11. ron lost his brother. harry was abused for years, repeatedly the victim of attempted murder, saw his friend die at age 14, is an orphan, and has literally lost almost every parental figure he’s had. they’ve all had to kill and see people be killed. like it is genuinely so disheartening and almost insulting as a trauma survivor to see all their pain just sort of… forgotten and shoved under the rug in a favor of a happy ending Especially when harry potter has never shied away from showing ugliness
Its nice that we get to die someday. Imagine being immortal and suddenly you remember all the emberassing things you did in the last 2000 years. Horrible
Me, as a vampire: oh geez
Friend: What’s wrong
Me: Just remembered that time in 1654 when the tavern maid said “Enjoyeth thy meal!” I replied with “Thee as well”
“Have I told you how hideous you look tonight?” Cardan asks, leaning back in the elaborately carved chair, the warmth of his words turning the question into something like a compliment.
“No” I say, glad to be annoyed back into the present. “Tell me.” “I can’t.”
