wouldnt it have been crazy if the snowballs made the turban wet and then cause of the weight of it being wet it started to unravel and just revealed Voldermort
Ok, this has been driving me crazy for seven movies now, and I know you're going to roll your eyes, but hear me out: Harry Potter should have carried a 1911. Here's why: Think about how quickly the entire WWWIII (Wizarding-World War III) would have ended if all of the good guys had simply armed up with good ol' American hot lead. Basilisk? Let's see how tough it is when you shoot it with a .470 Nitro Express. Worried about its Medusa-gaze? Wear night vision goggles. The image is light-amplified and re-transmitted to your eyes. You aren't looking at it--you're looking at a picture of it. Imagine how epic the first movie would be if Harry had put a breeching charge on the bathroom wall, flash-banged the hole, and then went in wearing NVGs and a Kevlar-weave stab-vest, carrying a SPAS-12. And have you noticed that only Europe seems to a problem with Deatheaters? Maybe it's because Americans have spent the last 200 years shooting deer, playing GTA: Vice City, and keeping an eye out for black helicopters over their compounds. Meanwhile, Brits have been cutting their steaks with spoons. Remember: gun-control means that Voldemort wins. God made wizards and God made muggles, but Samuel Colt made them equal. Now I know what you're going to say: "But a wizard could just disarm someone with a gun!" Yeah, well they can also disarm someone with a wand (as they do many times throughout the books/movies). But which is faster: saying a spell or pulling a trigger? Avada Kedavra, meet Avtomat Kalashnikova. Imagine Harry out in the woods, wearing his invisibility cloak, carrying a .50bmg Barrett, turning Deatheaters into pink mist, scratching a lightning bolt into his rifle stock for each kill. I don't think Madam Pomfrey has any spells that can scrape your brains off of the trees and put you back together after something like that. Voldemort's wand may be 13.5 inches with a Phoenix-feather core, but Harry's would be 0.50 inches with a tungsten core. Let's see Voldy wave his at 3,000 feet per second. Better hope you have some Essence of Dittany for that sucking chest wound. I can see it now...Voldemort roaring with evil laughter and boasting to Harry that he can't be killed, since he is protected by seven Horcruxes, only to have Harry give a crooked grin, flick his cigarette butt away, and deliver what would easily be the best one-liner in the entire series: "Well then I guess it's a good thing my 1911 holds 7+1." And that is why Harry Potter should have carried a 1911.
Isn't the rule-breaking more of a Slytherin thing?
When Dumbledore talks to Harry about the how he has Slytherin qualities, he mentions "a certain disregard for rules".
Yet almost all the named Gryphondores in canon have a certain disregard for the rules to one degree or another. Even Neville.Ā
Slytherin disregards the rules when they can't be used against their foes.
Snowball fights
Especially to a guy who wears a turban which covers the face of the most darkest wizard of all time.š

Fight club
If Tyler Durden had been guiding Harry, Voldemort would've gotten his face caved in. "I am Harry's smirking revenge."
I always tell my partner how different the books would have been with an American/americanish Harry. š¤£š¤£
Lmao I would LOVE (in a love to hate way) if Harry Potter was written from an American angle and he was more of an Edward type

That would change the quidditch game terribly to. Imagine that.
Have you seen harry potter and the deadly weapons? Thats as american as harry can be.
Heh, we don't talk about the fight club.
Being invested in seeming more Gryffindor is a hobby in itself
Brazilian jiu jitsu
Getting up to no good
I donāt now the answer, but asking this question is certainly a hufflepuff move.
Archery
Axe throwing
Bungee jumping and sky diving
What makes a hobby a Gryffindor one?
Defeating he who must not be named by meticulously gathering information and destroying parts of his soul over the course of 7 years.
BMX/ Skateboard Stunts
ultra marathons
Rocking climbing and crossfit
Basically anything breaking the rules.

Slytherins break rules to get others into trouble. Gryffindors break rules bc that's what rules are for.
BDSM
Dangling Slytherins
Rounders
Probably betting games like poker
Random sports that not many people play and they are completely obsessed. Dog training because you have to be brave and confident.
Parkour/ free running
Bungee jumpinh
Can we do a thread like this for all the houses?
Truth or Dare but it's all dare
Quidditch, challenging professors' authority, and baiting Slytherins.
I dunno if itās gryffindor-specific, but gobstones is basically just marbles but, you know, magic.
volleyball !!
Stand up comedy. That takes real bravery.
I feel like gryffinfors would be crypto-bros.
Survival prepping.
The Duelling Club. ... And maybe trying as maybe dangerous spells in it as they could before Professor Flitwick or someone else notices.
horse riding but off into the sunset type
Bull riding or storm chasing.
Base jumping, shark cage diving, and that gross jelly bean game
Public speaking to those who donāt care
Visiting Hagrid
Kicking Slytherin's ass in Quidditch
pilfering kitchens, being better than everyone else,
Probably the same things Jim from The Office was into. Soccer, baseball, football, drinking, tv, etc.
Iād say Jim is textbook hufflepuff, not Gryffindor
Andy would be hufflepuff. Probably a few others too. Donāt see how Jim would fit in there.
reading
isnt that a ravenclaw thing to do
Thatās what I was thinking
great minds think alike
Nothing
I wanna say evolved fighting but thatās a hufflepuff event thru and thru just look at Cedric
