Top 10 Memes Of The Month

Chapter 20

Hello there! Welcome back to Top Ten Memes Of The Month, the only chapter in this magazine that is absolutely guaranteed to get a laugh out of you. No pressure or anything… (But seriously, laugh. Or else.) Ha-ha, who said that? Not me. Totally. Well, anyways! Let’s get started :)


Can I just say that when the trio used Polyjuice Potion to break into the Ministry, it was one of my favourite moments in Deathly Hallows? Obviously, it must have been very stressful—and of course it all went downhill from there… but it was just so funny! Mafalda Hopkirk, Albert Runcorn, and Reg Cattermole, you will forever be iconic. They made for plenty of hilarious moments—like Reg’s wife or Arthur thinking that Runcorn was ‘threatening’ him!


Wow, Remus was really going through it. No wonder he was so exhausted on the train—there was a full moon about to occur that very night! And then he had to wake up and teach the next morning? Someone give this man a raise (and some chocolate, of course). What a dedicated professor!


I wholeheartedly agree with this meme. There are so many irreplaceable actors whose characters I can’t imagine being played any better. I mean, Helena Bonham Carter and Emma Watson always come to mind because of their amazing performances. And props to Richard Griffiths—his Vernon Dursley was just as awful as I imagined him to be.


Honestly, at this point, I wouldn’t be surprised if Hagrid and Newt are the reason for half of the Forbidden Forest as well. Some people sneak food in the cinema, but these two? They snuck some very questionable animals into Hogwarts. Newt has been known for some rather eccentric animals…and the same with Hagrid (Blast-Ended Skrewts, anyone? Anyone?) so it wouldn’t come as a shock if they had at least some degree of involvement with our beloved squid.


Woah, I can’t believe I never noticed this! Some fans still debate over what Neville forgot, since apparently his robes are next to him in the movie, but c’mon, they aren’t on like everyone else’s. Either way, I would kill for a Remembral of my own—I can be slightly absent-minded myself. Though, I wouldn’t much have liked for Malfoy to steal it and have an exhilarating broom chase to get it back!


Oh, how I love #ExplainAFilmPlotBadly. Here’s my rendition: Middle-aged man spends his entire adult life bullying a child because he got rejected when he was younger. Ooh! Nerd with bushy hair and ginger boy have adventures with famous orphan. Wait, what about: bald guy holds a grudge against a baby for nearly two decades? You get my point. The book-specific ones are even funnier!


Ah, yes. The wise, ancient and all-knowing Sorting tiramisu. It shall tell you whether you belong to coffee, cocoa, mascarpone, or sugar. Isn’t it just the best when food looks funny? Also, totally unrelated, but I love the fork outline on the plate. You can tell that someone really likes their cocoa powder. Definitely valid—like Remus, I’m a sucker for chocolate!


This one just made me chuckle. Of course, this was an adorable scene, but my internal thoughts would have been the same (more or less) if Harry had said that to me. Speaking of, we definitely should’ve had more humorous and honest friendship moments between the trio. That’s what makes a character real!


The looks on Dumbledore's and Voldemort's faces are killing me. This photo is hilarious, because if these characters had actually stumbled upon each other, it certainly would not have ended with a fun group photo. Like, this makes Bellatrix look sweet, and I feel like there’s something really, really wrong with that, no?


I apologize for ending on such a downer. I imagine George to be Fred’s best man, and we all know that’s never happening. However, this joke is so George Weasley that I couldn’t not include it, right? Plus—and don’t fight me on this—it’s better than “I’m holey.” Sorry, but that was a bit of a bad one, George (Fred was right). Still, we do have to give him credit—the man had just lost an ear, after all.

With that, we are unfortunately finished with memes for this month. Don’t let yourself get bummed out yet though, because we still have quite a few chapters left in this month's issue! Bye-bye, and make sure to read on!
