i just want you guys to list out your favourite wise cracks... my observation is that a majority of these have been made by fred and george, and ron comes a close second...
i don't know the exact words they use... but here goes anyway...
try THESE on for size...
NUMBER 1:
ron says (something like this... i don't know the exact words...): 'fred and george tried to get me to make an unbreakable wow once... but then dad found out... (blah blah)... he really freaked out... it's the only time i've seen dad as angry as mum... fred reckons his left buttock has never been the same again...'
fred replies: 'excuse me?'
NUMBER 2:
hermione says to ron: 'just because you have the emotional range of a teaspoon, it doesn't mean we all do...'
NUMBER 3:
i think NICK says this to harry: 'all the ghosts are curious about what happened in the ministry and they also know that we (nick and harry) are friendly, but i have decided not to pester you for details. i have informed the other ghosts that i would rather die than breach the sanctity of our friendship'
then ron says: 'which is not saying much seeing as you're already dead...'
nick gets all offended and replies to ron: 'once again you show all the sensitivity of a wart!'
NUMBER 4:
in book 6, during snape's DADA classes, the first time they attempt non verbal spells, snape tries to jinx harry and harry uses a shielding charm, and snape taunts him saying 'we are practicing non verbal spells potter...'
then harry says: 'sorry'
snape, reminding harry to show respect and use the word 'SIR': 'sorry, SIR'
harry (i love this): there is no need to call me SIR, professor!
NUMBER 5:
ron and harry are peeling sprouts at the burrow and since they are underage they can't use magic. the work proceeds very slowly... and fred and george come to watch them. ron asks for help, fred refuses...
fred: 'use knives ron, just the way muggles do it, it's very character building...'
ron: 'you watch.. when i come of age - '
george: 'yes, i'm sure you'll surprise us with hitherto unsuspected magical skills!'
lol... these are some really funny moments! please list yours too... so we can all have a good laff!
