Wizards used to shit where they stood and make it vanish before muggle toilets - Hogwarts is one massive outhouse.

Twitter rips into Harry Potter fan site's claim that young wizards at Hogwarts used to 'relieve themselves where they stood then vanish the evidence' before introduction of Muggle plumbing

Yesterday the fan site Pottermore, known for providing nuggets of information from author J.K Rowling, revealed that before that age of Muggle plumbing methods, Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry did not have bathrooms.

The bizarre and somewhat distasteful snippet of information meant that witches and wizards would simply relieve themselves wherever they stood.

The unsavoury piece of trivia has now led to more than 52,000 responses on Twitter from fans wishing the information had not been tweeted at all.

The tweet, which seemed to ask more questions than it answered, led to avid readers of the popular fantasy novel poking holes at the confusing theory.

Some asked if wizards would simply defecate in their pants while others asked what would happen to younger students who were not capable of performing the vanishing spell.

More importantly, where did all of the shit go? Did wizards start global warming?

 

[The Great Citracett]

TIL: Hogwarts is in India.

 

[OhGoy]

i wish someone would use their magic to make the shit known as "the harry potter fanbase" vanish

 

[Tootsie Bear]

Well, when you gotta go, you gotta go! Wizard or muggle!

Never thought I'd make an "Envy" reference.

It doesn't vanish, it just relocates back into JK Rowling's head so she can spew it all over Twitter where it can never truly disappear.

I figured that something like this was the reason starships in Star Trek didn't have restrooms.

Buckle up, Harry Potter fans, because J.K. Rowling’s latest bombshell about the series definitely isn’t doing anything for inclusivity: The bestselling author has revealed that Dementors are the wizarding world’s version of Italians.

Yikes. This is a huge step backward for society. Looks like the road for all communities to get proper representation just got a little longer.


Fans of the series were in for a rude surprise when they logged onto Twitter this morning and saw that Rowling had said the evil, soul-sucking creatures represent Italians in the Harry Potter universe:

 

[Shokaract]

Why can't they vanish the shit before it leaves their body. Like, you feel like you gotta go, so you just point the wand at your ass and make the contents disappear. Saves one a lot of squatting and wiping.

The Minoans developed plumbing before the time of Christ. Wizards were some lazy fucks.

 

[IV 445]

Why?

 

[Nekromantik]

Why?

Because JK Rowling is still milking this franchise long after the cows dried up.

Edit: I didn't know about this word filter, but it still works.

 

[Tranhuviya]

Why?

Because some creative types don't know when to stop.

I read the books, for being such a powerful secret society that basically runs everything, wizards are borderline retarded.

Household electricity and internal combustion engines are like cold fusion to them and wizards like Ron's dad are practically shunned for trying to even understand the basics.

It's no surprise they never even devised an outhouse or latrine.

IIRC don't they have spells that literally torture people to death but criticize muggles for using guns?

Why?

Because autists can never ever let go.

The best car in the wizarding world is a Ford Anglia, which in 1953 to 1959, had 38 rampaging English horses under it's nose.

As compared to say, a 1960 Ford Falcon, which had 90 Australian brumbies or American mustangs.

I'm actually surprised we haven't heard more about the Patil sisters continuing this proud hogwarts tradition.

Fans of the series were in for a rude surprise when they logged onto Twitter this morning and saw that Rowling had said the evil, soul-sucking creatures represent Italians in the Harry Potter universe:

... why would some evil monster be a representation of Italians? They don't even have any of the negative stereotypes of Italians; if anything, they are the opposite. It's like saying Vampires represent Canadians.

I figured that something like this was the reason starships in Star Trek didn't have restrooms.

Waste management in a vacuum is also an incredibly difficult engineering challenge so its not surprising they just ignore it
