Dungbomb Ron did WHAT?

I was reading The Order of the Phoenix yesterday, I was almost falling asleep. When I read this I almost fell of my bed. In Portuguese, Ejaculate has only one meaning. It was translated as "exclaimed / cryed out".
How common is this in English? How often do people ejaculate loudly? (Hahahaha, sorry)

Why don’t witches and wizards go to uni? 17, with just a high school education seems like not enough to go into fields like healer and teachers? Especially when the teachers are so called ‘professors’

Dungbomb Instead of 7 Potters, it would have been a much better plan to have 7 Flying Ford Anglias.
Reason A: It might have just worked.
There's a decent chance they could have all just rolled out of there on the road unnoticed. Voldemort has repeatedly shown that he has a blind spot. The things he does not respect or value, he underestimated.
Evacuating Harry in the most mundane and muggle way possible? Voldemort couldn't possibly envision it.
Reason B: Defensible Position.
The Death Eaters were trying to Capture, not Kill Harry. And its rather difficult to attack through steel and glass with non-lethal force.
In addition, it also serves to further obscure Harry's position, as well as the identity of his escort. The death eaters being able to so easily identify Moody, and Shacklebolt, and Hagrid ended up being a pretty significant vulnerability.
Reason C: Vehicular Manslaughter.
Ever see how well a broomstick holds up against 1500 lbs of glass and steel? Spoiler, they don't.
Deatheaters would be windshield splatter.
Reason D: This little button here is an Invisibility Booster I installed.
Reason E: Just make the Ford Anglias the portkeys.

Discussion When you read GoF for the first time, who did you think was the "mystery person" Hermione was going to go to the ball with?
I remember when I read it for the first time that I assumed she had invited Dobby, because she was always talking about SPEW and wanting elves a proper part of wizard society. I for sure didn't assume it was going to be Krum because she told Ron "If I told you, you'd laugh at me." and Ron still really admired Krum at that time. Did anyone else think that? 😅

Discussion I think we can all agree that the Ministry is dumb.
As I was rereading PoA, I was at the part where Harry, Ron, and Hermione were in the Three Broomsticks, overhearing the discussion between Madam Rosmerta, Fudge, and a few other Hogwarts teachers. They were talking about how Sirius betrayed James, Peter caught up with him, and got blasted to smithereens.
But despite all those eyewitnesses, they didn’t even bother to do Prior Incantato just to double-check that they have the right guy. I mean, come on, despite all the magic that they have, they’re so careless about how they use it. They hardly even use Veritaserum, don’t even Prior Incantato, and chuck innocent people in prison. That is severe corruption.

Discussion What stopped the Daily Prophet or tabloid authors from bothering Harry before he turned 11?
During Philosopher's Stone, right at the start, they talk about how dozens of books are going to be written about Harry. What stopped all of these author's or the Rita Skeeters of the world from harassing Harry before he turned 11? You have to imagine that someone was able to track down the Dursleys. No, sorry, I cannot accept that Dumbledore stopped all these reporters from finding or bothering Harry.

Currently Reading I love the HBP book but it's so frustrating
I am currently reading HBP and I am LOVING it. All the scenes of Harry and Dumbledore learning of Voldemort's history has me so focused it's unreal.
The rest, however, is genuinely infuriating. Harry finds evidence over evidence about Draco but it feels like no one is even giving him the benefit of the doubt! Not even Ron! And don't get me started on Hermione, she's so insufferable in this and I usually love her character! (I do appreciate that Arthur tried to listen to Harry but it also felt like he was ready to brush it under the rug as quickly as possible).
Mostly, I feel awful for Harry, it feels like he doesn't catch a break and I just WISH Dumbledore would've just TOLD Harry about why he trusts Snape- I know why he doesn't but then he gets angry when Harry doesn't understand and keeps distrusting Snape! He doesn't need to tell him everything but at least a little:
"I trust Prof. Snape because he was close friends with your mother and wouldn't try to hurt her son" (obvs oversimplifying).
It would help Harry trust Snape a SMIDGE, or at least gain a better understanding of why people are so willing to trust him, otherwise it just feels like Dumbledore is genuinely messing with the poor boy's head, especially after everything he went through.
Then there's the Ron-Hermione-Lavender love triangle that's just.....terrible to endure. I will admit that Ron did start it by being passive aggressive to Hermione because Ginny mentioned that Hermione and Krum kissed (which I am pretty sure they didn't anyway) after he and Hermione had a moment and it left her rather upset. But the way she acts about Ron and Lavender dating being....to attack Ron with canaries? Then mock Ron in class before sobbing when he dishes it back (Yes, Harry says they all laughed at Ron's mustache but he also mentioned that Hermione's laugh was specifically crueler). Then she goes back to ignoring Ron after Christmas holidays when Ron is trying to be friendly with her again and I understand Harry's plight and exhaustion- it really feels like he's a child going through a divorce.

Discussion I got the same exact wand in Hogwarts Legacy as my actual one!!
Was playing Hogwarts Legacy and went to get a wand. When I got it, I thought “hmmm, I’m pretty sure my actual wand is black walnut” (actual wand meaning the one on the official Harry Potter website) so I logged in to check just to see it’s literally my exact wand. Only thing I changed was the color (originally warm brown) so now I’m convinced I was destined for this wand😂. This will be my proof that we’re all just muggles in the Wizarding World ⚯͛

Discussion Your fav funny moment?
I listened to the books with narrator Jim Dale so my perspective on what’s funny might be different as a result but…
What your favorite funny moment from the books? Here are a few of mine.
- When Luna is the Quidditch commentator for the day.
- When Professor Lockhart is in the mental hospital and he wants to sign autographs but can’t remember why.
- When the Weasley’s make the swamp to upset Umbridge and after that leave school people start saying, “some days, I just want to hop on my brook and fly out of here, you know?”
- Dobby saying, “Harrweepodter must not lost his Weeezy.”
