Shit's all sorts of different now.

Chuck Norris counted to infinity - twice.

My favorite.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I'm partial to:

When Chuck Norris does a pushup, he isn’t lifting himself up, he’s pushing the Earth down.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Still, shouldn't it be, "After Neville punched it, it was called "Horizont Alley."

No. It was horizontal until he punched it and made it into Diagon Alley. Unless you're trying to impose chronological continuity on this thing.

I've got to stop reading these:

Chuck Norris has the greatest Poker-Face of all time. He won the 1983 World Series of Poker, despite holding only a Joker, a Get out of Jail Free Monopoloy card, a 2 of clubs, 7 of spades and a green #4 card from the game UNO.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Unless you're trying to impose chronological continuity on this thing.

Kinda, yeah. I don't know what I was thinking...

I still think it's funnier my way

Chuck Norris can touch MC Hammer!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I'll be sad when Gud finishes the audio-book. It's been so fun to virtually read along with him.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

So apparently J.K. Rowling said in an interview that Dumbledore was gay.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Also from that interview:

In answer to the question "Did Hagrid marry?" Rowling replied that sadly, no. The half-giant had a flirtation with a giantess but she found him "a tad unsophisticated" and the relationship never went forward. In response to the audience's groans of dismay, Rowling said, jokingly, "O.K., I'll write another book." And when the audience continued to express disapproval added, "at least I didn't kill him."

heh.
