One time, Gryffindor reached exactly 69 house points, and for two whole weeks they managed not to gain or lose any by being as boring as possible. It was finally broken when Hermione was awarded 10 points for some good Charms homework, and Ron was subtracted 20 for yelling “FUCKS SAKE HERMIONE” in response

The Noble House of Black

askwhathasthiscometo:

The ancient and most noble house of Black had three sisters.

The first sister was tall and beautiful.

She had long black hair and favoured her pureblood heritage above all else.

But having a dangerous temper and too much pride collided with reality, so she lost her mind.

The second sister was as fair as her sister was dark.

Like her two older sisters she was beautiful, and took great pride in her family heritage.

But her vanity made her lonely when she lost everything.

The third sister they did not speak of.

For though she resembled her sisters in looks, she did not in heart, so she betrayed her family’s pride.

But this didn’t make her lonely. It made her happy.

I JUST LEARNED ABOUT DANISH NUMBERS ALL OTHER LANGUAGE CRIMES ARE FORGIVEN WE MUST UNITE TO DEFEAT THE TRUE EVIL

WE’VE BEEN TRYING

sincerely, the swedes 

please explain

The Swedes and the Danes are like the French and the English – been at war for hundreds of years, but are now enjoying a peace built on a solid foundation of mutual shade. After becoming acquainted with the Danish numerical system I find myself sympathising with the Swedes.

@imoldbutimstillintothat​ tells me “they call 90 “halvfems” aka half fives and by that they mean 4*20 + 0.5*20. And same goes for 70 which they call halvfjerds. (3*20+0.5*20)”

I’ve read that sentence 3 times and I still don’t understand it

Haha sorry. They, like the French count by scores (quatre-vingt being 80) I think. So halvfems (half fives) (aka 90) are four score plus one half score of the fifth one or so I have been told. But 100 is hundrede in Danish so they’re not even making consistently no sense.

and this is all without getting into how utterly ridiculous their language is. this is just basic numbers.

My eyes literally glazed over when I saw the math.

NOPE.

You use numbers for math not math for numbers.

@dorathemetamorphmagus I’m so offended by our own numbers. But even more offended by that B99 episode.

Also: 70 (halvfjerds) is actually a short version of the original name for the number which is “halvfiresnes” (half four snes (a snes is an amount of 20). So you have your amount of 4 20s and then a half = 70. Makes perfect sense guys….
