A Typical Convo with my Co-Worker 6: Harry Potter
- Me: Hey, Tina, do you wanna hear a weird story?
- Tina: You mean something weirder than usual?
- Me: Maybe, not sure.
- Tina: Go ahead.
- Me: Well, when I was in high school, I knew this girl that wasn't allowed to go see the Harry Potter movies.
- Tina: That's not that weird. How old was she?
- Me: 15, I think.
- Tina: Slightly weirder. Why couldn't she watch them?
- Me: Her parents went and saw the movies first. They said that when they watched them, their souls were crying.
- Tina: What? What does that even mean?
- Me: I have no idea. But it sounds hilarious. All I know is that when I watch Harry Potter, my soul SOARS!
- Tina: That's probably why they didn't want her to watch those movies. They didn't want her soul to fall for Harry Potter.
- Me: They didn't want her soul corrupted. They didn't want her to dream of being Dumbledore when she grew up.
- Tina: (laughing) Is that what happened to you?
- Me: No. Personally, I've always wanted to be Neville Longbottom.
