“[Hagrid’s] eyes fell on the empty grate with the shriveled chip bags in it and he snorted” – Harry Potter and The Sorcerers Stone page 48.
I think we had this discussion somewhere before but here it is again…
Popa is Horace Slughorn (a pleasantly plump master of potion brewing).
OneOfMany is Tonks.
purplicious is Colin Creevy’s purple-haired sister (she is a metamorphmagus too).
The Wolf is obviously Lupin.
haifagirl can be Prof. McGonagal.
Toi is Norbert.
Jothar is Mad-eye Moody (CONSTANT VIGILANCE!)
ICOT can be Dumbledore.
wow. i ding on you in so many ways, i may just start my own thread. but i appreciate the mention.
And Joseph is either Voldemort or Rita Skeeter, not really sure which… I’m leaning towards Rita 🙂

oomis = Mrs. Weasley
ZeesKite = Snape
writersoul = Hermoine
moskidoodle = George Weasley
more_2 = Mrs. Dursley
HaLeiVi = Sirius
HaKatan = Flitwick
Shticky Guy = Harry Potter
Baal Habooze = Mundungus
bar shattya = Weasley’s ghoul
Goq = chocolate frog
yitayningwut = Voldemort
Luna Lovegood = Luna Lovegood
cinderella = Harry before his 11th birthday
Syag Lchochma = Crookshanks
Here are some I would suggest:
squeak = Scabbers
superme = Dennis Creevey with superpowers
Curiosity = a centaur (since he seems to share their preoccupation with Mars)
aries = Amelia Bones
DaasYochid = Kingsley Shacklebolt
mod-42 = Xenophilius Lovegood
Also, I personally think popa is more of a Peeves…what do you think?
What about me?
And so, YWN lost its last vestiges of “Yeshivishness” with a forum thread (started by a moderator no less) about a series of goyishe books which have inappropriate content.
Who are the Rabbonim who support YWN again…?
P.S: Yes, I read the books and enjoyed them. But YWN is not the place for it…
I think Health might be Snape; you never really know who’s side he’s going to be on…
I don’t know why I opened this thread, but…
Dumbledore was a “real” magician. Yours truly is more an “Oz” type, standing behind a curtain, pushing buttons to make lights flash and smoke billow.
?
*whose side*
Joseph definitely has a large stock of Polyjuice Potion!
HaLeiVi = Sirius
Shticky Guy = Harry Potter
Goq = chocolate frog
yitayningwut = Voldemort
Syag Lchochma = Crookshanks
Why?
purplicious is Colin Creevy’s purple-haired sister (she is a metamorphmagus too).
Where in the series is this mentioned?
torah613: Couldn’t think of one for you offhand – you can pick your own, though. That’s what I did. ^_^
yekke2: Check the posts I linked in my first post.
And that’s mentioned in the series right after Dennis’ superpowers are. ^_^
OOM,
Since I am probably the only person in the entire universe who hasn’t read Harry Potter, who is Kingsley Shacklebolt?
OK, I Googled it, but it’s all Chinese to me. I must say, though, the picture is surprisingly accurate. 😉
I’ve never read HP (*gasp!*), but centaurs are cool… I take my inclusion in your list as a compliment 🙂 .
-Shraga, this website is The YeshiVA World, not The YeshiVISH World. Chill out!
Ribbit Ribbit!!
Shraga and Curiosity,
I can assure you that when I was in Yeshiva there were plenty of teef discussions about Harry Potter. Very Yeshivish.
Really?!
That’s a first…
Why doesn’t anybody want to be Moaning Myrtle? Or Umbridge? Or Dudley(I mean, he did do teshuva in the end…) ?
Can I be Crabbe, since all the other main characters seem to be taken?
At what point should I be insulted that I wasn’t mentioned?
ahem. its norberta, thank you very much.
To anybody who wants it to be yeshivish – the gantze matzav in prisoner of Azkaban is dead lomdish – it is a proper moshul to ???? ?????? ?????, the way Harry saves himself by saving himself from the dementors… Read it and you’ll see what I mean! (Punkt you can kler whether it goes into R’ Shimon’s din of a chalos which if it is chal will be mevatel itself and is memelah not chal meikoroh; the whole grandfather paradox fits right in)
And that’s mentioned in the series right after Dennis’ superpowers are. ^_^
And where is that mentioned? (Book number, please.)
torah613613torah
Satrt your own thread and a different story for all the people who were skipped 🙂
Or just make up a story with us as the characters I think that would be cool.
yekke2: Wait for it…

snort
torah613, WIY: Okay, I thought of two for you:
torah613613torah = Ginny Weasley
WIY = Oliver Wood
Hm…I could see both of those…
and lol at akuperma
Wow, it always amazes me how the intellegent 🙂 folks here can never seem to get past the mouse allegory. It just seems so simple minded…
Ordinarily, I wouldn’t debase myself, but I have to point out that popa is Quirell if anything. He has quite a gift with trolls.
Oomis – Mrs. Weasley
Ya got THAT right! I really sometimes saw myself as a combo of Hermione (know-it-all and loyal to a fault) and a bit Prof. McGonagal, but the truth is I am first and foremost MOM. Mrs. W. it is!
DY and Curiosity
We are the only 3 people who didn’t read Harry Potter. I can’t say I didn’t read part of one of the books but that’s as far as I got.
I just don’t like being left out being that I am a long time member here lol hence my comments on this thread.
I’d call you a snortface but unfortunately you seem to only be able to achieve squeak. ^_^
WIY and OOM, Thank you.
OOM, thank you. I like Ginny Weasley. 🙂
hehe good ^_^
Seeing someone mentioning my name, could anyone kindly care to explain what this whole thing is about? I’ve not imbibed into these works, I haven’t the faintest notion what these characters are (or better yet who you’re comparing me to)
I only read the first book, now I feel like I missed out on so much!
morahR
Don’t fall for the peer pressure lol.
If I were a girl, I would request Bellatrix. I was extremely impressed by “The King’s Speech”.
That being said, Ollivander is not yet taken.
Wouldn’t ZeesKite be Snape? Accused a few times of being goody/baddy name cleared then dirtied again… And in the end it is revealed that he was on the good side?
Yekke:
I have no idea what those characters mean.
But no, I’ve not been cleared as yet (1 1/2 months later). Pain still here. No apology sent (OBVIOUSLY she knows my email, she had it virtually broadcast here for all, to maximize damage), no retraction from that allegation. So while it’s only an online thing, those terrible stinging and damaging words made a big dent. As I wrote somewhere else, I used to hang out here as my second home (ok, a bit too much), I’d give & get chizuk, pieces laden with feeling, comfort. To make a difference in someone’s else’s life, as well to brighten my own. A cute quip, a smile, a hearty laugh – SUNSHINE. It’s down to a shadow now, I doubt if I’d EVER be able to resume.
I’m aware there were some who were annoyed with my appearance before, I understand why they came to join the Halbanas Panim party, what I can’t understand is the rest of the people here, how they were so easily swayed.
Sorry, ZK, I didn’t mean to open old wounds again. I thought you had been cleared, and in my eyes until a moderator comes out and officially blocks you as a member of the coffee room, you are innocent!
(For your information, Professor Severus Snape is a teacher in Hogwarts {School of the Harry Potter series}, who the main characters {Harry, Ron, Hermione} dislike and suspect him of evil doings and collaborating with the Death Eaters {The Wizard Mafia sort of thing}. He is “proven” guilty when he is seen killing one of the heroes of the series, until they find out afterwards in the last book that he was forced to kill the hero by the hero himself, who was dying anyways, and he did this for noble purposes. He is, at the end, the real hero of the series. May your name be cleared as his fictional one was!)
get a life!!!!!!!!!!!!!
