Hey come on, Usagi is perfectly nice and would never do that to someone who is honestly trying to do good.

Deliberately.

Yeah. That and a dollar will get you a cup of coffee to drink while you (re-)read this teaser.

Cool

"Y'all check this-here shit out!" is not an appropriate way to announce that you are about to perform an experimental spell.

...

Neither is "Hold my butterbeer and watch this!"

NO, but "HOLD MY BEER KID AND WATCH THIS SHIT!!!!!!!"
That is the only quote we can accept for doing something off the wall. We will not know how that first-year student got all that beer into the school and passed it out though remains a thing we do not know.

* robkelk blows dust off thread

A different kind of silliness...

We can't get Little Debbie snacks in Canada any more. So, for all I know, it might be a historical joke for the Wizarding World to have "Little Dobby" snacks.

If somebody uses the Spinning Newspapers trope with the Daily Prophet, do the people in the photos look dizzy until the paper's had a nice little lie-down for a few minutes?

Decidedly non-canon backstory silliness:

"Why is every door in the common room open?"

Fred and George Weasley looked at their Head of House. "The muggles have a saying, Professor McGonagall."

"Only a witch cat can close a door."

"The thing is, we aren't cats."

"But it's well known that you are."

"At least some of the time."

"So we left them for you."

That was when she realized that the twins were going to be trouble.
