Man: Harry Potter, what an honor to finally meet you!
Harry: Hey, you’re the guy who bowed to me in the supermarket once!
Man: He remembers me! Can you believe it?
Harry: Yes – you were also the one who was peeking in my living room and bathroom windows… and the one hiding in the bushes in the morning!

-Lauren
Man: Hello, fine sir, I am here representing the Department of Magical Creatures. The gnomes are roaming the magical lands homeless, eating trash out of other people’s homes – it’s very tragic. Would you please sign our petition to give the gnomes some nice warm socks?
Harry: Uh, sure…
-Anthony
Harry: Excuse me, sir, but I’m looking for a Christmas present for a friend of mine, Arthur Weasley – perhaps you know him? Anyway, he collects funny hats – how much do you want for yours?

Harry: Er, hi, professor Quirrell…
Quirrell: Yes – so g-g-good I saw you – Hagrid’s so hung-over he probably could’ve introduced you to Lord V-v-Voldemort h-h-himself and told you he was me!
Hagrid: *Blushes* Sorry…

This photograph and the man in the background is proof – sheer evidence pointing to the real reason for Harry Potter. It wasn’t written to entertain; it wasn’t written for eight-year-olds everywhere to have a comfortable fluffy Hagrid stuffed animal to sleep next to. This novel was made, simply in a more unusual way than other novels, to further test Albert Einstein’s theory of relativity! Mysteriously, he has returned from the dead to oversee its progress.
