Page 2 of Goblet of Fire Musings
Right, have you ever wondered about the sewage system in the wizarding world? Like if they had a quick and nice way of disposing of the stuff? Well the answer to that is in the Goblet of Fire, and I'm telling you, it ain't pretty! When Moaning Myrtle is talking about how one time, she was sitting in her U-bend and someone flushed a book down the toilet and caught her by surprise, she happens to mention where the book, her, and presumably all of Hogwart's sewage goes to: the Great Lake!! OMG I can't go into how unhygienic this is: everyone's..stuff..lying in a lake on the school grounds?! I don't even want to imagine how bad that smells!! And then Krum goes swimming in it..with just his trunks on!! IRGH!!! He must have got some kind of skin disease from all that sewage I'm sure! Never mind the Squid, the sewage is the big danger!! And then they decide to make 4 innocent champions dive into it in the 3rd task!!! OK, so the tournament is meant to be tough, but you don't wish THAT on your worst enemy!! YUCKKK!
Right, moving on!! I'm sorry but I'm going to have to criticise the hero now...coz he was just plain stupid!!! You know when they have the 3rd task and Harry waits around for the other Champions coz he thinks the hostages will be in danger? Well DUH!!!! Did he really think that Dumbledore and the entire Ministry and God knows how many other people who organised the tournament would leave the students down in the Lake to die just because the champion hadn't got there in time?!? This is the 21st century, Harry, get with it!! No-one would even think about putting a student's life at risk: it's only a game!! Someone I think our little Harry is taking it a bit too seriously. He deserved to get 0 points for that stupid thinking! I'm sorry!
You know in the chapter when Harry meets Voldemort and helps bring him back to life, well Voldemort's voice is described as 'high and cold'. Now, can you imagine someone saying something really scary in a high voice? It just doesn't work! You'd imagine his voice to be really low and scary, not all camp!! Oh well, maybe Voldemort has secret desires....
Now we come to the most contraversial of bits in the book: Dumbledore's secret triumph. Was he showing admiration for Voldermort, was he perhaps a death eater who came back to the good side years ago, or was he just remembering that he had eaten a record number of sherbert lemons that day? I guess we'll never know...that is until the next book comes out of course!
