I can't sleep yet, so here you go, more random thoughts:

In Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, we see that a boggart will take on all of the characteristics of what a person fears. For example, Harry's dementor-boggart made the room cold and caused Harry to pass out with his mother's scream in his head. So shouldn't Remus's moon-boggart should have triggered his transformation?

Unlike most of my random thoughts, I'm going to take the time to think of an actual answer. While the boggart may have tried to act like the moon, and have the characteristics of the moon, it is non really the moon. The boggart-dementor wasn't as powerful as the actual thing. And maybe a boggart can only replicate physical characteristics, such as the appearance, and ability to make everything cold. Not sure that the ability to turn a man into a giant wolf is a physical characteristic. So my final conclusion is that just because it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck, doesn't make it a duck. Not sure if that can hold up, but whatever.

Now, while Harry Potter may be one of the best book series ever written, it too has its flaws.

There was one little thing that I noticed as strange. If basalisk venom is able to desroy a horcrux, then why did Harry still have the horcux in him in the seventh book? When the basalisk bit him, it should have destroyed the horcrux.

How about this one: Harry couldn't cast Crucio properly after Bellatrix knocked Sirius into the veil. But he was capaple of a pretty good one after one of Voldemort's goons spit on McGonnagall (sp?). Honestly, that in itself has no good reason. It's not like he spent his summers practicing it on the Dursleys (though that's a good idea). If seeing Sirius die right in front of him wasn't enough to make him mean it, then seeing someone spitting on his head of house definately shouldn't have been.

In every book, someone saved Harry right before he was about to be killed. In book one, Dumbledore saved him when he was near death from the exertion and pain that it caused him to touch Quirrel. In book two, Fauxe came to him just as Tom Riddle was about to kill him. In book three, Harry and Hermione saved Harry and Sirius from the dementors right when past-Harry had passed out and was about to have his soul sucked out. In book four, the weird Priori Incantatem thing saved him, when Voldemort's Avada Kedavra should have split right through Harry's Expelliarmus. In book five, the Order showed up and saved Harry right when he was about to hand the prophecy to Malfoy. Then Dumbledore showed up, saving Harry and the Order, and turning the tables dramatically in their favor. In book six, Dumbledore went from being a barmy fool, babbling uncontrollably, into being strong enough to cast an extremely difficult fiery spell for an extended amount of time. Just in time to save Harry from the inferi. In book seven, there were several instances. I refuse to name them all, not only because there are many very obvious ones, but because I've got plans with a friend tomorrow morning, and I want to get to sleep early tonight. So goodnight everyone.

Have you ever noticed the little things in books that just don't add up? Just tiny little details that nag at you, and force you to point out to people? I never used to, until this past year. Let's beging with the entire series of Twilight.

Let me, however, start off by saying this: I know that Twilight is not real. I am sincerely glad. While I was almost perfectly desribed by Stephanie Myer's depiction of the wolves, I have no desire to live in a world where beautiful, pale critters run around super fast, killing people. So I don't ever want to hear someone say "Lighten up, it's only a book, written for our entertainment." I know this, but I wish she had spent a little more time making sure that her ideas actually made since. Well here we go!

 Just because direct sunlight isn't hitting the Cullens shouldn't mean that they don't sparkle. The sun is always shining a little bit on us during the day. Even during a huge storm, if you can see around you, then the sun is shining. Also, there was never a scientific reason given for why sunlight made them sparkle. Face it, Twilight was just the brainchild of a woman that obsessed way too much over one wierd dream that she had.

Also, vampires are dead, right? And they are frozen as they are. Which means that the blood in their veins isn't moving anymore. Well, aside from the fact that this would cause them to become stiff as a statue once the blood clotted, it also has other meanings. The honeymoon? Couldn't have happened. Don't believe me? For Edward to get hard, his junk would fill up with blood. That's what makes it rise, dumb-ass. And since his blood would have clotted over ninety years ago, that makes this impossible. So Renesmee: gone.

Right now, I cant' think of any more, but I'll be sure to post more later. And no, I doubt anyone is actually going to care enough to read this, but I love to rant. Night, yall!
