Usually if someone says something I don’t like, I have witty comebacks. I bet you didn’t know that.
Here is a few examples:
Person: Hey Jamie, you look tired today.
Me: Your face looks tired today.
or
Person: Be careful driving home.
Me: YOU be careful.
Person: But I’m not going anywhere ….
See what I did there? Obviously, I have the humor of a 12 year old. I’m easily amused and think I’m fucking hilarious. Whatever.
ANYWAY!
While browsing my favorite celeb gossip site reading a post about Britney, I came across someone who decided to talk shit. We all know this is just wrong because hi, Britney is amazing.
Anyway, someone commented back to them with:
“I’m going to crucio your fucking ugly ass.”
If you aren’t familiar with Harry Potter, this probably means nothing to you. But if you are, you know how amazing this is.
Next time someone decides to act up -
CRUCIO.
I love it.
P.S. I’m so excited for Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince. I’m hopefully going to see it tomorrow!
P.P.S. You now know exactly how big of a geek I am by this post. Throwing out fictional curses as witty retorts.
P.P.P.S. Shut your laughing face.
P.P.P.P.S. CRUCIO.

True story: you and I are the same person. @angilio can vouch for me that all I ever say is “No you are ____”. I’ve also said way to many Harry Potter that go over her head (she’s a muggle at heart).
I have a very corny sense of humor. I once told a guy at a tweetup that was talking about a 401K that my 802K is pretty awesome.
Slap an L on my forehead and call me a loser but I think our humor is amazing.

Achoo is taking me tonight! 8pm! I’m very excited.
And don’t worry, my comebacks usually go like this:
Someone: Jersey, you suck.
Me: Oh yeah… well…. yeah… no!

You are adorable. I went last night but I’m not a huge HP fan so it didn’t make me nerdgasm. Which is probably a good thing.

I am excited about HP too! But not enough to brave the crowds. I think I’ll hold off for a couple weeks.

I’m am forever thinking Harry Potter things in my head to use in everyday conversation, but I am too scared to actually use them.

I think the point of this post is to let us all know that it’s ok to be geeky because Jamie is cooler than we are, and she is geeky.

Haha that’s brilliant.

I am convinced by this post that we are very much alike. I use the word face as part of my comebacks on a daily basis, and lately I’ve taken to saying “Accio M&M’s” when I want something. (I just used M&M’s as an example because really, who doesn’t want M&M’s?) I love HP! Geeks forev.

In high school, my friend and I came up with the best comeback ever.
Them: You suck.
Us: Well, at least we don’t suck.
It stumps people every time.

Haha, my friends and I have pathetic funny comebacks too and it’s no fun when people don’t get it or play along.
Have fun seeing the movie! I can’t wait until it comes out…I wish I could see it now in the theatres but there’s only a few theatres that have scheduled open-captioned movies and HP’s not open-captioned this week or anytime soon.

Oh Jamie, this is why I like you so much. Except, I say “Avada Kedavra”.
Also, we will need to discuss HP after you watch it. I’m curious what you will think of it.

Ahhhhh…I still haven’t seen it. I lurve me some HP, and I totally use the “your face (insert whatever they said)”. I’m also prone to use the “your mom” comment as well. Yeah, I’m classy
