Ok, this has been driving me crazy for seven movies now, and I know you’re going to roll your eyes, but hear me out: Harry Potter should have carried a 1911.

Here’s why:

Think about how quickly the entire WWWIII (Wizarding-World War III) would have ended if all of the good guys had simply armed up with good ol’ American hot lead.

Basilisk? Let’s see how tough it is when you shoot it with a .470 Nitro Express. Worried about its Medusa-gaze? Wear night vision goggles. The image is light-amplified and re-transmitted to your eyes. You aren’t looking at it–you’re looking at a picture of it.

Imagine how epic the first movie would be if Harry had put a breeching charge on the bathroom wall, flash-banged the hole, and then went in wearing NVGs and a Kevlar-weave stab-vest, carrying a SPAS-12.

And have you noticed that only Europe seems to a problem with Deatheaters? Maybe it’s because Americans have spent the last 200 years shooting deer, playing GTA: Vice City, and keeping an eye out for black helicopters over their compounds. Meanwhile, Brits have been cutting their steaks with spoons. Remember: gun-control means that Voldemort wins. God made wizards and God made muggles, but Samuel Colt made them equal.

Now I know what you’re going to say: “But a wizard could just disarm someone with a gun!” Yeah, well they can also disarm someone with a wand (as they do many times throughout the books/movies). But which is faster : saying a spell or pulling a trigger?

RECEITA DE GELO

Ingredientes:
- Água filtrada, mas se não tiver pode ser da bica mesmo (desde que ninguém saiba, claro) à gosto.
- 1 Forma para gelo (não é necessário untar).

Preparo:
- Coloque a água na forma em quantidade que julgue adequada para o tamanho do gelo desejado. Em seguida leve ao congelador e espere cerca de 1h e 30min até que a água mude para o estado sólido. Isso ocorre quando a água fica bem rígida, parecida com uma pedra.
- Desenforme dando pequenas porradas com a forma na mesa ou pia da cozinha.



Pronto, agora você pode usar o seu gelo em diversas receitas!
