are you ever scrolling through tumblr and you have a thought and immediately lose it so you have to scroll back up to give your brain the conditions under which it originally created the thought so you can bring it back

I have no unique experiences apparently

So is it just me, or does every new owner of Tumblr getting announced feel like we’re getting a new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher?

When I was younger and reading Order of the Phoenix, I didn’t know that punting meant like boating so when Fred and George make the swamp and Filch has to punt the students across I literally imagined him drop kicking them across

the fact that so many people in the notes thought the same and never questioned an adult straight up drop kicking students across a swamp just said what a train wreck this school is

What perhaps the Capitals didn’t even realize at the time was that for all the Stanley Cup’s wild encounters in its storied history — it’s been used for a baptism, deposited at the bottom of Mario Lemieux’s pool and accidentally used as a receptacle when nature called for newborn child — no player had ever attempted a keg stand over it before that summer afternoon in Georgetown, according to the trophy’s Hockey Hall of Fame minders who constantly guard it.
“They [keg stands] haven’t really been that popular in the hockey world, I guess,” said Philip Pritchard, who’s been taking care of the Stanley Cup for the past 30 years.
Ovechkin and goaltender Braden Holtby even helped host Jimmy Fallon do a Cup stand during an appearance on “The Tonight Show.” But as Pritchard and the two other keepers of the Cup traveled over the past two months from Siberia to Saskatchewan as part of each Washington player’s day with the trophy, Cup stands at each stop became cause for concern. Parents, friends and even a 7-foot referee all took their turns, some holding onto the base of the trophy or even the more delicate bowl as they lowered their head into it.
Pritchard repeatedly praised how the Capitals have reverently handled the Cup, but he said he’s been “advising” them to quit the Cup stands for fear of damage. Still, there were at least two instances as recently as forward Chandler Stephenson’s day with it on Aug. 24 and former assistant coach Lane Lambert’s on Aug. 26.

Pour one out for the Caps both starting and finishing the most glorious of traditions.
