    i remember getting paid to dress up in a stupid harry potter costume and hand these out at a bookstore in the mall back when one of the harry potter movies was coming out… i’d never read the books nor watched the movies so i didn’t get why all the jelly beans tasted awful and why everyone was so goddamned eager to get them

      unironically have fond memories of going to the local small business bookstore for the late night release of Order of the Phoenix and there was a poor employee just like you who had been hired to dole out small cups of butterbeer to people and being like ‘why are these children so fucking fanatical over cream soda and butterscotch’ lmao
