I noticed a few people have been claiming this was cute. But am I
the only one who's taking exception to an 11 year old using that kind
of language in front of a teacher? It bothers me slightly that
Steve Kloves doesn't seem to have bothered determining the acceptable
boundaries of pupil-teacher language barriers before he wrote the
script. When I was 15 I got a detention for saying bloody in class,
(even whispered below my breath to the boy I was mixing chemicals
with). I frankly think Ron is being out of order in this sequence.
I admit fully that 11 year olds know and use much worse swearwords
amongst themselves (I know I did) ... but to a teacher. I just
wouldn't have dared, even to one of my nicer teachers, and McGonagall
is hardly easy going now, is she?
