Though I like the idea of an ARGH list, and I'll be adding some later, I wonder
if the Chamber of Secrets idea is actually good.
> When Harry is looking for a place for his little group. I was screaming "THE
> CHAMBER OF SECRETS YOU BLOODY IDIOT!" At my book and jumping
up and down.
OK, assuming the thing hasn't been sealed off with about 40 different kinds of
magical enhancements now (after magical exterminators went through,
looking for any other goodies old Sal left behind) I wonder about a place that
only Harry can open?
It would look suspicious for him to hang around outside the sink, waiting for
everyone to show up, not to mention just freak them out every time he used
Parseltongue. And as we saw, Marietta and that Hufflepuff kid (blanking right
now) are already skeptical.
The beauty of the Room of Requirement is that the door appeared when
needed. Having all the kids pile into the bathroom would have drawn
attention.
But, on to these ARRRGH! Moments:
SS/PS: WHY IN GOD'S NAME DID YOU LEAVE THE CLOAK ON THE
TOWER?????
PoA: SAME THING!!!! WHY LEAVE THE CLOAK???
CoS: First, follow a Slyth to his or her common room under the cloak,
remember the way, THEN drink the potion and head straight there.
GoF: RON! JUST ASK HER TO THE BALL! Silly git!
OoP: I got all along that Sirius wasn't really being tortured and that it was a
trap. I was screaming at Harry.
