Has anyone else noticed?

Such a weird thing is, they seem to have had DADA teachers only since Harry came to the school. Dumbledore said that no-one has stayed more than 1 year as the teacher since Voldy was denied the job. but surely he would have applied (ha, that sounds so weird. you can just imagine him filling out loads of forms - have you had a full education?
yeah...but after I framed someone for a murder I comitted, things all kind of went downhill...)
anyway, he would have applied way way before Harry was born, however in OotP they only list the ones that they had, and even the Weasley twins who have been at school longer than Harry and Ron have apparently only had those previous four. Having one new teacher every year for twenty years or possibly more you'd think that they would have had difficulty before then.

please give your views on this. its a bit long but it's the first thread I ever posted.
😘 woah... I talk too much...

Amazingly, I understood what you just said, and it's a very valid point.

I'd just chalk it up to a mistake/not-thinking-it-through-enough on Jo's part. 😬

i understood tat but it was a bit confusin at forst (had to read it like 5 times) but i agree wit H S 6 it was jus jkr screwin it up.

quirell had been there longer , he only became two-faced when Harry came 😛

No... they were listing the ones since Harry had arrived. I think...

yeah, they might have been, but Gred and Forge had been there longer than Harry and Ron so they would have known some other teachers, wouldn't they? 🤓

also, by the sixth book... VOLDEMORT IS LIKE, 70 YEARS OLD!!! he came to school 50 years before Harry, and he found the chamber when he was 16! that is pretty creepy!crazydisgustermm

But that had nothing to do with the thread topic.

Since when did it have to be a malicious murder? Dumby vanquished that dark wizard... Grindlewald or somehing, and that may have meant killing him. But not MALICIOUSLY!

But we shall just have to wait. Unfortunately.

I know... THE AGONY OF WAITING! THE HORROR! THEN HORROR! Make it stop! Make it stop!

I can't believe it isn't coming out till 2007 or maybe even further! AAAARRRRGGGGHHHH!!!!!!! i'd be like, 16 years old and I'd have left school.

Oh, good. now I think about it, that means I can stay uptill midnight and get it from a bookshop instead of waiting till morning.
HA HA!chinese

wizards have a much greater life span than normal muggles i suppose

where does it say that in Harry Potter?😕

wizards have the same life span as muggles - unless they're like voldy in which case you'll have to kill some other things before they die.
It absolutely never says that they have an extended life span unless they have a horcrux or an elixir of life from a philosophers stone. shaun

OMG! I have just found out, like, five minutes go, that in Norse mythology, Fenrir was a wolf who would bring about the 'end of all things'!

c'mon, make the connection...
what d'you reckon, huh?lightbulb
