While I was perusing Facebook, I found a link to a video which I thought was really cute and totally appropriate to this comm.

It's right here, if you want to watch:



I would say it's fairly on-target. The scene of the little kid with the fire extinguisher in particular.

Something I've always wanted to ask native speakers:

“You are on probation!” shrieked Professor Umbridge, and Snape
looked back at her, his eyebrows slightly raised. “You are being deliberately unhelpful! I expected better, Lucius Malfoy always speaks most
highly of you! Now get out of my office!”

Does this mean that Snape had just been put on probation by Umbridge after everything he did regarding not giving Veritaserum to use on Harry, or was it "You're already on orobation, Snape, how dare you continue to passive-aggressively defy me?"

It's ambiguous. It could mean either one. Since I don't recall anything being said earlier in the book about Snape being on probation, I have always taken it to mean, "I am placing you on probation this very moment."

If Severus had been on probation previously Harry would have mentioned Dolores supervising his classes.
