An orphaned boy with a lightning-bolt shaped scar on his right temple. After surviving the Killing Curse cast by Lord Voldemort, Harry was placed in the care of the Dursleys, his aunt, uncle, and cousin, who do not tell Harry about his magical abilities. On his eleventh birthday, Harry learns he's a wizard and is sent to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, the greatest magical school in Britain. There, he meets Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger, as well as a host of other characters, and begins his life's journey.

Harry Potter, the series, was written by JK Rowling. Though many people say the plot is unoriginal, JK's story of Harry is well-written, and not as one-dimensional as many people express it to be.

Harry Potter, or abbreviated as HP, was almost ruined by the cast of directors who decided to make the highly succcessful books a movie series. Not only stripping the movies of all the good parts, messing up the dialogue, and having flat, unconvincing actors, the movie-makers seem to have made the movies only for the profit that the millions of avid HP fans would give them. Needless to say, the movies were a complete letdown.
Idiot Fangirl: OmG lYK DaN iShh sOOOOOOOO HaWWWttt!!!!!111111oneoneone... I LoVEEEE HARy Pott3R!!!!!!

Hater: like god harry potter sucks, anyone who likes it is sooo stupid.

Me: *bangs head* for God's sake, if you hate it so much, don't see or read it. If you love Daniel Radcliffe, go make a fansite or something. Leave the hardcore book fans alone. x_X;

Kids books. Phenomenally successful kids books.

That dude who get's all the attention for defeating Voldemort. Voldemort actually died from syphilis and his Horcruxes were destroyed by it as well because he wouldn't stop fucking them. Then Harry Potter jumped on the bandwagon and made up some elaborate story about prophecies and crazy homosexual professors because he was an attention-seeking and mentally unstable teenager suffering from serious angst. He then paid a homeless woman named JK Rowling to write his bullshit and help him invent more bullshit, so they both ended up extremely rich and famous. He has three illegitimate children; Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint. The fact that they all starred in the blockbusting biopic of their father's fake life is just a coincidence.
There's that Harry Potter guy!

Oh you mean the mentally unstable one from the hospital?

No the guy who defeated Voldemort!

Oh, so you do mean the mentally unstable one from the hospital... -.-

An English set of books.
It's really quite annoying when the Americans call the first book in the series The Sorcerer's Stone.
It's the Philosopher's Stone, ffs.
Christ, do you need to dumb it down that much for them?
Someone American: "Hey, have you read The Sorcerer's Stone with that Harry Potter kid in it?"
Anyone ENGLISH: "Oh, you mean The Philosopher's Stone? FU!"
