(acronym cqfd, but rarely used) : an offensive Quebec French phrase, which translated to English literally means an oafish, boorish, clumsy person who spectacularly fails at everything they do

diary-released Tom Riddle : Harry, let me take you back in time, and show you who really opened The Chamber of Secrets the first time around.

Harry : who was he?

Tom Riddle: i am sure you would recognize him as Hagrid.

Harry: are you serious?Hagrid? But please don't qualify him as a con qui fail d'aplomb
