Confetti!

Yessss there's another one. The final tweet made me laugh so much. xD

I'm not sure I prefer this to the Chamber of Secrets one, but that's probably just because now I knew what to expect. These are still so funny, and I want to see more!

I didn't like the first tweet that much, because it just seems very uncharacteristic for the Dursleys to "get Harry internet". Besides, if we want to be reeaaally humourless and nitpicky, technically they most likely wouldn't even have an internet access, because the first book takes place in 1991, and yeah... but we won't go there because that's dull and would defeat the whole point of this, which we don't want because these rock. To get around it, you can just not mention the word "internet" in these tweets. I also think that the first tweet should be something more... hooking anyway.

Favourites:

"@MalfoyD Come at me, bro."

"Met @RonWeasley on the train. He’s a ginger, but he seems like an all right guy."

"Made a sick-ass talking snowman with @RonWeasley and @NevilleLB today" - especially this, because you came up with an original happening (this wasn't told about in the book, right?)

and finally:

"I guess I’m sort of a #bigdeal around here…"

xD

@RonWeasley Holy dragonballs. Me and Hermoine have something huge to tell you.


Remember it's Hermione! ;)


More please!

Hello!

First off, you need to rate this 16+ because you cuss a lot in this. ;) Second, isn't it Sorcerer's Stone? o.e

I loved it! It was hilarious! Especialy:

"@MalfoyD Come at me, bro."

and:

"Met @RonWeasley on the train. He's a ginger, but he seems like an all right guy."

and:

"I guess I'm sort of a #bigdeal around here..."

XD so funny! Write more?

See, the real issue here is that Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone is set in the early 90s. Long before Twitter came into existence.

Hahaha once again this made me laugh! These are quite fun to read! Hope you keep them up! Also you should think about if you do the next ones, making them a bit longer by adding other characters tweets into it! Other than that, great job! BRAVO

Wow...Just wow...

The only thing I personally didn't like was the language...The foul words weren't in the books, but that's just me.

But, it was very funny!!!

Amazing! Very entertaining, I loved how you cussed in it, it also helped people relate to Harry Potter more. Or at least it helped me relate to him more! Thanks so much for posting these I read your other one and it was also amazing! I think it would be really awesome if you did one for all seven of the books, also great job on the idea of twitterizing Harry Potter definetly not something you see often. :)
Thanks!

That was the best tweet out of all of them. This is really funny, and incredibly pointless, but really funny, so don't stop. I don't care if twitter wasn't invented back then. If the HP series happened now, I could totally see this happening. This is funny stuff.

Would love help on this.

OMG! Usually, I review, but there wasn't much to nit- pick and whatever there was has been taken care of, already.

That is an original and amusing idea. I love the idea in itself even though I think there could have been more humour if that was what you were aiming for. I should not be saying this because such a genius idea didn't come from my head, but I couldn't resist saying it.

Keep Writing, and hats off to your originality. :wink:

Hey there!
I thought this was great to read but I did have an issue with the dates. I mean, doesn't Harry find out he's a wizard on his birthday - which is not the 1st of July. And I think everything happens too soon: e.g. The Harry/Voldie/Quirrel situation happens in June ish.

Other than that it was great to read :D
Oh, and it is the Philosopher's Stone! J.K is english :)

Wow this is awesome. You sure know how to make someone laugh.
There isn't really much else to say, except it was hilarious and not much else. And it was interesting. And made me want to keep reading.

People are saying there are more. I shall go read them.
