Everyone's least favourite Muggles are our tagline victims, erm targets, I mean STARS for the merry month of May!



QUOTE(Dasterdly Dursleys)
  • Things had gotten so bad at the Dursleys that now just the sight of Harry made them sick.
  • That's what I'd look like if I had better genes!
  • He probably gave me that Ton Tongue Toffy too!
  • This bucket isn't as big as the one I filled over there ...
  • He stole the cookies from the cookie jar!
  • While most children slept with stuffed animals, Dudley slept with a flowery rubbish bin
  • The Dursleys couldn't believe Harry had actually kissed a girl
  • Pull my finger!
  • He took my BLING!
  • Petunia is amazed at Harry's new haircut


Which lines best fit this rather sickening scene of familial strife? Vote for as many as you like and the top three will be made into Tagline avatars that you can save, host on an image-hosting site and use as your very own. tongue.gif

Such a scene of warm family love ... kind of like Aragog and his brood.

I voted for a few of them because I couldn't help myself but my favorite one is Pull my finger! It fits the picture so well smile.gif

Well, shoot, KD, I didn't know we could vote for more than one!
I do like the one about making the Dursleys sick, but in the picture, Petunia doesn't exactly look sick, so I voted for
"That's what I'd look like with better genes"! LOL!
