Tonight I went over to my grandma's house for dinner with my sister. Towards the end of a conversation, we got to talking about the Harry Potter movies. My grandma said, "I know who Daniel Radcliffe is. He's Harry Potter. But I don't know who those other two are. Himmie and Roland?" Me and my sister could not stop laughing. "No Grandma. Ron and Hermione."

What non-HP screw ups have you had to endure? They can be character mix-ups, wrong names, simple confusion about plot points, or just plain ignorant remarks.


--------------------
"I know who Harry Potter is. I just don't know who the other two are. Himmie and Roland?"
"No, Grandma, Ron and Hermione."
