Do you or anyone else resemble an HP character (and not just the trio)?, Which HP scenes do you relate the most to? |

Are there any people you know, that really resemble HP characters? Could be appearance, character, way of thinking, etc. Did that change your views on certain characters in the books, or on the people you know?
The idea for this thread came to me because I know a woman that could REALLY be the Prototype of Umbridge- Girlie, fluffy, with a soft swweet voice, and bigot,racist , bully,incompetent, abusing her power, enjoying the discomfort and humiliation of those she considers inferior to her - I was unfortunate to be one of them... Well, when I read Ootp, i was like WTF? How does JO know her???  I also know (and used to be a god friend of) a boy who was so much like Draco Malfoy it's unbelievable. He was arrogant,over his head, and a bully(well, not to his friends, though, and we didn't approve of that behaviour), oh yes, and a rich kid as well. He was also a verbal bully, not a physical person, and a coward in many situations. Anyway, I was a friend of that guy (well, he had lots of positive traits as well, although if you ask people he didn't like, they will tell you something different), for quite a long time. Then he got in a very bad situation, due to his arrogance, bad decisions and unwary actions, and he was absolutely terrified when he realised what he got himself into. He ended up in prison when he was only 18, and spent two or three years there (not quite sure), and was quite a different person when he came out.Well, this person and the fact that I liked him very much, made me like Draco as well. Because my friend's family was quite disfunctional, I thought there's something wrong with tha Malfoys as well (which was proved wrong in DH),etc. So, do you know any people just like HP characters, and has this affected the way you see these characters in the books?

And then Harry was all “I am SO living!” and I was all “Oh, you are SO NOT, baby!” and he was all “Oh yeah? Try it!” and I was all “Ok, fine!” and so I did. And then he was all “Yeah, whos what now, bizatch?” and I was all “*deadness*”.
