Harry Potter on broomstick

It's hard to believe that the Harry Potter novels by J.K. Rowling have graced our bookshelves for nearly twenty years now, yet there's no doubt that the "boy who lived" has become part of the very fabric of modern society since they were first published in 1998. With the addition of eight extremely popular feature films based on the books, the Harry Potter franchise continues to bring joy to audiences both old and new every day. 

On the internet, Harry Potter has never been more popular. Unlike other young adult franchises (Twilight, I'm looking in your direction....), Harry Potter has remained a popular source of speculation and yes, humor. There are countless memes, videos, and tweets about HP circulating online every single day. We've put together a selection for you to enjoy.

Harry Potter, is that you?? In spite of his terrible childhood, I don't think anyone ever thought he'd grow up to become a crackhead. Next time, stick to the gillyweed, Harry!
