the worst thing that ever happened to me was when i was explaining the plot of "the happy hypocrite" (an 1897 short story that's sort of an adaptation of the picture of dorian gray) to my sister and my father thought i was talking about "some demented potter fic" ☹️

#similar to that time my aunt confused dorian gray with christian grey when i tried to talk to her about tpodg #(btw the post is hyperbole. which i don't think needs clarified but i get so confused about everything all the time so idk)#oh and for some explanation of why he would think this: two of the main characters of the story are george & jenny‚ the latter of which i #pronounced similar to ginny. those are two characters of the harry potter series if you don't know #the happy hypocrite #tpodg
