This isn't the funniest thing, or probably even close but this is something that stood out in stark contrast. I had to stop reading for half an hour after Fred died, i wasn't only sad, I was angry, i was just insane with grief. anyway, I wanted so badly to finish this book, even though to me it wouldn't undo the death, that I wasn't entirely over it when I continued reading, so I was reading through my sniffles and tears as Rowling described a stampede of desks coming hurtling past, with McGonagall yelling, "CHARGE!" I was so heartbroken, but it was so funny to me. I laughed outloud. It almost felt wrong. Almost, but not quite. In fact, that's probably how I got past it enough to get through the rest of the book.
