*as you're walking down the corridor to the Hufflepuff Secret Commons, you notice a particularly fine tapestry hanging from the wall, depicting a beautiful sunrise on a lonely lcoh. as you lean in for a closer look, you notice a doorknob protruding from behind the fabulous weaving. you push the scernery aside and step through the door...
inside, you find one of the most beautiful rooms you've ever seen. a bright yellow fire crackles merrily at the hearth, and the stone floors are pleasently warm. there are over-stuffed cushions all over the place. a huge window overlooks the Hogwarts lake, similiar in fact to the tapestry concealing this room. a thick ledge borders the window, and while half of the stone seat is uncovered, the other half is full of a variety of enchanting magical plants, basking in the warm rays of the mid-morning sun. but the real marvel of the room is the walls. they are totally covered in corkboard, perfect for tacking up posters or jokes.*
Sweet Hufflepuffs, while I am sure we are all glad to have Nierme back, she decided that upon her return, Ravenclaw was for her. She took with her our beloved Badger Badger Badger thread, a Gallery of sorts. this happy room is to replace the old one. feel free to post pics, thoughts, and quotes that remind you of dear Helga Hufflepuff. Or, heck, post anything you happen to find funny or interesting.
Love, Fantasia

Ha! That's beautiful. But imagine being on it and the truck starts moving...?
Thanks. I really liked the pic, because the girl looks alot like I did before I cut my hair. I found it at a really cool site, with awesome HP sketches. Clickie.

holy cow, that's an awesome site buns! I really like a lot of the drawings in there. The one of Ron and Hermione holding hands is a cool one.
Haha, Ko, that picture reminds me of another toilet picture I've seen before. It's hilarious.

While we are on toilet pictures, here's one that is a bit rude... it has a bare bum in it! But how scary would it be if you were in the bathroom with this thing?!

Am I allowed to post here?
That has got to be a human!
I remember there was this public toilet, I can't remember where, but its outside was made entirely of glass(you know the type you can't see through but your own reflection only? Now this type of material lets you see what's going on outside.) So can you imagine going in this thing, and looking at the busy life of the city all around you?
Aha I've found some pictures of the one I described:

(Of course you can post here Hermy
Haha! That toilet is SO bizarre! I think a lot of people might get stage fright. But yeah, imagine doing your business and for all you know it looks like you're just going on a busy street corner!
I'll just cut and paste some pics from Hermy's article:
The inside of the toilet, looking out
Outside looking in!

Yeah, Koko, I think the picture you posted is of a real guy. If you look, there isn't anything connecting the toilet to the wall. There isn't even a toilet bowl, it's just a seat resting on some guy's legs. Weird. Cool idea, though.
A more affordable version of a picture posted earlier:

Yeah, it's a real guy. I got sent the picture last year because that was some guys Halloween costume or something?!
Hahahaha, that toilet fixture sign... that's typical Engrish for you. And I assure you, it says the same thing basically in Chinese, but it sort of translates as "don't stand on the seat".

okay, I would totally freak out if I went to the bathroom and got to see out at all of these people walking by! It was bad enough when I was really little and riding the train in Germany having to open the toilet seat lid and seeing the tracks running below and having wind rush up your butt while you're peeing

Haha! Actually, the wind would be quite annoying and... chilly. I heard this really horrible story about this guy who dropped his wallet in the airplane toilet, and you know how they have that suction thing on the toilets? He sustained some serious injuries to his arm (like, ripping it out of the socket and getting stuck) while trying to fish his money out.

Halloween costume? You can't say it's not original.
That is how toilets in a train are? Remind me to go to the lavatory beforehand on my first time on a time.
Ouch! That has got to hurt! I got locked in a bathroom once when I was younger. I thought I was going to stay there all night. I was really freaked out.

Ick, toilets are awful places to get locked into. They're so little and cramped and... ew. Actually, that said, one New Years Eve I was in the city and they had fireworks and there were lots of people, and they had put these porta-loo things around. And then after midnight some drunk guys pushed one of them over and all this um, gross toilet stuff came seeping out of the door. It stunk and was absolutely revolting. And then a few days later in the news we found out that someone was inside that porta-loo that whole time.

Ewww! Imagine the putrid smell that person had all over her.
Okay so this one looks so computer-edited but I just thought I'd post it anyway:
How about this one? Moose addict or what?
