Not a single thing in this world has been as divisive as the enigmatic Severus Snape. Dumbledore’s confidante and healer, yet apparently his murderer, Snape terrorized Harry Potter almost as much as He Who Must Not Be Named, gaining momentum as one of the most controversial characters ever to have existed.
But there’s a fun side to Snape not many knew existed. The Twitter account Professor Snape brings out all the dark online musings that may as well be put in The Great Hall.
Both savage and painfully hilarious, the tweets are making sure “no foolish wand-waving or silly incantations” are allowed on the thread. Because if there’s anyone who can give that much-needed grain of salt to all the turmoil we are going through right now, it must be Snape. And a whopping 1.2 million followers show it works wonders.

If people can give birth wearing a mask, we should stop complaining about how stuffy it is wearing it. #Karens
I lift my cats in the air all the time. 1 is too fat one is too old and the other hi fives me after i do it
I just imagined this scenario... someone please obliviate me.
That sounds more like something the Marauders or the Weasley twins would do. Unless Snape was drunk and under a spell cast by Sirius at an Order of the Phoenix meeting.
HaHa " Apologies Minerva " I've a mental image of Dame Maggie Smith being swung round & round in my head now 😄
Bored Panda contacted Taylor Nikolai, a social media connoisseur and self-proclaimed Snapchat guru who made a bunch of memes back in the 2010s. Taylor now runs the marketing company Viral Spark and he is also the mind behind the Professor Snape Twitter page.
In an interview, Taylor stuck to the whole Snape world concept and took the answers as his new alter ego. Thus, in a couple of deliberately short-spoken sentences, he presented himself: “My name is Severus Snape, and I am proud to say that I was a Hogwarts professor who worked his way to the top.”
Taylor then kept on explaining how Snape is such an iconic character because “I'm not only relatable on a fundamental human level, but I show people that you can redeem yourself after you have done wrong.”
9Ahh... another Weasley, I know just what to do with you... GRYFFINDOR!” Lolzers
Hermione: attacked by a troll Ginny: abducted Myrtle: died Katie: cursed
ginny went alone and got possessed, myrtle died, and katie got cursed.
Bah.. probably just an engorio spell (pardon the spelling, please)

Snape, aka Taylor, believes that the on-point and bold statements are precisely what makes his Twitter account so successful: “My tweets are so funny because they are true.”
He then added that the replies were done in Snape’s true voice and “it'd be ruining the fun to do any more.”
In this short meta-interview, we (kinda) get the point. Speaking, or rather tweeting, like Snape doesn’t do much, but the laconic voice combined with salty remarks give us a glimpse of what Snape would probably have been like if he had the internet.
Honestly, any ship is a better love story than twilight. Even Mineta x Mineta
Maybe cause it was cheaper than toilet paper?
Load More Replies...Nah, the book works better as fuel for a fire. I know from experience
When I read this, the first thought came to mind was Alan Rickman, not Severus Snape 😢
Nah, I think Alan Rickman was considered a great person even before he passed.
Load More Replies...Because Snape was a horrible person. If he truly loved Lily he would have wanted her to be happy no matter who it was with. And he treated Harry like c**p because he looked like James. Maybe being a double agent for Dumbledore was his was of trying to make up his mistakes. But he was only upset that Lily died, he didn't give a rat's a*s about James. Anyway, enough about that.
I thought Harry looked like Lily. That’s why he looked into his eyes the last time.
Load More Replies...What I never understood was: A) there are millions of letters B) Why did he not pick one up off the ground C) WHY IN PYRRHIA DID HE NOT JUST CRAM A BUNCH OF LETTERS INTO HIS POCKETS AND HIGHTAIL IT OUT OF THERE???
or just...........you know, grab one of the hundreds on the floor already
srry I broke it I was aiming to hit someone on the head with my textbook
And a Harry Potter nerd to point out electricity doesn’t work in hogwarts
As a Canadian, I'm not entirely sure how I feel about us being lumped in here with that. Our educational system definitely has some flaws and there's no point in hiding it, but... I don't think we're as bad as the US. I think the US is at a level all its own, and you might want to just strike "North" out of that sentence.
Yeah, you probably don't deserve this. There's probably enough idiots over here who'd want you out anyway for some reason but hey, it means you're not lobbed in with us.
Load More Replies...Also, the joke would be the USA healthcare system, or rather the lack of a decent one.
North America is actually composed of three countries, so a little more specificity would be good.
That was actually some advice I got from my Grandmother about 45 years ago.
Daniel deffinitelly starred in some pretty weird sh1t since "Harry Potter".
I like him for that. He is great in Miracle Workers.

I actually have a theory that those who play "bad guys" in movies age worse.
Load More Replies...tom felton, the actor for draco malfoy in the movies
Load More Replies...Miss Granger, Mr Weasley is right now waiting for you in my office... Remember to take Malfoy with you...
If you have nothing he wants and don't present a threat to his plans, Voldemort will probably leave you alone. You aren't worthy of his attention. Umbridge, on the other hand, will screw with you for no reason simply because she enjoys hurting people.
She controls the school board, Orange County, California, USA: They just announced the schools will be in session with no distance learning.
I wonder what would have happened if Umbridge had been young Tom Riddles teacher... (btw interesting grammar exercise, that doesn't sound correct..)
Snape should take her to a dog show! ... I wonder how she would look with a rubber doge mask and leash+collar on.
Thank God it's not just me. I was beginning to question my sanity
EWWW! Why?! Some of us have to go to work in the morning; I don't need nightmares!
Is that a spelling error, Vic? (read in Snape's voice lol)
Load More Replies...I WILL JUDGE BACC RAVENCLAW STYLE BY QUIZZING U ON YOUR RANDOM HARRY POTTER KNOWLADGE
Ofcourse, I always wonder why Lily Evans chose James Potter over you.
yep but trying to explain it to someone who has never read the books that's another story
Also, with all due respect to Rowling: don't be anti-trans. That is yet another type of idiocy.
the problem with democracy isn't that everyone gets a vote. the problem is the idiots outweigh the intelligent people. Not that most democrats are any smarter than trump-voters. But... details...

Excuse me, but you must have mistaken me for a mirror, Snape
Roses are red Violets aren't blue They are purple What is wrong with you
ok, this one made me laugh. the clothes are what makes it really funny.
This would have been better, just random hands reaching out of the shelves
"Well it kept me alive when I met Voldemort that one time so I am going to keep using it" Me "And if it doesn't work this time?"
In book 4, he literally used the spell against Voldemort which saved his life
Load More Replies...That wasn't really her fault, though. The film writers seriously dropped that ball.
Book Ginny for President! Apparently, Movie Ginny was a piece of wet cardboard, while Book Ginny was actually cool!
Load More Replies...I thought I was the only one who loved Book Ginny, but loathed Film Ginny!
The real Snape does't actually mention what his least favorite house.
Surprised Trump would even support social distancing when he has only been seen in a mask once.
Twice. The first time was when he was visiting a manufacturing facility. He wore it real quick, but then took it off before the press saw him. However, one person caught it on camera!

Load More Replies...When I was little, my dad used to joke, "What's yours is mine, and what's mine's, my own"!
And she has a really great singing voice. I’ve only seen her in Harry Potter and this so it was wonderful to hear her sing

Load More Replies...yas now explain to my younger bro. (It is hilarious when I quote from the book he is clueless and everyone is falling over with laughter)
Just because I remember this just now: YOU ONLY HATED NEVILLE BECUASE HE COULD'VE BEEN THE CHOSEN ONE AND LILIY COULD STILL BE ALIVE!!!
Ok but my name is actually no one cares and not just no one bc my birthday is in July
I thought his nose was flat because he ran into the wrong platform when he grew up
I've always head cannoned that he didn't have a nose because Harry destroyed the diary before he fully came back.
I can’t say how happy i am that I won’t have to entertain another of my husband’s friends or in laws😌
Yas I can't wait for next year already even though I am still in school
Anybody else really wish Alan Rickman was still around, giving people the business?
