I’m sorry you’re still coughing, but that’s what happens when you bet each other you can’t “breathe and swallow” at the same time.

what exactly were they swallowing?
With their nocturnal activities, you’d think they’d be slightly more aware of the impossibility of this.
You would know, Weasley.
STUPEFY!
this made me laugh my pants off
Dobby is a happpy elf
It would be funnier if they had chosen a more…inopportune time to try to master that skill.
How many of you just tried to do it? (cough, cough)
It’s kinda like if I told you it is impossible to lick your own elbow. Somebody out there is gonna try it.
I actually can lick my elbow…
It’s not impossible. Some people can. I can…
I hate to admit it, but yeah I was tempted to try..
… I think I’ll make sure my roomate’s home to save me from choking if it doesn’t work… Update to follow.
I’m tempted… *looks at water bottle*
I know it can’t work, so I tried it to find out what happened when you do try. Not sure what they did to start coughing, but my reflexes neatly cut off my breathing while I’m swallowing…
Leave them a note saying that if they swallow a spoon full of cinnamon it will make them smell irresistible to smooth chested, rich, young guys.
Seconded. This cannot fail!
Make that third-ed-ed.
Change cinnamon to paprika and break out the video camera.
Oh. My. God. HA HA!
People like this really worry me.
Deffffinitely thought this meant something else…
What the hell? This is why people in France hate America….
Well, we hate you too.
hahah this made my birthday so much better!!
happy late birthday!
It is not a physical imposibility…the reason you cough is because you were successful. the valve that allows you to breath one way and swallow another can be half open allowing you to do both…the problem occurs when you can’t control which pipe the air and water goes down. So they go down both. You end up coughing and you should also end up burping…you swallowed air too afterall.
O! and it should be a physical imposibility to lick your elbow according to art and the standards of porportional physichal perfection, however since (Thank God) nobody is built perfectly (it’s part of our humanly perfection) it makes all things possible. O and b4 I 4get the special word for breathing and swallowing is Gulping. :) have fun!
Reminds me of a friend who used to walk around trying to stab himself in the heart with his own elbow. Not one of his finer moments. http://www.classroomconfession.blogspot.com
i can’t lie…i just attempted to touch my chest with my elbow, unfortunately it didn’t work out so well. -.-
I just tried to as well.
I’m convinced that the problem is in my boobs, not physical impossibilities ;D
Same here.
Why am I just discovering this blog now?!
Thanks Charlie for sharing your pain and allowing us to laugh ourselves senseless. I reckon going through blog archives is a far better use of my time than studying embryology.
Is it bad that I can do this?
so i just tried that. not fun, not fun at all.

Fail, honey.
Harry! Unaimed killing curses can be fatal to those nearby! Good thing you forgot that you honestly have to mean it.
Pothead couldn’t kill a flobberworm.

Damn it, Voldy, I thought we killed you. -.-

I just discovered this and you’ve officially wasted half my work day going through the archives. Thanks for the laughs.
… I think I just wasted 5 minutes of my life trying to do that.
This is probably one of the best websites I have seen in my 12 years of life!
I love the Harry Potter cast showing up on the comments!
I love that you love it. (:
