    Okay, here are the rules for this challenge:

    1. Defy Potter Law in every single way possible.
    Simple enough? Good. Have fun. :)

    That would be pretty hard since the Laws contradict themselves a bit

    That is entirely beside the point. >_>

    It could always be done in consecutive-oneshot form or whatever, where each chapter goes against one law.

    And why bother?

    In FF.net there are thousands of 'authors' already taking your challenge. Take a look there.

    Why bother writing at all for that matter?

    Maybe 'cause it'd be fun?

    And don't forget what would happen to your brain if you read those.

    Because those people are writing what they think is amazing shit and in a serious manner. This would, hopefully, not be written in that serious of a manner, and would preferably have excellent grammar. -_-

    For the breaking of the first law, I challenge someone to write a chapter centering completely on Dumbledore's beard. Or the grease in Snape's hair, your pick.

    You can't write a fic focusing on anyone but Harry if you plan to break rules 2-50 or however many there are. So rule one has to be left out. Anyways, that one doesn't seem like it has any potential humor in breaking it in the first place.

    I propose a more specific challenge:

    Length: Any
    Opening Words: "There he was, hanging upside-down." or "I found him hanging upside-down."
    Other Requirements: Hmm... must be Peter or Snape centric.

    Have fun. ^_^

    Must you be so harsh? I haven't posted in such a long time! Be nicer. :p

    But meh, whatever, I still think it would be lulzy if someone did this. Though yeah, forgot about the first rule lol. XD

    A Bisexual!Uberpowerful!Independent!Harriet who sings everything she says, has a super trunk, a super fashion sense, and orgies with the Weasleys, Snape, Dobby, and Griphook- all of whom are mary-sues/Garry-stues- would be awesome. (Add in all other amusing anti-potter law filler)
