• AVADA KEDAVRA! ^Explanation The Killing Curse.

• HARRY! DIDJA PUTCHA NAME INDA GOBLET OF FIYAH?!?! ^Explanation In the Goblet of Fire book, Dumbledore calmly asks Harry if he put his name in the Goblet of Fire. In the movie, Michael Gambon is slightly more... dramatic about it.

• Snape: King of the Friend Zone. ^Explanation Some fans still found it hard to feel sympathy for Snape after the big reveal about his past relationship with Lily Potter, arguing that he was ultimately just an ill-tempered jerk who turned to the dark side because he couldn't accept a platonic friendship with the girl he loved.
• Harry was screamed at by literal Facebook. ^Explanation In the first film, the 'screaming book' has a disembodied face that screamed at Harry. After Facebook was founded in 2004, this became a joke. Also note that the disembodied face only appears in the movie. The novel doesn't specifically describe the 'screaming book' had a face.
• The Cursed Child is My Immortal 2.0 ^Explanation The leaked synopsis for The Cursed Child has fans claiming it to be fanfiction made canon. My Immortal jokes were soon to follow.

• "I shouldn't have said that. I should not have said that."
• When a Dementor attempted to Kiss Dolores Umbridge, the Dementor lost its soul and ceased to exist. ^note A reference about how Umbridge is the most hated character in the franchise so some fans jokingly said even Dementors wouldn't be able to suck her soul even if Dementors are known to be indiscriminate when they attack human victims.
• Elphias Doge ^Explanation Blame the 2013 Doge meme, which made his last name funnier than ever.
• Read a different book! ^Explanation Due to overuse by Totally Radical types, using the series as a metaphor for real-world politics has slowly drifted into Discredited Meme territory — while Fan Haters will call you out for making any comparison at all, truly absurd analogies will draw just as much ire from dedicated fans. The phrase is still frequently repeated due to just how insane some of the fanbase is, with their actions including vandalizing an ancient tomb in Spain with the Deathly Hallows symbol.
• Haggord/You dun it nao Arry Porrer ^Explanation "Haggord" is a bastardized nickname for Hagrid's poorly-rendered character model in the PS1 Video Game Adaptation of The Philosopher's Stone; the phrase is a reference to Hagrid being a quest-giving NPC in the game.
• Flipendo! ^Explanation The Knockback Jinx featured in the Video Game Adaptation of The Philosopher's Stone is often envisioned as one of the most powerful spells in the Harry Potter universe.
• nobody:
  JK Rowling: [Too Much Information about a random side character] ^Explanation With the rise of Twitter, Rowling's account has been noted for two things, one of which is her tendency to give out Word of God (memetically, at complete random; in reality, usually part of conversations with fans) with a tendency to veer into Too Much Information. The "Hufflepuff circlejerk" is a hoax, but the "pants-shitting wizards" are real. Parodies of Rowling's tweets gradually escalated, Flanderizing her as a serial retconner who goes about rewriting her characters' race, sexual orientation, and gender identity, with some even joking about Rowling being an outright Reality Warper who can turn anyone gay, black, or into the opposite sex at any moment whenever she sees fit.
• On tumblr, people have begun making jokes about Harry buying all the candy from the trolley in The Philosopher's Stone, either calling him greedy or saying that's why Malfoy wanted to be his friend.
• Caps!Lock Harry ^Explanation Harry in the Order of the Phoenix book can come off really wangsty at times. This is usually displayed by having his lines written in ALL CAPS TO SHOW WHEN HE'S ANGRY AND YELLING!
• "You dare use my own spells against me, Potter?" ^Explanation In Half-Blood Prince, Harry attempts to use the Half-Blood Prince's spells on Snape, only for Snape to quickly counter with a spell that knocks Harry to the ground, before revealing that he none other than the Half-Blood Prince himself. The line in question is quoted in response to someone being given a taste of their medicine and reacting with utter disbelief, such as a dad falling victim to his own irritating "dad jokes."
• Hatsune Miku wrote Harry Potter. ^Explanation A derivative of the "Hatsune Miku Created Minecraft" meme, which became popular after many fans disowned J.K. Rowling following a series of tweets from her that many fans considered to be transphobic.
• "Urgh, another Weasley!" ^Explanation The Sorting Hat's reaction to Ron in the first movie. Is not hard to picture him having this reaction when the next Weasley generation (which barring Ginny's kids, they're all Weasley) begun to going to Hogwarts after the series.
• "I had you looking in the wrong section. How could I be so stupid?"
