Having recently seen the latest and final Harry Potter film, it occurred to me that there’s a huge potential market for polyjuice potion. Imagine that while you’re young and in high school, you save a bagful of your hair. Then when the time rolls around for the 25th reunion, just a few hairs in some potion and you literally haven’t changed a bit since high school!
Got a bad haircut? Hickey? Poison Ivy rash? Just grab some DNA off a shirt you wore a few days ago and you won’t have to explain what happened when you get to work or school.
Movies based on real life would be revolutionized. No longer do you have to find an actor or actress that looks similar to the character being portrayed. With a bit of potion, you have Erin Brockovich starring James Earl Jones.
Celebrities will be eager to sell you potion with their hair already in it. I suspect Pamela Anderson would end up bald in short order. Relation difficulties will erupt when wives and girlfriends across the country are given Pamela Polyjuice on Valentine’s day.
And if you think it’s embarrassing to have intimate videos leaked onto the internet, just wait until the tabloids get a hold of what was found in Dumbledore’s pensieve. But I digress.
