SEVERUS SNAPE AND THE HOGSMEADE PARKING PROBLEM
"For the love of Pete," Snape hissed to himself, attempting a K-turn in a driveway at Hogsmeade. He muttered through his teeth while gripping the steering wheel far too tightly.
"There.is.NEVER.any.PARKING.in ..this.whole.FREAKING.TOWN." He pounded the wheel vicously with both fists at the first available red light. All around him, people were driving home with their Christmas presents and holiday shopping. Snape, however, had once again put off shopping until the last minute.
"I promised myself I wouldn't wait this year, and now look at.AW, WOULD YOU USE A GODDAMN TURN SIGNAL, JERK!" he screamed, trying to squeeze in the already congested mall entrance. " I swear I am not going through this again next y- GET THE HELL OUTTA THE WAY, LADY! YEAH, YOU!.YEAH- DON'T MAKE ME COME OVER THERE, BUDDY!! I'LL DO IT!"
He hunched down in the driver's seat and fumed to himself for five solid minutes, while traffic crawled along. And then suddenly, inspiration hit.
"Hey!" Snape exclaimed. "I've got a great idea! I can just shop online!"
"Hey again!" he exclaimed again. "I've got a BETTER idea! I hate everybody anyhow! I don't HAVE to buy presents! I don't even own a car!"
Snape stepped out of the maxima he'd been driving, leaving it idling in the middle of the street. He hailed a taxi and went straight home.
