- einnej, on 10/11/2007, -4/+109Well... true to an extent, but I'd go for Hermione over Harry... and I'm a girl...
- IpHa, on 10/11/2007, -2/+71One reason why I am better than Harry Potter: I am real, he isn't.
- unloud, on 10/11/2007, -2/+47I sense a great disturbance in the Force. . .as if thousands of diggers cried out "giggity!!" and were suddenly silenced.
- Lokishot, on 10/11/2007, -5/+46At least my parent are still alive.
Damn orphan. - directsun, on 10/11/2007, -4/+36Harry Potter + Girl on Girl action = Digg up

When it comes to escaping danger, mystifying others with his magic, and even getting the girls, Harry Potter is the man. If you don’t believe me here’s 8 reasons why Harry Potter is better than you:
He Can Do Magic
Probably the most obvious of them all, Harry can perform magic. Can you? No.
He Has An Invisibility Cloak
No matter who you are I’m sure you’ve wished you could turn invisible at least once in your life. Well Harry can, enough said.
He is Filthy Rich
Harry has a bank vault loaded with shiny gold coins that his parents left him. Cha-Ching!
He Can Fly
Yes he uses a broom to fly, but he can still fly circles around you while you are stuck on the ground wishing that was you soaring around.
He Can See the Future
Even when Harry is sleeping he is still more amazing than you. He has dreams letting him see what is about to happen in the near future.
He Has His Own Line of Video Games
More than likely Harry has you beat on this one too! He has numerous video games based on him. The closest you’ll get to this is … well you won’t so it doesn’t matter.
He Survived Being Killed
You could possibly come close to matching Harry on this one, but he fought of being killed as a baby! The only thing you did at that age was dirty your diaper.
He Gets the Girls
Like it or not Harry Potter beats you at getting the girls too! Ginny, Cho, Hermione, the Patil twins - they all love him! Watch out or he might take your girl too! - FlindianaJones, on 10/11/2007, -1/+29Reason #9: He doesn't submit wordpress stories to Digg.
- Daveecee, on 10/11/2007, -4/+31He probably gets the girls because he can wingardium leviosa clothes right off of a body.
- cmorrell, on 10/11/2007, -4/+31Or enlargium genitalosa...
- unloud, on 10/11/2007, -2/+26Shhh. She's trying to cast a spell.
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -1/+23Ceasium Dis *****.
- Trax91, on 10/11/2007, -3/+25Oh my god! A girl! Here?! In Digg!?
- ToastPop, on 04/17/2009, -4/+24AHH DIG HER UP!!
- CerMakAlot, on 10/11/2007, -4/+24Pics or it didn't happen.
- TheProtested, on 10/11/2007, -4/+22atleast i can see without glasses!
- chibimmy, on 10/11/2007, -0/+18I can hear the Linkin Park from here. Turn it down, please.
- 7717, on 10/11/2007, -1/+18Actually, he did use a sword to defeat a giant snake. I'd say that's pretty badass.
- BLyn, on 10/11/2007, -3/+20Was that supposed to rhyme?
- lucask, on 10/11/2007, -0/+17yeah right dudley
- tinfins, on 10/11/2007, -1/+17The comments here are actually more funny than the article...which is sad for the guy that wrote it.
- kendra82, on 10/11/2007, -3/+19Pretty funny...and probably true. I would probably go for Harry over you!
- givinupthefight, on 10/11/2007, -1/+13Oh she is so totally trying to get easy diggs......and its working DIGG UP!
- Nidy1, on 10/11/2007, -2/+13This joke has gone too far...osa
- iamdeirdre, on 10/11/2007, -2/+13Are you kidding? I read Digg everyday and I'm a woman, I'm sure there are lots of women on Digg. Why is that hard to believe?
- RussellDovey, on 10/11/2007, -5/+15Teasum cliterosa?
- andre321, on 10/11/2007, -1/+10He Can Do Magic
Probably the most obvious of them all, Harry can perform magic. Can you? No.
No he can't because he doesn't exist - Wootery, on 10/11/2007, -1/+9You're not fooling anyone.
- FearlessFreep, on 10/11/2007, -1/+8Onotologically, you win
- kmpr326, on 10/11/2007, -0/+6Reason #9: Because he knows Emma Watson irl
- ubuwalker31, on 10/11/2007, -1/+7I'll give them both a double digg, if u know what i mean...
- hfactor, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5Your non-existence is digg's no. 1 stupid meme, get used to it :)
- TheUngod, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5He's just another trust fund kid. Next movie you'll see him drinking a pabst, listening to an ipod, and claiming he's poor.
- arjung, on 10/11/2007, -1/+5mirror: http://www.thegamegods.net.nyud.net:8080/2007/07/11/8-reasons-why-harry-potter-is-better-than-you/
- edemerton, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4You're not a friend of spell check, are you?
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4Finally a partner in my jail-bait hermoine obsession!
- TheUngod, on 10/11/2007, -1/+5Another reason I'm better: I don't like to play with my wand all day.
I just masterbate most of it. - ChristianMagic, on 10/11/2007, -1/+5Exactly. He'll have my respect when he kills Voldemort by stabbing him with his wand.
- Markpdotcom, on 10/11/2007, -2/+6ITS ONLY A ***** BOOK!
- M3RCINIAN, on 10/11/2007, -1/+5You mean you're a MAN! hahaha
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -1/+4I can, too. Contact lenses FTW! ;)
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -2/+5Harry Potter is ***** metal!
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -14/+179. He's a fictitious character who can do anything the author wants and I am a real person who has a life.
- i88gerbils, on 10/11/2007, -2/+5Harry Potter is a ***** role model:
1. He's dishonest. How many times has he lied throughout the course of the books? Too many to ***** count.
2. Holier-than-thou attitude. His arrogance knows no bounds. He's always thinks he's right, that things matter more to him than others, etc... Having a bit of humanity wouldn't hurt a person would it?
3. He's rude. He has little concept of mores and common decency when dealing with other people. He treats people other than his "close circle" like trash. Who ***** cares if he had to live in a hole in the wall for most of his life? Wouldn't that teach him to be a nice and decent person?
4. He's a slacker. He goofs off instead of studying, and he can get away with it somehow due to some pretty good rote memorization skills on his exams (there's an exception to this I know).
5. He breaks the rules. *****, if I break the rules I usually get punished by the cops. Harry breaks the rules and *hardly* gets punished. It's all about the "ends justifies the means". This is a pretty horrible argument when you break it down.
Basically I compare Harry Potter to Woody the Woodpecker in that both are inherently flawed individuals praised by the masses. They're characters that justify a way of life that mocks the very foundation of justice and good in societies past and present. Every time I see Harry make a mistake because of one of his flaws I laugh, and long for the day when he *really* feels the consequences for his actions. Getting his hands tattooed was one of the most enjoyable moments in the series.
*****, this will probably get buried by the masses, but I needed to get it out there at least. - unloud, on 10/11/2007, -3/+6I can't :-( You win life.
- DangerMouse9, on 10/11/2007, -1/+4Well, you're on digg so I wouldn't say that you have a life.
- DangerMouse9, on 10/11/2007, -1/+4It's Harry Potter Dr. Seuss style.
- hmunkey, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3His nose.
- danielf30, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3At least I can see with out having to wear glasses.
- ChaosIncarnate, on 10/11/2007, -3/+61. So can I. It's called misdirection by intelligent people however.
2. Can of paint and he's *****.
3. Rich kids always suffer from ***** syndrome so no big lose there.
4. And I've got a shotgun, I doubt flying around on a splinter works quite as well as flying on a broomstick.
5. Big deal anyone can claim to do that.
6. That all suck.
7. He had a ***** assassin after him.
8. By using magic and not through any real skills of his own. - 5xSTUN, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3In the end, though, I win, because Harry Potter is fictional and I am real. ... or am I?
