This makes me rethink the term muggle

[The New Comb]

Before Harry Potter, it meant a totally different thing

You know, this puts a whole new spin on the entire story. Voldemort was probably a stoner in his youth, and he was like, "hey bro, let's go smoke some muggles," and then Dumbledore was all like, "Holyshityou'reapurebloodsupremecist" and the whole thing was a huge misunderstanding.
Poor Voldemort never did get his pot.

Funny thing words. They mean so many different things in different languages.
That article was, as far as I could see, completely from an American perspective with no mentioning of whether the term muggle was used in the same way in Britain. Because Harry Potter and it's author is, in fact, not American and thus doesn't have to consider American terminology.

So while mildly interesting in the same way SOPA means "trash" and ACTA means "beware" in Swedish, it doesn't really feel relevant to anything.

Like how they call fries chips and chips crisps.

(Having RP partners from Britain I put up with this on a daily basis XD )
