Mobile Phone Being Used for Sorcery
2004-08-12
The Head of the Committee for Psychological Welfare, a branch of the charity for social services, has warned of mobile phone cameras being used for black magic and sorcery. He said that mobile cameras were powerful devices which could be used by sorcerers and magicians. He stated that on the Internet and on satellite TV channels, he had seen that wrongdoers are using modern technology for sorcery.
It was on the internet, so it must be true.
Actually, that's not true. I just put a spell on him so he thinks it's true...
He said that sorcerers take pictures of people and then send them to a victim along, with private information which convinces others that the information is true.
"They're stealing your soul!"
I have eleven of them in little boxes in my underwear drawer...

#7  if you capture a soul with your cellphone, then lose signal, does the soul stay in the "frequently dialled" memory? Or lost in the ether? Is soul-sending part of the text-messaging minutes allowance... so many inane questions..

#6  biged - apparently the muggles have a very large organization of some kind (bigger than Gringotts, Im told) called Warmer Brothers (they must like heat) that sells both muggle objects, and purportedly magical objects. Be warned that none of these objects are in fact magical. Attempting to charm these false magical objects could be create tremendous confusion and will be treated VERY seriously by the Ministry.

#2  So if you get too many evil souls stored in your mobile phone camera, does it become a toxic waste site, like in Ghostbusters, and become subject to EPA regs?

#1  Obligatory: Sorcerers--why do they hate us?

It's good to see sorcerers and magicians keeping up with technology. The rabbit-out-of-the-hat trick was really getting old!
