Naughtiest quiz question ever

What is the length of Voldemort’s wand?

That’s from the Harry Potter quiz here. So now we know why young lads like the series so much.

The wand, for the record, is 13.5 inches. “She shrieked when he unveiled his wand, fearful of what it would do to her—and, yet, anxious to be impaled upon it. She felt like a tart—and it felt good!”

(Link via email from Gautam John, who, searching for more, also found this.

And for some propah quiz questions, there’s always this.)
