8 Things Muggles Just Don't Get

Over holiday, I was forced to stay with my mum's muggle cousins and their children where I was very confused. Muggles have such a flawed way of doing such simple tasks. They do not understand how hard they make it on themselves. I mean, how thick can you get?
1. Transportation
Muggles waste their time commuting to work or to go shopping by taking the tube, a car, a train, or a coach. What would take us five seconds ends up taking them hours. Please, learn how to apparate or something.
2. Infirmaries.
My cousin broke her arm and was in a cast for months. Months. Are you kidding me? Madam Pomfrey could have had anyone back out and ready to go by the next day at the latest. Muggles spend so much time in the infirmary when their sick or have an accident, and sometimes they can't even fully heal.
3. Everyday House Chores.
First off, they complete these tasks by themselves...this is what House Elves are for. Secondly, they use these funny little machines for their laundry that rumble and spin their clothes like a cyclone to wash and dry them and don't even get me started on cooking.
4. Sweets.
Their sweets aren't terrible, but they are a bit boring. They don't move or have any resemblence to cauldrons or frogs, but rather these caramels, chocolates, fruity, and nutty sweets are just shaped like bars or spheres. They don't even move.
5. School.
Muggles learn useless material at school such as maths, science, muggle history, and other unimportant subjects. They aren't given courses regarding functioning in the muggle world or how to protect themselves....doesn't surprise me really.
6. Entertainment.
Muggles enjoy watching sports that involve running around and kicking balls around. Their idea of fun games also involves chess (the pieces don't move), other games where only the muggles play...the game can't think for itself, and they watch films or the television.
7. Photographs.
They don't move. These muggles are trapped in this tiny piece of paper where they just stand there frozen. Why would anyone want that?
Muggles just don't get it. They will never understand exactly how ridiculous their ideals are. After an entire holiday with them, all I can say is be glad that you were born into the wizarding world.
