This comment has inspired me to consider a new Harry Potter reading game (it also works for New!Who, or more or less any series with significant amounts of size!fail), in which you take an episode / chapter / paragraph, replace all the body-size sterotypes/slurs with equivalent racial ones, and then gawp in shock because you're suddenly reading white supremacist propaganda from the 1950s.
