A millennial adult, with or without kids, that can't stop talking about Harry Potter, including the books, the movies, and the theme park lands - particularly Diagon Alley - at Universal Studios/Islands of Adventure in Orlando, Florida. Even if they do have kids, they're still way more obsessed with Harry Potter than their kids ever would be. They probably engage in casual Harry Potter cosplay and visit the theme park lands at least once a year, and/or at your local town or city's weekly or monthly Harry Potter trivia night. They are obsessed with everything Harry Potter, including, but not limited to, basing their entire personality and/or identity revolving around their "official Hogwarts House"; oversharing way too many photos of them in Harry Potter cosplay; being obsessed with Harry Potter trivia; building a massive Harry Potter collection to rival that of comic book, toy/action figure, and anime/manga nerds; having Harry Potter-themed rooms in their house; and/or probably having at least one Harry Potter-themed tattoo. One of the most bizarre and weird people you'll ever encounter, and also probably somewhere on the autism spectrum.
"That Harry Potter Adult over there won't stop talking about how much of the Hufflepuff they are, and showing off their tattoo of Cedric Diggory."
A Harry Potter Teacher is a teacher who is seriously addicted to Harry Potter and is probably a millennial. Usually, this follows along with them also liking "The Hunger Games," too. Most of these creatures usually have a bio in which it states they at least like Harry Potter or they're a huge fan. You can also call a singular version of this person a Harry Potter Teacher.
Me: "My teachers are Harry Potter Teachers."
Person: "What're you even talking about man."
Me: "My teachers are big fans of Harry Potter."
Person: "Mine are too."

Someone who is litterally obsessed with all concepts of Harry Potter. Usually, they have read all of the books at LEAST three times, they read/write fanfictions to it, and all thoughts are centered around it. Some even masturbate to Harry Potter and it's characters...
"Dude, what the hell are you doing?"
"Reading the fifth Harry Potter book."
"You are such a Harry Potter Fag!"
"So? hey, do you know where the lotion is...?"

People who don't know anything about the process of a book to film adaptation. Clueless and idiotic "fans" who slate the Harry Potter films because they are "not like the books." These people fail to recognise that books and films are entirely separate mediums and entities.
They often resort to hating the director, not taking into account that there are other people involved in the filmmaking process, including the writers and WB Studios who place pressure on the team to adapt source material from a 700 page novel into a 2.5 hour film with budget constraints.
Potter purists lack any knowledge and common sense; they moan and whine about the slightest change, cut and/or addition in the films and are ignorant to the fact that such changes are necessary for the benefit of cinematic style and substance.
They also do not rate a film on its cinematic structure (EG editing, cinematography, pacing, score etc...) but on how much it was like the book.
Basically, they are generally a group of ungrateful haters, which Jo Rowling would be extremely ashamed to call "fans".
Such acts of purism from the Harry Potter Purists include:
"THE DIRECTOR IS STUPID! I COULD DO BETTA!!!!"
"THAT NEVA HAPPENED IN THA BOOKS??????!!!"
"THE BOOKS ARE SOOOO GR8, WHY CHANGE STUFF FOR THE FILMS!!?!?!?!?!??!"

A dimwitted perpetrator of domestic violence who beats his partner infrequently and secretly, so as her injuries seem to appear "like magic".
My mom's drinking buddy came over last night with bruises all over her face. Her husband must be a real Dirty Harry Potter.
