Waddiwasi may also be a combination of the words ''wad ''and ''kamikaze''. In this case, the spell's function is most likely to be as simple as causing a wad of something to launch itself sacrificially at someone nearby. As the perfect spitball launcher, such a charm would doubtless have been a favorite tool in the arsenal of troublemakers like Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot and Prongs. |

The Projectile Jinx[2] (Waddiwasi)[1] was a jinx[2] that could be used to propel a small wad of material at high velocity.[1]
History
During the 1980s at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, students would use this spell while duelling to shoot gum at their opponent causing some damage.[3]
On 2 September 1993, Remus Lupin, the Professor of Defence Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry during the 1993–1994 school year, used this spell to dislodge a wad of gum from a door lock directly at Peeves, the school's Poltergeist.[1]
