‘Welcome to Hufflepuff!’

by John on September 20, 2009

Mitchell and Webb hilarity about the necessarily restrained speech in the Hufflepuff Common Room after Sorting… Hat tip to Lisa!

Micaela, a Potter-phile on her way to St. John’s College in 2010, told me over lunch today after church that I needed to look up Monty Python Football next time I needed a laugh. An excellent recommendation!

Hilarious! I always wondered how it felt to be sorted into a house with no enviable distinction, and a silly name that makes me think of marshmallows. That house seems weak (in concept) compared to the others.

I was a big fan of the Banana Splits Adventure Hour as a boy, so ‘Hufflepuff’ to me was always an echo of H R Pufnstuf.

I’m dating myself…

I love Hufflepuff! They’re just so fun and easy-going and there’s not a lot of pressure on them. They just love being at Hogwarts, playing Quidditch, and watching the Slytherins and the Gryffindors battle it out anywhere and everywhere!

Oh, but there they are just, loyal, patient, and unafraid of toil! Plus they may be simply introverts who think with the heart. >:) I know I’m sorted into there.
