I once rejected a new hire at work because she unapologetically and proudly told me she was a Hufflepuff.
@fesshole sensible, unless you were a manager at Warner Brothers Studios, I guess....
@fesshole Both that you believe in this shit and that you reject the nicest house are red flags
@fesshole careful, they'll try and make "harry potter adult" a protected class

@fesshole I hope fesser knows it was a Hufflepuff that killed Voldemort

Edit: I misremembered. This is not true.

@cafeinux Neville Longbottom kills Nagini (Voldemorts snake and last remaining Horkrux) in their final battle and such allows Voldemort to die.
@Pixdigit
"Allowing to die" ≠ "killing", but even then, Neville Longbottom is a Gryffindor.
@cafeinux huh, you're right. It's been a while since I last interacted with Harry Potter (for... reasons)
@Pixdigit
I'm sure we have the same reasons. I'm looking to re-buy the books secondhand, to read them again, but I already know it'd be bitter.
@fesshole Imagining fesser waterboarding the candidate, screaming "TAKE THAT BACK!", but she, unapologetically, refuses.
@fesshole You made the right call. Adults need to stop making this shit their whole fucking identities.
@fesshole yeah fuck jk rowling stans

@fesshole

Quite right. We have laws against child labour.

@fesshole did she volunteered the information out of the blue or is the question part of your application process?

@fesshole one does slightly wonder how this “information” came up in conversation, and what the context was.

But that aside, any adult who claims to be a member of a particular house in a fictional wizard school is clearly going to be an insufferable twat.

(Doubly so since its creator decided to become the queen of being beastly to trans people, for some reason.)

@fesshole I thought they were the nice ones? Miriam Margoyles for example.
