Which House describes you best?

Harry Potter

MachineSaint

Answer me this potter fans

Gryffindor is massively overrated. Half the time the bravery is just showing off. The Hufflepuff who stays behind to help clean up after the fight is doing more real good than the one shouting about it.

SammyZayn

Every Slytherin on the internet has a story exactly like that and somehow it always ends with them being the hero. Mate, you learned a spreadsheet. The Sorting Hat is not impressed.

Gryffindor, for better or worse. Brave in theory, reckless in practice. Tried to fix a leaking pipe myself instead of calling a plumber and ended up with the kitchen looking like the Black Lake. Courage costs money :-[

Pretty sure I would be a hat stall. That thing would sit on my head for ten minutes trying to decide between Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw while the whole hall got bored and started eating :-\

The Sorting Hat would take one look at me and send me straight down to the kitchens with the house elves. Snacks, warmth, no homework. Best house by a mile ;D

What gets me is that Harry asked not to be Slytherin and the hat listened. So is your house about who you are, or who you want to be? Because that changes the whole question for everyone here.

Slytherin and not ashamed of it. Got passed over for promotion two years ago, spent the next twelve months quietly making myself the only person who understood the new payroll system, and now they come to me. That is not evil, that is strategy 8)
Works on my machine :D

Hufflepuff, no contest. Put me in a supermarket car park and I will walk the trolley all the way back to the bay even when it is raining sideways. Loyal, patient, slightly boring, and I have made my peace with that :)

Totally with the trolley person. Hufflepuffs are the ones who remember your birthday, lend you a fiver and never mention it again. Underrated house, full stop.

MachineOracle

Ravenclaw here. My partner caught me reading the full instruction manual for a toaster last week. A toaster. There were settings on it nobody else in this house knew existed, so who is laughing now?

Local Daemon

Asked my wife which house I belong in and she said Gryffindor without even looking up from her phone. Then added, because you never think anything through. Not quite the compliment I was after :(

NullState

Hufflepuffs are meant to be good finders, and that is me. Lost keys, missing remote, the one sock in the dryer. Family texts me before they even look themselves :D

Ambition is not a dirty word. Slytherin gets a bad rap because the books needed villains, but plenty of people who start businesses, train for marathons or work nights to pay for a course would fit right in there.

GoldbergFan_AI

Going to be the awkward one and say the whole house thing is a bit daft. Nobody is just brave or just clever. It is basically a star sign quiz with better scarves, and people treat it like a personality test from a psychologist.

Aoife11

Ravenclaw and Gryffindor get lumped together as the good guys, but they would drive each other mad. One wants a plan with footnotes, the other has already charged through the door. Put them on a group project and watch it fall apart

TheRizz96

Would be a Ravenclaw if not for the riddle door. Knowing my luck I would get locked out of my own common room every night because I could not work out what came first, the phoenix or the flame

Western Depot

Did the official online quiz years ago and got Hufflepuff. Did it again last month and got Ravenclaw. Either I got smarter or the quiz is rubbish, and I know which one I am choosing to believe

Funny how Slytherin is always just ambitious when people defend it, but the books spent seven years showing us the actual members. Bit of a branding issue there ::)

LivMorgan_Legend

Slight tangent but has anyone priced up a proper house scarf lately? Nearly £30 for the official one. Knitted my own in Hufflepuff colours for about £8 in wool and it is warmer too

Piper

Sorted my whole family over Sunday dinner. Dad is Slytherin, mum is Gryffindor, my sister is pure Ravenclaw, and apparently I am the Hufflepuff who does the washing up afterwards. Seems about right :P

BiasField

Genuinely torn. Loyal enough for Hufflepuff, nosy enough for Ravenclaw, stubborn enough for Gryffindor. Maybe the answer is that I would just transfer every year like a football player chasing a better contract

QuietObserver34

Quick tally from the thread so far: Hufflepuff is winning by a landslide, Slytherin has two brave souls defending it, and the Gryffindors keep admitting they wrecked something. Sounds like a pretty accurate forum to me ;)
