And I'll tell you why.
Gryffindors are all brawn but no brains. They shoot first and ask questions later. For them violence is the first resort. Ravenclaws are all brains but no brawn. They're weak and useless and indecisive and don't do anything practical. They prefer to just think and overcomplicate. Slytherins are ambitious but also backstabbing assholes.
Hufflepuffs are loyal, hardworking, fair, and patient. You scratch their back, they scratch yours. They do all the dirty jobs the other houses won't do. They're the cogs that make wizarding society tick tock, and if they wanted to, they could make wizarding society stop working. They will never cheat you and will always forgive you. They will never judge you, they will always accept you, you're perfect the way you are. Hufflepuff has no weaknesses. Their only weakness is being individually weak and average, but the whole point of Hufflepuff is there is no individual. There is only House Hufflepuff. When you fight a Hufflepuff, you're fighting ALL THE HUFFLEPUFFS. You kill one, a million more will take his place. They will fucking bury you in the bodies of their comrades.
Hufflepuffs are the only thing keeping England’s wizarding world from falling apart at the seams. When a Gryffindor gets drunk and picks a fight with a dragon, or a Ravenclaw goes mixing volatile potions FOR SCIENCE!, or a Slytherin decides that Mein Kampf makes a fine instruction manual, someone has to clean that shit up. And Hufflepuff will do it thanklessly. Not because they're gloryhounds like Gryffindors, or because it makes them look smart like Ravenclaw, or they have some ulterior motive like Slytherins, but because it's the right thing to do.

So the Sorting Hat wouldn't put you in Gryffindor, right?

Then why were they so bland and mediocre in the Chamber of Secrets video game?

When you decide to try to remember the names of the Hogwart's Houses .. Hufflepuff is the last one to be remembered …. why do you suppose that is ? Plus the name must be embarrassing to the students in that house.

I wrote it here, then I deleted it, now I’ll write it again… Is simplemoviecommenter the third reincarnation of our “ beloved” @themusicdewd23? If he starts ranting about how we can’t make a joke that even gently touches on religion, I’m outta here.

My very thought … further proof that the Greatest Minds DO Think Along the Same One Way Tracks ! or something like that there !

BUT on further researching … I don't think so … more logically verbal (so far) and that signature is terrific !
Watch the film once just to experience it. Watch it again to look for things in the background, scenes that you weren't paying attention to the first time around, this time with the power of hindsight to better understand why things happened. Watch it a third time to refresh your memory and purge misconceptions from your head put there by people bitching about inconsequential details of a work of fiction not meant to be taken seriously. Repeat steps for use in future debates.

Plus the name must be embarrassing to the students in that house. That's because they are unsung heroes who don't boast. They don't demand or want or need attention. They're also not remembered because they're the only ones who have never produced a Dark Wizard. Ever. That makes them clearly best house.

My very thought … further proof that the Greatest Minds DO Think Along the Same One Way Tracks ! or something like that there !I just glanced through his post history, and nothing before this thread seems to suggest any Dewd-ish tendencies; in fact, I can’t even find something similar to the posts in this thread in his whole posting history! So I guess he’s not Dewd, unless he let Dewd take over his account for this thread (which has been posted in multiple places—an extremely Dewdish thing to do…).

But what you posted, and how you posted it (the same thread here and in the Potter board), is very similar to an unforgotten and unmissed poster who alternated between religious puritanism and cursing like a hoodlum—and was also a tremendous Harry Potter fan who brought it up in pretty much every situation. So now you know who Dewd is.
