Today, I was called into my son's school because he had got into a fist-fight with another pupil and I had to take him home. He clammed up about the reason behind the fight, until I finally managed to coax it out of him: the other kid is in "Hufflepuff" and he's in "Ravenclaw." FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I had to pick my son up from school after he beat the crap out of another student. The words that made him go nuts were apparently, "You mad, bro?" FML
Today, my 50-year-old dad was in a foul mood after taking an online test that put him in Slytherin house instead of Ravenclaw where he "belongs" because he's "so smart". FML
Today, I got called into the principal's office of my son's school. Why? He'd called his teacher a "fudge packer". No more weekends with his uncle. FML
Today, I finally stood up for myself and beat the crap out of a bully at school, as my father told me to do. The kid and I were called to the principal's office, along with our parents. Inside my father's smirk faded when he saw that the kid's mom was his boss. FML
Today, my 14 year-old got a 5-day suspension for fighting. He stood up for an 7th grader who was getting picked on. While the poor kid was eating lunch, they were messing with him when my son stepped in. There were some words said, then a fight. He feels terrible for fighting but I think he was in the right. FML
Today, I got my ass beat by some kid in my grade. The reason I was targeted? The superintendent, aka my idiot father, suspended him for defending himself in another fight. The kid told me it's not personal, he needed to prove a point that our school doesn't do shit about bullying, As much as I agree with him… FML
Today, after picking up my 6 year-old from school, he said, "Drew said his dad could beat you up." I told him that he needs to respect his own father more and stand up for me. We got home, I looked up his class roster and low and behold, Drew's dad beat me up in junior high. FML
Today, I found out there's a Harry Potter club at my school. My boyfriend is in it. FML
Today, someone called the police on me because one of my students was going home with me every day. The student is my son. FML
Today, my 9-year-old daughter was acting out and wouldn't do her homework. I told her that if she didn't study, she wouldn't get her acceptance letter from Hogwarts. She looked into my eyes, straight through to my soul and said, "Hogwarts isn't real, retard." FML

I don't think the kid is really in Hufflepuff, that house doesn't seem like the type to fight. I think he's hiding his Slytherin ways.

The kids don't pick what house they're in, that's the Sorting Hats job.

As a Slytherin I am appalled.The Ravenclaw should have been able to use their wits, not their fists. And OP, I don't appreciate your username.

42 - yes. I'm afraid your taste in fiction is malfunctioning, this is very serious, perhaps one of the worst cases in existence. Please see a doctor quite quickly to see about treatments, if there are none I'm afraid we'll have to give you a lobotomy for the sake of all humanity

Hufflepuffs are particularly good finders.

Yeah, I think JK ****** up by not focusing more on the rivalry between Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw. There's only so much of the Gryffindor/Slytherin, Potter/Malfoy crap you can take before it gets stale. She coulda spiced things up with some hot 'puff/'claw action, as we HP critics call it.

Not very clever for a Ravenclaw to get caught...come on, show our house your true worth.
