I've been sorted out

Over at Naked Villainy, I see that the Maximum Leader has been sorted. He is a Ravenclaw. I, however, am:



Even though I prefer black,
I'm a Gryffindor!

I am eagerly awaiting the arrival of book six of the Chronicles of Harry Potter tomorrow, obstreperous papist interference bedamned. Hopefully it will arrive early, so that I can read it while the wifey is off doing her hillbilly twangy music up in Harper's Ferry.

Which, by the way, would have been a much better location for our nation's capital than the malarial swamp they actually picked.

Hey B, when Miz B. is up there at Harper's Ferry, make sure that she and the band do a nice loooooong singalong version of "John Brown's Body!"

Gryffindor here, whatever the frack that means.

Unfortunately and coincidentally, based on the answers I gave (ones that would have made my mother proud), compared to the other choices available, I'd guess that Gryffindor, in fact, is the homo dorm.

Not that there's anything wrong with that, I guess.

J,
Then the hat's way, way off.

In the books, is the sorting hat ever wrong?

GL, in the books the sorting hat is never "wrong" per se, but sees various types of potential in you and places you in the place where those potentials would develop best.
Roughly:
Hufflepuff: value hard work and integrity as the keys to success. The Presbyterians of the wizard world.
Ravenclaw: value intellect and inquiry. (The "atheletic" comment I made above is based on the fact that Ravenclaw is often in the running for the "Quiddich cup," Quiddich being a form of wizard soccer played on broomsticks.
Gryffindor: value courage and bravery and to a degree loyalty.
Slytherin: value power; success by any means necessary. Not necessarily evil, but cavalier.
