Recently, I was talking to a very very close friend of mine and we ended up having a heavy argument. I felt that she was a typical Hufflepuff, a lot like Phoebe. She was totally outraged and asked why I thought so! I told her that I thought she was just really nice and sweet and that she values hard work, loyalty, tolerance, and fair play (qualities of a Hufflepuff as given in wiki), and she tells nice interesting elaborate anecdotes of her earlier life (and a lot of other reasons too), that she could just fit into the character/House I had suggested. Her immediate response, ”That’s so condescending!! I can be a bitch too you know?!? I could take things light, not work hard, bark at people and lie a lot too!! How dare you judge me to be nice and sweet and all?” and BHAM! She swooped out of my room and went into hers and slammed the door!!! Then… then what? I had to stand outside her room, begging for forgiveness to have called her nice and sweet and assure her that she could be a bitch too if she wanted- Definitely!!! Kids these days!! Humph!! Just don’t know how to take a compliment!
ROFL !!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteIm not a MCP, but only girls do these kind of nakhraas. Seriously !!!!
I once met my friend on chat and started my conversation saying hellllloo (i used a couple of extra l's and o's) ...she immediately replied, why are y saying helllloooo, y didnt u say hi??? and i said its the same thing even on pluto. and then she replied, "dont try to be over friendly with me
and BAHM, she signed off !!! I was laughing like crazy instead of getting offended and I wrote an offline to her, " GO TO HELL, ITS A BETTER PLACE TO ROT " !!!! Im not kidding, this happened to me, last year !
Btw, You made me do this. LOL :

and I acknowledged you too !!
Sova?
ReplyDeletewat friends character am i?
hehe...i dont think many people will take being a "hufflepuff" as a compliment....The song sung by the sorting hat says that while gryffindor chose the bravest and slytherin the most cunning and ravenclaw the most intelligent, kind helga hufflepuff said ill take the rest or something along those lines....so its like those who dont fall under the above qualities will go into hufflepuff as they have nowhr else or something...n even in the first book i think ron or someone says id rather go into hufflepuff rather than slytherin....so its like though the other 3 houses have some definable good qualities hufflepuff is the resort to neone who doesnt have the above qualities or something.... its like the "nice" ppl are put in hufflepuff n thts their only quality n not courage or intelligence or evil genius or something....as in thts her assumption of a person in hufflepuff which is why she got angry probably :p ... evry1 wnts to b in gryffindor trust me :P ...n some wont mind slytherin either im sure :P
ReplyDeleteROFL...shud appreciate ur patience to go stand there and ask for forgiveness..I wouldve laughed my heart out! :P

ReplyDeleteLOL thanks to that post, this post also gets recognition. and it deserves to!
ReplyDeleteany woman who wants to be called a bitch has definitely lost all her marbles lol
but i guess to some extent it stems from the fact that being nice is touted to be an insult... nice = boring ... bitch = interesting. bah! so go figure! :-/
Bummer... People never cease to amaze me. :)
ReplyDeleteAnyway, I hope things have ameliorated since. :)
Peace.
