My son got a talking “Sorting Hat” from the movie Harry Potter for Christmas and of course began immediately to see which “house” everyone in the family would belong to. It seemed that everyone was a Griffyndor leading me to believe the hat was rigged. This left me feeling a little disappointed of course, I mean you have to have some variety or what good is the toy? How silly do the manufacturer’s think kids are, that they won’t get bored with the good guys? So I called my son over and said okay, let’s do me. I’m a huge Harry Potter fan too, having taking my boys to see the movies and read the books right along with them. I settled down, puffed out my chest a little, fully expecting to further increase the Griffyndor ranks when what should come out of the thing? Slytherin! I think I broke it.
