Hey! The first vid ever is up! 🎉
Question: Which house did you get sorted into and what are your thoughts on the sorting system as a whole?

@Angry__Bob-v8i 1 month ago

I am not sure what house I belong into, but I love this video.

I hope they will show more of the other two houses in the upcoming tv show, not just Gryffindor and Slytherin like they did in the movies >:
(Ravenclaw here btw)

Agree 100%!
Can't believe this is your 1st video! Great work ❤

I'm Slytherin but I love being around with Hufflepuffs. They are the best people to be with because they accept you for who you are without any judgement. 🐍💚🦡💛

Yeah... I am Ravenclaw. I absolutely DO have those strengths and weaknesses as a Ravenclaw, tbh.

Hufflepuff is badass even the color black & yellow 🖤💛 🖤💛

Gryffindor, 100%. Every good and bad strength, plus the bad parts, too.

I think you've nailed it dead on! I'm Hufflepuff myself.

I feel like they should of resorted everyone every single year just to make sure they still fit in said house

Gryffindor here. Definitely fits me, I'm more balls than brains 😂
That said, in the real world, I think we need a lot more Hufflepuffs.

Also, I freaking hate Gryffindor colors in official merch. It's burgundy and old stale mustard, or McDonald's colors. Why is it so hard to get it right? Lmao

I think of myself as Ravenclaw, whether the Sorting Hat would see it the same way, idk.
Though I do think a bookshelf that includes languages, classics, computer science and physics is a strong argument. Anyway back to 🎨.
