House Supremacy Wars: A Completely Rational Discussion About Fictional Dormitories

Ah yes, the eternal question that has plagued humanity since someone decided that sorting children based on personality traits at age 11 was a brilliant educational strategy. Which House is objectively superior? Let's examine our options:

Gryffindor - "We're brave!" (Translation: "We have impulse control issues and call it courage")
Slytherin - "We're ambitious!" (Translation: "We're basically corporate middle management with cooler outfits")
Ravenclaw - "We're intelligent!" (Translation: "We're insufferable know-it-alls who correct people's grammar in casual conversation")
Hufflepuff - "We're loyal!" (Translation: "We're the participation trophy of Hogwarts Houses")

Please, defend your House with the same fervor typically reserved for arguing about pineapple on pizza or whether Die Hard is a Christmas movie. Remember: This is the internet, so "friendly debate" is legally defined as "barely contained chaos."

As a Ravenclaw, I am intelligent and creative. I do not correct grammar or spelling as I was born in Paris, France, but raised between Paris with Mother's Family or outside London with Father's Family. Spellings vary. Colour versus Color for example. English is not my native language. I laugh at the idiots attempting to correct me.

People with degrees can still be imbeciles. They think having a degree makes them smarter. That is not true. People building homes are smarter in that endeavor. They provide a service that most people cannot do themselves. Book Smarts only gets you so far. Street Smarts are necessary. Ravenclaws know this. Intelligence is good, but unlike Granger, I prefer to not be a show off. Granger lacks imagination. She is as annoying as a gnat. I do not know everything. I admit it. Ravenclaws know that there are various faucets to being smart. Having manners is another item that goes a long way in life.

Being sorted at 11 is not a wise idea. It tells a young fearful child which box they fit into from the very first evening. Everybody has a bit of each house in their personality. People change from the ages between 11 and 17. It is a fact.

Ravenclaws have the best Common Room. We never tell any students how to get there or how to get in. I will help anyone from any house as long as they are polite and appreciative. We have edifying discussions every evening before bed. We do participate in sports. I do not care for them. We are ambitious, brave, and loyal as well. There are cowardly sneaky disloyal members in every house. Ravenclaws just hide it better.

There are some families who are stuck upon one house only. Their parents tell them that if they don't get into a specific house, then they are disowned or will be killed. That happens in Ravenclaw, too. My father was a Slytherin. Father told me to just relax and let the sorting figure it out. Mother fixed me with a glare after he stepped away. "Ravenclaw or Slytherin. If not, Beauxbatons."
