Today At Work...

...I found I was the only member of my branch who could name all four houses at Hogwarts.

I feel dirty.

How did it come up in conversation?

The branch's staff are currently split into two teams, each one trying to get more sales of financial services products than the other for the week.

I know.

They were trying to decide on team names, and the branch manager suggested Hogawarts houses, which fell flat when they realised that no-one knew what they were. I don't think I've said anything so timidly in my life. Words cannot describe how much I hate Harry Potter.

We ended up with Superheros vs Supervillains. Having to pick a superhero name, I told them The Fury was an obscure comic book reference. It just happened to be my general state of mind at the time.
