Common Misconceptions: All houses have steryotypes. Some think that all Slytherin are evil, but not all are! Hufflepuff has misconceptions too. Many people think that Hufflepuffs are dumb, substandard or useless. But they're not! I guess you could call them multitalented. They've got a bit of Slytherin, Gryffindor and Ravenclaw in them, but with a certain sweetness that only a Hufflepuff could posess. Some would find the sorting hat's "Good Hufflepuff, she took the rest, And taught them all she knew" EXTREMELY OFFENSIVE, but you know, it's the Sorting Hat.
Sorting Hat Ryhme:
These belong in Hufflepuff,
Where they are just and loyal.
Those patient Hufflepuffs are true
and unafraid of toil.
