Slytherin weren't there to 'break rules to do right.' The were there to break rules if it furthered their own agenda. That agenda may feasibly be good, but very often was not - instead, the self was the focus. The Sorting Hat says as much to Harry - you could get power in Slytherin, or something. Nothing about doing good.

If you want to be pedantic none of the houses are there to do good.

I say "Good" because this is a school.

Harry's Gryffendor parents used their leadership ability to bully and belittle others.

Fairly confident I would end up in ravenclaw anyway. I am an egghead all the way through.

What house boisterous and house devious are up to only concern me when their egos get in the way of other people's lives. I'll take house academic. Better aligns with my interests, and academia is how we get nice things.

Microsoft Word's dictionary contains the word fuckboy, no hyphen.

Anyone ever notice how in Star Trek... anything other than the Star Trek Uniform is typically hideous, ugly, or mysteriously primitive?

---

Also I am starting to love how narrative causality works when it comes to Time Travel plots in videogames

Saw this one where a guy needs a specific time (seems like it needs to be like... within 5 minutes) in order to use his time travel powers (he cannot randomly jump it doesn't work that way... and no it isn't a convoluted reason... His time travel powers need him to have intimate knowledge of a specific event) and suddenly people are able to draw upon the exact times for everything! Even people with eidetic memories pop out or the woodwork.

On the plus side one of these instances was rather clever. A girl you talk to knows the exact time an event happened down to a minute... specifically because she just barely made it to the store too late and it closed before she could get there. So yeah she would know the exact time.

Futuristic! Those colors appeal to people with exotic genes from generations of kinky sex with aliens! The pigments look different in UV! Honest! ;P

I mean people hit me over the head over and over again that Tpol in Enterprise is apperantly supposed to be the sex appeal because she is in a cat suit.

Yet every time I hear that I just have to take one look at that HEDEOUS HIDEOUS (wow, both... work... huh) outfit.

Remember! This is apparently Sexy... Someone dressed in your mother's curtains.

Oh, like the horrid garish colors of the federation uniforms are any better?

I think the intention there was that vulcans are staid, stoic people who have repressed everything-- which is why they eat bland flavorless broth, and totally devoid of spice vegetable dishes, etc.. and that this is why the colors are so bland and flavorless, and the cut is bland and flavorless too. However, because some people cant watch scifi without seeing curvature of the hips, the wardrobe people dressed her like Hillary Clinton's mom.

Why do people find Cat Suits so inherently sexy anyhow? It is just a one piece suit... Feety Pajamas are essentially a cat suit.

and look at T'pol! LOOK AT HER!

Her clothes AFTER she stopped wearing that were more sexual... and yet people kept crying that the curtain catsuit was too sexual.

Even in terms of showing off someone's boobs, hips, and ass it is far from the best unless you somehow give it boob socks.

Everyone sucks at everything. Until they don't. Not sucking is a product of time invested.

Kirk's outfit looks like he took an away mission to the city of Monica-- Looks just like Onan's from Aeon Flux.

Microsoft Word's dictionary contains the word fuckboy, no hyphen.
a fuckboy is a slang term for a primpy, self-obcessed pretty  boy with an attitude problem, a good sense of showmanship but not work ethic, and, usually, a gaggle of minions.  often times there are jokes about his sexuality
