One thing that always struck me about Slytherins is that they seem 
perfectly friendly to each other. They cheer just as loudly when, during 
the Sorting Ceremony, a new student joins their house.  They always seem to 
form an united front when dealing with any issue (not necessarily a good 
thing considering the issues).

I've always wondered if that was a result of "predator pressure", i.e. 
nobody likes us so we better stick together. In that case the unsavory 
reputation that Slytherin House gets could turn out to be a self-fulfilling 
prophecy.
